The location and property was perfect for our activities. We go to Port Aransas to fish the jetties and some of the piers, so this place was perfect.

The cottage was lovely and very clean, it was as described. However, there was a day they shut the gas off due to a gas leak, and we did not receive notice when it was turned off, when to expect it to be back on, or when they did turn it back on. So in the respect of communication, it was poor. That’s really the only complaint I have otherwise everything was great! Oh yes, one more thing. They said they sent me the code to the door, but I did not receive it. I had to call.
