Family friendly condo.

We enjoyed our stay at the property. The condo is large and accommodating to bigger families. We had 11 people with us and never felt cramped. There is one bedroom downstairs by the kitchen with a queen size bed. The other three bedrooms are upstairs. Two of those have king size beds and the other has a king, two twins and a sleeper sofa. There are at least two other sleeper sofa's in the condo. The condo is a little older, but much care has been taken in the unit.

As for the amenities, the unit is well stocked. The carpets have not been replaced, but was not a big deal to us. There was a coleman gas grill in one of the closets that folded up nicely. I could see where some may have missed the grill. There was a full gas cylinder in the closet also. Our kids loved the nintendo wii. It was a big hit, there were many games of bowling, baketball, golf, etc. played while we were there. Bring some batteries!

We enjoyed the fact that the island was a little remote. It was about a 30 min drive to Mobile. While it may be a little inconvenient to run get a gallon of milk(a Dollar General was about 12 mins away), it was well made up for in the fact that there was not bumper to bumper traffic. We ate in most days, but did eat at the little bbq place towards the west end of the island. It was terrific! I would recommend visiting the west end of the island, especially around sunset. It was a great place for pictures. They also showed movies on the west end beach at dark on several nights.

Our family loves combing the beach for treasures. We did find some shells and a couple of shark teeth close to the condo. I would recommend walking west on the beach towards the golf course. You will quickly leave the crowds behind. It almost felt like we were the only ones on the island. Very peaceful and unlike many of the crowded beach towns. There did seem to be more shells on the west end of the island. I guess the sand bar that jets out near the golf course keeps some of the shells from coming onshore closer to the property.

Rhonda did provide our family with a certificate that covered the green fees at the local golf course. The course itself was a little rough, but new management has just recently taken over and is committed to making it a great course again. They seemed to be good folks and were working hard to revive the course.

Overall, we really enjoyed our time at the property and on the island. It was a great experience and we would gladly return anytime!
