Amazing Views - Beachfront 2BR/2BA Condo

Year Purchased: 2002

Why the Owner Chose Island Shores

Awesome direct ocean view as soon as you walk in the place. It's right next to Sea-n-Suds, Waffle House across the street, and short walk to Hooters, Pink Pony Pub and the Hangout. Hard to beat this location and view. Plus with a low density complex (59 units), there's plenty of room on our 200 feet of beachfront white sugar sand. It literally so fine it squeaks when you walk on it, and doesn't get too hot in the summer since it's white. I've traveled many beaches and haven't seen any better beaches.

The Unique Benefits at this Condominium

The ocean sounds are so relaxing. Many guests have spotted dolphins swimming as they sat on the balcony. Also, being on the top floor, it's a bit more quiet and peaceful away from other guests.

Owner's Map of Island Shores

Hello, I've had this property for over 7yrs now and broke free from management companies to manage it myself over 2yrs ago. Once I got off active duty Air Force and got my realtor license, decided to start doing it myself. I'm back on active duty as an Army Officer now. I love to travel, see new places and meet new people. I also manage my mom's condo in Gulf Shores (#141545) and my 2br/2ba condo in downtown Gatlinburg (#141532). We keep our properties well maintained, so you have a great vacation and visit our condos as repeat guest. Just check out the guestbook for testimonials. Thanks.

    • Can't say enough. This place was beyond our expectations. We highly recommend this area and condo. The views from the balcony were awesome especially the morning we saw dolphins swimming about a 100 yards from the shore. This would be a great place for a family vacation. We will plan on returning to the area and the condo in the future. Loved the fact that the owners were so easy to work with, no hassles at all.

    • This was our first time in Gulf Shores. Our family spent 7 nights in the condo. The views and closeness to the beach are what make this a 10. The McGee condo was exactly as described, clean, bright, cheery and furnished with all the necessities of home. The location makes it easy to get to local hangouts and restaurants. (Our favorites is Docs and DeSotos) The owner takes very good care to all details and cleanliness. I highly recommend the McGee condo. The security is also a plus. The only thing that I felt the condo needed was a room darkening shade in the master bedroom. We will definitely deal with Mr. McGee again. I look forward to our next visit to Gulf Shores.

    • We had a wonderful week at the condo. The condo is really nice and we enjoyed having a balcony overlooking the beach. If you didn't want to go to the beach you didn't have to. You could still enjoy the view. We had beautiful weather, not a drop of rain the whole week we were there. It rained on us going down and then we didn't see another drop of rain the entire week. The most fun thing we did was to take a Dolphin Cruise. This was not expensive, as I suspected it would be. It was wonderful. If you get the opportunity to do this, you'll certainly enjoy it. Channing is a great person to rent from. I have been recommending this condo to everyone that I can. The price is reasonable and we certainly enjoyed the week. Thank you for sharing your condo with us. We will probably rent from you again.

    • Condo was just as described. Channing communicated every detail and we knew what to expect when we arrived. Keyless entry meant no checking in which made the arrival process easy and no one had to wait. Wonderful location and we were able to walk to multiple souvenir stores and out to eat at many great locations. Had a great time and enjoyed the condo.

    • Thanks Channing for making it so easy and convenient. The condo is very nice and in a great location. We will definitely be back. We will also try to stay in your Gatlingburg condo. Thanks for your recommendation of Desotos. Their food was great.

    • We stayed for 4 nights in late November, and the weather was beautiful. The condo was in great shape and would be a nice choice for a small family. Channing was incredibly responsive and great to work with. He made the process very easy and even called the condo after we'd arrived to make sure everything was ok. The view is uninterrupted beach, and this condo is on the top (6th) floor. Great, economical choice!
