Excellent property

Property is in a great location. Beach was not too busy and dog friendly. There was plenty of room for our family and close to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. Highly recommend this property. It was a bit pricey but we throughly enjoyed ourselves.

Beautiful beach house

We had a great time! The home was very clean and nicely updated and the location, oceanfront, was perfect! My kids especially like all the beach toys and crab nets. Something to watch out for, the stairs in front are quite steep but the ramp around back made that climb easier. We would definitely rent here again.

Great comfortable spot!

This house was a great spot and very comfortable. Had everything you needed. We had 5 boys and 2 adults and were super comfortable. The house is right on the beach and an added bonus is the walkway deck out past the dunes to the beach. Definitely would recommend and be back!

Great property

We had a wonderful time! Great property- great memories made with our adult kids/spouses. *would’ve like a little shade on back patio with perhaps an umbrella on the table, but not a huge deal. Fully equipped kitchen made our family dinners great. Thanks for the memories & we’ll look forward to future bookings.
