The entire experience was excellent. We would love to come back to Bon Secour soon, and when we do we hope we can stay in HyTide Cottage again. I can’t think of anything that needs changing or improving.Thank you.

We enjoyed our stay very much! The home was well stocked and the hosts were some of the kindest people, always responsive! We took our boat and kept it at the dock across the street. The hosts allowed us to use their crab pots and we had a delicious feast of sheepshead, shrimp and crab!The setting is beautiful. The views from the dock are stunning, it looks like a little fishing village.We would stay here again in the future.

Beautifully decorated, spacious yet snug-feeling cottage in a quiet, serene setting. Despite the solitude, you are less than 15 minutes from virtually every amenity you could need: shopping, dining, auto fuel and services, etc. This was our second stay and definitely won’t be the last. Thank you, Chris and Donna!

What a great fishing community! We stayed in one of 8 houses right across from the private pier with plenty of places to fish and crab. This was a first for us, as we usually stay right in Gulf Shores, but we wanted a little more quiet and peaceful setting. The house had everything that we needed. The master bedroom was huge and the bed super comfortable (and we are picky about our mattresses). The provided beach towels and beach bag came in handy. There was lots of storage space. This house was at the end of the row and had a picnic table and fire-pit that we enjoyed.Our favorite part was casting the crab pots (traps) from the pier into the river, and in 2 days we had enough blue crabs to have a feast. We just added spices (Old Bay) & vinegar and steamed them in the 3 provided crab pots. They were delicious! The Tin Top Restaurant was close and fantastic. The people at Aquila's bait shop, just down the road, were so nice and helpful. We highly recommend this as a low-key, quiet stay on the river.

Incredibly peaceful vacation. My husband and I loved the quaintness and serene cottage and its location !! Sunrise and sunsets from the dock were a daily ritual. The cottage was so well supplied with everything you need when away from home. The hosts were readily available and super kind. Looking forward to going back next year. Oh... fishing was GREAT too !!

Bon Secour Getaway

We loved our stay at Hytide Cabin between 6/22/24 and 6/28/24. Donna and Chris were great hosts and made sure our stay was comfortable. Their cabin was clean and had a ton of extra amenities. The set up worked great for our family. We traveled to the beach almost daily (only about 20 minutes with traffic), and it was nice to be close enough to food and activities, but in a quiet, secluded area. We also loved being close to fresh seafood and the dock was well kept with covered swings (both a short walk from the house). The locals were friendly, and the neighbors made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our vacation. We would definitely recommend Hytide for others. Thanks!

Quaint and Quiet

The owners are very friendly and involved through getting you prepared to visit! The house has amenities such as spices, tupper ware, ziplocks, etc that you never see at a rental. We were perfectly located to everything in foley and GS and two seafood markets in walking distance were a big plus. You must also eat a Tin Top i cannot tell you have wonderful, you must try it for yourself!

Absolutely Wonderful

This place is everything as it is described and more . If you are looking for a place of relaxation and a home like feeling this is it . Not to far from town and shopping . The two seafood markets next door are both amazing with lots of choices to pick from of the freshest seafood . Tin Top restaurant a mile up the road is absolutely fabulous as well and try their sautéed crab claws . We loved being able to walk out across the road and drop a crab trap and catch the largest blue crabs we have ever caught from the gulf and have them for dinner . We also enjoyed teaching my son how to fish from the large and long pier . We saw dolphins each day playing around and some got pretty close to where you could really see them . The owners are amazing to work with and communicate with you and answer any questions you may have . The kitchen is fully stocked to prepare meals from bake wear to a cast iron skillet . The neighbors who live in this little community are so kind and helpful as well . We enjoyed meeting them. The fire pit located out the back door is an amazing little spot to kick back relax and enjoy a nice cup of coffee or hot chocolate on a cold evening. We definitely plan to come again and enjoy the little piece of paradise . Thanks for a wonderful stay !

Leisure Time

The property is exactly as listed! Everything is extremely nice and up to date. Anyone that stays here should have everything they need for a comfortable visit. I’m sure if you were to need something extra that the hosts would try to accommodate you. The pier is set up for fishing and a cleaning station for your catch. If you are not into fishing it is also a great place to watch the boats come in and go out. It has plenty of seating and a swing all under cover. If you stay once you will want to go back.

Comfy Cottage Getaway

The listing pictures are very accurate. The cottage exceeded my expectations! It was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and so very comfortable! Although the location is simple living, the appliances, countertops and furniture are more high end. The host couple is easy to reach and eager to please. Everything one would need is in the cottage. The hostess has done a fantastic job of anticipating every need. The recliners and the bed are very comfortable. It's a great sight-seeing base or a low-key, comfy place to hang out. I highly recommend the HyTide Cottage!
