Bayfront Oasis
Great stay at Bayfront Oasis. Close to beaches, shops, and great restaurants. Loved the dock that overlooked the beautiful bay. Had lots of trouble with the keypad to get in the house almost everyday. The house could use updated pots and pans as they are too old to use. Otherwise great stay and would visit again.

Peaceful Retreat
This house was just what we were looking for: quiet and on the water with lots of birds and boats to watch. Fishing wasn’t great, but it was pretty cold. Dolphins visited right up to the pier occasionally. We loved the house and its location.

We really enjoyed our stay at the dock by the bay house. We had plenty of room for all of us. The dock was where we gathered every night for some night fishing and relaxing. A bonus was watching the dolphins every morning and evening. Thank you!!!

Lovely Stay on the Bay
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this home on the bay, and it suited our needs perfectly as a family of 5 adults plus 2 grandparents. It is a lovely home set back off the road in a quiet area and on the water. There were beds for all 7 adults, and the fact that it had 2 1/2 baths was very nice. We made a couple of meals in the well-equipped kitchen (Keurig and drip coffee maker, pots and pans, muffin tin, measuring cups/spoons, colanders, etc.) and stored lots of food in the refrigerator. Our guys enjoyed fishing from the long pier with non-slip decking (the only change I would make would be some sort of covering over at least part of the pier's deck.) They caught fish almost every day, we watched the beautiful sunsets each evening, and even saw a few dolphins swim by. The back screened porch with a lovely swing allowed those who wanted to be inside/outside to have a nice spot with such a great view. Part of our group even ate one of our meals on the porch at the high table and chairs. There were gracious plenty towels which was really nice. And best of all, there was plenty of comfy seating for all 7 of us to gather in the den each evening where we played games. The only real issue we had the entire time was that the internet at times was very spotty. I am sure that is more an internet provider issue than an owner issue. We just used cell data when it went out. Thanks so much for a very enjoyable home away from home!!

Fun times by the bay
Really enjoyed this house. Loved the location. Lots of stuff to do in the bay, a short drive to the beach, and lots of great restaurants nearby. Kids were able to fish from the dock. Saw multiple dolphins. The dolphin tour boats pass by multiple times a day. House had everything we needed for our stay.

Orange Beach Stay
Just a couple of things. 1. There is mold around several of the light fixtures in the kitchen and in the living room. (Which done wonders for our allergies) 2. The screen on the back door kept coming off we fixed it the best that we could. 3. There was no blow dryer in the house. 4. Only one of the bathrooms had a single roll of toilet paper. 5. No trash can in master bathroom Other than that we had a wonder stay.

Perfect Getaway!
We were a little hesitant about the location but it was absolutely perfect! The house and neighborhood were so relaxing and quiet but everything was just a short drive (minutes) away - shopping, restaurants, groceries. We loved waking up and watching the fishing boats troll by and seeing dolphins as we had our coffee every morning! We would definitely stay here again!

Peace
The most wonderful thing about this property is the screened in porch. My family loves sitting out there and watching the bay. I personally had a lot of fun fishing off the dock didn’t catch much but some catfish in a few tiny little reds. My son took the kayak out across the bay and caught some nice sized reds. It did rain most days we were there so we only got in one beach day which was fabulous the water was warm the beaches were white. The home was very clean. I did find the kitchen very disorganized and spent the first few hours trying to get stuff so we would be able to Cook. I suggest that you bring a nice fry pan. The griddle works perfectly for making your pancakes, the electric wok was great for cooking up some scallops, and the electric fry pan definitely does not work. There are many plates and cups so you will not have to worry about having enough for your family. We brought our favorite spices in marinades. There are plenty of clean towels in the bathrooms. There is also a small supply of detergent, shampoo, conditioner, body was and dishwasher soap. We had a couple maintenance calls while we were there and Harris properties was rapid to respond. We could not figure out how to use the elevator to bring our things upstairs. There is a handicap bathroom but it does not have a shower stool. I’ve had multiple back surgeries and would’ve preferred to of had a shower stool available. My grandchildren had a wonderful time with the weather the Wi-Fi was wonderful for the kids. We also had a lot of fun playing Uno. It was a wonderful family vacation. We definitely are thinking about renting this vacation home again
