The best experience

Leaving a 5 star review seems so underwhelming, this property and this host deserves so many more than that. First, the pictures simply do not do this house justice. It was beyond gorgeous. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by the size, as it felt much bigger than the pictures made it look. The beds… THE BEDS! SO comfortable. I cannot tell you the last time that I slept so well. Every room had a smart tv with every streaming app, which was cool, but we didn’t spend much time watching tv. The screened in porch was one of our favorite features. We enjoyed sitting outside each evening with a cup of tea, and our kids got a thrill out of all the cute little frogs and lizards that we saw up close! This house is SUPER close to one of the pools, which was very convenient for the days that we weren’t able to swim in the ocean with the rip currents. On that note, the beach access is close by, you can walk it with ease, or drive. The host was an excellent communicator. We did need to make one communication during our stay, and she replied almost immediately. In the days leading up to our trip, she replied frequently, and answered all of our questions, so we felt well prepared for our trip down. If you’re looking for a clean, beautiful, comfortable, amazing experience for a fun family trip, BOOK THIS PROPERTY!

The house was in great location…conveniently located close enough to go into Gulf Shores, but far enough away to enjoy quiet and less crowding. We absolutely loved that we could take our dog on the beach with us for our evening beach walks. Tacky Jacks allows dogs on the patio, which was great while we waited for our unit to be ready for checkin. That is also a nice place to watch the sun rise….beautiful view. Highly recommend getting a golf cart, that was definitely worth it! I loved having the screened in porch to sit outside and read and not be worried about bug bites. Also, highly recommend Jesse’s on the Bay for dinner, but make a reservation. Stunning views from the patio and back part of the restaurant. Honestly, there are plenty of local food options that were great, and didn’t require us to get in all the traffic and chaos at Gulf Shores. We really enjoyed this cottage and the community.

Great beach house

The property was very clean and easy to get to. There was lots of room to spread out. The beach is close by and the two pools were great! We loved that it is in an area that is less busy.

The "PERFECT" Beach house!!

Our trip was the week of May 19. Weather was amazing. This house was amazing. Cleanest we have ever stayed at. Everything was well thought out. Lots of room for our party of 5 and little fur baby. We are booking again as we leave. There is no grill... not a problem we just packed a weber but everything and I do mean everything could not have been better. Owners were very accomidating. Looking forward to next year already. Book with confidence. Tell them BrianO sent ya!

Quiet, secluded, and relaxing

Amy is a wonderful host, responsive to all our questions. The property is in a very quiet community set in the wildlife refuge. The home is a very coze and relaxing place to use as home base during your vacation. It is fully provisioned and has many thoughtful little touches like tabletop outlets/USB ports in the living room and bedrooms. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Epitome of relaxation

There couldn't be a more perfect little property to escape to! So glad that we were able to stay at Amy's property! It made for the perfect trip. From the booking/ payments/ communication/ coordination - Amy was prompt in responding and made sure that we had all our questions answered ahead of our trip. She couldn't have made the process any easier! The property itself was just the perfect spot. Quiet and relaxing... plenty of room for 4 guests and 2 pets.. with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Everything was clean and ready for us when we got there! The location, in my mind, cannot be beat for someone who wants a quite place, easy beach access (both bay and gulf), plenty of fishing spots, and great pools for outdoor fun. Already looking forward to my next trip back!

Amazing Vacation Rental

We had such a great stay here. The place is beautiful, close to the pool, and a short drive to the public beach. Amy was a wonderful host and replied to messages in a timely manner. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to the beach.

Great Beach Cottage

We enjoyed a long, relaxing weekend at the beach. The cottage was clean and well kept. Listing was accurate and community was nice. We did rent a golf cart to drive to the beach and feel like this was a good choice. I love the cottage and beach are pet friendly. Our dogs enjoyed as well. We would definitely stay here again.
