Perfect location and great house!

I stayed for Labor Day weekend with a group of couple friends. We had a great time and the location of this house could not have been better. It’s a short walk to the beach and having the groceries/liquor store and restaurant next-door was so convenient. We stayed at another property last year and all raved about this property all weekend. The owner was kind and accommodating and very easy to contact for both check in and a prior question. We would recommend to friends or families staying in the area!

Beds were comfortable but there were chips inside the couch causing one of the guests having to find another place to sleep at.

Perfect spot for a lovely vacation.

This house is at a perfect spot so close to the beach (2 mins walk) and just 2 mins drive to downtown where you have all good restaurants and all other stuff. There’s a grocery store right across the street. House can easily fit 6 adults. Cliff and Kristen were great and friendly hosts. I had no issues in my stay lovely place, I really loved the city of gulf shores visiting again for sure. Cheers, Ash
