About this property

IF YOU LIKE PRIVACY, YOU’LL LOVE THIS HOME! Conveniently located on Little Lagoon, one block from the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. Close to some of the best restaurants, shopping, and activities. It sits on 1.3 acres in the West Beach area of Gulf Shores with waterfront and small beach on Little Lagoon.

There are activities for everyone; private salt water pool with hot tub, a private beach area on Little Lagoon with a hammock, tables, chairs, and kayaks. There is plenty of room for relaxing, swimming, and fishing and the property is landscaped to be very private unlike most houses at the beach. There is a propane grill, outdoor ping pong table, bean bag toss, axe throwing game,two bicycles, and plenty of beach/pool gear. Fully stocked kitchen and baths with full size soaps and shampoos, hair dryers, and makeup mirrors. Just bring your clothes!

The house has six bedrooms and three full baths. There are two bedrooms with king beds on the main floor with one full bath and four bedrooms with two full baths on the upper level. The large, primary bedroom is on the upper level and has a king bed, private bath, and an attached bunk room that sleeps 4 kids. Also on the upper level is a king bedroom with a rollaway, and another bedroom with two queen beds.

Little Lagoon is 12 miles long, about one mile across and connected to the Gulf of Mexico. It offers great boating, awesome fishing, and is fun to explore. No need to rent kayaks as we have three at the lagoon for your use. There is plenty of parking for the cars and a boat. The pristine beach on the Gulf is just a 5 minute walk with provided beach cart or you can put your gear in the car and park right at the public access site.

You will love this property!

The best VRBO stay we have ever had!

Our stay was amazing from the location, view, pool and all the amenities. Starting with the booking process, as soon as I booked this VRBO the hostess contacted me within 10 minutes. From start to finish the hostess was the best I've ever dealt with! Before we even got there, she sent us a PDF file of recommendations of restaurants and places to see. The line of communication was great and if we needed something they responded quickly. The amenities were great; the house was supplied with almost everything you could need. Go buy some groceries and your set for your stay. If you are a DoorDasher or Uber Eats family, both apps have a ton of choices that deliver to this location. During our stay there were days with red flag warnings, so we enjoyed the pool area, games and lagoon area with the kayaks. At night we enjoyed watching tv, the fireplace or just sitting outside. When we left feeling relaxed and ready to come back for our next vacation. This place is a must for a relaxing vacation!

Perfect Spring break getaway

Great place for a big group! Wonderful location (near beach but not on busy main road) with every amenity you could want. Pool and hot tub were perfect for our group. Great kitchen for eating in with larger group. Kayaking off boardwalk on inlet was a blast. Plenty of parking. One of the cleanest properties we have stayed in! Porch overlooking pool was perfect for grandparents too!

Our Own Little Resort!

Three generations of family stayed in this home during a week where four of the days were double-red flags, making us very thankful for the lovely pool area of the home along with the outdoor games provided. The view of the lagoon was beautiful, and our grandson enjoyed fishing and kayaking right in our own "backyard!"

Great house, location and Host!!

This house was amazing! Very clean, well stocked and well organized. The host is also the kindest, most responsive host that I have EVER dealt with through any rental. We did not have any issues with the home but text a couple times throughout our stay with questions and received an immediate response! Check in was a breeze. You could rent this house, buy your groceries and never leave the house throughout your stay! Fully stocked kitchen. The pool area is amazing, equipped with a locking/safety gate, ample lighting, floats and plenty of outdoor seating. This is where we spent a huge part of our trip! You can fish from the bank. Hang out on the bottom level of the house outside. We ended up not using the kayaks but they are there along with seating down by the water. Drive to the beach is very minimal. One of our teenagers even rode the bike to the beach a few times. This house truly has it all and every single person said they would stay here again!

Beautiful Home with great pool

Our family of fourteen with 5 babies between 6 months and two years old all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you could ever want and it was so comfortable with beautiful views. The communication was excellent from booking to checkout. Don’t miss this house. Really enjoyed it and hope to be back very soon.

Great family vacation

Stayed for the last week. When we got there we had a few questions on how a few things worked. Response time was super fast! The house and pool area were absolutely beautiful! The kids loved using the trap in lagoon area trying to catch crabs and played ping pong every night! Kitchen was so well stocked, pots and pans, dishes, glasses…you name it she has it. Toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and so much more were provided here. Other places I’ve stayed have start up supplies then you have to buy your own. Great experience in all ways! Thanks for everything!

The pool.....AH-MAZING- SUPER comfy beds!

We had an absolutely amazing week! The house was very clean and comfortable! Upscale with amenities for every age group. The beds....so comfy! The kitchen is stocked with more than you will ever need allowing us eat in more than we planned! This was great so we could take full advantage of the outdoor space. We spent hours in the pool! It was like our private little Oasis. The landscaping makes this home very private. The homeowner, Cindy, checked in with us when we arrived to make sure that we were comfortable. My niece left her bag at the house after we headed back to Ohio. Cindy made sure that it was ours and then shipped to us. 5 STARS!! Thank you Cindy!

Family vacation- 40th anniversary

A vacation that will be talked about for years to come. We had everything we needed for a week getaway. The grandkids lived by the pool and loved catching frogs at night. The lagoon was fun to fish and see crabs. We had a few issues, but the owners were quick to respond and attempted to fix what they could. The beach was only a 10 minute walk away. Overall, a good vacation and a great place to stay!

The home is very well appointed and clean. It is simply beautiful! The kids spent hours and hours in the pool and fishing in the lagoon. The location is perfect for a short walk to the beach. We had such a good time and made memories with our family that will last a lifetime!

Family vacation

We have stayed at various homes with the family over the last twenty years and your home was at the top of the list for everyone. Close to the beach, entertainment and restaurants, but quiet and peaceful if we stayed at the house. All of the supplies and kitchen equipment well above average. Would highly recommend this home to families.

Amazing Pool!

The property was just as listed. It was clean, spacious, and comfortable for our group of 6 adults and 4 kids. The privacy of the pool area was an extra plus. It is a 5-minute walk to the beach, which felt longer on hot days. But definitely walkable. There were so many fun extras, we enjoyed the kayaks, bikes, and ping pong table. We had a few questions during our stay, Cindy was always available to help us out! I would highly recommend this property!

LOVED this vacation home!

It is a GORGEOUS home! Perfect in every way! Large rooms with everything you need! Kitchen is well stocked! Loved the huge washing machine & dryer. And the home is situated back from the street, with a large circular driveway. And it was VERY easy to communicate with the owners. They answered my calls/questions immediately. (I gave four stars to the overall cleanliness originally, but after we called Cindy, she had her cleaning crew come back to do a few minor things for us! So that was awesome!!! In their defense, we might have rushed them because we were anxious to start our vacation!)

Wonderful Property

Stayed here for a recent vacation with our children and grandkids. It was lovely. The pool and hot tub were used very frequently. We had quite a bit of room. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked well. The grandkids loved fishing and kayaking in the lagoon, table tennis, the use of the two bikes, the beach, area activities, etc. I would suggest this for any large group. Thanks. . . .

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Boswell

We visited the area 8 years ago and fell in love with Gulf Shores. We have another vacation rental in Harbor Springs, Michigan that is listed on Home Away #3663428. It's a very beautiful area in northern Michigan on Little Traverse Bay.

What makes this property unique

Our home is very unique in that we are in the middle of all the action, yet our pool and lagoon are very private with lots of lush landscaping. It is a perfect getaway for couples, families, or golf outings.
