Great experience

The house was very clean and stocked with more than I expected. Great location just a few minutes from Gulf Shores but very quiet. Short walk to a beautiful beach that is much less crowded than the main public beach. Property manager was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

Peaceful paradise!

This location was perfect, the yard, the house itself and the secluded beach just a short walk away! The ducks and beautiful birds…very natural setting while still being a short drive to activities of town if wanted. I highly recommend this home if you are wanting to truly get away from a busy lifestyle! Even the color scheme and decor of the house invited you to breathe easy and relax! There were no condiments stocked at the time we were there so maybe make a grocery list after checking in.
