Good Time Charlie-An absolute gem!

Our group had 14 ranging from 5 to 42. We opted to heat the pool which was nice with the cooler windy nights. Each bedroom has its own bathroom which was amazing! The location and amenities were also perfect for our group. We would definitely stay again.

Annual Family beach trip

We enjoyed the house….the layout worked for our crew. We also enjoyed the back porch view of the lagoon & the wild life it presented. Many of our group used the pool as well. The beach is a short walk. All in all this was one our favorites for our annual family trip.

Clark Family Beach trip

This was our 2nd consecutive stay @ Good Time Charlie’s. The space fits our crew just about right and its location works as well. The great room gives our folks the thing they want most….to hang out with each other. The house has about what your basic needs are in the way of the kitchen…TV’s ….great pool ….and view. We always enjoy it.

Girly fest!

We had a group of 11 college girlfriends. The house was perfect for our gang. We mainly stayed at the house. We cooked our own food, enjoyed the swimming pool, play games, and had bonfires. At first, I thought I would be disappointed that we weren’t on the beach, but the lagoon side is lovely. It’s peaceful and the sunsets were absolutely gorgeous.

Perfect

This home has the perfect location overlooking the lagoon and just a short walk under the bridge and you are on the beach. We have stayed at Gulf Shores many times and this is now my favorite spot. The house was perfect for our group of 16! The home is stocked with all the beach equipment you need. The kitchen has plentiful amount utensils and appliances. Every bedroom having a private bathroom is great. The private pool area was great for all ages. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful vacation home!

This house exceeded our expectations! It was very well maintained and clean. The pool was very nice and stayed clean the whole week. It was an easy walk through the neighborhood to get to the inlet and beach. It took me five minutes to be on the beach. The Lagoon pass area was quiet and all of the houses looked well maintained. The dock was a great size and didn’t get used much except for our family and one young boy from the house next to us. We have been coming to Gulf Shores for seven years and this has been our best experience yet.
