Further details for this vacation house rental in Gulf Shores, Alabama

Local Attractions: We have a waterpark, zoo (featured in the Animal Planet series The Little Zoo That Could), several amusement parks, good golf courses, in-shore and off-shore fishing, and more. Nearby are two historic civil war forts, The National Naval Air Museum, Battleship Park (where you can tour a WWII battleship) several wildlife preserve areas and more. There is a major outlet mall about 10 miles north in Foley. The Wharf, a new development near us on the Intercoastal Waterway offers an array of restaurants, shops, a large Ferris wheel, movie theater, concert amphitheater and marina. They frequently have something going on including holiday celebrations, boat shows, etc and it is also just a nice place to walk around. Gulf Shores is very family friendly and laid-back.

Fishing/Boating: We have a pier in case you want to bring a small boat or jetskis! We also have good fishing and crabbing from our pier. The lagoon has speckled trout, croakers, flounder and more. There is a local company that will deliver a nice pontoon boat for the day, and another will bring kayaks for a day or a week. For deep sea or in-shore fishing, there are a number of local marinas where you can charter a boat, rent a boat, or take a sightseeing or dolphin cruise.

Extended family vacation for 16

chattycathy Ooltewah, Tennessee
Review Submitted: July 8, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We vacationed at this site renting both units for a week for our extended family on my husband's side of the family. There were 16 of us staying in the 2 units total. We enjoyed the beauty of the spot and the accomodations were okay with a couple of exceptions. The downstairs bedrooms have to be entered outside of the main houses and they have separate a/c units which do not cool the daybed rooms and bath adequately. We really counted on the use of these 2 beds and it caused us an inconvenience in bedding 16. The rooms were just too hot to sleep in and the bathrooms were miserable. If your group does not require the use of these rooms, then the accomodations are adequate. We have stayed in houses before where we were much closer to the beach. This site requires that you drive and find parking to go to the beach, which was a hassle. The pool is very small but enjoyable for a couple of folks at a time. We really enjoyed all of the outdoor tables and covered area below the decks near the pool. We were there during extremely hot weather so the issues with the downstairs units would be not be so severe in cooler weather. All in all we had a good time and might consider using this spot agin in the future if the downstairs a/c situation in remedied.
Owner's Response: Our guests in this unusually hot weather let us know that we needed more a/c coverage so we have a it!

This is a lagoon-front house, with wonderful waterfront views, fishing, a pier and a pool. It is a half mile from the main public beach area with all of the benefits of off-the-beach pricing. We also have several houses that are closer to the beach and priced relative to their proximity so you can pick the one that meets your needs and budget!

Jen, Ronnie & family stay June 2009

Jenni H Tulsa, Ok
Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We were very happy with this home. There were a group of 13 of us (couples and kids) so we rented both sides. I would say the main reason we choose this house was for the pool (we knew we'd have down time away from beach) so it was GREAT entertainment for the kids. We'd wish the beach was closer, but with all the stuff we had to bring with us we'd driven anyways. It was very nice still seeing the lagoon side with the fishing deck, the men took full advantage of it.

The house was very clean and nice, it had all the necessary items in bathrooms, laundry and kitchen so all we needed was to buy food. The only advice i'd give to owner is the bottom level a/c unit is NOT big enough for the entire downstairs...only big enough for the bedroom it was in. It was very uncomfortable taking shower and getting ready while sweating from being so hot. If i had known before I would have packed a couple of fans.

Overall, we were happy and would forsure recommend this house to family and friends!!
Owner's Response: We love it when families enjoy our house, and when they take time to let us know what can be better! The bottom level is new this year, and now that we know, the AC will be upgraded before these guests come back next summer. Thanks!

GREAT Family Vacation

Opa John Hudsonville MI
Review Submitted: April 18, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Overall, this was the best family place for a vacation we could ever have hoped for. Having both sides of the duplex allowed us 6 bedrooms, and with 13 people found ourselves with plenty of space as well as meeting room.
The 'left' side has a nicer living/dining area, and we ate dinner together every night. What a treat to laugh and love with those you hold so dear. Breakfast always ended up being made in the 'right' unit, and although there is a shortage of quality cooking gear on both sides, we made do and even purchased som extra utensils that we left.
One more thing we felt could have been better was the grilling equipment. While we figured on purchasing coals and lighter fluid, there was no cleaning brush and the grills were aging and rickety. While on the subject of shortcomings, there was only one working VCR and coffee pot and many light bulbs were burned out. We changed some bulbs and worked around the other issues.
The location protected us from the high winds that were so prevelant at the beach that week, and we could not have had that any nicer. The pool did not get as much use as we hoped, but the kids loved the ledge on which they could play. The dock found us fishing every day, sometimes with success but always with great memories and the opportunity to build relationships. We put everything we caught back, including the one armed crab.The kids loved every minute there too.
We walked numerous places, and the ice cream shop, the zoo and the beach are all within range (at most one mile).

The vacations was as good as we could have hoped for, and a lot of that success was because of the wonderful place we stayed.

Review Submitted: June 29, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
We stayed in early June 2008. The house was perfect for us. The pool was nice to have for the kids, and the fishing pier was wonderful. The house was very clean and everything we expected (and more) based on the advertisement. Highly recommended and we will return. The location is also great...very close to beach,fresh seafood market, restaurants, water park, and Walmart.
