Our family loved this beach house. This is the fourth year to stay in a beach house. We love a condo on the beach but haven't found one large enough for our growing family. The beach was very private and not crowded at all. Thanks to our host for making it so enjoyable. L. Davis

Wonderful beach views; clean rooms; kitchen is fairly well equipped-not quite a gourmet kitchen, though; (however, kitchen could use a bit of organization so it would be easier to find things, plus we sure wished there was a pantry-or shelving in laundry room); lots of seating space in living room; love the game room downstairs; primary bedroom is spacious; upstairs kind beds were comfy; host was very responsive to questions; great place to spend a vacation with family and/or friends.

About the host

Hosted by Mark and Debbie Tisch

Host profile image

From the Mountains to the Coast—A Journey of Hospitality

Our story began in 2002 with three cozy cabins in the Smoky Mountains of Townsend, Tennessee. For years, we welcomed guests to the peace and beauty of the mountains. In 2019, we followed a new calling and moved to Gulf Shores—bringing our heart for hospitality to the coast.

Today, we’re proud to offer four upscale beach rentals, each personally maintained with love and care. Because we live nearby, we’re able to check every property before our guests arrive. And thanks to our exceptional housekeeping team, each home is spotless, stress-free, and ready for unforgettable memories.

When you rent directly from us, you’re not just booking a beach house—you’re gaining the personal touch of owners who truly care. With over 200 five-star reviews, we’re honored by the trust our guests place in us and grateful for the relationships we’ve built along the way.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Gulf Coast and helping you create a vacation filled with joy, peace, and lasting memories.

With heartfelt gratitude, Mark & Debbie Tisch

Why they chose this property

A Hidden Gem on the Gulf of America!

Karson’s Kastle is nestled in one of the most unique and peaceful settings on the Gulf of America. Located just half a mile from the nearest condo and with only one row of homes across the street, our guests enjoy rare privacy and tranquility on the beach—without sacrificing convenience.

You’re just minutes from the world-famous Hangout, plus countless restaurants, shops, and beach activities. The lots in this area are wider too, giving you more space between homes and a refreshing sense of openness—not the crowded feel you find elsewhere.

Come experience what makes this stretch of the coast so special. We’d love to welcome you to Karson’s Kastle, where privacy, comfort, and adventure come together in perfect harmony.

What makes this property unique

A Legacy of Hospitality, A Home Full of Blessings

Since 2020, we’ve been steadily upgrading the interior of our beach house—each January bringing new improvements. In 2023, we completed the exterior with fresh windows and siding, making it feel brand new. And tucked underneath the house, the game room adds a fun bonus for families and friends to enjoy. We’ve even been told there’s a shipwreck just offshore that offers excellent fishing—one more reason to love this special place!

The past 23 years have been an incredible blessing. What began with three cabins in the Smoky Mountains has grown into a thriving vacation rental business—all thanks to our amazing guests. We never imagined we’d one day own a beach house rental, and it’s only possible because of you.

We appreciate you all so much, and we hope Karson’s Kastle exceeds your expectations. Your trust and support have allowed us to grow, serve, and share this journey. We remain committed to creating vacations filled with joy, peace, and loving memories that last a lifetime.

With heartfelt gratitude, Mark & Debbie Tisch
