Imagine yourself being right on the beach away from the busy condos in a private home all to yourself. Imagine having happy hour and dinners on the deck at sunset while you see and hear the waves of the blue ocean. Imagine being able to watch your family play in the sand and fish in the ocean while you are sipping a drink on your balcony. If you stay at Marilyn's Cottage this will be your reality.

Marilyn's Cottage is a 3-bedroom 3-bath Gulf-front single-family home on the beach that sleeps 10-12 on West beach Gulf Shores a few houses past the lagoon bridge. The main living area boasts airy 20-foot ceilings and the second floor has generous 10-foot ceilings. Because of this Marilynn’s Cottage is extra light and bright and seems larger than most 3-bedroom spaces.

The house is perfect for multi-generational or family friends with kids. Each of the three bedrooms has its own bathroom a seldom-seen feature for a 3-bedroom you don’t have to share your bathroom with the kids while you’re on vacation! Upstairs in the primary bedroom there is an amazing view from its private balcony. This is our favorite sunset happy hour spot! In the upstairs bunk room there are two sets of bunk beds - that sleeps up to six people along with an en-suite bath with tub.

In the main level guest bedroom there is easy access to the living space without having to climb any stairs. There is one sleeper sofas in the living room perfect for you to put those early risers or ones that make a lot of noise in the morning before you have had your first cup of coffee. There is plenty of furniture on the deck - along with a large picnic table for you and your family to enjoy. Finally there is a convenient shower right off the beach - so you can wash the sand and salt water off before coming back inside to relax with your favorite beverage.--------

Of course not everyone likes to cook when they are on vacation but the people who stay at this cozy cottage are famous for cooking up meals in our well-equipped kitchen. There is one stove microwave dishwasher blender toaster coffee maker and Keurig and a crock pot. There is a wet bar that is perfect for making iced drinks out of the way of the kitchen. The washer and dryer are large capacity - which is great when those laundry stacks start to pile up because you are relaxing. There is also a highchair baby gate and pack-n-play. A special feature of the house is our toy closet with trains legos books games and dolls.

Marilyn's Cottage is located on West Beach right on the gulf within walking distance to the lagoon pass bridge. It is so fun to go and watch all the water sports and fishing.

Imagine the sound of waves gently lapping on the shore and the most gorgeous sunsets mother nature has to offer. This home is dedicated to the memory of our mother Marilynn who passed away in 2014. She would have loved this house. Now it is time to sit back and soak in the panoramic views from this picturesque beach house.
