Texas Court House -- https://www.vrbo.com/162426

NOTE -- Please give us an ACCURATE number of Adults and Children in your group. Our Listing states that we sleep / have beds for 25. That assumes some children in your group. Limit of beds for adults (including older teens) is about 20 including blow up and bottom bunks. If you bring more adults, you may have to provide additional bedding. We have beds for at least 20 (maybe more) that includes top bunks, cots, couches and/or fold-outs for kids.

Our houses are not run by a property management company, but is a family business. We live close by on the Texas Coast and equip our houses with everything we want for when we stay there. No cast off or "hand me down" mattresses. All are good quality for when we and our friends and family stay there.

Whether you are interested in birding, boating, fishing or simply watching the sun set, The Copano Pelican’s Landing has it! The Copano Pelican’s Landing is a 6 bedroom house located on Copano Bay near Rockport, Texas. Copano Bay is known on the Texas Coast to have EXCELLENT fishing. We have caught over 40 fish in one evening off the fishing pier.

This house is not a canal home but a BAY home and fully equipped with EVERYTHING you might need for your stay. You need only bring yourself, food and clothes. We provide everything else including all linens, towels, pans, dishes, etc. There are not 5 cups, glasses and plates here. There is PLENTY of good plate, pans and utensils. If something necessary is missing, let us know. There is a high-quality Pit Boss Grill with Propane, Charcoal and built in Smoker.

We are KID and PET FRIENDLY!!! We have 5 kids of our own and have tried to include all the things to keep the kids entertained.

When you are at The Copano Pelican’s Landing, if feels like you are a million miles from civilization, but you are only 10 minutes to a Super Walmart! You drive through ranch land and then, suddenly, you emerge in a Jewel of a place on a wonderful bay.

The Copano Pelican’s Landing is a luxurious two story house that has two master bedrooms with oversized tiled showers and one with a large soaking tub. Enjoy our Large Flat-Screen TV’s and Spectrum Cable. For the little ones, we have a play set out back.

Right out the back door is Copano Bay and your own 400 foot lighted pier with direct access to the water. The pier has a T-Head at 200 ft. and halfway out with lights and benches as well as a T-Head all the way out at the end. Copano Bay is full of redfish, shark, trout, flounder, gafftops, whiting, croakers, sheepheads and drum. There is no commercial fishing in the Bay so fishing is GOOD! Kayaks/rafts and basic fishing gear provided as well as bright fishing lights on the pier. Don't forget to look for the dolphins!

Bring your boat! There is a boat launch very close by, and you can tie it up to our pier. Also, with your boat, you have easy access to Port Bay, considered by all to have some of the best fishing on the Texas Coast!

For the wildlife enthusiast, there is an abundance of wildlife in the area. You can see deer, raccoon, possum, turkey, rabbit and other wild animals in and around the area. Rockport has several Wildlife areas in and around town.

For the birding enthusiast, this area is teaming with a large variety of bird species including Black-necked Stilts, Ibis, Rosette Spoonbills, Reddish Egrets, Gull and Tern species, Least Turns, Rails and Snipe, wintering Geese, Sandhill Cranes, Brown Pelicans and White-tailed Hawks. You might even see endangered Peregrine Falcons or Wood Storks.

On Lamar Peninsula just across the Copano Bay Causeway you can see wintering Whooping Cranes and the BIG Tree near the shores of St. Charles Bay. There are a number of birding sites within a few miles of the house including Goose Island State Park also on Lamar Peninsula. Go to https://aransaspathways.com/ to see a good list of the birding sites in the area.

Rockport is a short drive away with a nice sandy city beach, museums, shopping, great places to eat (plus a few dives) and antiques. Go to https://www.rockport-fulton.org/51-Things-To-Do for a list of a LOT more things to do and place to see around Rockport!

Port Aransas is also close by for a good day trip to the Gulf of Mexico.

Unfortunately, we do not allow 'Events' such as weddings or other large parties. Gatherings at the house are strictly limited to those guests staying at the house.

Add $250.00 Cleaning Fee to all Rentals

Sadly, VRBO adds their own fees. Can't do anything about that.

Add 15% Tax to all Rentals. Can't fight Uncle Sam.

Great stay for relaxed friends getaway

We loved our stay here. 6 bedrooms (one in a separate building but super close), great layout for chatting (enough chairs so everyone could sit there), great peri access to the water, kayaks, etc. it is at the beach, so sand, waves, and sun should be expected!Rockport is a nice little town with two groceries and plenty of restaurants. We did outdoor stuff (Aransas, Goose Island, Rockport Beach). Saw all kinds of wildlife, including many birds, alligators, and javalina (all in the parks). Owners are super responsive if you have something that needs help. And - pet friendly if your pet is well behaved. Yard is not completely fenced, but our old dog never went out of the fenced area…

Spacious home with beautiful views

We did not receive any communication from the property manager prior to our stay. I had to call and request the access code on the day of our arrival. The property was lovely, spacious and in a great location. However it was a bit musty so we purchased candles and that helped. There were also some plumbing issues that we had to contact the owner about in the master shower; they sent someone out the following day. Overall we enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave.

Great Spring Break

We have stayed at another property that is managed by the same host, the Sunset Bay Escape, and we enjoyed that property so much that we booked it 2 years in a row so when we saw that the same host had obtained another property, we jumped at the chance to stay, and we were not disappointed. This property had everything you could possibly need or want. There was plenty of room for our family and friends and the house was furnished very comfortable, the kitchen was huge with plenty of room for several cooks as we ate most of our meals there. The bathroom and shower in both masters were amazing, so much room to get ready and not have to worry about sharing the sink or mirrors. The Casita was also very spacious and nicely decorated, we did have an issue with the water in the shower, it was not hot or warm enough to get a nice shower, but we contacted the host and they had someone come out the next day to check the water heaters, after that everything was fine. The outside area was very nice, and the long pier was awesome, we enjoyed hours and hours of fishing, and the teenagers used the kayaks and had a blast. We caught a variety of fish, black drum, gafftop catfish, speckled trout, stingrays and of course hardheads, some were keepers, but we decided to release them because no one wanted to clean or cook them. We will definitely stay at this property again and I believe the host gives a little discount for repeat customers.

Home away from home

This is a very beautiful and spacious home just perfect for a big family gathering. Everyone was comfortable with their spaces and the open concept floor plan enabled our family to interact and bonded with each other. The kitchen is huge and 3 or 4 people can prepare food with ease. It was raining and cold during the time we were there but we didn’t let the weather dampen our spirits. We had so much fun and we are already planning our next get-together. Hopefully, we’ll have better weather next time and we’ll be able to successfully catch some fish and crab. Thank you for sharing your home with our family and we would like to come back. We strongly recommend this “home away from home.”

Roomy and comfortable property.

The property had plenty of sleeping options for the entire family. The house was clean and fully equipped with everything you need. Check the garage before heading to Walmart (fishing poles/extra fridge). The extra fridge in the garage was a blessing to a large family. The outside patio, large private deck, and the view, especially of the sunset, were beautiful. Great trip. We will be back.

Dolphins every day!

This house is very spacious and nicely decorated. There is plenty of room for everyone to sleep and be comfortable. The long pier was great for fishing but fortunately and unfortunately dolphins were swimming around every evening. It was amazing to see them so close by but made fishing scarce. My only complaint would be that the floors were dirty and there were big tree roaches that came into the garage but not inside the house. I did inform the owners and they said they’ll address it with the cleaners as well as have pest control come out more frequently. I didn’t notice this in the listing but there are 2 fridges which was great for a big party like ours, staying a whole week. We would definitely rent this place again.

We booked this property for Spring Break to do some fishing and decompress, and while the fishing didn't go our way due to the weather, everything else was wonderful! Lots of room to spread out and watch the waves rolling on Copano Bay. The house had everything we needed and then some! Would absolutely stay here again.
