We were looking for a private house with private pool for Covid safety, and we really enjoyed our time in this home. The interior offered the perfect and well appointed space for 2 families with young kids. The outdoor space was amazing with heated pool (important in March) and firepit for nightly conversations among the adults. We cooked at home most nights and the kitchen was well stocked with gear. We enjoyed our time in Port Aransas and at this home. ##### Jaime G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia B. 5 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Knot Too Shabby-great house! Our first visit to Port A was great! House was perfect for our family of 7! Everyone had their own space. Pool was great for the hot summer days. Golf carts are the mode of transportation on the island so that’s a must have! House had everything you need to start out. Easy grocery delivery order from HEB or eat out at some local spots. Beach is a short cart ride away! We will be back! ##### Julia B.

We had fun in the pool after a long day at the beach. The bottom room was having difficulties with the AC but they were able to fix the problem.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Cherilyn C. 18 Jul 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family fun We enjoyed our stay at Knot so Shabby. We loved having a private pool, deck and fire pit. The beds were very comfortable and we liked the layout of the house. Downstairs furniture was uncomfortable and not very spacious for the 12 max guest limit. The kitchen was missing a lot of basic cooking supplies such a whisks and a multi serve coffee pot. Overall these were minor complaints that’s didn’t make a large impact on our fun trip! ##### Cherilyn C.

It was just the spring break vacation that my family and our friends needed. The property was well kept and comfy. Just might recommend an update to the living room cushions, but it didn't keep us from relaxing and enjoying one of our favorite destinations. We loved our stay and would recommend to others.
