Built in 1876, the Mathis House provides a unique, historically-influenced retreat for visitors to Rockport. High-ceilinged rooms let in natural light throughout the home, reflecting gorgeous patterned wallpaper and carefully curated furniture. The living room is curated to be a modern, relaxing space complete with a wood fireplace, desk workspaces, and plenty of books for guests to enjoy. The full kitchen is arranged with modern conveniences, including a dishwasher and eat-in dining area. Central air conditioning will keep everyone staying inside at ease, and the private pool is a great way to cool off after a fun hot-weather hike. This home is all one floor and features an enclosed backyard, perfect for history buffs visiting with their families.

Inside the home, guests will find the first bedroom directly to the right upon coming through the front door. This lovely room features a four-poster bed and four full-length windows that provide a view of the front yard. Across the hall, the second bedroom provides extra seating, a crib for younger guests, and an elegant vanity with a seat. Proceeding to the dining room, guests need only turn right to find the third bedroom. This room offers a modern-style bed, trendy vertical wallpaper, and an en suite bathroom with a shower/tub combination. Across the hall in the fourth bedroom, modern-style beds accompany a uniquely tiled en suite bathroom.

**Due to the location of our rentals, you may encounter situations with wildlife/pests. Please be aware of your surroundings, take caution while driving at night, and supervise your children at all times while outdoors. In addition, all properties do utilize pest control maintenance on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee pests or bugs will not be visible.

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us.

This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!
