Perfect!
Michael was super easy to connect with! House was in a secluded area yet only minutes from outlets, grocery/ walmart, drug store, auto repair (that hopefully you will not need). We seen the dolphins in the early morning, seen much of the wildlife but thankfully no gators. It was the perfect home for a family! Pool was great 3-5 foot deep fenced in so you could still see the river happenings from the pool.

Peaceful Retreat
We have come to love this location. It's a quiet little set up not too far from the beach with a peaceful setting perfect for our small family. The owner is really easy to communicate with and has always been very responsive. If you like relaxing with a cup of coffee, a water view and the sounds of nature. This is a quiet place to enjoy some peace while visiting the area.

This was by far one of our favorite vacations and a big reason why was because of our stay with Mr.Mike! The cabin was exactly what we were looking for! It was exactly like the listing, super clean, a gorgeous view and Mike was more than accommodating with any help we needed. We will 10000% be back!!!

Just What Our Family Needed
We loved taking the kayaks out onto the river and fishing from the cabin’s dock. Our family of five had just enough space to enjoy the weekend: My husband and I in the master bedroom, our teenager in the other, and our two younger kids on the pull-out sofa bed. Internet and Wi-Fi gave us no problems and it was very clean inside. Super cozy and exactly what our family needed.

What a great place and host!
Our stay at Mike's condo was great! First, Mike was a pleasure to communicate with and the people in the other units were a pleasure to meet and hang out with. The unit was clean, well-stocked and comfortable. The view is fantastic - with dolphins every night, continual "mullet" fish jumping, ducks, turtles, crab. Bring your fishing rod to catch Red Fish and Speckled Trout right off the dock. Be sure to eat at the Tin Top and get some fresh seafood at the local fishery (the Mahi Mahi was great!) to make on the grill/stove. Note - the Galley restaurant right there is closed for an indefinite period of time - which is out of Mike's control but something to be aware of. We will absolutely be back!

Foley Alabama
Our stay in Foley, Alabama was amazing. Their property was perfect even more than what we expected. In fact, we think we are going to make it our yearly trip the fishing was amazing. The people that were around there were so friendly. It was beautiful the property was far enough way, so you’re not in the crowds all the time, but yet close enough to go to the beaches and everything else at the Gulf Shores has to offer. The owner of the property had excellent communication with us. He gave us lots of tips of places to see Anne to do, it was just amazing. I can’t see anything bad about the whole experience.

Great way to experience Gulf Shores
Comfortable cabin on the Bon Secours River where we used the provided kayaks. Watched some dolphins going up and down the river. Short drive to beaches and Gulf State Park. Loved walking the pier and watching the sharks swimming around. Nice biking at the park too. Enjoyed LuLu’s in Golf Shores and Lambert’s in Foley. Plus made a trip to Billy’s market for fresh sea food.

Perfect getaway.
Perfect place for anyone that wants peace and quiet at night. Also, a short drive to town, for all the attractions Gulf Shores and Orange Beach have to offer. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything to make ourselves at home. Quick responses from the host, on check in and info about the area. Will definitely rent again when back in the area.

We were in Gulf Shores for a USSSA softball tournament. The cabin was clean and well stocked. We used the kayaks and the pool and went fishing on the dock. We were close to the fields, beach, shops, & restaurants. We highly recommend this cabin.

Calm and quiet getaway
We stayed in mid-July. While quite warm, the pool was a quick 2 minute walk from the property. Easy commute to the beach (I recommend the pier beach at the state park). The property was clean abd very welcoming. Fishing was great fun as well as just watching the wildlife. Definitely will return with our family!

Loved our little getaway. We had best of both worlds. We wanted to enjoy the beach and do a little fishing. We were able to fish anytime we wanted at the place we were staying and we were only mins from the beach. It was a lovely place to stay. We definitely plan to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Michael McBrayer

Host profile image
My partners and I love to fish. We love boating and just being on the water.

Why they chose this property

This is one very pretty little river. We travel down to the gulf coast constantly. Most of our locations tend to be on the beach or bay so when we happended upon this great place on this terrific river we had to get it. It would be our fishing cabin and we would treat our guest as fellow fishing buds.

What makes this property unique

The beach is nice but the Bon Secour River is really what rest and relaxation is all about. Just having the boat steps away is worth it all. Within minutes you can be catching fish or just cruising the river. Even kayaking up river into the fresh water to catch a bass or get a look at a gator. And world class dining is only a couple of miles away over at Tin Top. And of course all that beach stuff is just down the road.
