Perfect for a duel family vacation!
Beautiful cottage near the beach! Perfect for two families with a total of 9 people. Floor plan was great and the cottage is well decorated. It had everything we needed from a well stocked kitchen, board games to play with the kids and beach gear! The owner was attentive and very nice to work with. Thank you so much!
We had our annual family/friend vacation at the cottage. There were 9 in our party and we had plenty of space. The walk to the beach is easy and short. The listing is as advertised. Great place for a larger family!
The property is great! Location is easy access to the beach and all things Gulf Shores.
We stayed for 4th of July, and we were able to have front row access to the fireworks show from the balcony! It was a super fun experience!! The layout of the property is perfect to manage 10 people without feeling overcrowded.
The property was all that we expected!
It is a great location! Hubby golfed and I was a short walk to the beach.
