It was very nice and quiet. We weren’t bothered any, but was welcomed to ask any questions if we had any. It was very clean and homey. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely keep in mind for future stays!
This was a perfect get away as long as you don’t mind a short drive to the beach. Definitely made a last minute trip worth it. Great communication with host. 10/10
I have had the most pleasant stay during my relaxation trip to this property. The owners warmly welcomed me and quickly showed me around and was sure to let me know that if I needed anything, to not hesitate to ask. But the cottage already had really everything that you need for your short term or long term stay. Easy access to shopping, restaurants and oh yea the beach is like 15 minutes down the road! There is not one thing negative that I could say about this treasure, no matter the type of stay you are looking for, you’ll be happy with this place 100%! Go and check it out😁
At peak season its nearly impossible to find lodging under 300 night in this area including hotels that block point usage. The house is a cute, clean and efficiency sized cabin in the property owners backyard. Communication with the owner through VRBO app was always quick. When we arrived, the door was unlocked and keys were on kitchenette counter, we never saw or met the owners of the main house facing the road. Located in the country on a dead end road but within decent driving distance and access to Gulf shore beaches, good restaurants in Foley, and OWA! We dined at Wolf Bay (good food and salad bar). If you're trying to save a few bucks during peak season, I highly recommend! The street has many mobile homes but thats typical of the country in this area. The area was peaceful and felt very safe. The accommodations were better than a hotel, the kitchenette had all the small appliances and gadgets one could need (airfryer, toaster, etc) but keep in mind, no stovetop range. Nice big ceramic coffee mugs to enjoy morning Joe and a good sized dorm room fridge that had plenty freezer fridge space way bigger than you'll get with a hotel. An extended stay here would be comfortable but we only stayed for one night. The couch is new is a dual recliner! The AC window unit kept the unit cool. The bed/bedding comfy and clean. Keep in mind you are in the country so bring insect repellent or stop at nearby Dollar General on way in. You'll need it. We enjoyed our stay!
The property was just as described and easy to find. Our host was readily available and very helpful. We very much enjoyed our stay with all the comforts of home.Thank you for your hospitality BrendaHope to stay again in the future Claudette

About the host
Hosted by 785.787.8079
We are originally from Colorado but got tired of the snow and came to lower Alabama and fell in love with this area. We love having so many beaches close by and going out to eat at one of the many great restaurants in the area.
Why they chose this property
We live in a neighborhood that is located in Elberta town limits but feels like we are out of town as everyone has an acre or more. We can hear a rooster crow in the morning or goats in afternoon, but still have all the amities of living so close to Foley, AL.
What makes this property unique
This is a small cottage that offers some privacy and a quite escape from the crowds of the cities. If you want laid back this is the space for you.
