Perfect location with pool when you dont want to go to the beach. Only complaint is the beds. If main beds were updated it would have been an amazing stay.
Our family had an amazing time at the this rental property! The heated pool was a hit with everyone, providing hours of fun and relaxation. The views of the lagoon and beach were beautiful. The spacious accommodations comfortably accommodated our large family and the walk to the beach was easy. Thank you for a memorable vacation for my family!
Perfect place for a group stay. We booked this home for the month of February with a group of friends.
Loved the location, quiet yet still close to everything in Gulf Shores.
One in our group worked remotely while there, the upstairs master suite was large enough for her to work and quiet.
The owners were wonderful to deal with.
The home perfect and loved the large rooms, location and amenities we would definitely stay here again.
There were ten of us and we really loved this location and the layout of the house. The lagoon was fun for the grandsons to go fishing and of course the beach is always great. Nice pool as well. We’d recommend it!
This location is great if your looking for a beach access close to home without the hassle of paying parking. We actually walked 8 mins to the closest beach access and it was worth it. We got our steps in and didnt have to pay for parking. I will say we were a big family with kids. The listing does say it is a 4 bedroom but it is actually 3 bedroom with an (4)open space with bunk beds. So no privacy for that room. Washer and dryer are also located in that open space which is not bad just have to walk through room to have access to the washer and dryer. Again not a deal breaker. We managed. Also, on our 2nd day one of the chairs in the living room was broken. My niece was trying to get her shoe from under the chair when the chair collapsed.looks like the chair was just propped on the 4th leg. No one was hurt and i was able to inform host that the chair had been broken prior to our stay. She was quick to respond and always messaged back within minutes. I would recommend this house who wanting something close to the beach. Kids also had fun in the shared pool.
Check in / out super easy. Property manager was easy to work with. Neighborhood quiet and relaxing. Home is comfy and cozy. Perfectly suited our needs for the week. Would definitely stay here again.
This was a great place. The main area had lots of room to socialize and watch football on the huge TV. The bedrooms were big too. It was a short walk to the beach and there are paved paths to get there. We are going to book again during the summer.
This is a very large unit and great for multiple families. Lots of room to spread out. Great pool, small hot tub and kids pool on site and a dock to walk down and catch blue crabs (chicken nuggets work well).
The location is close to town and only a 5 minute walk from the beach! VERY quiet at night and very relaxing.
Our only critique would be to update some of the appliances (dishwasher and dryer struggled a bit). For how nice a unit this is, a few updates and this would be a 5 star immaculate place to be . Also, having a vacuum for guests would be very nice to help us keep the unit clean during the stay, as you will track sand, since your at the beach.
All in all though, we can overlook some of the quirks since the location was so great and the unit was so big.
The house was gorgeous, the view was fantastic, the pool was steps away and it was a super short, safe walk to the beach! There was enough room for 6 adults and 3 kids to not feel cramped and on top of each other. The walk to the beach was easy and we felt safe walking with 4yrs, 8yrs and 9yrs old children. The owner is very nice and responds immediately to messages. We enjoyed the weekend so much, we asked if we could stay one more night, and she responded within 10 minutes to let us know that it was okay. One of the best family vacations we have had. I recommend booking this house for a larger family with a vacation budget. This house is as beautiful inside as it is outside. We also had a great time getting to know the neighbors!
We had a great stay in this home. We loved the lagoon views and short walk to the beach. The layout is perfect for large families with a very nice master suite on the main level and spacious rooms throughout. Overall, we had a wonderful experience.
This was our first time renting a beach house, the process and the communication with the home owner was excellent. The space was perfect for our family, location was perfect, not too long of a walk to the beach and having pool access was great too. We had a great beach vacation experience.
The house is in a good location, short walk to the beach, a very quiet place, BUT the cleanliness of the house is poor, coffee maker looks like it was never cleaned before, floor mats not cleaned, was trash in the drawers and sand from the previous guest in the bathrooms and rooms floors, the fridge does not cooled enough
This was our first time renting a house, in the past my family has stayed in condos. We are a large group, 7 adults and 5 children ages ranging 3-14.
This house is beautiful! Marcia and the property has set the standard for all our house rental expectations going forward. The house is away from the noise of the main road. The pier and lagoon is great to walk and visit early morning and at dusk.
The beach took us about 10 minutes to walk to, super easy walk even with a very tired toddler. Our parents always found easy parking right next to the public access beach we went to each day.
Marcia was very quick to respond and address any questions we had. That really made us feel even more welcome and valued at the house.
The pool was used by the kids each day and was great to have because it did rain a LOT while we were there and the beach had purple flags all week and a day of red flag.
We will definitely be staying in the future.
Owner was very quick to respond to questions. Dock in the back was awesome for adults and kids. Not a short walk to the beach, but not too far. The beach had plenty of room due to the fact that there aren't any high rise condos there. Overall, very pleased.
We had a great time with our family staying here. The owner was quick to respond with help when we needed it. The property was well maintained and the owner let us know when repairs or activities were occurring that might affect our stay. The only downside was something the owner had no control over, the renters (two separate parties) on the other side of our condo, kept blocking our side of the drive making it hard to get in and out, and taking over the single table and bbq area. It was easily resolved with a few conversations with our neighbors though. Overall a great stay.
Please read the description. Something I guess I didn't analyze as much as I should have. This is a THREE BEDROOM townhouse, not four. The "fourth" bedroom is a space at the top of the steps with a bunk bed in it. Which might be ok for some guests. We had our 3 year old and were planning on putting her in that "room". But with it being completely open to the stairs we had to make other arrangements. Also, when we moved the dresser to try and block the steps you could tell the maid didn't clean under there. There was dust and trash under it and the beds in that loft area. Not a deal breaker. The upstairs bed (bay side) was super comfortable though! We LIVED the location. A bit of a hike to the beach but it was fine. The drive to the main beach wasn't bad either. I liked that it was far away but close enough to everything. The property owner was great to work with a very responsive. We'd come back if it were a 4 bedroom! :)

The property outside was very unattractive. The inside had not been cleaned.
Wonderful place, very relaxing. The only reason I didn't give all 5 stars was that the 4th bedroom with the bunks was not a full bedroom. It was an open loft area. While it didn't bother anyone in our group I feel like it might have made a difference to someone else. Owner was quick to answer any questions. Would definitely stay again!!!
This was perfect for one or even two families because of the 2 master beds. All the rooms were huge and the views from the balcony were beautiful. It was a perfectly beachy house, clean, and comfortable. We were very pleased.

About the host
Hosted by Marcia Stewart
I live in the county and work in the next county. I own another unit in Florida and manage my subdivision of over 700 homes. The primary comment that I hear from renters is that I respond quickly. If you have any questions, please contact me. I pride myself on renting a clean and well maintained unit. I manage the unit myself, so I make sure everything is in working order. Since I live locally and this is my personal unit, I know quite a bit about the the local area. Just ask!!
Why they chose this property
I purchased this property because it has enough bedrooms for a large group, faces the waterfront, access to water skiing and fishing in the Lagoon, has a pool and is NOT a condo. I also love that I can grill on my property and that I do not have to deal with the parking fees and limited parking spots that occurs at condo units.
What makes this property unique
The pool and hot tub is only shared by 8 units. It has children's and separate adult pool. You can view the water from three balconies. My friends and family like to fish off the dock that is on the property.
