STAY HERE!!!
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. From the check in to cleanliness everything was 5 STAR! Owners are absolutely amazing and communication was stellar! We stayed here for a week of softball tournaments. Our family had plenty of room. The pier was the highlight! Caught catfish, trout, redfish and mullet from the pier. Saw dolphins twice. Was told they usualy come through at 6am and 6pm. We saw them at 5:45pm one evening!! We will be staying here again at some point!!

For the most part everything was fine I was trying to help out the morning I was leaving taking bed sheets off beds and found live and dead bed bugs. I had to leave pillows and covers that was used on the beds that had bed bugs so it wouldn’t be transferred back to my home. I reached out to the owner and Vrbo neither one could get ahold of owner for a refund since we are going to have to replace pillows and bedding er had to leave behind. I wanted to leave this review so everyone would be aware of the bed bugs before renting this home.

Best place to stay in Gulf Shores!
This was our second year in a row at this house and we already miss it. It’s located on the most peaceful little road,r right on the river. The house is huge! Plenty of room for the whole family!

Home away from home
This was a super easy rental! We have stayed in vacation rentals many times, and this was one of the better ones! The house is very homey; it feels more like a visit to grandma's house than a rental property, which was great for us. Everything was clean and comfy. The wifi worked great, and everything was easy to find. The neighborhood was really peaceful and quiet. I would definitely stay there again!

We loved this property! There was plenty of room for our family of 8. Fishing off of the private pier was the highlight of the trip for our oldest. We can’t wait for our next trip to this location.
