King bed, softclose cabinets, fancy bathroom mirror
The good: in Aransas Pass, King bed, nice size 2nd bedroom, plenty of outlets, nice, clean, welcoming home. The not so good: only 1 bathroom, noisy neighborhood dogs, neighboring homes pretty close, door entry code trouble first few minutes of arrival, but finally worked. Would we stay again? Sure, but bring our own pillows & run the fan for noise.

Best Equipped House
This house was beautifully decorated, super clean and the best equipped house we have ever rented. The kitchen lacked for nothing. Usually there is something I have to buy, cheese grater or bottle opener, but not here. It had everything. Nice backyard outdoor sitting area. We will stay here again.
