This was a clean, comfortable, charming cottage on the Bon Secour River just 3.5 hours from New Orleans. We loved it!All the necessary amenities and more. We grilled downstairs in the covered patio area and watched College Football on the TV mounted in the outdoor patio area.The Galley Restaurant is literally less than a 1-minute walk away. Will definitely be back.

Good Times

The place was awesome! Clean, everything you need was there. Perfect location as it's close to shops and beaches. Enjoyed the week we stayed. The under house furniture and TV were a big hit. We would recommend this place to our family and friends. Owner was very helpful answering my questions. Beautiful place to stay and relax! The pool was a bonus too!

We love Amber’s home. We came a few weeks ago over Labor Day weekend and came back again for a week. We loved the restaurant next door and ate there three times. All the kitchen needs are here and well stocked.Shampoo, conditioner and body wash available in the shower. The most comfortable beds.It felt like “home” the whole time. The community is small and quiet. Amber is a fantastic host and I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a peaceful get away.

We really enjoyed our stay. We prefer to stay away from the hustle and traffic of Gulf Shores, so staying on the Bon Secour River was just what we wanted. The property was very clean, comfortable, and quite enjoyable. Sitting on the deck was a very pleasant way to sip tea and enjoy each morning. Billy’s Seafood was a favorite stop as we do not get to enjoy fresh grouper and shrimp in Michigan. Amber was very helpful and most pleasant to work with if I had any questions. The kitchen was stocked with what we needed. One minor issue would be to provide more kitchen garbage bags. As I said minor, as we bought some, which of course, we will use at home.Thank you for the use of your apartment!

Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m thrilled you enjoyed the peaceful Bon Secour River—it’s such a special escape from the Gulf Shores bustle yet close enough to be at the beach or anywhere you’d like in just a few minutes! I’m glad the home felt clean, comfortable, and perfect for slow mornings on the deck. And you’re right, Billy’s Seafood is a local treasure. I appreciate your note about the kitchen bags and have added more to our longer stay stocking list. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’re always welcome back for another relaxing stay in Bon Secour!
