good but not quite great

good location but could use some TLC. We arrived to find some cleanliness issues (half eaten chips in the master bdrm side table, candy wrappers, pool dirty, kitchen trash filthy, 2nd bathroom with dirty linens and tub/shower not cleaned, outdoor trashcan covered in maggots, sliding door w/damage). The team was very responsive and did send people to take care of the issues very quickly. Overall the house had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well appointed but a little TLC and attention to details to touch up the few problem areas would go a long way to move the property from good to great. The pool needs the sides scrubbed (thick dirt ring around inside remained entire stay but did have the water level and chemicals adjusted) and the baby pool was filthy. The furniture in the garage area was adequate but updates would go a long way-- it's a great area but not set up to maximize use. An umbrella or two on the pool deck would be a huge improvement as well and the screens on the porch need to be repaired/replaced in several spots. We had a really good time, but as regular vacation home renters, we wanted to share our suggestions because the location is wonderful and the property has big potential to be really great.

Family Vacation at Summer Wishes

My husband and I spent a week at Summer Wishes, along with my in-laws and our 3 kids (ages 14, 6 and 3). While the house is not huge, it still housed all 7 of us comfortably. The two older kids loved the room with the twin beds! If you want to be in the middle of all of the restaurants and shopping in Gulf Shores, this location couldn't be better. The beach, shopping and plenty of food places are even within walking distance. The outdoor space is the best part of the house - the pool was wonderful, and all of the outdoor seating in the shade was really nice, especially for grandparents. It was also nice to have access to the storage area, where we found several pool floats and beach toys (we also left a few more for the next guests as well)! It is a great house for a family vacation.

Great size for family of four

We traveled with our two teen boys over Spring Break in mid-March; it was a great time, although the weather was chilly. Great property, and the pool was a bonus, but also very cold. The short-term rental next door was very active/noisy throughout the night, so it impacted our ability to sit outside, but that is no fault of this property. We knew this was a heavily traveled Spring Break destination, so we figured parties might be a problem. House is charming and just the right size for us!

Great stay, check-in nightmare

House was as described, very nice, and overall very clean. I rated cleanliness a 4, due to covered porch table was filthy. Bed and furniture were very comfortable. Definitely recommend staying here. Pool and outside are private and plenty of seating for large groups. Check-in was awful! I did not receive check-in instructions, and "Charlene", who was supposed to be my contact, NEVER replied! The only way we got in (after driving 15 hours) was going to the property and finding the phone number for managing company on a sign in the yard. I did get check-in instructions from there, but not without a few hours of worry. I contacted the VRBO company directly (not easy) and they tried contacting the owner directly, with no success. The VRBO agent said that I would have to wait until check-in time to get resolution, such as accommodations. Calling the number on the sign got us in, but I am surprised that VRBO never checked back with me to see if we got in. Overall, a great place to stay. I would recommend to the managing company to list their phone number as a point of contact! Also, VRBO's customer service was less than stellar.
