The lazy turtle was just right
Short 3 min walk to the beach. The master bed was great. The spare rooms mattresses were not as comphy. No streaming on TV's unless you sign into your own accounts. Kitchen had all that you needed minus salt and pepper. Washer and dryer were fantastic. Plenty of seating. Sad the deck wasnt covered because it rained a bit every day. The property owner was super accommodating when i asked about a charcoal grill...she had one delivered the next day. 😊. Sad that there were no boogie boards or chairs or umbrellas for the beach left

Girls getaway
Perfect place for our get away. Easy walk to beach. Would have been nice if there had been beach chairs and umbrellas for renters to use. Interior could use a little upkeep and furniture needs to be replaced.

Sibling Reunion
Every year my brothers and I get together for a few days. This year we chose Gulfshores as the destination. The house was great for 3 couples. The beds were all comfortable and there was ample seating in the living room and dining room. The kitchen had plenty of plates, cups, pans and utensils. I expected there to be spices or foil or bags, because in all the other houses I’ve rented these are items that are left in the house by previous guests. I’m not sure if no other guests left things or someone took them. Either way, if you plan on cooking with more than salt and pepper bring your own spices.

About the host

Hosted by LORI A Barker

Host profile image
We purchased this property after spending a week as visitors. We fell in love with the relaxing atmosphere. We hope you love your stay as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We've vacationed in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach our entire lives. We knew we wanted to find a home away from home here but never found the right spot. We stayed at this property and never wanted to leave. We're thrilled to share it with seasonal renters.

What makes this property unique

We take special care of the property because we use it often as a family. We gave it a facelift in April 2022 for a fresh look for the summer season. Close enough to the action to enjoy all the amenities of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach but far enough away from the crowds to spread out and enjoy the beach.
