Fall break at the beach.

The property was just as advertised, beautiful home just steps from the boardwalk. It was the perfect place for my family. Spacious bedrooms and the kitchen was great. It was fully stocked with any thing you could need. The only complaint I have is that when we arrived all three of the trash cans under the house were overflowing and there were several bags of trash on the ground. We had to take it to the street on our first night so we would have somewhere to put our trash. Other than that, everything was great.

Perfection

The location could not have been better, close enough to visit everything, far enough away to not have the amount of people in Gulf Shores. The house was clean, all the bedrooms were comfortable and tidy. All of the bathrooms were a good size. Every morning you could get up and look out the front and see the ocean. Our group really enjoyed this location.

Nice property, fantastic location

While the weather could have been warmer during our stay, we still had a great time. Nice being able to walk out your door, down the boardwalk to the beach ... perhaps about 75 yards or so. Had to call maintenance for an issue with the lock; he was at the property in about 30 minutes and was professional and was able to make a quick repair for us. Would rent again.

You couldn’t ask for a better location with the boardwalk being right next to the home, giving you access to the beach in just a short walk. We have stayed in this neighborhood before and enjoy how quiet it is. Our family enjoyed our time here.

Great location so close to the beach

Fantastic home in a great location! The walk to the beach was barely longer than a beachfront home thanks to being right next to the beach walkway. The house was clean and comfy, and we loved the ice maker in the kitchen! The only things I’d recommend to the owners would be an outside shower head for rinsing off after beach trips, and a gas grill would be great. Maybe some “house” beach chairs. My family loved this property and we would definitely rent it again. We also really liked eating at the Sassy Bass Grill nearby.

Amazing Location

I have to say, this may be my favorite house we've stayed at through VRBO. The location was amazing, it was never noisy, the beach only steps away. From the kitchen and living room, the windows provide a view of the Gulf. The house itself was clean, in good condition. This location was far enough from the business of Gulf Shores, yet within easy driving distance to anywhere we wanted to go. My only recommendations are to bring extra blankets if you get cold easily at night. I would highly recommend this property to anyone. I hope to return.

Location is perfect!

The location was second to none and had plenty of beds for our group. We rent from VRBO frequently, so here are some tips for people renting this place: 1. be careful of the fees. They were significantly more than other places we've stayed. 2. There are two charcoal grills available for use that aren't listed in the amenities. 3. We emailed ahead of time, asking if there was a crockpot or griddle on site to help us with packing. We were told there wasn't. We get there and there was a crockpot, two griddles and an instapot. Knowing this would have helped us pack. 4. All of the shelving (except 1) on the door of the fridge is completely broken off, thus significantly reducing the amount the fridge can hold. We had 14 people staying there and had to go to the grocery store 3 times instead of once because there was just no room. 5. There is a GIGANTIC awesome built in ice machine -- don't buy ice. Wish we would have known that. 5. We regularly use VRBO and this was the first time toilet paper, paper towel, dish soap, laundry soap, hand washing soap, kleenex and basic counter top cleaning solution were NOT provided. Again, add that into your costs and plan accordingly for your first night -- this presented a problem our first night. 6. Note the number of double, not queen beds -- depending on how many adults you have, this could present problems. 7. The master bath shower door has many gaps and leaks horribly -- put more towels down.

Great family vacation

The house was in great working order. Favorite things, short walk to the beach and the ice machine! All my kids & grandkids came. And the dog! Plenty of space to gather in the living area. and to have some alone time . The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, did I mention the ice machine?? There was a charcoal grill. Only thing I would suggest is a ceiling fan on the porch. The view was perfect for us from the porch and was still able to see dolphins. Definitely would revisit.

The property is very nice, just a short walk to the beach. The kitchen is very well stocked! In my humble opinion , I feel the cleaning service doesn’t do as well as they should. We had sand in our “clean” bed the first night. ( yes , before getting into the bed) . Sand in the bathtub, not sure any cleaning fee was used for cleaning!

Great house, a few little annoyances

Loved the location and layout of the house. One really big issue though is the size and comfort of the beds. The only king sized bed is in the master and all of the other rooms have at most full size (maybe one queen but it didn’t seem like it). The strange thing is that there’s plenty of room for queens. A decent memory foam queen and a platform can be had for $500-700 so it’s an easy fix. Oh one more weird thing too, no locks on the bedroom doors, we definitely found that odd.
