Our group has been coming to Gulf Shores for 18 years. Mark and Cindy are the best hosts we have encountered and their property is second to none. The pool area is perfect for all, access to the lagoon by the provided kayaks was a great time. It’s a very quiet area with great access to everything that gulf shores has to offer. I could go on and on, book and make memories like we did.

We have had the best time ever enjoying this beautiful and private property! The house was clean and well arranged (my daughter-in-law said they have stayed at several vrbo’s and this one did not make her feel “icky” when she walked in lol). Truly, there is something for everyone and never a time for boredom. We spent numerous hours by (and in) the lovely designed, beautifully landscaped swimming pool/spa or at the private, strategically shaded “beach” on the lagoon fishing, crabbing, kayaking, or just relaxing. The Gulf of America/beach is just a few minutes walk and the owner has thought of and shared everything you might need for a day in the pool, by the lagoon, or at the beach! We power-walked or jogged more than once daily-enjoyed nice bike and walking trails very close to the house, and our men and teens rode bikes, played table tennis, and threw “axes” in between all the other activities! Our group of 6 adults and 6 kids (ages 6-17) typically enjoyed ready made breakfast and sandwich lunches but we cooked out or ordered in for the evening meal most evenings (to avoid dinner crowds given our party of 12). The kitchen is very well equipped. The appliances are newer and work great. Sleeping arrangements worked out beautifully to boot! (The beds are clean and really comfortable). Not too far away we visited the Gulf Shores State Park to walk and bike the trails and the guys enjoyed a day fishing off the pier (they caught 30 fish!) The Wharf was a fun escapade, too!

Perfect Spring break getaway

Great place for a big group! Wonderful location (near beach but not on busy main road) with every amenity you could want. Pool and hot tub were perfect for our group. Great kitchen for eating in with larger group. Kayaking off boardwalk on inlet was a blast. Plenty of parking. One of the cleanest properties we have stayed in! Porch overlooking pool was perfect for grandparents too!

Great getaway with plenty of room and only steps from the beach

We really enjoyed our stay in March for spring break. The heated pool and hot tub were fantastic and the beach was only about a 10 minute walk from the home. With nine adults and three children, there was still plenty of room for everyone. Home was well kept and had all the amenities we desired!

Our Own Little Resort!

Three generations of family stayed in this home during a week where four of the days were double-red flags, making us very thankful for the lovely pool area of the home along with the outdoor games provided. The view of the lagoon was beautiful, and our grandson enjoyed fishing and kayaking right in our own "backyard!"
