Dog friendly vacation rentals in Rockport

*The Blue Pearl*-Kid & dog friendly-Texas Luxury
I love this place and will book again. It’s been several since I’ve vacationed and this was it ! Everything I expected. House was clean and inviting. When we arrived, the air conditioner was on and it was super comfortable in the house. The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed. The bedding was like butter. I don’t even know how to explain it. It was just so comfortable. I literally melted into the bed. I slept like a baby. I haven’t done that in years. I am retired and so is Grandma obviously and we had a great time even though we stayed in the house most of the time while the kids ran around and did activities I couldn’t be happier or host was definitely responsive and accommodating. I really wanted to stay longer, but we couldn’t because he had someone else coming in again thank you Michael for hosting us. We had a great time.

Charming 2/2 in the heart of Rockport
Very well kept place, would recommend to anyone looking to sleep 6 with a comfortable kitchen and living area

Quaint Cottage on Texas Coast
We loved our short stay and will definitely say again when we are back in the area. There were just three of us traveling, and there was plenty of room for all of us to have a great night sleep. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Priv Pool + Patio, Walk to Beach | Wave On Wave
Great location and great house! Professional and responsive management. Exactly as advertised. Would definitely book this house again or another AvantStay property!

Perfect Family Fun | Pool, King Bed+BBQ+Sleeps 6
The place on our week end to the cost was real nice. The bungalow we spent our weekend was nice, easy to get to and . back. We would stay there again.

Pelican Cottage
My sister and I enjoyed staying at Pelican Cottage. It had everything we needed. It was centrally located and close to the water. We would stay there again.

Studio Condo With Bay View!
Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay. We felt right at home. Your place was not only cozy and beautifully kept, but it also had everything I needed to relax and unwind. You’ve created a truly welcoming space, and I really appreciated all the thoughtful touches. One of the highlights of my time there was definitely the chance to go fishing. Being so close to the water made it incredibly easy to enjoy early morning and late afternoon trips—it was peaceful, refreshing, and exactly what we needed to disconnect for a bit. The location was ideal as well. Having shops, restaurants, and everything else so close by made the trip convenient. Thank you again for your kind hospitality. I’m already looking forward to the next visit.

The Church Street Cottage (pet friendly)
Came for a weekend of fishing. Matt & Melanie's place was perfect. Our dog, Leo, loved it as much as we did. Felt right at home as soon as we walked in. Our boat fit perfectly in the driveway. Very quiet location. Will definitely stay here again. Thank you, M & M for having such a nice place & offering it up to others!
Vacation rentals with pools in Rockport

*Pet Friendly* Waterview Studio Condo! W/ 2 Pools!
My mom's family comes to Rockport every year for a family reunion. Devin’s condo was the perfect place for my mom and I!

Beautiful 2nd Floor Studio Condo -Pool, Bay View!
I did think that it had bay view from the balcony based on photos. However you can see water from front. The back patio is view of trees that had over 20 squirrels playing and were so relaxing to watch. The condo was clean and very comfy! The pools were barely used which was super relaxing. We watched the sunrise in on the bay with mimosas just short walk across street. This was a much needed relaxing weekend getaway for us! We had no issues and never had to reach out to host for anything! Thank you so much!

Pool, Hot tub, Waterfront, Romantic, Kitchen, Pier
The condo was spacious, clean & nicely appointed with 2 coffee pots for drip & individual cups & even had coffee, creamer & sugar in the full kitchen. The decor was nice with a beach theme. The views were magnificent with beautiful sunrises that were perfect for pictures from the large balcony that over looked the water front. The long pier was perfect for fishing & more views & picture opportunities. The sofa bed was surprisingly, very comfortable. The condo staff were welcoming, friendly & helpful. Rockport has some uniques shops to browse & we found some delicious restaurants thanks to the info that host provided in the condo. Excellent vacation & thanks to the host

Pristine Waterfront Condo! Boat dock on back deck!
Only stayed a couple of nights…Darrell was very accommodating and condo was very clean and well stocked with cooking and serving necessities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will consider booking again.

Private Pool•Hot Tub•2 Separate houses!
Beautiful home with unique quarters for an amazing stay. The covered pool was great to swim and cool off in when it was the hottest point in the day. Plenty of space for family get togethers with a grill to have a nice cookout. Would definitely recommend booking this home for your next coastal vacation!

Coastal Cottage Retreat
This is our 4th annual summer trip with our kids and grand kids and never disappoints! Hosts was prompt, and very helpful. Her cottage was very spacious, clean and comfy. Can’t wait to book again for next year. ❤️❤️

Bay Views - Private Pool - 2 Blocks to Water!
I can not say enough good things about this home. The location was close enough to so many activities, yet just the right distance away to enjoy the peace of the area and the ocean in view. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe as neighbors waved as the they frequently walked. The home itself is beautiful and set up great. We were able to enjoy family time not only around the pool, but in the multiple seating areas outside, as well as meals around the dining table inside. The home was extremely clean and anything we needed was always available upon arrival. Millie and David communicated quickly and were very helpful throughout the duration of the stay. We will recommend this home to anyone, and hope to return to it soon!

Bayview Bungalow 3
This a fantastic, private place right on the Estes Flats. There's ample parking right at the door, and an easy place to launch a kayak a short distance away. The bed was soft and comfortable, the refrigerator was cold, and the place was very clean. I enjoyed my stay here and look forward to returning for future fishing trips.

Judy was great! Communication was great. She went out of her way to find some dog friendly restaurants and beaches nearby. We had plenty of room with two people and a doggo. Very close to food, beach, stores. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay close to the beach!!!

Just blocks from beach! Pet friendly!
This is a great place to stay!! My husband and I de use to getaway from the city at the very last minute during the weekend and we lived the whole experience of feeling right at home while at the beach!! Thank you Chris!

The Lavender Cradle
We arrived it was a secluded area did pass it for a second but we found it. I did have to message to get the code to be able to check in for the day. He was very responsive, communicative, and always got back to me. The only problem we had is the bedroom, felt very warmer than the rest of the house other than that it was stocked with pots and pans, silverware plates, and had a full refrigerator for you to bring your food to stock.

Entire house - The Salty Flamingo at Little Bay!
Christye and Rick are super friendly and they go above and beyond w their rental! We loved the house and the beds are super comfy for a great night’s rest. Rick recommended excellent restaurants to try, which we did, go eat at 2 Girl Burger… best burgers in Texas! The beach is top notch and super clean! We really enjoyed our time here, you will too!

Your guide to Rockport
Introduction
Perched at the tip of a peninsula jutting into Aransas Bay, the laidback coastal getaway of Rockport has been loved by artists and beachgoers for decades. In the quaint downtown area, eclectic galleries and studios stand beside historic buildings such as old-school motor courts, the Fulton Mansion State Historic Site, and the town’s original one-room schoolhouse.
For many, Rockport’s charms lie in its natural surroundings. There are miles of smooth, sandy beaches to enjoy, and nearby San Jose Island is a popular beachcombing and shelling spot. The many bays, canals, and mangrove-lined channels around Rockport have calm, shallow waters that are good for kayaking. Parklands here protect massive, windswept live oak trees, including the 44-foot-tall, thousand-year-old Big Tree in Goose Island State Park. Rockport is also a birding destination, with 10 sites on the Great Texas Birding Trail.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Rockport
Spring and fall are the best times of the year to stay in one of Rockport’s vacation rentals, thanks to sunny days and temperatures averaging around 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Summers here are hot, with temperatures climbing into the mid-90s and humid, sometimes muggy weather. You can expect isolated rainy days and a slight risk of hurricanes from June through November when storms brew in the Gulf, but the skies usually clear quickly. Winters in Rockport are mild, dry, and warm, with temperatures in the mid-70s. And while the sun-seeking crowds mostly disperse at this time of year, it is a popular season for birdwatchers, who come for the migratory whooping cranes.
Top things to do in Rockport
Aransas Wildlife Refuge
The 115,000-acre Aransas Wildlife Refuge is just over an hour outside of town, but it’s well worth the trip, especially for birders. More than 400 bird species live here for all or part of the year. Visit between October and April for a chance to encounter the only natural wild flock of whooping cranes, which nests in Canada and winters here. The refuge is also home to white-tailed deer, javelinas, American alligators, and armadillos. Drive the 16-mile paved road through the park, climb the observation tower, or stroll the boardwalk that runs through a salt marsh and out to the coast. You can also visit the whooping cranes by boat; tours leave from Fulton Harbor.
Rockport Beach Park
The mile-long Rockport Beach Park in the middle of town features 65 covered picnic sites, playgrounds, a natural saltwater pool, boat launching ramps, and a public fishing pier. The beach itself was the first in Texas to be named a Blue Waves Beach, a designation that recognizes clean, environmentally friendly beaches. The breezy spot is also a favorite for windsurfers and kite-flyers.
Rockport Center for the Arts
In 1969, a group of like-minded local artists formed the Rockport Art Association, and, in 1983, the collective acquired the beautiful, historic Victorian building that now houses the Rockport Center for the Arts. The center hosts free exhibitions by local and international artists and holds classes and workshops. Be sure to wander through the outdoor sculpture garden.
