Our group has been coming to Gulf Shores for 18 years. Mark and Cindy are the best hosts we have encountered and their property is second to none. The pool area is perfect for all, access to the lagoon by the provided kayaks was a great time. It’s a very quiet area with great access to everything that gulf shores has to offer. I could go on and on, book and make memories like we did.

Perfect Spring break getaway

Great place for a big group! Wonderful location (near beach but not on busy main road) with every amenity you could want. Pool and hot tub were perfect for our group. Great kitchen for eating in with larger group. Kayaking off boardwalk on inlet was a blast. Plenty of parking. One of the cleanest properties we have stayed in! Porch overlooking pool was perfect for grandparents too!

Our family had a great time at this property. The house is clean, spacious and very well stocked. The pool is even better than it looks in the pictures, and kayaking, fishing and crabbing in the Little Lagoon right behind the house is a blast. The beach is a short walk away (less than 1/2 mile), and it feels even closer with the beach cart and bikes that are provided. We had a minor issue when a lightening storm knocked out the internet service and the owners made it their major priority to get us back online ASAP. You couldn't ask for better folks to do with than Cindy and Mark. I'd highly recommend bringing your family to this home. You won't be disappointed.

Our Own Little Resort!

Three generations of family stayed in this home during a week where four of the days were double-red flags, making us very thankful for the lovely pool area of the home along with the outdoor games provided. The view of the lagoon was beautiful, and our grandson enjoyed fishing and kayaking right in our own "backyard!"

Great getaway with plenty of room and only steps from the beach

We really enjoyed our stay in March for spring break. The heated pool and hot tub were fantastic and the beach was only about a 10 minute walk from the home. With nine adults and three children, there was still plenty of room for everyone. Home was well kept and had all the amenities we desired!

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Boswell

Host profile image
We visited the area 8 years ago and fell in love with Gulf Shores. We have another vacation rental in Harbor Springs, Michigan that is listed on Home Away #3663428. It's a very beautiful area in northern Michigan on Little Traverse Bay.

What makes this property unique

Our home is very unique in that we are in the middle of all the action, yet our pool and lagoon are very private with lots of lush landscaping. It is a perfect getaway for couples, families, or golf outings.
