About this property
Pet-Friendly, Lakeside Home at Cinnamon Shore w/ Access to Pools & More
Situated on scenic Lake Colby at Cinnamon Shore, Happy Kat Cottage II is pet-friendly and unique to Port Aransas. Its luxurious lake views, rustic-chic design, high-ceilings, custom furnishings, and luxurious views make it very worthy of your next vacation. Plus, you’ll be close to golf cart accessible dune crossovers that access the beach! Enjoy all this lakeside home has to offer, including four, large, covered decks: two on the first floor and two on the second floor.
AMENITIES: At North, Resort-style amenities include three lavish pools, two scenic lakes, a fishing dock, fire pits, a fitness center, private dune crossovers, lawn games, a pirate ship playscape, and more! Enjoy on-site restaurants such as a Mediterranean bistro and a pizzeria, a coffee shop and café, while the Town Center hosts events, activities, and live music in peak season and on holiday weekends.
MAIN LIVING SPACE: Comfortable and stylish, the second-floor main living area has views of the lake from its many windows. It combines living room, dining area and kitchen in a coastal light-filled space with white-washed paneled walls and soaring ceilings, and its opens onto the upper deck with those stunning lake views!
The handsome kitchen, with an island and everything you need, overlooks the cozy family room and flows into the dining area, where a long table with bench seating sits up to at least 10. Another nook near the kitchen offers a second gathering area with a circle of wingback chairs where smaller groups can read or visit.
SLEEPING QUARTERS: Each bedroom becomes a haven, with white-washed shiplap walls and stylish linens, and some have great lake views! The first floor offers a guest room with king-size bed and ensuite bath, a guest room with a queen-size bed and ensuite bath, while a big, blue barn door slides open to reveal a bunk room with a twin bunk over full bed and a queen-size bed. The second-floor offers stylish suite with king-size bed, access to the upper covered porch, and a bathroom with double vanities.
GREAT FEATURES: A broad hallway on the first floor opens to the back, column-lined porch, that’s just steps from the lake! A drop zone offers a spot to stash beach gear and hand your sun hat. The home is equipped with five flat screen TVs, a home computer and a printer/scanner.
You’ll be close to community pools, the fitness center, Lisabella's Bistro, Dylan’s Coal-Oven Pizzeria and much more. Stay in Happy Kat II for ultimate lakeside retreat in a beachside community you’ll love.
