Great location!

This home was perfect for our first family vacation as a family of 4! The proximity to the beach was perfect! There was a restaurant and ice cream shop 2 minutes away which was great! It was 30 minutes from Gulf Shores where we spent 2 days as well. We were able to take the ferry to Dauphine Island one day which was a fun rreat

Much Needed Relaxation

We had a very relaxing week. My husband played a round of golf every day and I relaxed. We enjoyed walking on the beach at the end of every day. Great location and only a few steps from the beach.
