    Wonderful cottage with everything you need from a stay. Quick and easy walk to the beach even with kids in tow! Will definitely book again for the next stay.

    We were very pleased with the cottage. Conveniently located, we were only a short walk to the beach, and the lagoon. Everything was clean and well maintained. The owner of the property was very quick to respond to my messages. Overall a great experience, we will definitely keep this place in mind for future vacations.

    Close to all the action but far enough away to be very relaxing. Loved every minute of our stay

    Great Thanksgiving stay. Easy beach access and the house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Any questions we had were quickly answered.

    We were under the impression it was 4 bedrooms bc the layout of where you sleep shows 1 king room, 1 queen, 1 queen, and 1 bunk room. It literally says bedroom 4. We made it work but need to be more specific that the 4th bedroom is the living room and its a couch bed not a bed. If it was a couple planning to stay in there i dont think they would be happy to be sleeping in the living room.

    We all agreed that this home was perfect for us. We traveled with 3 younger children and the location, pool and the home itself exceeded our expectations. The home was clean and very comfortable, with a very helpful host! We would definitely stay here again!

    We love this area, it's on the main drag but also a quiet area. Not far from entertainment & restaurants. Easy walking to the beach & the walking path is right behind the facility. We would definitely recommend West side cottages.

    We really enjoyed our trip. Cottage was well located. Easy access to beach and boardwalks for fishing. We were able to ride our bikes safely to the center of Gulf Shores. Only downside was no beach supplies for our use. Could use a new grill, toaster wasn’t working properly and missing some light bulbs. Advised David of these issues but we’re not resolved during our stay.

    Overall great place to stay. Would come back again. Very clean. No bugs. Easy check in and out process. No place is perfect but this is as good as it gets for a home away from home.
