Photos and Description of the Gulf Shores vacation house rental
3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, sleeps 10, large beachfront porch

Daydream Hideaway...you'll want to make it your own! Charming Gulf front cottage in laid-back West Beach area of Gulf Shores. Just yards from Lagoon Pass with its good fishing, tidal pools, hermit crab hunting and more.

Spacious living room for everyone to relax. Great porch to watch the sun and surf. First floor king bedroom for one level living. You'll also find a queen bedroom on this floor and a full bath. Upstairs is a bedroom with two double beds and another full bath.

On the ground floor is a full laundry, outdoor shower, a picnic table, hammock, grill and some beach chairs and toys to use during your stay.

Less than 3 miles from Hwy 59 so you are close to restaurants, shops and attractions. We love this area for its uncrowded sugar-white beach and proximity to all the things you may want to do. Gulf Shores has great fishing, dolphin cruises, a range of family-friendly activities, even a major outlet mall. Visit historic Fort Morgan or the National Naval Air Museum

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

Gulf Shores is all about sun, sand and water!: Gorgeous sugar-white beaches and emerald waters surround us. Gorgeous beach for sun, sand and surf play. Lots of opportunities for boating and fishing. You can take a dolphin cruise, charter a boat for inshore or offshore fishing, rent kayaks or a pontoon boat for the lagoon and more. You can even fish and crab just steps from the house at nearby Lagoon Pass.

There are numerous marinas throughout the area as well as local companies that will deliver kayaks to house or a pontoon boat to the Little Lagoon public boat launch for you.

Family Friendly Activities: Enjoy a wide range of family friendly activities. You'll find the usual amusements at The Track, Pirate's Island Putt-Putt, Adventure Island and Waterville USA. We also have two historic forts (Forts Morgan and Gaines), the National Naval Air Museum (and home of The Blue Angels) in nearby Pensacola, USS Alabama Battleship Museum on Mobile Bay, and more.

The Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo has white tigers and was the subject of the Animal Planet television series The Little Zoo That Could.

Visit Lulu's owned by Lucy Buffett, sister of Jimmy Buffett, to enjoy live music, good food, a huge sand play area and watch the boats travel the Intercoastal Waterway. Closer to the beach you'll find The Hangout, a large open air restaurant with music and sand play overlooking the beach.

Golf: We have 9 signature courses within the immediate vicinity--more if you'd like to drive a few more minutes. Enjoy Kiva Dunes which is the top rated course in the state. Craft Farms and the Gulf State Park courses are both within 6 miles of the house.

Texan Vacation

Review Submitted: September 13, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
Had a wonderful time at the house. It is located right on the beach, doesn't take but a few seconds to walk from the deck to the ocean. The house was clean and ready when we arrived. The set up was perfect for our family, our 2 year old slept upstairs while mom and dad had a room as did grandma and grandpa. The view was amazing and the beach was beautiful. Sitting on the deck relaxing after the son went down was a pleasure as well. Good eating was just a drive down the road, plus Orange Beach is about 10 minutes away as they have wonderful restaurants as well. The only gripe I had was the beds upstairs, they were very loud and uncomfortable, in the end it didn't matter as no one slept on them. Either way I would totally recommend the Daydream Hideaway!

Owner's Response: We are so glad these guests had a good time and have already contacted us to make arrangements for next year. This is the first time any of our guests has ever mentioned any issue about the upstairs beds. We'll check it out!

Great Place for Family Getaway!!

Review Submitted: April 28, 2010 Date of Stay: April 2010
We just returned from a week at Daydream Hideaway!! This is a great beach house,..very clean,..it was the perfect place for our family of six. Best of all it was just steps away from the beach!! The upstairs bedroom was a great choice for 'Mimi' and 'Poppy' to sleep late in the mornings,..very quiet, even with our two grandsons running around downstairs early in the morning,..didn't hear any noise at all!! Also, it was not too far away from some good restaurants,..Lulu's and Nolan's were our favorite ones! We would pick this house again,..for sure, if we do return to Gulf Shores!
