Family Vacation

The house was perfect for our family of 5! It was very spacious, everyone had their own space and the pool was perfect! We arrived a little earlier than expected and the host was very accommodating to let us check in a little early! We will definitely book this house again in the future!

Great house in a good location

The house was great and close to many attractions. Only a short drive to a beautiful beach. House was well furnished with TONS of space. Each person had their own bed which made for more rested days. The pool was great for when we weren't at the beach. Highly recommend!

Nice place to stay

This house was very spacious for the 11 of us. It was very comfortable and we really enjoyed the pool. The pool was huge! The kitchen had a lot of necessities and even had a crockpot and waffle iron. The house is located by dining, stores and not too far from the beach. We went to Mobile to see the battleship and the whole group really enjoyed that too.

Nice large home for a big family

We rented this as a place for a multi generational vacation. The home was more then roomy for 11 people. You must like cats as a sweet neighbor cat came to visit us and we just loved it. If we return to Gulf Shores with our large group again we will try and book this home again.

Great property, great experience

It was so hard to leave! My family and I visited so that I could attend my graduation. The amenities were great, the property was beautiful and wonderfully maintained. There were plenty of linens and towels available. I paid for the heated pool option and when initially it was not turned on, but when I reached out, they responded immediately and reimbursed me for the days that the heated pool was not on. Overall it was a great experience.

Overall stay

The overall stay was great. The only complaint we have is the tvs. All the tvs only had a couple channels which werent watchable channels. The one tv where the bunk beds were didnt work for the kids. Theres no cable or no local channels. Especially for the little kids to watch. One of the bedrooms door hinges screws came off the day we got there.
