Cozy and Quiet

Everything was as advertised. The house was clean and the pool was a nice feature. You do have to pay extra to have it heated but is well worth it if the weather is cooler. The home sits on a great lot with little traffic. We enjoyed our stay. Our only complaint is the washer and dryer are downstairs in an outdoor closet.

Cozy lagoon house

Enjoyed the house and view of the lagoon. The kitchen was nicely stocked. It was a very comfortable home. Liked the location as it was a bit farther from the touristy things. It had a nice fenced area for our dogs but first we had to clean up lots of poop from previous guests.

Great location!

At this house you’re getting a great location and a short walk to the beach. The pool was very nice and clean. The dock was nice to fish off of even if we didn’t have much success this time around. The underside of the house pretty much became our family’s hang out and the out door shower was a blessing to have for sure. The only downsides was lack of shade by pool and the dock, lack of lighting by the pool. The top step coming down the back by the pool was dangerous, and the lack of a gate at the top to keep your dog from running down. If you try to communicate to the place through VRBO they don’t respond so if it’s important just call the number. We when through Vrbo to communicate and didn’t get a response we made due no big deal but if it was that would have been irritating.

Family Vacation to our favorite beach

Comfortable and well equipped minus outdoor seating for porches and pool. The walk to the beach is easy and feels private. And the view of the sunset is amazing. We’ve stayed here twice and would highly recommend.

Terrific pet-friendly Place!

We visited with our dog Pelham for a vacation in Gulf Shores. Clean and comfortable house with its own pier and private pool, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable, and there was plenty of hot water for showers. We're already looking forward to our next visit to Little Egret!

Great house with pool for small group.

We enjoyed our stay at the Little Egret. The pool was refreshing after a day of walking at the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our seafood. Sitting on the balcony porch and watching the sunset was my favorite feature.

Dogs love water

Nice house, floors easy to sweep up sand and dog fur. Nice fenced in area for dog to 'go'. Beautiful sunsets. Unfortunately neighbor's using their deck kept me out of the pool. Did 'fish' a live crab out of the pool - which then scampered to the lagoon. Dogs loved swimming in the lagoon. Loved watching the pelicans.

Overall great place to stay and location was excellent

This property was perfect for us as a family. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock in the back of the house and the heated pool was a nice addition as well. It's just far enough away from all the commercial stuff to be nice and quiet and without a ton of traffic, but still close enough to have a short drive to almost anything you could ask for. A short walk to the beach was great as well. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice stay, great location

We enjoyed this property. It was the perfect size for our family of 4 and it is the perfect property if you are bringing a dog. The deck and fence is set up to be able to easily let your dog in and out without having to worry about them running off. The property was nicely updated. A little more attention could be paid to the cleaning. I am pretty particular and there was some details missed. Overall it was a great stay.

This property met all our expectations!! It was perfect! Having the fishing dock was a huge hit.

The views of the lagoon was spectacular & everyone had so much fun fishing on the dock. It also has a little beach area that the kids could wade into the water & discover the ocean life. I would recommend this property for any family.

My family and I enjoyed our vacation at Gulf Shores. The home we stayed in was exactly what we needed to have a relaxing time. The home was nice and clean. It provided all the comforts of home. We loved the ability to relax in the private pool. It was nice that the property had beach chairs to use and it was a short walk to the beach.
