Get your fill of bayfront living in style at this bright and modern coastal home perched on calm waters. As soon as the sun comes up, step out to the furnished patio, breathe in the salty breeze, and sip a cup of coffee as you plan a full day of fun. You can easily venture into the hustle and bustle of the city, yet you may find it hard to leave the heated private pool, providing the perfect place to take a quick dip or tan on balmy summer days.
When everyone has had their fill of vitamin D, head inside and let the fun continue into the evening with movie nights in the living area. The soaring ceilings, spiral staircase, and shiplap accents give this space an airy feel that is filled with natural light from sunup to sundown.

Perfect Stay in Rockport!
We had a great time during our stay! The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The private pool was super clean and perfect for hanging out, and the community pool was just as nice. We loved the walking paths, the fishing pier, and all the wild deer we saw around the property — such a cool surprise! The views were amazing, and Vacasa stayed in touch the entire time, making everything smooth and easy. Highly recommend this place — we’d definitely come back!

We‘ll Be Back!
Our family has been coming to Rockport for years. This is by far one of the nicest houses we have stayed in during our trips. We have preferred booking through Vacasa because of the extra details and amenities they provide, which have a nice impact to the stay.
We truly felt at home! Some of the nice features included a private pool, beautiful views, comfortable back porch, large ice maker, and a plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, made our Mother’s Day celebration even more memorable. The table was also perfect for family game night. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable time.
