About the host

Hosted by David and Sheryl

Host profile image
My wife and I live in the little town of Elberta, about 10 minutes from Gulf Shores .. We've been down here since the early 80"s. I'm a Yankee originally, but She's from Birmingham, so folks say that makes me ok.. :)

Why they chose this property

We have 4 vacation rental homes in the neighborhood. Our first one is a little cottage one street over. It's the first home I had here in Gulf Shores, I lived there when I met my wife.. Many years after we moved to Elberta, it came up for sale and we were fortunate to be able to get it. We're very thankful that things have worked out the way they have, and very glad to share our places with folks like you!

What makes this property unique

This house is Beachy, Beautiful, Very Clean, and Modern Enough. The Giant screened back porch, the FENCED yard, the PERFECT location, and the COOL little neighborhood, all comes together to make this a WONDERFUL stay!
