The Best Little Shorehouse in Texas!

Welcome to The Best Little Shorehouse in Texas in the heart of Port A! Close to everything. 


~ HUGE lot with lots of parking for cars and boats 
~Brand new Private Pool
~No need to spend $$$ on a rental. Free 6-seat Golf cart included.  
~Tucked in a quiet street in Old Town with low traffic.

~Walk to restaurants/shops.  
~Beach is a short 4 min golfcart drive. 
~Well stocked Chef's Kitchen, lots of pots/pans for the cooks in the family.  
~Keyless Entry 
~4 bed rooms (2 master suites with king mattresses, one queen bedroom, and a bunk room with 2 full size mattress). All Rooms have TVs. Open concept den/kitchen with comfy couches and a big screen TV. The bunk room has a comfy couch too and a big screen TV with lots of kid movies and an Xbox game console with games. Huge backyard with 3 levels of decks. A fire pit for s'mores at night. Hammocks for napping under the palm trees. A short 4 min golf cart ride to the beach.  Self check in for guests. Use of our 6 seater golf cart. Lots of parking for cars and boats.  I'm always happy to give advice on fun things to do in Port A or great restaurants I like. Just give me or my husband a call if you have any questions. Christiana 504-458-3515 or Joe 504-451-6061 (he works most nights so if it's late its ok.)  Our house is in the perfect location for a great Port Aransas vacation. One block from Iries (I think the best restaurant in town) and from the main drag, one block from the grocery,  liquor store and souvenir shops. We provide a 6 seater golf cart with a beach parking pass so your car doesn't have to get sandy and being so close to everything means you can walk to many of restaurants and attractions if everyone wants to go in different directions.

Family Vacation
I traveled here to meet my adult children and their families. Plenty of space, and lots of cool spots to gather and have a good time. With all of the grandkids, it was nice to have a pool to ourselves. We had a great time and comfortable stay!

Fun house for kids
House was true to pictures and clean. Little nooks, toys and Xbox kept the kids entertained thru rain. Had a fun layout. Close to the shops but need to drive to the beach. Plenty of room for 11 family members to be comfortable. Things I wish I had known: There is a stagnant pond/canal behind the property that is a breading ground for mosquitos. Propane not provided for the grill. There is construction next door but luckily they were off for the holiday. Overall I would stay here again. Great place.

Great fit for our family
Christina was very prompt in responding and ensuring we had what we needed before our stay. It was a very cute, family- style place. It worked great for us and was very unique in the 3 different levels it has with a bedroom on each level. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought into what others would enjoy and had different activities around the home including those for the kiddos. They decorated the place very nice, the beds were comfortable and the golf cart was a big plus. There were a few things that I noticed, mainly in the back yard, that needed tending to but I brought it to Christina's attention and she seemed grateful for letting her know and stated she would ensure to notify those needed. The bottle of wine and welcome book was a wonderful little bonus to our arrival. Overall, we enjoyed it, the location was great and we will definitely be interested in staying again in the future. Thanks Christina and Joseph and we loved your artwork!

Great place to stay
We rented this property with some friends and our children. The location is very convenient and there was plenty of parking. The house is beautiful with lots of space. Christiana was very responsive and having access to the golf carts was a major plus. Highly recommend staying here.
