Welcome to the 35th Annual Rockport-Fulton HummerBird Celebration!
PIRATE COVE COTTAGE
Outside paint being scraped for caulking & painting. Vacation cabin. No claim it’s a modern condo.
Simple but clean 50s style weekend cabin. Cottage is small & compact with excellent location & great setup for inexpensive extended family, person, or couple wanting privacy. Although UNDERGOING some repairs, comfortable, nice & pet friendly. Driveway will accommodate a boat.
Full facilities include WiFi for an affordable short-term getaway. The setup is for a family or extended family, or close knit group. A one time cleaning fee is added to each booking.
The main living space is arranged in an open Hotel-suite layout with one full bed in the main living room, a twin size bunk bed in the back room & 2 additional twin fold up beds can be set up in the back or main room as needed. There is a twin bed in the front sun room & a Graco Pack N Play baby bed that can be set up on request. The front sun room is excellent for baby naps & for mom if necessary. Bring own baby sheets & blankets at this time. Great value & convenience.
622 South Live Oak Street is an open-plan cottage with one bathroom in the charming "Heritage District" neighborhood just minutes walking distance from quaint old downtown Rockport with art galleries & places to eat, the city beach, the Navigation Marina district & a nearby city fishing pier that is lit at night. Fishing pier is right on market street & a straight 2 minutes brisk walk to the waterfront.
The cottage front entrance opens onto the small front sun room with comfortable seating on one side & bed on other that is separated from the rest of the house by a glass paneled door for some privacy.
The front patio is presently under renovation, but there is a great backyard patio with a stainless steel gas barbecue & a 2nd wood burning barbecue adjacent to the large backyard wooden deck which has low wrought iron table, & 3 comfortable lawn chairs to relax outside..
We love to sit outside & see the green tailed fire flies that are surprisingly ugly up close but create a magical moving lights display when in season with a lime green luminescence under the clear stary nights. Rockport offers a peace with a real relaxing silence at night & free of background noise during the day.

The stand alone cabinet doubles as our supplies storage center & has 2 large lower draws available for our quests' clothes & belongings & storage for electric blankets.
We have a pet friendly fenced back yard.
Updated traditional "batch" type ( New Zealand Kiwi jargon) beach cottage. All electric with window AC & 1 heat window unit & smaller unit in front room with remote. Stackable LG washing machine & drier combination in laundry area. Laundry soap is provided & the washer/dryer combo is easy to use. All done by us as a work of love in the tradition of the Heritage District batches which are fast disappearing. Its quaint but cute, its old but clean & rebuilt pirate tough & strong. Some cracks here & there still remain but ongoing improvements make the cabin better & better each year. Its proven Hurricane Harvey tough. We love providing this rustic inexpensive getaway experience for our guests.
There is just a 2 minute walk to the City fishing pier that is lit at night & 3-5 minute drive to the free dog beach before the entrance to the City beach. Its best to buy a yearly pass car sticker to the city beach. The city beach has an excellent salt water pond for toddlers on the far left.
There are nice nearby restaurants within walking distance & with a short drive along the waterfront there is an HEB, Walmart, Walgreens, several fast food franchises & an ACE hardware. Just turn right on Market from Live Oak, left at downtown & drive through town & along the coast. Mac's barbeque is on the corner with Market. The Country Man's Country Club is open for business again which we highly recommend. (Your restaurant suggestions & updates are very welcome). After you make your reservation, we text instructions & house rules with further information about Pirate Cove Cottage & what we provide.
Bring your boat for fishing, or canoe, or bikes for relaxing rides or walks along the waterfront on Water Street just 2 blocks away. Rent a kayak or golf cart. Long graveled driveway that easily accommodates a boat & truck or several vehicles.
