This house was great! The kitchen was amazingly stocked. It had small pots, large pots, a cookie sheet, serving bowls, every thing we needed to make Hopping John for New Year! I can't think of anything derogatory. I just wished it was warmer so we could have enjoyed the screened porch more.

This house is conveniently located in Rockport, yet far enough out of main traffic areas to allow peaceful time hanging out on screened in porch. Very clean and the management checked in often to insure our stay went well.

House was great! Perfect location- close to town and the beach. Screened front porch was just the spot for my grandson to drive his cars. Everything was just like the pictures and everything worked. Hose on the car port great for cleaning sand off beach chairs, toys and feet. We would definitely stay there again.

Absolutely wonderful property! Great location, clean, private and had everything we needed to make our week long vacation memorable.

Turtle's Nest is a great place! Very comfortable living area and fully stocked kitchen. Fridge has an ice maker which was very convenient. Good sized bedrooms and comfortable beds. Bathrooms are nice sized as well. We loved the location and hope to come back again. The only thing we wish we had more of: kitchen towels. Everything else was great. Thanks for letting us stay and we'd love to book again.

Everything was great. Everything we needed was available. Beds were very comfortable. My only problem with this place was that there was a lot of dog hair that collected on our socks the first few days.

Charming and quiet

Super cute home with screened in porch. The neighborhood is quite and you are able to walk along the ocean (although these are mostly private properties). The location is not too far from Rockport Beach/town. It is also just a short drive to the Port A ferry and several other beaches, if you don't want to stay in Rockport.
