Very nice stay
We stayed here during a trip to Gulf Shores for a high school softball tournament. It was myself, my daughter and another player on her team. It was perfect for the 3 of us, and not too far from any of the parks or the main area of Gulf Shores (The Hangout). We'd definitely book here again!

Great cottage in a great spot!
We stayed two weeks and had a great time. The cottage is fantastic - big, well equipped, and right by the water and lagoon. We loved searching for shells and walking along the beautiful beach. We'll be back!

Late Vacation
Great location and beautiful cottage. Everything was just almost perfect - turned a little cool and rainy the last couple of days. Have to agree with the last guests that left a review - the couch really does need to be replaced. Other than that GREAT.

Thanksgiving Stay
We had a wonderful stay at this property. Everything was clean and well stocked with dishes and cooking items. Only disappointment was the beach was closed at our access spot but that was beyond anyone’s control. The couch was a little worn but nothing terrible. We would definitely come back again! Communication with the property manager was great!

Great Trip
Loved the location, pool, interior of home. Couch needs to be replaced but everything else was perfect! Could use a floor length mirror, as well. Balcony is great and I loved the blinds.
