Ken and Sherry were incredible hosts and the property and location were beyond stunning. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and plan to make this our go to destination when coming to visit family.
The house was clean, well decorated and the additional amenities took it over the top. The hosts were very nice and easy to deal with. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Mobile, AL.
We had a great weekend visiting Mobile and the location of this home was perfect for what we were looking to do. Downtown was in walking distance and the neighborhood bar/grill was just a block away. The house was clean and well equipped which is always nice! The host was easy to communicate with and certainly accommodating. We would definitely stay there again!
Beautiful home. Nicely furnished. Very clean. Loved it.
