Great quite place with great neighbors

This property was as described in the ad. It was very clean and well maintained. The views were beautiful. All the neighbors were friendly. I would recommend the place to anyone. I would also highly recommend a great place to eat called. "Texas Traditions" as well as a great fishing guide Jason Reinhardt at capt.rhino@fishingtailsguideservice.com.

Great accommodations with a wonderful view

We had a great father, son, and brother's family fishing trip. The house was very clean and comfortable and the dock behind the house was very useful for fishing and access to our boat. Having a private boat launch near the house was a huge draw. There was plenty of parking for cars and trailers. The neighbors were very friendly and welcoming. Russ, the owner was very helpful with answering my questions and making sure we had a great stay. This trip has been an annual event for us but the first time in this house. We are definitely planning to booking this house again next year.

Saltwater Therapy

We had an opportunity to take a last-minute vacation with our children. Didn't want to travel far, just wanted to stay somewhere we could keep the boat in the water and let the kids throw a cast-net as well as catch some fish off a dock, right out the back yard. All while we could sit on the deck and watch. This place was perfect! Not only did it meet all of our needs, we had an extra bonus with Alexa. Our children thought they were DJ's and we're currently working on their pathetic taste in music, but being able to control the house via Alexa was a perk we didn't see coming. The point is, as a busy family we were able to bond more in a few days through everything from sitting together on a dock to impromptu dance parties with the absolute best views in that area!! Highly recommend! Can't wait to go back!

We own a home here in Port Alto. We always have our friends and family rent this home when we need overflow. The accommodations are perfect and the home is always very clean. We love the fact we can always park our boat and jet skis at the dock and not worry about the wind or tide changing. It’s just overall a great location and very comfortable place to stay!

10 Stars! We had a wonderful stay!

From booking, through arrival and departure, everything went smoothly, but the best part of the trip was the house. The home was recently remodeled with tasteful choices of furniture, appliances, kitchen and bathroom fixtures. Usually when you rent a house, you know to bring enough paper towels, spices, toiletries for your trip and you expect there will not be enough pots or pans to cook a large meal. Not so here, Russ and his wife made sure of the smallest details. Knives were sharp, there were plenty of spices and pots and pans had lids!!! Beds were plentiful and comfortable. There were 6 adults, 1 teen and a 5 year old and we were not bumping into each other. The deck with the glass railing was perfect to sit outside during the day or evening,with the breeze blowing, to take in the view of the bay. Hopefully, Russ will have us back in the fall. It was a little warm to fish or crab, but that didn't deter the fishermen from trying. If you do not enjoy your stay here, then you must not like the coastal life. (the neighbor's are very nice too) Had a wonderful time and will return. Suzanne

About the host

Hosted by Russ

Tracy and I have been married for over 29 yrs and have been coming to this area all of our life. having a teenager involved in sports and school activities has kept us involved and away from the bay as often as we would like. We therefore decided to share our home with friends and folks that would enjoy the coastal water as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This house has an open concept living area great for gathering your friends and family. It also has over sized windows to view the water and bay. The window are hurricane impact resistant which makes them quiet and energy efficient. this helps keep the Air Conditioning working well on those hotter than normal days. With Three large bedrooms, there is room for privacy and room to sleep everyone.

What makes this property unique

Being on first canal facing the bay, the dock has protection from the waves and wind at water level. This is beneficial you plan to bring boats, kayaks or Jetskis with you. They will be well protected from the harsh waves or strong wind. Also the twin underwater fishing lights are unique to us. The red fish and trout swirl in the light at night to feed on the bait. Fish all day and night!
