Our families favorite vacation place!
Review Submitted: January 2, 2009

This is our families favorite vacation place. You feel like you are living on your own private island. The lot is secluded and the walk to the beach is short and beautiful. From sitting on the back porch to taking it easy atop the crows nest the atmosphere is excellent and quiet. The house is nice and well maintained and feels like a home away from home. While we are there escaping from reality my kids skim board and swim, my wife sunbathes and I fish off the beach. If you are looking for a private and relaxing get away from the fast pace world and some good alone or family time this is it.

Owner's Response: Always glad to have you guys down, appreciate the kind words. Was also glad to hear that you were successful in catching speckled trout and redfish right off the beach in front of the house- I may leave the boat docked next time I go down!

After one bad on line rental experience,we were reluctant to try again,but after talking with the oweners,we were convinced to rent Driftwood Cottage.We are glad we did.The house is presented accurately on line.It is comfortably furnished in an eclectic style,without too much of a beach theme.For the times you want to cook in, the kitchen is fully furnished.The screened porch is a great place to just relax or read after spending time on the beach which is just a short walk away.The cottage is very private as there are no neighbors on either side.Does it sound as if we like this place? We do! Enough in fact to book it for our 40th anniveray.
Owner's Response: Thank you Dave and Anne, we enjoy having repeat guests who love the place as much as we do!

We had an absolutely wonderful time ringing in the New Year at Driftwood Cottage! The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It is also in a great location. We really enjoyed playing games in front of the fireplace and appreciated how close we were to the beach. We hope to come back to ride those bikes! It was a pleasure working with such an accomodating owner.

This was a wonderful, comfortable place to enjoy a low-key vacation. The short walk to the beach through the "secret garden" seems more like Tuscany than the AL Gulf. Each room had extra touches for comfort, and we especially loved the beautifully furnished porch. I would definitely return to this cottage!
Owner's Response: Thank you Ellen, we feel the same way about the dune path- really special!
great place to relax and kick back

This was my second time staying in the cottage, and it was great both times. The owners, Janet and Mike, make it so easy. Just drive up, unpack and unwind. It is exactly as advertised; close to but not on the beach, and everything you need is provided, including restaurant and local information. The cottage is perfect; clean and comfortable, with a well supplied kitchen. Janet and Mike were delightful, helpful, and friendly. I will definitely be back for a third visit sometime soon.

Beautiful home! We stayed over Thanksgiving weekend and had a spectacular time. House is well appointed and conveniently located to all area attractions. Beach is only short walk over dune. Highly recommend!

We visited in early November and had a great time! Weather, beaches, everything was beautiful. The house if perfect -- decorated like a "Southern Living" house, all the comforts of home, plus some. The top deck is a great place to eat shrimp & watch the sunset. We'll definitely be back!

We were thrilled to find such a unique and special weekend getaway for our last-minute trip! This house has everything you would need to feel at home and is perfect for a little R & R.
The beach was close enough to walk in the morning, and to hear the surf at night. The captain's watch on top provides spectacular views of sunrises and sunsets. We plan to make this a regular trip!
