Nice house but needs improvements
Pros: Nice house close to the beach, owners were responsive, lots of space, kitchen is well stocked. Cons: AC does not cool well at all, backyard hammocks need repair and deck is not there like pictured. There was trash underneath a couple beds and in the front yard when we arrived. We ended up leaving a day early due to the rising temp. of the AC even with all of the overhead fans running, a couple standing fans, and the blinds all shut.

We had a very good stay, we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation
Better than some condos because of the single floor layout. The parking was adequate (though we had to park on the front grass or behind the property) and limited cable TV(But we had internet to watch everything) Over all we had a great time and we’d stay there again.

Perfect for mix of friends and family for a weekend of fishing
We really enjoyed our stay! The flexible sleeping arrangements really fit our needs as we were a mix of singles, couples, father-daughter. Communication with the owners was prompt through the system. Everything was clean, modern, etc. The pictures online makes the living/kitchen look smaller than it is; we had plenty of room to have some local family over for dinner with us. We’ll look to book again next time if it’s available. Thanks, Sara and Anthony!

Wonderful Getaway
We really enjoyed meeting up with my brother's family at this location. Port O'Conner is small enough to have a quiet beach, only a short walk down the road, and a good place to relax with friends. The accommodations for 10 was great for fitting both groups. The home had pretty much everything we needed, Thanks!

Best porch swing
Good, small, no frills house. My elderly parents didn’t have to climb stairs as they would have on other elevated houses. This accessibility was key. Couple of items: Not enough lamps. Some outlets seemed dangerous.

Meeting of childhood fishing buddies
My grandparents owed a home in Port O'Connor when I was a child, we went there often with family friends. I meet up with my childhood fishing buddy - we have not seen each other in 35 years. We had a wonderful time.
