Property was beautiful and in a nice quiet area with a close walk to the beach. There weren’t many restaurants to walk to but they were only a short drive. Overall it was a great stay.

5 Stars

Wonderful cottage, very well stocked, private and comfortable. Only a block away from the beach with easy access. Loved the easy access to the Gulf Shores State Park walking trails. Only issue with cottage is bedside lamps in the master bedroom with king bed had a lot of dust buildup. Besides that everything was exceptional. Plan to visit again.

The Ideal Spot

The ideal vacation house for a family of four. The quiet location was just a short walk to the beach and a pool just steps away. The clean bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious for four adults. The kitchen was clean and well stocked with all that you would need on vacation. The rental agency reached out after arrival to make sure everything was good. Great communication! I will mention that there were marks on the walls and the normal wear and tear that you would find in rentals, but I still give the overall experience a 5 and would stay here again.

Amazing beach vacation rental! Property managers were very responsive. Kitchen had everything needed to cook. Only recommendation I have for travelers is to bring an extra blanket because the HVAC is very powerful and gets cold easily. Other than that we loved it.

This was a perfect location for us. We were able to walk our dog around the neighborhood and get to Gulf State Park’s massive trail system without going out to the busy main road. Beach access was just across the street. The house was clean and the neighborhood quiet. A few kitchen essentials like salt and pepper and cooking oil would be appreciated.

Response from VrboOwner on Feb 25, 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry for the disappointment regarding the check-in timing. We completely understand wanting a little extra time, especially when transitioning between stays. Our policies are in place to allow our cleaning and inspection teams the time they need to properly prepare each property for incoming guests. Even when it appears vacant, there is often scheduled servicing taking place behind the scenes. We always do our best to accommodate early arrivals when availability allows, and we regret that we weren’t able to make that happen in this instance. We sincerely appreciate you staying with us and hope we have the opportunity to provide an even smoother experience next time.

Best “not on the beach” location

So close to the beach without all the sand returning with you to the accommodation. We love the location! We brought our dog and she loved walks in the neighborhood. The house was very comfortable and felt homey. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare quick meals. We would absolutely stay here again!
