Your whole family, fur-baby included, will feel right at home in this spacious cottage.

This quaint cottage invites you and your fur-baby to travel together. Not far from Perdido Pass at Alabama Point (and, 1/2 mile from the Cotton Bayou boat ramp), boat owners will enjoy convenient access to a pier and boat slip. The pier is shared with one other cottage, Dunrobin of Cotton Bayou, and allows for 2 mid-size boats between 20' - 30' in length. Both cottages may be booked together when you need to accommodate more guests. Call us for details.

    This was the perfect spot for us to have our boat right outside the back door. The house is old Orange beach, nothing fancy, and just perfect.

    We decided this year we wanted a simple summer vacation. We wanted to bring our boat, fish, and play in the water. We did all of that plus some ! This is literally the perfect spot. We had so much fun and will definitely be back

    Very nice location and view. The property was very dated and the stove half worked. They did promptly replace the grill that was broke. Would love to stay again if they updated and got a decent sized tv in living area.

    Great location with a wonderful boat dock. Quant cottage with nice views and conveniently located next to Zekes Marina and restaurant. House needs a deep clean. Check in was 3. Cleaning staff came at 4; took pics and left. Would definitely stay again.

    Nice place to stay. Had to kill numerous roaches throughout the stay.

    We had to wait to check in which wasn’t a huge deal, just a slight inconvenience. Upon arrival there is a long driveway full of thick bushes. They advertise boat friendly place but I it was too narrow for our boat to go down without getting our boat scratched up. Once inside the back door knob was falling off. I notified the maintenance crew and they didn’t arrive until midnight therefore we couldn’t even go to bed until the doors were secure. The kitchen was full of roaches and the HVAC couldn’t keep the home cool. Will not return here.

    We loved the dock area especially! Our dogs had the best time playing out there as well. We enjoyed our stay and liked the location. I will say with the money that was spent renting that place, they could have done better than the cheap stuff that was provided. I mean one ply toilet paper, come on now.

    The house was clean and comfortable. The view was great. It even had a small beach area where the dogs could swim. I would stay again
