About this property

You will love the get-away from the hustle atmosphere of your life and a step into the reality of our secluded beach house. Let the tropical breezes of the ocean waves crashing on the beach lure you to another place in time. Our beach house is absolutely non-smoking and pet friendly. There is a deck outside the house where you can chill and listen to the beach's sounds. Our beach house is about 10 Miles west of the town Gulf Shores, and is the beach without the crowds. You can swim and enjoy the solitude of the beach and then come back to your home away from home at our "Original Beach House".

We are wanting a FULL refund. This is a nightmare. Our home in Kentucky was lost to a fire March of this year and we lost everything and needed/looked forward to a week of therapy etc My wife gets 1 week vacation a year and upon arrival after 11hr drive the house was not ready and the cleaning people just arrived . We had to leave and when we came back the house was NASTY. Hairs from dogs and human were all over bed covers/pillows and bed bugs (pics) in every bed except the bunkbeds.House was infested with mosquitoes biting ants and large roaches (pics/video). 2 large 11/2" roaches crawled across my wife while sitting in the living room chair. 2 large dead roaches by the headboard in bedroom and filth under the beds, black mold on blinds etc. We do not feel safe and cannot stay due to the conditions and wanted a FULL refund. The owner advised " there are no refunds givin and roaches and ants wont hurt anyone."This reservation and its condition has ruined our vacation and expectations of a relaxing week of therapy and the owner was rude his wife even called us and said "we were something else by complaining and expecting a refund". I could go on and on. I/we have pictures and video's of it all and they just said "it didn't matter and there will be no refund. We lost our money and paid another $2000.00 and stayed everynight in a motel in Foley. NEVER again.

Easy walk to the beach. Comfortable outdoor furnishings. Liked the gates on the deck; easy to allow the dog to hangout with me. Beautiful view of the beach. Bed was very comfortable. Very relaxing stay.

Great location

Perfect location, short walk to the beach. You are away from the hustle and bustle of everything. Could use some updating as the bunk beds are in pretty rough shape our kiddos had to sleep elsewhere. Could use some pest control as well. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Small rustic cottage

We had a great stay. The house is pet friendly which was great for us. We brought our two small dogs. It is obvious that it is a pet friendly house. There is only one bedroom with a door ..it isn’t the master. It worked fine for us. It is a bit of a walk to the beach, would recommend a wagon. We had a good stay. It did seem a little pricey, but we made memories and you can’t put a price on that!

Great house!

Walking distance to the beach for swimming or fishing. Hiking trails near by too. The house had everything you may have forgotten at home! Plenty of linens, a washer and dryer, the kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, cups, plates, and silverware. It's a good 20+ minute drive to get to Gulf Shores, so buy your groceries on your way in! There is an amazing local coffee shop next to the Exxon station and Dollar General on the way in, you WON'T be disappointed when you stop there!!!
