Perfect for a little family get away

The property was perfect for our intended vacation of being on the beach, the back deck was large and even had space we could put a small splash pool for the kiddos! The walk to the beach is perfect and the views are beautiful! The beach was quiet not being near any big condo buildings. Communication was great we were able to navigate a few minor maintenance details, while there with quick response everytime! The house is sufficiently stocked for the basics! We would return here again in the future.

Great little spot on the beach!!

What a wonderful stay we had! I highly recommend this place for being right on the beach in Gulf Shores. This is not the newest place, but the location is EVERYTHING!! The owner was so responsive and answered every question and concern we had. We were two grandmas, who have been friends since high school and we enjoyed siting on the deck reading. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We will be back.

Great stay

We had a great stay! We accidentally booked during the hangout festival, and were worried the beach would be super crowded however, this location felt like we had a private beach area even with the festival going on only about 2 miles away. We will definitely stay here again.

Gulf Shores Vacation

We greatly enjoyed our stay. The house was as described and had plenty of space for our family of 5. The beach is just steps away with easy private access and was exactly what our family needed for fun and relaxation time. The owners were extremely responsive and easy to work with. We will certainly stay here again.

Fabulous stay on Gulf Shore!

Everything was great. We were right on the Gulf, far enough out of the city so we were not crowded, plenty of shells to look for and the dolphins entertained us.
