About this property

Tide & Timber

  • Welcome to a truly one-of-a-kind beach retreat—where modern luxury meets timeless coastal nostalgia. Thoughtfully renovated with careful attention to detail, this home blends the charm of the ’70s and ’80s with the comfort and style today’s travelers expect.

    Wake up to stunning waterfront views of Little Lagoon, visible from the main living areas and the private heated and cooled pool, perfect for year-round enjoyment. The property offers nearly 100 feet of waterfront on Little Lagoon, complete with a small white-sand beach—an ideal spot for relaxing, launching kayaks, or watching the sun set over the water. Brand new pier and boat house!

    With 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, the home easily accommodates up to 12 guests, offering generous common spaces and a well-equipped, oversized kitchen designed for gathering.

    Step outside and experience the unique character of the surrounding area—an inviting blend of preserved history, natural beauty, and classic coastal spirit. Plenty of outdoor seating with a porch swing, tall Adirondack chairs and picnic table on the porch, as well as several other Adirondack chairs, and a second picnic table under the house. Several pool loungers and table and chairs also await on the pool deck. For adventure, enjoy the kayaks, paddleboard, and bicycles provided, or hop onto the picturesque bike trail just across the street.

    Whether you’re seeking relaxation, recreation, or a nostalgic slice of old-school coastal charm, this exceptional home provides the perfect setting.

The pool was really nice and having the kayaks and paddle board was a plus. We played lots of cornhole as well. House was so well updated and clean we enjoyed our stay and would certainly come back. It was also nice having the beach just a short drive down the road. A beach that was not busy or packed with people. Our teenage boys loved the pool table. Kitchen was well stocked with spices, plates and cups. Plenty of pool towels. Great hosts that were in constant communication with us.

We can't say enough about our stay. Paul was the best host I have ever worked with on VRBO. He hustled to get us in early knowing we were driving down from Wisconsin without it even being requested. He took care of any issues that came up quickly, a few times before we even noticed. Paul was responsive and just a pleasure to work with.The house itself was amazing, it was so quiet and the view is amazing. The outside seating provided was comfortable and allowed everyone to spread out. The pool table and pool were big hits for our family. Spring break with a heated pool was a must and the kids never left the pool unless they were forced to. The small beach in front of the house was great, it allowed the kids to get in the water and change things up a bit.If you are looking for a quiet location away from the business of Gulf Shores this one is for you.
