Don’t think twice!
This well-appointed cottage was perfection for our family of four. Communication between us and the owners exceeded any expectations we had and truly every need was met. Absolutely worth mentioning is the remarkably cold A/C, an absolute must for our July stay. The location is is wonderful, an easy drive to the beach, shopping, dining, everything. We’ll plan to add this gem to our short list of favorite places to stay in Rockport. Exceptional in every way.

Tranquil escape
This little place is a hidden gem. It has everything you need to just stay in, but is centrally located to everything around Rockport/Fulton as well. The interior is wonderfully updated and the back yard is just perfect with the plunge pool and so secluded.

Perfect weekend in Rockport
The house, yard, and pool were perfect for our getaway for July 4th! The house is fully updated, clean, and had beautiful furniture and finishes. The yard was in full bloom and so peaceful and lovely, and the pool was a perfect place to relax and float. The house is SO close to everything...dining, pier, beach. The hosts were AMAZING and very attentive...they truly went above and beyond to make our 4th of July experience EXTRA special! Thank you Mark and Denise for a wonderful stay! We look forward to coming back!

We recently spent 3 nights in this adorable home. We easily rate this home 5 stars on every category. Clean, comfy, furniture and decor placed for total relaxation. The bed is amazing. Kitchen is stocked with all you need. The pool is clean and cool and loved hanging out. The yard is the cherry on top...beautiful! The best part is Mark and Denise Eshelman providing the best service and truly caring if you are enjoying their home!

Garden House in Rockport/Fulton
Mark and Denise are very nice, accommodating hosts, everything was absolutely perfect for a much needed break away from big city and work, life. Our hosts attends to any needs that you may have, good recommendations and just overall a great hosts. You will love the quiet days in the lush garden with a pool, it is a quick walk to restaurants, the water and short drive to all that the area offers for fun and returning back to the garden house was blissful everyday. Comfy bed/mattress, great shower, fully equipped kitchen, great decorations, a nice fireplace and we did use the new Weber grill. Thanks Mark and Denise, I enjoyed meeting you and we look forward to returning back to the Gardenhouse to relax and visit with you! Ron and Julie L.
