Very clean house with everything we needed and less than a five-minute walk to the beach. Our dogs loved running and playing on the beach, and the outdoor shower and hose made keeping them clean extremely easy. The host was always reachable and very helpful. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it!

Perfect for our stay!

The house was very nice and clean. The location was great for walking to the beach. There are several good restaurants nearby, and downtown Gulf Shores is only 12 miles away for more choices. Excellent location for taking day trips to Dauphin Island, Orange Beach, Perdido Key, and Pensacola.

Vacation Paradise

Our family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful beach home. Communication with the owner was great, and made sure we didn’t have any questions. Private beach access with parking, if needed. I would stay at this property in the future.

We loved this beautiful home for our family vacation. We had kids and a pup with us and the space was perfect. Extremely clean, spacious and comfortable. The mattress was so comfortable, it's got me thinking about buying a new one for my own home haha. The kitchen was mostly well stocked, however, I do wish there was a few more cooking utensils but we got the jobs done. We were able to use the grill to make steaks one night. We would glady stay here again!

Beach Vacation

The home is new and in great shape. Proximity to the beach is very good... the beach is one of the few dog friendly beaches available. Communication with David (host) was always helpful and very responsive.

Wonderful location and amazing home!

This property was so enjoyable! My husband and I and our 2 dogs had a wonderful stay! The beach is so close to walk to and the location was so much quieter than further down in Gulf Shores/orange Beach. The house and all its furniture and supplies were like new and we found everything we needed!! We will return again to this excellent rental!

Great Beach House!

The home is very well appointed and comfortable. Plenty of room for the six people that came on our trip. The owners are super friendly and responsive. The beach is a short walk away, but they have a beach Biggy in the shed under the house that worked much better than ours. Overall it was a great experience! Would absolutely stay there again!

Fantastic Hosts and great property!

David and Denise were great. Everything was made simple, the communication was top notch, and the property is even better and nicer than it looks in the photos. I would recommend this property for anyone that wants to relax by and on the beach slightly away from the busier crowds in Orange Beach and other crowded locations. Overall it was super comfortable for 6 adults and very clean & updated amenities. Highly recommended!

Short walk to beach!

The weather sadly didn’t cooperate for us during our week stay but the house was perfect for needs. It’s a very short walk to the beach, appreciate the beach cart they have available for guests to use - we used it the day we finally had warm sun! Use of a dog friendly beach was awesome! Very quiet neighborhood. Will 100% recommend.

Siesta Breeze

A beautiful home with a short walk to the Association's private access to the Gulf. The house is bright and fresh inside and out. A nice outside shower including a heavy duty hose to wash the sand and salt waters off the humans and dogs was very appreciated.

Great house!!

This lovely home was perfect for our family. It is well appointed and big enough for individual space. Beach access is a one minute drive or an easy five minute walk. David and Denise were responsive and courteous to our needs. Although we had zero challenges with the property. I would highly recommend booking this property. FIVE STARS!!

Beautiful Vacation

Me and Husband booked this home for our three children (ages 6, 4 and 2) along with my mother and other family members. The home was clean, well built and beautiful. From the tall doors, high ceilings, mesmoring Masters bathroom and patio/balcony. They also provide beach chairs and boards for the private beach access. The community is quiet and everyone waved and acknowledged us whenever we were outside. I also love the fact that the home is children friendly. Our kids spent alot of time in the bunkbeds and also the dinning area in the kitchen. The home well stocked with pots and pans, eating utensils and also a Keurig coffee maker. We will definitely book again for our next vacation in Fort Morgan. Thank you to the Hosts!
