After hearing much about how great Gulf Shores is from many people, we decided to spend our two-month Winter Adventure 2017 here - away from the harsh Upper Midwest winter of Wisconsin. Lorie, the owner, was so personable and approachable, making us feel welcome from the moment we booked. She provided lots of info on things to do in the area and was easy to reach through text and email. John, one the two permanent residents in this low-density condo, was friendly, recommending restaurants from the many nearby choices.
This condo is really comfortable in a perfect location for golf, shopping, and dining. We had beach access right across the highway, an easy, quick walk. The condo was very clean, well-kept, and well-appointed, including a washer and dryer and the comfortable master bedroom bed. Because we like to fix many meals during our stay, we appreciated the fully-stocked kitchen which even had a crock pot. This is our first condo to have a screen door, and we relished keeping the door open. We also loved using the table and chairs on the front balcony for our evening drinks. We had a convenient parking space underneath the building, too. All in all, this condo provides plenty of room to relax and enjoy this area.
Gulf Shores proved to be such a peaceful area during January and February, and Lorie and Kenneth’s Ocean Echo #101 is the ideal home-away-from-home! Thank you for sharing your home with us, making our Winter Adventure truly memorable!
