We really enjoyed our stay at Woodland River Retreat! The host was very communicative, welcoming, and friendly. There was a check in/check out book with great information and directions to the creek. It is a very beautiful property! The home was very clean and comfortable. 10/10 recommend!
We just spent the last month at the "Woodland Retreat" in Loxley Alabama. Cannot say enough good things about this beautifully remodeled country home or it's wonderful hosts! The house is a short walk from Fish River and is nestled amongst ancient majestic Live Oaks. Very few places we have rented over the last 30 years offer the beauty and the quiet serenity of this property. The hosts are ready to assist with any questions but, more importantly have the utmost respect for your privacy! Thank You Nina for the delicious Cranberry Bread!!
I was traveling with a family member who had limited mobility. We were so thankful for the carport! It provided a covered walkway to enter the home. There were small steps entering the laundry room and family room, then one larger step entering the kitchen. The owners have stocked the home with essentials, we had everything necessary to cook. The property was amazing. I could watch the trees all day.
We had a wonderful time. The house was absolutely amazing! It was so pretty inside & since it was raining during parts of our stay having the carport was a bi plus! The yard & wooded area made it seem secluded even though there were many houses in the neighborhood. The hosts were very quick to respond to any and all requests & communication. It was one of the best if not the best VRBO homes we have stayed in. Would highly recommend & would love to stay again in the future. Shopping and activities were fairly close with most being within 15 to 30 minutes away. My teens loved the walk to the river & the beach area.
