Sitting On The Dock

Great house. Five separate bedrooms with each having their own bathroom, plus one extra bathroom. Laundry room, ice maker, oven, grills, two refrigerators, everything you would need. We finished our second stay here and it was great. Clean, quiet and well stocked. I highly recommend this property.

Annual family beach vacation

This was the first time we had stayed in Gulf Shores, and we loved this house! The area was so quiet! Access to the beach was easy, and the pool was a great added feature! My boys loved to fish off the dock, too. The ice maker quit working during our stay, and the owner quickly sent someone to repair it. It was a great vacation!

Great place for our family

It is a great lay-out for our 14 family members. Cocktail pool was enjoyed by all. Well stocked. With very few exceptions it is in fine condition. It had everything we needed and more. Beach access is a bit of a challenge, but we got there. Our group would like to return.

Perfect stay for families

Great location, great layout, great amenities. Far enough from the hussle of downtown but close enough to run in for supplies if needed. We really enjoyed staying on the lagoon side as it gave us additional water fun and wildlife spotting. Kids caught a crab off the pier and we saw dolphins across the road in the gulf (close and easy access). The open concept layout is perfect for the whole family to get together and each bedroom having its own bathroom was great.

Little Lagoon

This house was perfect for my family. There were 13 of us (8 adults and 5 kids). We had best of both worlds, the beach just across the street and the lagoon in the back yard with a very nice pier for fishing. The pool may be small, but it was a huge hit for the kids. It was fully equipped with all the essentials plus extras. We really enjoyed our week and plan to return in the future!

Great Stay

Home set up was perfect for our family. The kitchen felt like home with the all of the things we use in our own home....including a cajun feel. The dock is one of the nicest we've had access to at any of the properties we've been to. The only thing missing was a cover but there is plenty of cover on the back porch. The small pool was perfect for our little ones. This is an area that we have stayed in before and we really like the privacy and less crowded beach. The walk to the beach was a little farther than we'd hoped but overall a great week.

Very Good

Most everything was as described, (except for the swings). The location is great, and there was room for all my family. The (5) bedrooms are great for a big family, (the beds need some attention, mattress are getting a little worn. Everything is in working order, and the one issue with a toilet was taken care of with a call to Ms. Sonya, very quickly. A great place for a large family to stay and un-wind. Thanks to the owner for the good experience for our family to all be able to stay in one house. Would stay here again if we are able. Thanks again for letting us enjoy our get away.

Great Family Vacation Rental

Everything you need is right there. Very close to everything but far enough not to be in the craziness. Plenty of room for everyone not to be ontop of eachother. Beach is great and right across the street, it wasn't to crowded in our area at all. The Lagoon was perfect for kayaking, fishing, swimming and right out the back door. The pool is a little small for adults but the kids loved it and was a good alternative not to go to the beach everyday all day. Plenty of linens, fully stocked kitchen, we didn't miss anything. We bought groceries for a week and was able to store and cook everything.

House for 13

The house accommodated us very well. There were a few issues which were taken care in a very timely manner. The ice machine was a hit as well as the amount of bathrooms. The wrap around porch with overhang and with pool was a hit with teens as well as the little ones. The open space kitchen/living area is great. We cook and eat together. My son had a great time with the crab pots. I would recommend this house for a nice vacation. The owners really try hard to please their guests.

First Time Gulf Shores Visit

Our entire family was able to go to Gulf Shores for the first time on a special family vacation. The rental experience with Sonya the owner was very good. She was always very prompt about answering our questions right away and was quick to resolve any concerns that we encountered. The property is beautiful and the covered porch overlooking the lagoon is fabulous. We were able to sit and relax and watch several sunsets over the lagoon. With five bedrooms and six bathrooms everyone had plenty of space to spread out. The house is also located a short drive away from the “busier” area of Gulf Shores which was nice. Sonya was very nice to work with on our first home rental.

Beautiful home perfect for large families

This home was the best rental we have had in the Gulf Shores area after several trips each year for the past 6 years. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with all utensils, dishes and linens that you could possibly need. There was no need to pack any extras with us or make a trip to Wal-Mart to purchase the usual necessities to cook with for the week. The home has plenty of room for our individual families to break away and and have down time with out disturbing everyone else in the process. Mrs Sonya was amazing to work with and made sure we had no issues with the rental. The only down side is that we loved it so much that some of the adults cried when it was time to leave instead of just the kids!

The Dock was a great property

We had a party of 11 aging from 4 months to 89 years and we all had plenty of room. The bathroom with each room was amazing. We never ran out of hot water!! The ice maker was a great added bonus. We all enjoyed the kayak and the dock! They had everything well stocked. We didn’t need anything for the kitchen and loved the two fridges foe our large party. They also offered stiff for the baby, a pack and play high chair and Bumbe. The only negatives was the queen bed mattress was very uncomfortable you rolled into the middle and sunk, definitely needs a new mattress, the air temperature fluctuated in each room. Some were freezing and some were so hot you couldn’t hardly stand it at night. Mostly the queen bedroom and the master. There is no access to the beach across the street without going on private property and we were told the beach was private also. You have to go to the beach access and it is not in walking distance and the parking was always full. But we loved the bay and the pool and spent a lot of time at both instead of the beach. Overall I would give a great review of the property location and very spacious. Just need a few updates like mattress and the air conditioner.

Loved the house and the view

We decided to rent a house this year instead of a condo and are so happy that we did. There were 4 of us couples (all cousins). With some of our children coming in and out to stay. First of all, we had enough parking which was awesome. We cook every meal and underneath the porch provided enough space for fryers! Not to mention the grill on the back porch. The swimming pool is a great addition and just enough space to jump in and cool off. The view from the back porch is great! We used the pier to fish some and to tie up the jet ski too each afternoon. The inside of the house is very spacious! It is so nice to have your own restroom per couple. The Washer and Dryer works really good also. We loved the idea of 2 refrigerators, it helped to make less trips to the store. We had enough seating for everyone to sit around and relax when we were not on the beach. We will be back next year. Even tho we had to change our normal week. It is worth it. The only issues that need attention are, the right refrigerator was leaking on the inside, the right front shower will not drain good. In all fairness to the owner, I have been so busy back at work, that I haven't been able to tell her. We can not wait to go back next year and hope to continue this as our vacation destination for many more years. The walk to the beach is very short also.

Just What We Needed

We had a perfect stay! Ms. Sonja was wonderful and so was this house! In the past we have stayed in high rise condos and the kids always had to have someone with them. Here, the kids were free to roam about and play unassisted by us except to walk over to the beach. It was chilly but they braved the cold and swam anyway, in the pool, lagoon and gulf all three! The home had plenty of towels, blankets and a well equipped kitchen which was wonderful because we cook nearly every meal. We had inquired about having fires because our littles love making s'mores. Sonya was kind enough to inquire with the city for us but discovered we could not have an open fire without a permit. Then upon our arrival she messaged that she had purchased a gas fire place. A wonderful surprise that made our kid crew crazy happy! We noted that in others reviews they complained about the distance to the beach. You can see the water in the distance from the porch of the house. If you have a window open you can hear it plain as day. The walk is literally a block to a spot where you can access the beach. Our ages ranged from 3-60 and had no issues. There are two nice grills, one gas and one charcoal to suit your preference and even a tandem kayak. The two fridges meant plenty of space and no making extra trips to the store as fridge space became available and everyone was tickled with the bonus of an ice maker. The beds were comfy and we never ran out of hot water even with a full house at max capacity for the listing. For those who have said that it's outdated or listed petty small things I just want to say this.......We are a large family on a tight budget. Kids in privates schools because public schools in our area struggle, two littles with a rare genetic defect that requires expensive care/medications and that anywhere we travel there has to be a medical facility equipped with an endocrinology team that can handle their condition, kids in sports that keep rising in fees, and just the ever rising cost of life in this country. Finding a truly great place to stay that is affordable and can accommodate all of us is hard to come by. This is a beach house in its truest form. It is not modern with all the latest updates. If it were it certainly wouldn't feel like home or a beach house to us quite honestly. It is family friendly and within easy access of anything you could need or want and we loved it. We highly recommend this property. Thank You again Ms. Sonya!

Nice layout & location + a few recommendations for future guests

We visited for 5 days in March 2023 with 6 adults and 2 kids. Everyone had a great stay. The host was very responsive. The king beds were great & there were enough beds for everyone. The towels were plush, the TVs were great, there were plenty of dishes & utensils to meet our needs. The deck & pool were great to hang out, and the kayak accessibility was nice. There’s convenient beach access a short walk across the street. There were sand toys for the kids and enough tables inside to accommodate meals, games, & more. The layout worked great for us - half the rooms at each end with the common area in the middle. There's some things we would have liked to have known before or could have been better prepped for our arrival: 1. On arrival, the house was warm. We got the A/C going & it was fine. 2. We found that the toilets didn't flush - the water had been turned off to each one. We turned the water on & all was good. Not something we felt that we should have had to do. 3. We checked for more toilet paper (then contacted our host) and found out that ONLY ONE STARTER ROLL OF TOILET PAPER PER BATHROOM IS PROVIDED. For 8 people & 5 days, would’ve been good to know ahead. Note to the next guests: bring your own TP. 4. We found the same in the kitchen, ONLY 1 STARTER ROLL OF PAPER TOWELS, and 1 STARTER TRASH BAG LINER, is provided. 5. THERE'S NOT SOAP AT EVERY SINK, so bring your own soap. (To be fair, we contacted our host and she provided more TP and paper towels for us, but explained that that was not the standard for this rental.) 6. As we familiarized ourselves with the house, we found numerous dead bugs around on the floor. Now, dead bugs are better than live ones, but it still made us feel that it hadn't been cleaned well. We checked the stand-alone ice maker and not only was the water turned off to it, but it was empty...except for a couple of dead bugs down inside. Again, we just didn't feel it had all been cleaned well. 7. The checkout instructions state, "Wash all dishes and put back where you found them. If we must rearrange due to items in wrong cabinets, there will be a $25 fee..." With 6 ADULTS & 2 CHILDREN using dishes, the likelihood of placing a dish in the wrong place was high. This felt like a very high expectation. To be honest, we liked the rental, but felt that for the price, the little "extras" should have been provided and more attention given to the overall cleanliness and first impression given to us, the guests.
