About this property

Perfect time to go fishing! Beaches are still warm too. Book now!

This cabin is located directly on the Bon Secour River, in Bon Secour near Foley. Alabama. It is a stilted cabin, which looks out over a bend in the river where birds and wildlife abound. You can fish from the cabin's own dock or bring your boat and explore the river, Bon Secour Bay, Mobile Bay, the intracoastal waterway, or even the Gulf of Mexico. It's also a great river for kayaking.

Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are just minutes away if you need to get away from the tranquility of the cabin. Beaches, golf courses, shopping, outlet malls, nightlife, you name it. Even the Casinos of Biloxi and Gulfport are less than two hours away.

You can even go over to Pensacola Florida and watch the Blue Angeles at the Naval Air Station, only 40 minutes away. At this Bon Secour cabin, you can do as much or as little as you like.

The cabin has a full kitchen, but if you hate to cook, The Galley Restaurant is literally steps away at the front gate. We have three smart TV's to log into your preferred service. Queen bed in the master, full size in the second bedroom. You can sit out on the porch overlooking the dock and river or go downstairs to enjoy the river from the porch swing, table and chairs plus a gas and charcoal grill. A boat ramp is located on site as well.

Amazing Stay!

This is the perfect place to stay that’s super close to the beach but gives you your privacy away from normal beach goers. The place was so clean and so inviting. Me and my husband fished off the dock every night and had a great time with all of the outdoor amenities provided. Will definitely stay here again!

Peaceful Retreat

We have come to love this location. It's a quiet little set up not too far from the beach with a peaceful setting perfect for our small family. The owner is really easy to communicate with and has always been very responsive. If you like relaxing with a cup of coffee, a water view and the sounds of nature. This is a quiet place to enjoy some peace while visiting the area.

Perfect getaway.

Perfect place for anyone that wants peace and quiet at night. Also, a short drive to town, for all the attractions Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have to offer. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything to make ourselves at home. Quick responses from the host, on check in and info about the area. Will definitely rent again when back in the area.

Perfect!

Michael was super easy to connect with! House was in a secluded area yet only minutes from outlets, grocery/ walmart, drug store, auto repair (that hopefully you will not need). We seen the dolphins in the early morning, seen much of the wildlife but thankfully no gators. It was the perfect home for a family! Pool was great 3-5 foot deep fenced in so you could still see the river happenings from the pool.

Very relaxing

Have just returned from the most relaxing vacation we have ever had. The cabin is nice and clean with great views of the river. We had so much fun sitting on the deck overlooking the river watching the fish, turtles, dolphins and all different kinds of birds. There are plenty of restaurants and great shopping (grocery, outlet stores and boutiques plus Walmart and Target) nearby and the beach is about 6 miles away. Mike, the owner, was such a gracious host. He is warm, friendly and very accomodating. We will be returning and will give it a hearty recommendation to family and friends. Thanks, Mike for such a great vacation place.

First and foremost, this has exceeded my expectations. The space was clean and quiet. The view was better than the pictures hinted, and the property is gated and felt very safe and secure. There is a grocery store nearby, but the store was out of many goods and the hot deli was not as advertised . Luckily there is also a dollar general which works well as a backup grocery store and its only minutes up the road. Overall I'd rate this stay a 5 out of 5! My only complaint would be that our schedule was so crammed that we didnt spend more time there. Will definitely book this property again in the future.

Wife and I absolutely LOVED this place!

It was a short family vacation to Orange Beach where the guys went deep sea fishing and the girls went shopping. The cabin was really nice and looked even better in person. It was a perfect fit for me, my wife, my sister, her husband and their kid. Plenty of things to do in Foley and the drive to Orange Beach wasn’t terrible at all! We’ve got to watch the wildlife on Bon Secour River. I was the only one to go kayaking and it was tons of fun. 10/10! Me and my wife do plan on coming back again sometime next year but make our trip a little bit longer lol

Perfect, Peaceful little houae

We were here for a volleyball tournament. The location was 15 mins away from tournament location and 20 minutes away from the beach. It was a great location for us! It was very peaceful. I enjoyed every morning having my coffee outside while enjoying the animals and scenery around me. My daughter loved being able to soak up the UV rays next to the water. The only thing is I wish we brought a fishing pole. There are plenty of stores around but we just had limited time. Great time and we will definitely come back.

We enjoyed staying at this house on the Bon Secour river. It was a quiet area, but we also had a short distance to go to enjoy the beaches and other towns. Communication was easy with the owner. We would return if had the chance.

Just What Our Family Needed

We loved taking the kayaks out onto the river and fishing from the cabin’s dock. Our family of five had just enough space to enjoy the weekend: My husband and I in the master bedroom, our teenager in the other, and our two younger kids on the pull-out sofa bed. Internet and Wi-Fi gave us no problems and it was very clean inside. Super cozy and exactly what our family needed.

About the host

Hosted by Michael McBrayer

Host profile image
My partners and I love to fish. We love boating and just being on the water.

Why they chose this property

This is one very pretty little river. We travel down to the gulf coast constantly. Most of our locations tend to be on the beach or bay so when we happended upon this great place on this terrific river we had to get it. It would be our fishing cabin and we would treat our guest as fellow fishing buds.

What makes this property unique

The beach is nice but the Bon Secour River is really what rest and relaxation is all about. Just having the boat steps away is worth it all. Within minutes you can be catching fish or just cruising the river. Even kayaking up river into the fresh water to catch a bass or get a look at a gator. And world class dining is only a couple of miles away over at Tin Top. And of course all that beach stuff is just down the road.
