Amazing River House! Perfect for the whole family ~ BOOK TODAY
Nestled serenely along the banks of a tranquil, slow-moving creek, this charming 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage is a hidden gem of relaxation and natural beauty. Located away from the hustle and bustle of city life, this retreat offers a picturesque escape into the heart of nature.
Step inside, and you'll discover a cozy, open concept living area that allows for easy flow between the kitchen and the spacious living room. Large windows flood the space with natural light and offer breathtaking views of the creek just beyond the back of the cottage.
The four bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to provide comfort and tranquility for all guests. Each room is tastefully decorated and features plush bedding, ample storage, and large windows to let in the soothing sounds of nature.
One of the standout features of this cottage is the screened-in porch. This spacious and inviting area is the perfect place to unwind, read a book, or simply savor a cup of coffee as you listen to the gentle rustling of the leaves and the melodious babbling of the creek. It's an ideal spot for family meals, evening gatherings, or simply taking in the beauty of the natural surroundings.
Close to the creek, you'll find a charming gazebo nestled among the trees. This tranquil spot is perfect for taking in the serene views of the water, enjoying a picnic, or simply relaxing in the shade. It's an inviting retreat within the retreat, where you can immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the natural surroundings.
For beach lovers, white sand beaches and turquoise waters are just 6.6 miles away, offering the perfect opportunity to soak up the sun and play in the waves. Water and fishing enthusiasts can launch the provided kayaks from the private dock in the backyard, exploring the winding creek at their leisure.
Adventure seekers will find excitement just 6.8 miles away at the OWA Amusement Park, while sports enthusiasts can indulge their passion at the Gulf Shores Sportsplex, just 3.5 miles away. Additionally, the Foley Sports Tourism Fields are a mere 6 miles away, making it convenient for sports lovers to engage in their favorite activities.
This 4-bedroom, 2-bath cottage is not only a haven for those seeking solace in nature's embrace but also an ideal base for a wide range of interests and activities. Whether you're looking to relax on the beach, explore the waterways, enjoy thrilling adventures, or engage in sports, this charming cottage offers an idyllic setting that will leave you rejuvenated and inspired.
