Great house for a large family.
We had a wonderful time with 12 people, 8 adults and 4 children, having ample room. The house is very well appointed and furnished. This is the second time we’ve stayed there and plan to return!

Wonderful home for large families!
Our children and grandchildren came with us and we had wonderful bedrooms for everyone to stay in and plenty of room for everyone to enjoy. We loved the master bedroom which had a separate ice maker and small refrigerator so we could enjoy our coffee first thing in the morning without waking anyone. We would definitely stay here again!$

Fantastic home with great views
The pictures do not do this place justice. Sunrise and Sunsets on the 3rd floor. Golf course and Gulf of Mexico views.

Port Aransas Family Trip
We rented this home for our 3 families with children 5 and under and had a wonderful time! The weather was rainy so we spent quite some time in the house and it was clean and spacious. It also had baby gates at the bottom and top of stairs which was great for our toddlers. It also had Sonos throughout which was a nice bonus. We would definitely rent this house again in the future!

Perfection!!!
The home at 128 Cattail is simply perfection. We were blown away by the design, furnishings, and comfort of the home. We felt like we could simply move in! The views at this lovely estate are amazing, with decks off of most rooms, you are able to have your own private space to relax and enjoy the ocean’s breeze. The kitchen is a chefs dream….all the amenities of a personal home and MORE! The beds are super comfy, linens are just right, and wonderful spaces for kids to bunk. It is a short walk through the beautiful neighborhood to the boardwalk where the beaches are located. We enjoyed the larger-sized heated pool. It was wonderful for parents and children alike. We can’t wait to go back and enjoy this beautiful vacation destination on Port A’s beach!

Long Weekend
This house is Beautiful, Spacious and well thought out. We visited for a 4 day weekend with 4 adults and 2 kids ( 7 years and 2 years). The house is 3 levels but kid friendly. They have baby gates at each stair case and bath tubs off of each bunk room. There is also an elevator to transport all the gear. The living space is on the 3rd (top floor) and is gorgeous. Tall ceilings with two decks on each side. The kitchen is well equipped with two sinks and two dish washers. We truly enjoyed our visit and didn’t want to leave. It ended up raining most of the weekend and we were perfectly happy to stay inside and enjoy the space.
