    The house was great and had a nice open floor plan, we arrived early and the property manager was able to get us checked in a few hours earlier. Very good at communicating and available for questions. My kids loved the big bath tub! My only request would be to have a mop available to help keep up with the wet kids running in and out. Over all we loved it and had an amazing time!

The house was clean, comfortable, and the perfect size for my husband, our dog, and me. We loved being so close to the beach and enjoyed the beautiful ocean view. The property management team was friendly, responsive, and easy to work with throughout our stay. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend both the property and the management team.

    Home was clean except we didn’t have a big outside garbage can because they we full until our last day than we could take trash out. Maintenance never showed up to fix swing that was broke my daughter in law sat on it the 1st day. Chains were rusted out. It seems like the neighborhood would clean up the weeds around the homes. Idk if thats a normal thing in the area,The outside furniture could use some new cushions the ones there are very flat. Over all We had a great time while we were there.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is close enough to the beach that the ocean can be seen from the front porch. It’s a 5 minute walk from the house to the water with part of the walk through sand and partly on the street. We were notified that the house was ready for us about an hour before scheduled check in but we were stuck in Mobile traffic. The house is cute and all 7 of us had a place to sleep. Beds were comfortable but we asked to have the sheets changed in all 4 bunkers bc there was sand at the bottom of all of them before the kids ever even got in bed. We also told management that the kitchen floor was sticky in places upon arrival. All of that was taken care of quickly and the manager stopped by to make sure everything was now ok. The entire floor area of the house needs a good scrubbing because we had to wash the bottoms of our feet every night. There is no Keurig, only a drip coffee maker with no filters(we left an entire package for future guests). The area below the house is spacious and has plenty of seating to enjoy being outside but not in the sun. Several beach chairs and toys are also available.The house is actually listed for sale. If you need shrimp, there’s a seafood store 9 miles east of the house on Hwy180, but for all other groceries, go to Dollar General or else go back to Gulf Shores because the prices at the closest little markets are outrageous. All in all, the grandparents, children, and grandchildren had a wonderful time.

    Easy to find. Short walk to beach. Beach not to crowded. Good local food. Plenty of room for our family of 8. Only problem was that we have 3 teens that are 5'10- 6'2 and the bunk beds were a little short for them. We had such a great time though. Will be back.

We had everything we needed for our week long stay and the walk to the beach is only a few minutes away! The view looking off the deck is beautiful. I don’t think we could have picked any more of a perfect place to call our family vacation spot!
