enjoyed our stay and the hot tub ... only complaint is the back yard grass needed tending to... the grass was 7-9 inches high that the mosquitoes loved .. swarmed us when we got out of hot tub ... all grass outside fence was cut .. the small area would only take 10 minutes to cut

Very beautiful and comfortable get away, certainly was better than any motel, with accommodations like home. We loved the artwork displyed on the walls and the mural. Plus reading and learning of the history of this art studio. Rockport's hummingbird festival and birding area along the gulf is a must see.

Nice stay

My kids and I had a nice stay. Only complaint is that the hot tub wouldn’t heat up. Kept it on for a few hours and it never went above 95 degrees (which was the baseline temp anyway).

Great little spot!

It's a great little spot. The back yard needs a taller fence if you feel like skinny dipping in the hot tub. Just FYI.
