Living On Island Time #2 - Cozy Coastal Cottages With A Whole Lot Of Charm!
SHORE IS NICE
Shore is Nice captures the very reason so many of us flock to this area. This recently remodeled cottage is now available for your vacation rental getaway. This perfectly appointed cottage provides all the comforts of home. The open floor plan has a queen sized bed, full sized sleeper sofa, and extra linens. We have filled the cottage with memories and mementoes from the shore. The cottage is centrally located close to all the local activities. The beach is less than 5 minutes by car. Just steps from the cottage’s front porch are some of the finest restaurants on the water where you are sure to agree…the shore is nice!
Note: This cottage is not big enough for more than 2 adults. It will work for 2 adults and 1-2 kids (under 12) but it will be tight quarters.

The property was clean, neat and tidy. We were looking for something small for my boyfriend and myself and one 9 year old and this met our needs. The main bed mattress could use some updating and thicker curtains. The morning light comes beaming in through the thin curtains they had making hard to sleep in a bit. With fold out couch open it takes up the entire room with a small walk way out the door. I definitely would not say 2 min walk to Fulton pier from front door. This was our main reason of staying. Thought you could literally see the pier from your front door. It rained most time we visited and pier was prob a short few minute drive. But all the stores are short drive near. No laundry machines in this rental. This was a big down fall for us . Over all not a bad stay. Place is more for couple.
We enjoyed our visit. Place meet our expectations, close to town, nice yard and Gazebo and deck
Host was quick to respond to any questions or request.
Plenty of hot water, kitchen had good supply of cooking necessities
Highly recommend this place
Very old very smalll they changed a extra 200 for a mark on the walll when we moved in it was marks all over the place. It was not worth our time and money .
The only concern was plastic cover on the mattress that made lots of noise when you moved in the bed. To me it looked like the plastic that came on the mattress when it was shipped. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay at the cabin.
The cottage was cute and looked just like we expected. I wish I had read the previous reviews about it being too tight for trailer parking as we brought our skiff. The most important thing I missed in previous reviews was the LOUD squeaky bed. Every time we rolled over we woke each other up. Did not make for a restful nights sleep. Other than that, it accommodated us fine. Would be great if the party lights on the gazebo were fixed, the overhead light was to much.

Convenient & easy access close to some restaurants
The location is great- stores, beach, fuel all right there. The cabin is easy to access with VRBO instructions. Comfy bed, plenty of linens and all the things you’d need in the kitchen. We did need to kill two giant roaches, but I really don’t think this was a cleanliness issue. I think that is more of a gulf coast issue. Have fun in this cute beach cabin and it’s nearby amenities
My husband and I had a nice 4-night stay at this property, July 20-24. Cute little cottage with full kitchen. Everything we needed was supplied. Keyless entry to the cottage was nice. Just a few things that could be improved. Bed was comfortable but very noisy..every time one of us moved or turned over during the night, we woke up the other one. Also found 2 roaches--one dead, one alive--during our stay. We know it's hard to keep beach houses totally bug-free, so we didn't care too much about that. A missing slat from the mini-blinds on the front door gave a less than totally private feel. So we stuffed paper towels in it to take care of that little problem. On day 2 or 3 the bathroom sink started to drain VERY slowly. That was probably the most annoying thing we encountered. We both love the area. Came away with a good impression of the Rockport marina area. We love the Corpus area and have been there several times so we wanted to check out the Rockport area and were not disappointed. However, we were disappointed that the beaches along Mustang Island were closed to vehicles due to COVID-19. So we had to walk close to a mile to the beach from where we parked and were unable to take our big cooler and umbrella. Ended up buying a foldable cart to haul everything the second time we went to the beach. All in all a good visit.

Not bad
Overall stay was pretty good. As in the previous reviews, the bathroom is quite small however that’s not where we spent our time. We did notice the toilet leaked and there were several bugs in the house. May need to exterminate. Pillows on the couch need to be replaced as they looked old and not very clean. Overall we did not spend a lot of time in the house.

Property was in walking distance of festival and other activities
Cute little cottage but the bathroom and bed was disappointing. The bathroom... The toilet (tiny), sink and shower stall (probably 30" X 30") are for little people. It's a small cottage and that's okay but I'm not sure how the bathroom could accommodate larger size people. The bed... way too soft and it made so much noise when you turned over that you'd wake up (we did not sleep well at all). Overall the cottage was nice... good kitchen, grill, a/c, and in a great location but something as simple as a good bed would have made our stay much more enjoyable.

Great Fishing Accomondations
With a full kitchen, the cottages are great place to stay for a fishing trip. With down town Fulton restaurants within walking distance, it is a safe place to be after a day of beer drinking and fishing in the hot sun.
It could be improved if it had a soap tray in the shower. The bathrooms are small but adequate.
