Super clean , great location
This place never disappoints, it’s located off the road but yet very quiet. Grounds are well kept, close to the Rockport Beach area and Market days when that takes place. Very peaceful place and never have had an issue.
This rental experience was amazing! We were so surprised and completely overwhelmed with how amazing the property is. It is actually inside of an old historic church building. I didn’t really catch that when I made the rental reservation. We walked in into this amazing space; large, tastefully decorated, and just amazing. You have to see it!there was everything we needed. The kitchen was definitely an upgraded experience as well. Everything was perfect. We enjoyed a lovely two nights and were able to visit Rockport and got lucky with the weather!.
My stay here was awesome. I rented this for my family. When we walked in they were amazed. The features were so modern. It had a nice huge fridge and freezer and a drink cooler.

Reviewer Comments:
Cabin no. 8 is the main part of a converted historic church.. The combined kitchen/dining/living/bed room is enormous and very charming, with lots of original features. The bathroom is luxurious with separate soaker tub and shower. The place is beautifully decorated with luxury furnishings and a very well-equipped kitchen. Note: it’s an urban area. Though generally a quiet area, a row of street lights shines brightly all night long, directly into the main bedroom.
The secret will soon be out ! These cottages are a hidden gem for sure ! Whether traveling alone or with a group they definitely can accommodate your needs and far meet any expectations! This is the 3rd time we stay and each time gets better and better !
This converted chapel to guest house is so unique. Located close to Rockport downtown area and marina, it was fun to walk and ride our bikes all around the area. It is beautiful and was extremely peaceful with everything we needed.
