Family Getaway

The home is wonderfully secluded, offering excellent privacy while still being close enough to Gulf Shores Parkway and Orange Beach for dining and shopping. The bedrooms are spacious, and there's a great living area perfect for hosting large group dinners. Outdoors, the property is equally impressive, featuring three picnic tables and additional seating. The private beach is just a short 0.4-mile walk away. I highly recommend this home for both large groups and smaller families.

It was a great place to spend a week at the beach! The house was plenty big to accommodate our group of 9. Just a short walk to beach access. Will definitely see if this house is available for future trips!

Call break

The house was well stocked with cooking needs. It was clean. The beds were comfortable. Just the right size for 6 adults and 6 children. The neighborhood was quiet. The walk to the beach wasn’t bad.

Good House

The house was great, not too long of a walk to the beach, the room with bikes and beach toys was a nice surprise. Kitchen had a good assortment of utensils, dishes, pots and pans. Bathrooms could have used more towels, there wasn’t enough for each member of our party to have a towel.
