There was no cover on an electric outlet on the wall of bed that my younge daughter could have hurt herself badly with . Could not walk in the house barefoot due to not being able to prevent tracking stickers through the house . Did have good fishing at dock and good view .

Beautiful view, private pier a few steps away. Very quiet on a one-way street, located in a friendly neighborhood where people walk their dogs and ride their bikes and say hello when they pass you. Less than 10 minutes to an area of Rockport that has several places to eat, both local establishments and chain restaurants as well. The house has window, air conditioners, but we enjoy the background noise because we were both raised at a time when we used box fans in the summer to keep cooler rather than air conditioning. The house was clean, and we felt safe and secure there. Not fancy, but well worth the price.

Fishing Trip

Check in was super easy and the house is very close to the water! The bed is comfy, that’s big for us. There were people in the main house so we shared the pier, it’s private to the house but if someone is in the main house you share it. It does have an older feeling but it is cute. The kitchen did have everything we needed and was stocked well.

Wood bathroom floor slats were buckled and not able to close bathroom door, several window shades not working and had to be rolled up by hand, AC unit in front room does not provide adequate cooling. Note this was my second stay at Joy’s cottage this year. The location is great and we love the pier.

Fabulous location, house needs work

The location is perfect. The dock is perfect, the water super clear, it's close to everything. The house is a historic gem: it has withstood so many hurricanes. It's really sad to see it in such a state of disrepair. For example, there is an obious leak under the shower that is bowing the wood (original wood floor). A lot of things are old and about to break. But overall, we had a really good stay. I would still recommend this place, but adjust expectations.

Cute cottage with beautiful views and dock. Stayed as a small family with two young children who loved the front patio/porch. Very close to shops, beach, and ferry but far enough that you can enjoy the sound of nothing but waves.

Very nice place

We travel to Rockport for the first time just to have a couple of days of relaxing, and this house was just the right place. We did enjoy the deck. It has window units, not central AC, and ceiling fans in every room, however, if the noise bothers you, the window unit in the main bedroom is noisy. Noise does not bother me

Joy Cottage on Water Street

We loved the location which is less than 100 feet from the water, where we could see many birds and dolphins. The cottage was fully furnished and photos are accurate. We had a couple of minor issues, taken care of quickly.
