About the host
Hosted by Rick Goldsworthy
Instructional designer. Behavior change researcher. Father of 3. Teacher. Soccer coach. Hoosier. I'm interested in why people do the things they do, what we can do to change those things so that folks live happier and healthier lives, and how technology can help. Plus, well, I love Gulf Shores!
Why they chose this property
My wife's family have traveled to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Alabama for decades. I became a tag along in the late 1990s, so a Gulf Shores guy by marriage. One thing led to another and we ended up a several large, family-friendly, large group friendly, places along the Gulf. Shells is a big place with lots of extras and a great value! It is beachview, so not nearly as expensive as beachfront. But it is just on the North side of West Beach Blvd, and has private deeded access to the beach right across the street at our Wits End home. No hassling with finding your way to the beach!
What makes this property unique
BIG POOL. Large balconies for hanging out and watching the world go by. Multiple master bedrooms per side. Beachview price with dedicated beach access across the street.
