8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The house inside was immaculate and was very cozy for our family of 4 including our small dog. The kitchen was nicely stocked with the exception of a large mixing bowl. The bedrooms were on the smaller side, but the beds were super comfy. There were several soft or weak areas in the hallway flooring. The property manager was contacted with an immediate response. Throughout the stay though, the flooring in front of the cold air return vent began to crack.The property is located on the bay with a short walk to the ocean. During low tide, the water is very shallow in front of the house but was deep enough to launch our kayaks. The neighborhood was very peaceful and clean. The area under the house had a nice setup with crabbing equipment, paddle boards, kayaks, cleaning table, shower, etc; however, the ceiling is very low. If you are taller than 5’8, you have to duck in order to walk under the house. Needless to say, our mid-sized suv would not fit under the house. There was some trash lying around the edges of the concrete pad underneath the house. There was only one outside door to the home which was concerning to me in case of an emergency. Overall, it was an enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a great time during our stay! Very easy to find, close enough to all of gulf shore’s amenities but far enough away to provide peace and quiet. House was very clean and it faces west so beautiful sunsets every night. Beach is an easy walk and was never too busy. Wildlife was great as well, saw dolphins multiple times!
6 / 10Average·Apr 2026
Starting with the positives, it’s nicely situated on a small inlet that is about 3 feet deep and filled with oyster cribs. It’s pretty quiet with a lot of birds. The deck is nice to sit on and relax.The rooms and beds are nice, as are the bathrooms. The living space (LR and DR) is comfortable. It has a few amenities—the kayaks and cornhole boards—that are a plus. It’s a 10-minute drive to the ferry and Fort Morgan, a 20-minute drive to town, and a 15-minute walk to the ocean. The downsides are that the photos are misleading. There are 2 homes built next door that block the view of the bay, which the VRBO ad doesn’t show. I told the manager about it, and they said the property has been booked so they haven’t had a chance to update the ad, which is bs. The homes clearly have been there for at least a year. Also, one of the photos is aerial, so access wouldn’t be needed.Second, the house has zero amenities in the kitchen. No condiments (not even salt and pepper), no foil, no dishwashing soap or cleaning products, no BBQ tools. Just 2 dishwasher pods and 1 packet of laundry detergent. I assume the cleaning folks take whatever you leave behind. There is no icemaker. I’ve never stayed in a VRBO or rental property that was so sparsely supplied. Never staying at 1 of their properties again.Also, BBQ’s grill is in sad shape, the “lawn” between the house and the water is filled with prickly weeds that you can’t walk on in bare feet. The DR table is falling apart.
