I was in town for work, and this was a great place to stay after a long day. The apartment was very clean, and it was nice and close to restaurants and shops.

These choices don't even come close to the wonderful place you have! The apartment is spectacular, location is perfect for a nice motorcycle cruise to neighboring towns, and the fishing is phenomenal!! Thank you again for letting us share your paradise! More importantly I hope we have made some new fishing buddies!! Cheri and Lori April 2017

Hosts were super nice and accommodating. I would describe the Barndominium as a nice one bedroom apartment, newly constructed with excellent features. Located in the country a few minutes outside of Shiner, this was just the peaceful getaway we were looking for. We will stay with the Byrd's again if we are back in the area!

THIS PLACE IS GORGEOUS!! The pictures don't do it justice, it is fabulous. I have Airbnb'd all over the world and this is in my top 3. Comfortable, clean and amazingly appointed, not well, amazing. The kitchen is gourmet, they have every extra gadget, 3 different ways to make your coffee, slow cooker, rice cooker, one of a kind plates and bowls from the Netherlands, I could go on and on. We were in town for a funeral and James and Marty were so kind to us. We had our family over for a BBQ and they let us pick from their garden for fresh ingredients, Marty even made us homemade salsa. Sit on the swing and watch the sunset. Start a fire and listen to the crickets and ducks. It's just heaven on the Byrd Sanctuary! Thanks again guys for such a great experience x

The Byrd's Nest is perfect! This place is clean, modern, well-equipped, beautifully decorated and the location is peaceful and secluded. We have rented many houses in different locations over the years and this place, by far, is the best. The modern kitchen is so well stocked with high-end cooking pans, utensils, knives, prep and serving ware. If you are an avid cook, this place will not disappoint. The outdoor spaces are perfect for hanging out in the evening whether you want to BBQ or light a fire in the chiminea. We enjoyed six wonderful nights here and really didn't want to leave.

Such a beautiful location. The ranch is very relaxing. The rental space is clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend a stay here.

It was a great stay! James and Marty's were awesome. They have built a great get away with nature all around. Enjoyed Ruby and Red Snapper (doggies). :)

What an amazing property this is! James & Marty truly let you enjoy their property and get away from it all! They are very accommodating for whatever your needs may be. Will definitely return to visit.

This was by far one of the greatest places to get away from it all. The views are gorgeous and our hosts were very gracious and hospitable. We were even fortunate to get a guided tour of the grounds and got to play fetch with Ruby and chill with Snapper, the two dogs on the grounds. I highly recommend.

Barbara was very pleasant and the instructions were very clear making it easy. The studio has great ac a full fridge a comfy bed and lovely views. Great stay!

Our stay was very enjoyable and relaxing. The room was clean and comfortable with a very usable kitchen that includes full size appliances. There was a selection of snacks available in the room when we arrived which was a nice touch. Information on the local area (things to see, restaurants) were in a nicely organized binder. There was a wide selection of books to read and a few DVDs as well. We really enjoyed sitting out on the private deck and watching nature (deer, birds, squirrels, etc.). Even though the studio is close to the owners' house, it still felt very private. Overall, the listing was very accurate.

You can't go wrong with this place. It is private and extremely clean. The kitchen is roomy and equipped with everything you need to make a meal. It is located next to Goose Island State Park (close enough to walk) and only a short driving distance to all the great birding locations.

This location is perfect if you are looking for a quiet, secluded area, surrounded by trees and deer. The studio is well stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay, especially if you plan on cooking your own meals. It is next to Goose Island State Park, and minutes from the Rockport beach - close enough to make easy day trips without the long drive home at night. A definite stay in the Rockport/Fulton area. Highly recommended!

Perfect, efficient, peaceful studio. Barbara was gracious and helpful, even advising us how to locate nearby the rare birds we were seeking.

We had a wonderful stay.... the studio was immaculate and Barbara thought of everything.... we especially loved sitting on the patio and viewing the stars....

Great place to stay for quiet and privacy!

Had a fantasic stay, great location and great place to stay. Easy check in, would definitely recommend.

This is a beautifully remodeled and very clean condo. The location is perfect, especially if you have a boat, since it is right on the water with a pier. I loved having a small balcony off of the master bedroom. It was perfect to enjoy the cool of the morning and the sunset at night. There is also a small patio off of the living area which we really enjoyed. There are 2 full bathrooms, both of which are off of 2 of the 3 bedrooms. The 3rd bedroom has a half bath. Penny & Collin were great to work with--and responsive when we had questions during our stay. The area is very family friendly!

Judy was responsive to all messages quickly! the condo was clean, and had a home feeling to it. we went at the end of august during the week and there were maybe 4 cars for the entire complex- that was awesome! it kept it very quiet and calm! we took our small shih tzu with us, and this unit was perfect. the back door goes right out to grass which made it excellent for doggy potty breaks. There is central air in the unit, but she also had a small a/c unit in the living room that made it nice and cool when we walked in. this unit is 2 doors down from the pool which is very convenient. my only con would be that the living room is VERY bright at night- if someone in your party is planning on sleeping in the living room it will be difficult with the outside hallway light on. Nothing that can't be fixed with some curtains :) overall- we have already recommended this to friends and look forward to coming back!

The condo is well kept and very clean; very comfortable for 2 people (but can sleep easily family of 4) and cozy. Location is great, with harbor views. Rockport is a nice little town with ocean views (my favorite is a drive on Fulton Beach road!), great restaurants and shops. Walmart and HEB are there so we could go and get anything we needed. Port Aransas beach just 30 minutes away. We enjoyed our vacation at Judy's condo and will come back definitely!

This place is awesome for family of 4 kids included. We used an air mattress in the living room for the kids and it works out great. The place is very well kept, super clean and there is every thing available for use. The bath room is ideal to give kids a bath because of the hand shower, and no bath tub, thank you for that !! Lots of fishing spot around the place. We were there for the beach so we had to drive to Chorpus Christi for that which was an hour and half away. I will highly recommend this place !!

Judy was more than amazing to deal with. She was prompt with responding as well as providing the basic information for about her place. The property is beautiful and quiet. What you see is what you get with this condo. It exceeded our expectations and we will book this property again in a heartbeat. We are so glad we decided to rent this place.

Judy had plates and a wine glass ready for us upon our arrival - very nice! The place was clean and the AC was already on, so it was quite refreshing to enter after a long trip on the road. It was fully stocked with all the amenities we needed for our young children.

Our family had a wonderful time in Judy's condo. The kitchen was well stocked, lots of towels. My boys loved being able to walk out the back door and fish. It was off the beaten path, but we didn't mind one bit! Really nice place and will def stay again on our next trip to Rockport!

This was the first time we have used airbnb and we had a wonderful experience. The condo was extremely clean with comfortable beds and furniture. So if you are tired of hotels and want some place comfortable with the ability to cook a meal or just have coffee before you leave to go into town or to the beach for the day, do yourself a favor and try this wonderful place.

What a refreshing treat this condo was for us! It was in a great location and our kids loved how you could fish right from the back yard! Judy was very helpful and I would return in a heartbeat.
