This 4-bedroom Gulf Shores beach house features a wrap-around deck with unobstructed ocean views, an 8-hole putt-putt course, and all the coastal charm you need for the perfect family getaway.

Spend your days between the beach and the deck, challenge the kids to mini golf or cornhole, fire up the grill for sunset dinners, and let the sound of the waves be your soundtrack.

THE SPACE

Floor-to-ceiling windows frame postcard-worthy Gulf views from the moment you walk in.

The open-concept main floor flows seamlessly from kitchen to dining to living room, keeping everyone connected whether you're prepping breakfast burritos, dealing cards at the table, or sinking into the cognac leather sectional for movie night on the 65" Smart TV.

Outside, your wrap-around deck is the heart of the home. Lounge in the Adirondack chairs with your morning coffee, gather around the outdoor dining table for grilled seafood dinners, and watch the sun dip into the Gulf with a cold drink in hand.

When you're ready for the beach, it's right there—just a few steps and you're toes-in-the-sand.

The real surprise? Your own 8-hole putt-putt course and cornhole setup under the house.
Perfect for post-beach entertainment, friendly competition, or keeping the kids busy while you finish that chapter.

Rinse off the sand in the outdoor shower and decide whether your next move is mini golf, the beach, or back to the deck.

Great stay

We were 5 friends staying together - 2 couples and a single. Property worked great for us. Nice beach access. It's a bit of a drive to Gulf Shores (30 minutes) but we consider that a benefit. Nice, quiet and residential where the house is. Hosts were very communicative and responsive.

Nice place! good location, comfortable beds, very convenient outdoor showers, the mini gulf area was great for the young kids. The only problem I had was the ac couldn't keep up and let the house get hot at evenings and couches had dog hair all over but overall its a good place

Fall Beach Trip

It was a wonderful time of year to visit. Coffee and reading on the deck every am, sand and sun all day, cocktails and company in the evening. Perfect get-together with adult kids and friends. Place was fully stocked with essentials and lots of extras for enjoying the beach. We will be back next fall.

Just a great stay!

Location turned out to be great. Short drive to my 2 favorite restaurants, and golf/Kiva Dunes. Views of the ocean even better than expected. Walk to the beach was shorter than last 2 condos that were ‘on the beach’. And really nice small/extra touches…a full spice rack, assorted k cup coffee choices etc. just a very nice stay. Joel👍

Outstanding Home!!

Our family stayed at the home in Gulf Shores AL. The home was everything we could’ve hoped for! Plenty of room, clean, and well stocked. We were steps from the beach! Highly recommend Doug and Rose to book with! He was very responsive to messages and checked on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was up to our expectations. We cannot wait to book our next trip with them!

Family vacation

My family and I really enjoyed staying here. The house was clean and comfortable. When we weren't at the beach, we were playing the mini putt putt course or corn hole that the house offered. There is also a storage room full of beach supplies. The patio and many of the rooms had nice views of the gulf. The neighborhood was quite and the beach wasn't very busy for our trip in May, which was nice. No issues with getting in or out of the place and the owners were excellent at communication. We will definitely plan on booking again.

Family Gettaway

I was looking for a place that would allow a larger dog and room for family members if they were able to join us. This beach house fit the bill and has everything you would need to enjoy yourself on the beach. They have beach chairs, boogie boards and even a wagon to carry everything. The beach house is beautiful, with three king size beds and two bunkbeds and the kitchen is stocked with anything you'll find in your own kitchen, even an instant pot. I was going to bring mine from home but didn't have room for it so I was very excited to see one there. This was the most relaxing vacation I've had in a long time. It felt like my home away from home. Checking in and out was the easiest ever. Thank you for sharing your beach house with us.
