Our property description is clear that we do not have a dishwasher or garbage disposal. Handwashing of dishes only! Recent heavy rains had rainwater pooling in places, but our septic was not overflowed. We are sorry you felt the need to leave a one-star for these reasons.

Beautiful Home on the Bay

We had a wonderful stay at Bay Haven during Spring Break. The house was immaculate and exactly like shown in the online pictures. The check-in process was easy, and everything went smoothly. Everything in the house was in good working condition and all the beds were very comfortable. The owners were great about checking in to make sure all was well and provide great tips on things to do in the area. If you like fishing the private pier with ample bench seating and lighting will be perfect for all your fishing needs. The location was great being on the open bay and the neighborhood was quiet and relaxing. Next door house has several ducks, doves, and pigeons which are fun to watch. We will certainly come back to Bay Haven next time we are in Rockport.

About the host

Hosted by Cristen & John Culp

Host profile image
We grew up on the Texas Gulf Coast and have always loved visiting TX fishing and beach towns for our leisure time.

We are excited to share Bay Haven with you and your family for your enjoyment!

Why they chose this property

We come from Austin but took time down at the coast as much as possible. Now we live in Rockport full-time! Rockport is a sweet small town with great people and year-round fishing, so it is our happy place.

What makes this property unique

Upper deck spans the whole back side of the house and gives you more than a 180 degree view of the Bay! Watch for dolphins, pelicans and ducks!

220+ft pier has all the fishing amenities available! We will provide fishing guide service recommendations and directions to the closest boat ramps and bait shops.

Rockport events and festivals occur monthly and are minutes away by car!
