Aransas Channel Dock & Fishing Pier on Harbor Island
Enjoy our newly constructed cottage and patio that faces beautiful Redfish Bay and South Bay. Bay Dock Cottage has a patio deck, a boat dock, a 100’ fishing pier with lights, a patio and lots of parking. Our two bedroom 2 1/2 bath house sits next to the 14’ deep Aransas Channel. Shrimp boats and fishing boats use this waterway to navigate local bays as they make their way to and from the Gulf of America through the jetties. This is a family friendly property. We are located 3 miles east of Conn-Brown Harbor and 3 miles west of the Port A Ferry. Our pin drop on the VRBO map is accurate.

We had the best time staying at this beautiful waterfront home in Aransas Pass! The house was spotless, cozy, and had every amenity we could have needed. The peaceful water views and relaxing outdoor space made it extra special, and the beds were incredibly comfortable.The dock was absolutely perfect for fishing — with running water, a fish cleaning area, comfortable seating, and lights for night fishing, it truly made the whole experience unforgettable. You can tell the owners care about every detail.This was one of our favorite getaways, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay at bay dock cottage. The views were amazing. We fished everyday and enjoyed catching plenty of fish. Dolphins swam by several times every day. If you are looking for a place not too far from the beach but prefer a little quieter vibe, this place is definitely it.
What a beautiful location and a perfect stay! We appreciated the access to good fishing and the daily dolphin watching was an unexpected treat. The house was clean and well appointed, the hosts having thought of everything. Thank you so much!
Easily the most comfortable stay in the area for fishermen and their families. If this property isnt available we simply just dont come down! Must stay!
Location is great, halfway between the mainland and the island, bait shop next door. House is very clean and accomodating for everyone. Had a great time in the short time we were there due to the storm. Will definately be back.
We completely enjoyed our stay. Not only were the hosts welcoming and charming, but the property was clean, well furnished and beautifully decorated. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.
We had an amazing time staying at this property over Labor Day weekend. It is a great location with easy access to Port Aransas, Corpus Christi, and Rockport. The fishing was fantastic as we caught speckled trout, sand trout, and black drum. Sonny was a great host and we can’t wait to come back again.
This was by far, one of the most beautiful and cleanest rentals we have ever rented. The amenities provided were so much more than we anticipated. The hosts were so wonderful and accommodating. It truly felt like we were staying at a friend's home due to the overall atmosphere of the home and the hosts themselves. We will definitely book here again! We also had dolphins put on a spectacular show right in front of the dock! It was amazing!
The home was clean and well-kept. The layout was well thought out and provided the right space and amenities for our group of 7. The fishing off the dock was fun and we enjoyed watching the dolphins and the sunrise each morning!
The house was perfect for our stay! The property was just as described and so inviting. It was private, yet close to everything we wanted to do. We enjoyed the dock and loved using the crab trap daily. The hosts were lovely and very responsive to our questions.
Highly recommended!
We have stayed at this beautiful home twice now and each time have loved our stay. The location is perfect if you are looking to fish and be close to the ferry for dinner or beach time in Port A. The home is very clean and well stocked and the dock is nonstop viewing of dolphins and fish.
The rental was clean and was well stocked. HEB is 5 mins away. The ferry is 2-3 mins away. We mainly went to fish and we caught plenty. Our host was sweet and responded to messages fast. Overall 10/10! We’ll definitely be back!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed staying at this cottage and plan to definitely go back!!There was something for everyone…fishing on the dock, coffee and relaxing on the porch swing, we even saw dolphins swimming nearby, and my younger two enjoyed collecting sea shells. The location of this cottage is perfect for relaxing and the owners are incredibly sweet. They do such a great job making sure you feel welcomed from their cute decor to providing many basic necessities. This was one of the best little family getaways we have been on..I honestly just can’t say enough good things about it!
This was one of our favorite houses we have ever stayed in. The location was perfect, the fishing was great and the owners went above and beyond to help make us feel welcome for our anniversary and birthday celebrations. The home was spotless, the location was accessible to the ferry, docks and bait shops and was very peaceful. This waterfront property is very hard to beat!
