Neighborhood:
This is the old neighborhood of Gulf Shores where front porches face the streets and everyone walks and bikes around. Itâs a quiet area away from the rush of HWY 59 and the beach road traffic. Thereâs an easy access road through the state park to get to the beaches that doesnât require you getting into the heavy traffic and condo areas of that part of town. Just ask me!
Thereâs a great park in the neighborhood and amenities within walking distance. Let me know any questions about whatâs close or check my guide book. Seven minute drive to the beach and less than that to the Gulf State Park.
Loads of bike trails in the state park and around town. You could spend a whole day exploring Gulf Shores by bike and stop at any number of places for a bite to eat or a beverage. There are plenty of bike rental places around town.
Public boat launch less than 5 minutes away and thereâs room for a boat to be parked in the driveway.
The home was conveniently located in Gulf Shores and we loved being within walking distance of the local coffee shop, The Foam, and the wine tasting company, Isla Wine. The bed was excellentâŠhad great night sleeps. If we had one recommendation it would be to add a large screen smart TVâŠthe distance from the couch to the TV was just too far and we had a challenging reading the screenâŠthe wall is definitely big enough. And yes we did not come to watch TV but on those rainy days it did get used. Overall loved our stay and the owners were very responsive. They even logged us out of our TV apps after we left because we forgot.
Such a cute place with so much personality around it, only thing we noticed that could've been improved was having cleaning supplies. By the time we started cleaning surfaces we realized we only had dish soap to clean anything we wanted to. But it was still an amazing location and we'd definitely go again if we could!
Our stay was everything we could wish for in a trip. The neighborhood was quiet & nearby park was a bonus. We were minutes away from a grocery store plus awesome restaurants for a quick bite. Unfortunately the weather took a turn for us during our stay. I messaged the owner for an extra night so we could finish off our bucketlist of things to do in area. Owner responded right away & fulfilled our request. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to be away from the crazy traffic of the main roads touristy areas but still be close to everything. Also, the word magnets on the refrigerator were a thought provoking activity each time you walked by the refrigerator. lol. Weâll definitely be back in the future.
Great property centrally located in Gulf Shores. Very close to the beach and easy to travel to all attractions in Gulf Shores. This house was perfect for our stay.
First time using Vrbo and we had a wonderful stay. Will was communicative and quick to answer any questions we had about the dogs we were bring. His instructions were clear and the place was a joy to stay at. We will definitely consider staying again when we return to the area.
This home was perfect for our needs! We had 3 adults, two toddlers and our German shorthair pointer. The home was fully stocked and we were able to make all our meals which was such a relief. Everything was clean and exactly as described. We will absolutely stay again!
Short weekend trip with friends. We had fun. The house is close enough to the beach but just far enough away that youâre not in the middle of the major traffic. Plenty of restaurants near by.
Will was super nice. He was very helpful with everything we needed. His home has a great layout for a small family. Itâs just a couple blocks from the park. Our family enjoyed riding our bikes to the park. Itâs a great neighborhood if you have pets. The streets arenât very busy and thereâs a dog park not too far away. Overall we had a great stay!
This was our second time to stay in this gem!! We wonât stay anywhere else!! It is VERY clean, everything is as itâs advertised, you wonât need for anything, no stairs, carport for the car, EXCELLENT cookware (lol, yes, we cook on vacation)⊠the owners are the friendliest and most accommodating people Iâve ever worked with. You wonât be disappointed!! Weâll be back in the spring, Will.. see you then!!
place is fine everything was great only negative is we payed pet and cleaning fees and he asked for extra money after our stay complaining of cleaning up dog hair from the photos i assumed the yard was fenced in and that we would be able to keep the dogs outside the whole time but it wasnât and we had to keep them inside which is why there was some dog hair. all in all a fine place just a small misunderstanding which was redoubled amicably.
We had a wonderful time on a quick weekend getaway. The house is so spacious and comfortable. It is also located close to everything we wanted to do, and it was the perfect place for our fur babies. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Place was great and nicely decorated. Host was very friendly and responsive to our needs. The location is wonderful with quick access to all the Gulf Shores amenities. Nice park, breakfast diner, and coffee shop within walking distance as well. Would definitely stay again!
We came down for a strongman competition and beach time. Rental was close to the beaches and the hangout where the event was held. Owner was easy to communicate with. The house was comfortable and spacious for our group.
