The ocean breeze flows naturally through this Corpus Christi charmer! Located right on the water, your daily views will consist of swaying palms, gentle waves, and puffy white clouds. While enjoying the sunshine, utilize the home's dock, grilling area, and patio. Close to your stay, discover the Redhead Pond Wildlife Management Area, Gulf Winds Golf Course, Red Dot Pier, and Jumping World. End your daily adventures with a stop at one of the area's popular seafood joints for a delicious bite.

The home's open-concept layout is adorned with a nautical theme. Here, you can relax, stream, cook, and dine with ease. Whip up something tasty in the well-equipped kitchen while enjoying a movie or some music from the living room's large TV.

The home's bedrooms are equally inviting with their bright color palettes, soft linens, private TVs, and central air-conditioning. With creature comforts like office space and a private washer/dryer, your every need is attended to.

As the sun begins to set, head for the balcony where you can watch the orange, yellow, and pink hues meet the water. End your night with a family game night - courtesy of the board game collection.

Nice place
The place is very nice except that the dock lights never worked and we messaged them and couldn’t get a response. Also the place needs fumigation cause there’s a lot of roaches outside and mosquitoes some insects inside. Very good location and enough space for my family of 5.

Close to everything
Easy to get to, fishing from the dock is nice, but if you want better and bigger fish, recommend going to the bridge just down the way. But all in all it was nice to be right down town, close to HEB and a bait and tackle dow the road. Had a fun time.The one thing is dont expect a 5 star interior but still this was one of my better 5 star experiences.

Nice little home that hopefully they make improvements to
The backyard was uncut, the back main door has a loose door handle and we were scared we were going to break it. The door handles need to be tightened down. We killed 3 huge cockroaches, and saw two dead ones when we arrived, property needs to be sprayed for bugs. The tv setup is not hooked up and working in the office area, the master room tv requires a remote control that we were never able to locate. Overall the house smelled like urine. Property has potential to be a great spot for a small family getaway but the property owner should handle the urine smells and the bug problems

Beautiful view but stale house with lots of bugs
We enjoyed the water view and fishing on the pier, but the house needs work. There were not enough outlets. BBQ pit was filthy with black and white stuff caked on it and it wouldn’t lite. No remote for master bedroom found. Front room ceiling fan was broken and wobbled a lot. We saw 6 large roaches and many bugs. The first internet password we were provided was wrong. Carpet and throw rugs were stained and dirty, and need a deep cleaning or replacement. Couches could also use a cleaning. For what we paid for this house, it was not worth the experience we had. Not a house I would rent again in the condition it is in.

Great location Great home!
We rented this house for family weekend at TAMU. Unfortunately we didn’t spend too much time at the house but when we were there it was great! The neighborhood was quiet with a convenient store walking distance. It was mentioned there was a little neighborhood bar walking distance as well but was not completely sure lol…fishing off the deck along with being able to and enjoy the breeze from the upper deck was amazing! Great time would love to go back just to sit and enjoy without having to run around. 😊

Great Amenities but needs pest treatment
All of the positive - kayak, boat dock, outdoor view, multiple decks and even fishing from your own dock. Decent layout of a previously 2 bed 1 bath into a fairly roomy 4 bed 2 bath with open kitchen/living room area. On site equipment is perfect. The only 3 things that bring this place down; some of which are beyond owner’s control, are 1) bad smell when coming in of rotten eggs; blows in with the breeze but also blows away so it’s a gamble; 2) we found out the first night there’s a fairly good amount of roaches of different sizes that should be addressed regularly to keep the property in a clean condition. 3) Some equipment needs to be replaced such as the front bedroom ceiling fan and some closet doors that have the slates falling out. We still had a good time and if it wasn’t for the cockroaches it would have been a great time !
