Great place to stay

Guest: Holly14 (St. Peters, MO)
Date of Stay: 03/10/12 Review Submitted: 03/15/12

We just finished staying here on 3/15. It was a great place to stay. Nice condo with good amenities. It rained for 2 days, so we were able to use the indoor pool and hot tub. Beach access was nice as well, as when it stopped raining we were on the beach. Exactly what we were looking for.

A Great Place to Spend January

Guest: tk (Iowa City, Iowa)
Date of Stay: 01/01/12 Review Submitted: 02/09/12

We enjoyed the secluded and safe atmosphere of the condo complex. The condo itself was wonderfully comfortable with every convenience possible. Since we like to engage in outdoor activities, we loved the trails in Bon Secour, Gulf State Park and the Audubon Bird Sanctuary on Dauphin Island as well as the many beaches of the Gulf and Mobile Bay. The warm indoor pool was just what we needed for our aching bones and muscles after a full day's activities. All in all, the experience exceeded our expectations. We will recommend the condo to our friends and relatives for a great winter get-away. Thanks, Annie and Dave, for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

Due to bad weather, my husband and I were stuck in the condo. But, I would not call it STUCK. We enjoyed every minute. Quiet, relaxing, beautiful are words to describe this condo and location. Wonderful view of the Gulf from the balcony. I look forward to another visit. Was the listing description accurate regarding the location? Yes Did the listing photos accurately reflect the rental’s appearance and amenities? Yes Was the property clean and well-maintained? Yes Was the owner helpful in answering your questions or concerns? Yes, very nice owners. Would you recommend this property to a friend or relative? Oh Yes What nearby activities, attractions and restaurants would you recommend? Original Oyster House, Gulf Steamers, Blue Angel's Practice session, Fort Morgan, Adventure Land for mini golf, and so much more.

Wonderfully Relaxing Vacation!

Thank you Dave and Annie for a wonderful getaway! Your condo is very clean and well stocked and it was so easy to work with you:) My husband and I loved the view from the balcony every morning. It was great to spend a few days unwinding after the stress of leaving our youngest son at college in Montgomery. Only one small suggestion. I think it is time for a new coffee pot. The one there will not heat the coffee well, but otherwise fabulous time! We will be back again. Thank you for sharing with us!

Owner response:Thaks for the tip. It's hard for us to know especially during the busy summer season. I will get a new one. Hope to see you next trip to the gulf.

My sister and I needed a getaway after the death of our mother. The picture of the view from the private patio caught our attention. The condo was clean and well represented in the pictures. The highlight of our stay was simply sitting on the patio enjoying the breeze and watching the waves. So relaxing. I plan to visit again with my husband. I've already told friends about your place. Thanks to the Durrs for responding so quickly to our last minute request. We really enjoyed your condo and look forward to visiting again.

Wonderful Vacation!

Date of Stay: 02/01/11 Review Submitted: 03/25/11

We snowbirds from Minnesota spent the month of February 2011 at this lovely, lovely condo. It was so comfortable, well maintained and had everything we needed. In addition to that, the view from the balcony was spectacular. We felt we had the best of everything! Dave and Annie were great to work with from start to finish. We definitely want to make a return trip and would certainly recommend this property to others.

Owner response:Can't wait to have you back next year.

I have been waiting so long to get down here, and it was worth the wait. The condo was clean, comfortable, and charming. I came here with my boyfriend who LOVES to fish, and he had a blast. Everyone that we met here were so friendly and we even met folks that lived not far from us (Atlanta, Ga). If only we could have stayed just one more day! We will be back in the Spring. Thanks, Annie and Dave for letting us be your guests in your humble abode.

Words honestly can't express how perfect this little vacation get-away spot is. The condo was beautiful, well maintained and attractively decorated just as promised. Annie was wonderful about answering all of my questions and the condo had absolutely everything we needed...all we had to add was food, clothing and ourselves! The beach was lovely and we found something new and interesting to do each day. Thanks for sharing your condo with us, Annie and Dave...we can't wait to come stay again!
