About this property

Fish - Relax - Repeat! Waterfront Retreat with Private Pier in Rockport, TX

Welcome to The Redfish Retreat — a waterfront haven designed for anglers and adventure-seekers alike. Nestled on the west shore of Copano Bay, this bayfront escape puts you steps from the water with direct access to your own private, lighted fishing pier complete with an underwater green light to reel in redfish, trout, and flounder day or night.

Whether you're casting lines at sunrise, birdwatching along the shoreline, or spotting dolphins from the deck, this home delivers an authentic Gulf Coast experience. Bring your kayak and launch right from the yard, or explore the nearby Aransas Wildlife Refuge and vibrant downtown Rockport — just minutes away for dining, beach access, and local charm.

After a day on the water, unwind in the covered outdoor seating area with a picnic table and shaded lounging space, or take in panoramic sunset views from the expansive second-story deck. With covered parking and unbeatable access to the bay, The Redfish Retreat is your basecamp for unforgettable fishing trips and coastal exploration.

The host was extremely accommodating, plus very helpful with a lot of useful information to my fishing questions. The house was clean, well-kept and had everything we needed, along with great water pressure! Sunsets on the pier were magical & fishing was successful…even saw a dolphin and caught a little sting ray who we returned to the ocean. Would love to stay again!Thanks for a great vacation.

We had a great time, the Redfish Retreat was perfect for us. The location on Copano Bay was quiet, peaceful and beautiful. The house was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the dolphins in the morning and the sunset in the evening.Our hosts were quick to respond to any questions that we had.

Great property! Check-in was super simple, host was amazing and very responsive. This inside of this house was open and perfectly spacious, kitchen was well stocked, large dining table with a great view of the bay. Outdoor areas were amazing, the deck, the private pier, and sunsets at Copano Bay…WOW! We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Rockport.

The house was great! Had everything we needed from cookware to linens. Perfect location right on Copano Bay. The lighted pier was great, although we weren’t able to fish because it was way too windy. We saw a great sunset one evening and we saw a porpoise swimming not far from the end of the pier one afternoon. Definitely a place we’d like to stay again!

Great Place

We had an excellent stay. We caught several keeper trout, a keeper red drum, and a keeper black drum off the dock at the house. For fishing in July, that is really impressive! (It was also way better than we did the one day we drove to the Port A jetty.)

Valentine weekend getaway

This house is well taken care of. We stayed for 5 days. Weather wasn’t the best but still enjoyed fishing from the pier. The house is clean and very comfortable. We would recommend it to anyone. Definitely would like to go back.

This waterfront retreat was amazing and the hosts were too! From the moment we booked hosts were very responsive and had several recommendations that were outstanding. They were friendly, helpful, and ideal hosts. The property was perfect for the three of us, with plenty of living space, nice beds, bathrooms, and kitchen. We were down to see the Whooping Cranes. We plan to visit again when we can fish and see some more birds. While sitting on the end of the pier we saw a pod of dolphins playing just off the pier. Easy entry instructions, great hosts, and great property.We highly recommend this property and these hosts!

Best Fishing and Sunsets

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Redfish Retreat definitely did not disappoint. We enjoyed our stay and would go back again. Only thing that I would recommend is maybe adding tv’s in bedroom. Other than that this is a little piece of heaven.

About the host

Hosted by Sommer and Zack Hruska

Host profile image
We are a family of 4 from central Texas. We get down to Copano Bay as much as we can, but want to share this special place when we can't be there! We learned how to fish at an early age and love the #saltlife. We want you to feel welcome and at home at Redfish Retreat!

Why they chose this property

We started out renting Redfish Retreat from a friend. The first time we went down there, we fell in love! The neighborhood is quiet and everyone looks out for one another. After that first stay, I told my friend - 'If you ever think of selling this place, I want first try to buy!' That opportunity came in 2024. We were able to purchase Redfish Retreat and call it our own!

What makes this property unique

Redfish Retreat is very well loved. It holds a lot of great memories and good energy. The sunsets are like no other! The fishing is some of the best on the Texas Coast. When you come to Redfish Retreat you really are able to relax and enjoy the saltlife. It's a perfect place for couples or families. We are pretty flexible with the number of guests when kiddos are involved...they can sleep on the floor and not give a bad review! lol!
