🏖️ FRESH REMODEL! Come & Enjoy🌊 🎣 The fish are biting🎣
The Rookery is a serene, low-density community located adjacent to the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. It's a popular choice among families due to its excellent amenities, including two pools, a covered gazebo, hot tub, tennis courts, a community grilling area with picnic tables, and close proximity to world-class golf courses. The beach is just a short walk or drive from the beach house. It's a rare find that combines affordability, spaciousness, and great amenities. You can enjoy the tranquility of the area while still being close enough to the attractions and restaurants of Gulf Shores.
The cottage is fully furnished and equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The master bedroom features a queen bed, the second bedroom has a king-size bed, and the third bedroom offers a full-size bed. Additionally, there's a full-size sofa in the living area that can be used for additional sleeping space if needed. The kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, dishwasher, and ice maker. The unit also includes a washer and dryer for your convenience. Three streaming smart TVs are available in the unit, along with new fiber internet, perfect for your entertainment.
The Rookery was designed as a quiet resort adjacent to the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. You can play games outside with the kids, go birdwatching, or walk the trail to Mobile Bay. Explore one of the Bon Secour marked trails with your family nearby. Historic Fort Morgan is only six miles away, or take the ferry to Dauphin Island and visit Fort Gaines or the Sea Estuary. Two championship golf courses are within a couple of miles, without the traffic or crowds. A short drive into Gulf Shores allows you to visit Waterville, the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, or The Track, offering amusement park rides and arcade games. Numerous restaurants also await you. Drive up to Foley and visit the Tanger Outlet, a large outlet mall. A marina, boat dock, and local restaurants are nearby. Tennis rackets and beach supplies are provided for your convenience.
For reservations during the Winter Season (January and February) made before October 1st, a minimum stay of 60 days (two months) is required. Reservations that don't meet this criterion are subject to cancellation by management. After October 1st, reservations for the winter months may be made for a minimum of three or seven nights, depending on unit specifications. The Rookery is professionally managed by Poole & Associates.
Additional information: Parking passes are required and can be purchased upon arrival or by contacting the management office directly, with a maximum of two parking passes allowed per reservation, accommodating up to two cars. Linens are provided; however, guests are encouraged to bring their own beach towels. The reservation includes a "starter set" of hand soap, one roll of toilet tissue per bathroom, one trash bag per trash can, and one roll of paper towels.
Guests must be at least 25 years of age or older to rent this property, and photo ID is required at check-in. Smoking is not permitted, and pets are not allowed.
Explore the possibility of monthly "Snowbird" rates available from November through February, designed to make your extended stay even more enticing. The Rookery offers a peaceful retreat where comfort and lasting memories await.
