Wonderful week!

We had the best time! This was a great beach house, tucked in off the road and close to the water/dock. My husband fished every morning, we saw dolphins multiple days and slept great! Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Cute house on the bay

The house is beautifully decorated with an amazing view of the bay, with a dock. It has most everything you would need to cook meals in the kitchen and plenty of towels for both bathrooms. We would stay here again.

Wonderful stay!

We had a great stay! Our AC went out all of a sudden putting us at 85* indoor temp. They were very accommodating in relocating us until the tech could fix the issue. Communication was excellent! This is our 2nd time staying in this house and look forward to doing it again!

Lovely Bay side oasis

Very nice property and comfortable accommodations. Large kitchen and beautiful view of the bay from every window of the living area. We fished off of the dock and enjoyed the patio for coffee in the morning and wine in the evenings. Easy check-in and check-out. Not many choices for eating out during the off season so be prepared to either cook or drive a ways to eat. Overall, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Exactly what we wanted!

Our family of 6 (parents and kids 15, 13, 10, and 1) had such a great time here! The home was clean and kitchen had everything we needed. The living area was so comfortable and we loved being able to see the water through the big windows. There was lots of storage space in the closets. We were close to the city if we wanted to go there but also close to the serene and tranquil beaches if we wanted to stay away from the crowds. We were so happy we brought our binoculars to be able to see the wildlife in the water and the air! It would have been helpful to have towel racks in the bathrooms for wet towels, but it didn’t affect how much we enjoyed ourselves. Definitely would recommend this location and will consider it next year if it’s available!

Shop tll you drop with a view

Girlfriends trip to shop for Christmas while enjoying a beach view. My only issue was the 3rd bedroom. It turned out to be a “bunk” room, not a bedroom. The house was still wonderful and I would go again.

mini trip

We stayed for 4 days. A couple things we could have notified the manager on however we didn't want anyone coming in while we were gone. The main bedroom shower didn't drain well. Needs drano for sure. Temperature of the house was great. Loved the deck and seeing pelicans, and a dolphin. We didn't eat out much so would have been nice to have a few more dishes so we didn't have to wash so frequently. The TV in the living room - we couldn't get to work even after rebooting the router a few times. The manager said they had had a power failure the week before we got there and she could send the repair man to look at it, but we passed on that. The other TV's in the bedrooms worked fine. A couple things that would have been helpful to have are beach towels as we had to use the regular ones in the bathroom when we went to the beach. Another suggestion - lawn chairs would have been great to take out and sit on the deck. Overall experience was good and we enjoyed the area and our time there. Thank you. Alicia and family.

We enjoyed our stay. Location was great! Visited Fort Morgan, the beaches, rode the ferry, & shopped all over. The house was right on the bay which was nice to be able to see all the wildlife.

Bay view, you can watch dolphins, fish, and crabs all day.
Beach down the road was nice. Very relaxed and secluded. Not crowded as the gulf shore beaches.

Family Wedding Weekend

We came down for a wedding and needed somewhere for our extended family of 7 to stay. This property was perfect! It was very clean and had cute decor. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the wildlife. The outdoor shower was great after our family went to the beach so keep sand from getting everywhere.

Perfect getaway home

This house was perfect for our vacation. We wanted a change from the condos and crowded roads of Gulf Shores to something more private and quiet and this house was it! We were still close enough to get to the beaches and activities in the Gulf Shores area, but also enjoyed what Fort Morgan had to offer. The pier, though a little small, gave us some fun fishing and lots of marine life (we saw hermit crabs, big crabs, jelly fish, dolphins and stingrays from our dock!) The house had all of the necessities for home cooked meals. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and we would definitely come back again!

Pleasantly quiet

We stayed here while in town for a baseball tournament. It was a little ways away from all the hustle and bustle of the congested part of Gulf Shores. Which was perfectly fine with us. It was nice to be able to get to a quiet spot with some water. Swimming here isn’t ideal, as it’s not a beach setting. There’s rocks by the dock, which again was fine with us. There’s was plenty of fish caught while we were there. The kids loved it. The inside of the house was very nice. Looked to be remodeled recently, or newly built. We would stay here again.

Nice, clea, cool

The house was clean and cool especially in the heat! Area is more secluded so we didnt have to deal with a lot of people/noise. We prefered that. Store, beaches, and activities locally and easy to get to Only downside was the room with the bunk beds. It seemed to us smaller then we thought. Couldn't fit a grown adult but would be perfect for younger kids. Thankfullt the pull out couch worked perfectly We enjoyed it and would rent again

Best view on the Bay

Our stay was perfect. Everything was exactly as described on VRBO. We were blown away at the view when we saw the house. It was exceptionally clean and stocked with all the basics for cooking. Our host was incredibly responsive. The location was so peaceful. We will definitely be back again. It was the best family vacation I have ever been on. I just can’t say enough about it!
