The AC went out and they had a new one installed that day. Great location close to beach and dollar general. House could use a little updating but for the money is a great value.

Pet friendly, handy to all the Gulf Shores activities, you can walk to the gulf. Older property, could use some updates. Inside was clean, outside had some debris from the storage shed which is under the house and seems to be falling apart, mold on the outside of the building and the decks need stained. We appreciate it is pet friendly but sadly other renters or neighbors did not clean up after their pets prior to our arrival. It is on a trash route so every morning around 6:00 you hear trucks dumping the bins across the street.

We had a very nice stay. The house was great. We are in our 70s so the stairs were a little hard to navigate. But we knew about them from the photos. The high table and stools were a little difficult as well. Overall it was great. The host was very helpful especially when we needed to add a couple of nights to our stay! Would definitely recommend it to others.
