The house was in order when we arrived.There was a basic kitchen supply that wasn’t there as promised, but was delivered within an hour of inquiring about it.

We loved the area and the dock waking up seeing the water. The kids enjoyed exploring. The beds unfortunately were not cleaned under but an easy fix for a great location.

This home and location was perfect for our family getaway. We loved the location and simplicity of it. The pier was the highlight and we spent most of our time there, fishing, watching dolphins or just hanging out. We definitely plan to stay again!

Hi, Michele, thank you so much for your review! We're delighted you all enjoyed your stay and would love to host you again! :)
The house was as pictured. It is a little outdated and in need of alot of repairs. It is also for sale. We had people show up wanting to look at the house while we were there. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were spacious for our party of five. The tvs were a little hard to work they did not want to connect to the internet. There was two connections to choose from and one stopped working so we had to troubleshoot it to get it to work. The downstairs bathroom is completely unusable it smells horrendous and was not clean. Overall was a nice stay.
It was exactly what we needed and wanted for our stay

Thank you so much for your review-- it's always so awesome to hear when guests have had a great time! We'd love to host you again when you're ready to have that next girls trip! :)
We enjoyed that it had dock to fish off of, close to a few public beach’s and the ferry to dulphin island. Property was clean and had everything we needed for our stay, it also had a great outdoor area to hang out in.

Thank you for the great review! Hopefully you were able to catch some fish.
Great place on the bay to base your stay in the Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores area. Nice dock and covered area under the house to cookout and enjoy the evenings. Wish we had more time to enjoy.
The property was beautiful, the pictures definitely match, the view was amazing, the location was perfect! Shonna made it super easy to check in and was very helpful
This is our second stay as a group but my husbands 3rd stay. Never disappoints with how beautiful the house and the view is. Even enjoyed sitting out on the deck and listening to the music from the beach club across the street. Thanks again to the owners for renting out such a beautiful place.

Hi! Thank you SO much for being a return guest and for the stellar review! We love that we're able to share our special place with others and look forward to hosting you again!!! :)
The property is a little older but it was clean. My husband and I wanted a place off the grid a little and away from the noise of tourist spots. Plus he wanted to do a lot of fishing.
It was the perfect choice with the private dock and in location. We would definitely look to book here again.
