About this property

Waterfront on Little Lagoon! Walk to the beach! Beach house with private pier!

Our beach house is perfectly located on Little Lagoon in Gulf Shores, AL- close to the beach and downtown activities, but tucked away off of the main beach road for quiet, relaxing times. You will love our private pier and covered boathouse - perfect for swimming, fishing, crabbing, sunbathing, and napping in the sea breeze. We love to watch the sunset over the lagoon from the boathouse swing. Enjoy meals overlooking the lagoon on the large screened porch - the picnic table seats 8-10 easily! This home has bamboo floors, and has been furnished and painted in a bright beachy style.





**Walk to the beach!! The public beach access is on 10th Street, an easy walk from our property.

**Private Pier and Boathouse

**Kayak and Stand Up Paddleboard rental and delivery available from nearby local businesses

The house was quite dated and a little run down from what the pictures showed on VRBO’s website. Other than that, it was a short walk to the beach, there was a great restaurant, coffee/ice cream shop and grocery store within a short walking distance as well.

What you see is what you get .it's beautiful and roomy

My wife and I were celebrating our 42 years of marriage with our children and we could not ask for a better place than the beach house .it is a beautiful house and it had everything you needed from cooking to having fun on the private pier. We brought a boat and a wave runner and was able to leave them in the water our whole stay plus there was enough room at the house to keep our trailers. We would like to thank ms Melanie for a wonderful week.

great house, great location, great management.

We even loved the rain. We sat out on the screened in porch and had coffee in the rain. our Great grand daughter could play on the porch and had a ball. The balcony on two of the bedrooms were a bonus. The neighborhood was very nice and my kids and grand kids loved the pier. they fished and fed the gulls. We named one of them Steven. House was close to everything. and plenty big enough.

Hidden Gem

This property was in the perfect location. We enjoyed the lagoon in the back and the Gulf across the street. The view from the dock is picturesque. Easy access to restaurants, shops, and public beach access. The owner was very responsive and attentive. The house was well equipped.

First time staying on Lagoon

We usually rent condos on the beach but decided to try the Lagoon side this time and we are so happy that we did! The house was exactly what we were looking for. It was nicely decorated with beachy decor, very spacious and the views of the lagoon were beautiful. So much to do from fishing, kayaking and swimming in the lagoon to relaxing on the screened in porch or the swing at the end of the pier. Short walk to the beach and convenient store and easy beach access. Plenty of parking dpace in the driveway which was good because we pulled a trailer with kayaks. Overall one of the best vacations we have had in Gulf Shores. Easy check in and check out and owner is very prompt when replying to messages. Would definitely rent this house again in the future!

Our new favorite spot

Amazing doesn’t even begin to describe the location of this house. Right on the lagoon where our big kids could swim (and touch!), a short 5 minute walk to the beach, and an even shorter walk to the best ice cream on the island! The house was immaculate, stocked with games, beach toys and floats, fishing equipment, and anything you need to enjoy your stay! We had 8 people and it was the perfect size! Owners were amazing to work with and we can’t wait to be back next year!

Perfect for Family Vacation

We didn’t want to leave this beautiful home. It was spacious, clean and private. We caught fish, crab and even a sting ray off the pier! And the beach was just a quick walk up the road which was really nice. Melanie was also a great host. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Melanie Kearney

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased and updated this beach house for our family of 5 to enjoy when we aren't renting it to other families. We have equipped the house with all the amenities we love in a beach house, and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Little Lagoon while vacationing here, and are thrilled to have the opportunity to build memories with our family in our little bit of paradise.

What makes this property unique

We love the boathouse and pier! The fishing is great, and the lagoon waters are perfect for swimming, crabbing, kayaking, boating, and skiing. When we're ready for waves and surf, the beach is an easy walk away.
