Single-story, modern-design cottage with a private fenced-in yard and limestone patio in Port Aransas.
Sleeps 6 · 2 BR · 2 BA · Private fenced yard, fire pit, pet-friendly (2 pets welcome)
This single-story Port Aransas vacation rental is built around a private, fenced-in tropical yard with a limestone patio, outdoor dining, a fire pit, and a grill. Inside, the open-concept living area flows into a full kitchen with an island and wine glasses stocked and ready. Guests consistently note how clean, well-stocked, and right-sized the home is. A private entrance keeps the feel of having the space entirely to yourselves.
Bedrooms
Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms sleep up to 6 guests, making this a practical fit for a family or two couples traveling together. Bed linens, extra pillows and blankets, and closet space are provided in each room.
Outside
The fenced-in yard centers the outdoor experience, with a limestone patio, alfresco dining, and a fire pit for evenings after a day at the beach. An outdoor shower lets you rinse off before heading inside. The secured yard is one of the reasons this home works well for guests traveling with dogs.
The setting
The Ave G beach access is about a 5-minute golf-cart ride away, and a golf cart, bookable through PAVC on the website, is the easiest way to reach the sand and explore the island. The Alister Street shops, restaurants, and bars at the heart of Old Town are roughly a 2-minute drive away. Island dining spans Castaways Seafood and Grill in central Old Town to FINS Grill & Icehouse and Tortuga's Saltwater Grill nearby. Shorty's Place has been on the scene since 1946, about as close to a Port Aransas institution as it gets.
A grounded, well-kept cottage with a private yard, a solid kitchen, and room for the dog. Port Aransas, done right.

We most enjoyed the yard, and the easy access to the main road and Sandfest shuttles. There were some signs of wear (couch is torn, kitchen supplies are broken or scant), but the house overall is nice, quiet and comfortable.
