This is my favorite vacation home of the 40 plus I’ve rented. Cleanliness is my first priority in rentals, then would come comfortable accommodations. There is absolutely nothing I could want or need not in this home. It was immaculate inside and out! Very nice furnishings all over home. Beds were very comfortable, and the host was so kind and very accommodating to us. We thank you and I will be back soon ##### Sherry A. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arlecie H.

Wish it could have been longer. From the welcoming lower level designed for relaxing to the amazing open kitchen and living area - we loved every part of this beach house. My personal favorite part of this beach house is the vast quartz island that serves as the perfect gathering spot for family. Easy access to the beach and dining. Love that this is a low traffic area too. Since I work remotely, I appreciated the fast internet. We highly recommend this beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath beach house.

Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Baseball Tournament w/ a little time at the beach We rented this location so that we would have easy access to the beach in the afternoons after our baseball games were complete. This property has a great location a short walk from the beach as well as restaurants and ice cream! I think the couch must have been changed since the listing was published because it did not appear to have a sleeper function which reduces the number of potential occupants. We didn't need it but that probably should be updated so that folks only bring 6 people and not 8. ##### Daniel C. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monica B. Aug 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing!! I really could not say enough good things about this property and the owners. My family and I travel to Alabama often but this was my husband and kiddos first time to Gulf Shores. We simply did not want to leave. The property was homey and cozy and had plenty to do inside and out. Not to mention in a great location in accordance to the beach! We were able to find places to eat with ease and go to the beach in a matter of just minutes. It was also close enough that my children and husband got to go to a Florida beach as well!! The owners were responsive and very nice! We will 100% return to this property in the future and definitely recommend it! ##### Monica B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mary t. Aug 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house near the beach—with easy access to the beach For our first time to Gulf Shores, we were fortunate to book here with relatively short notice and with the ability to bring our dogs. We loved it! The house was clean, spacious, and well appointed. Everything we needed was available (of course we brought our groceries with us) for the stay and for the beach. We enjoyed the beach supply closet—so many great options for fun at the beach-chairs, umbrella, toys, floats, and soooo much more! As for beach access—Given I had a total knee replacement at the end of May, the short drive to park for the public beach access (pay to park all day—and can leave and return to the same or different public beach parking all day with the parking pass) was perfect with not too far to walk across the boardwalk to the beach. My spouse walked to the beach one day and reported it was easy and not too far…either by way of lagoon or beach Blvd. We found the pizza place a good landmark for us to turn on w 9th for the “back way” to get to the house. The under the house sitting area and koi pond are nice touches, the neighborhood is fairly quiet, and it is located well with quick and easy access to restaurants, stores, etc. We have been to different beaches and houses, and this was, by far, the best in our price range. The host was friendly, kind, and communicative, so we rate the host as excellent as well! Thank you for a much needed restful beach week. We will look to book here again if/when we return to Gulf Shores! ##### mary t. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sherry P.
