About this property

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

**We do NOT have a hot tub! VRBO is experiencing a technical issue and has incorrectly added this as an amenity on our listing. 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

Great location

Really loved the location, just a couple minute walk from the beach and there was a lagoon. With a swing on the dock which is where we spent most of our time at night, overall a great place.

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 Vacation

Property was exactly as listed! Very quiet, loved the screened in porch for reading on the rainy days. Fishing and rented paddle boarding were great on the lagoon and the beach was a short walk! A perfect way to reset and get ready for the school year! Thank you!!!

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!

We didn't want to leave!

From the moment we made our reservations until check-out, we were pleased with our selection of this property. The owners responded promptly to questions, stayed connected with us during our stay, and ensured we were comfortable in their home. While the property isn't directly beach front, the water view, pier and fishing opportunities were a fabulous alternative. It was actually nice to get away from all of the beach crowds and grill, relax and enjoy the gorgeous sunset. Absolutely magical stay, and we didn't want to leave!

Perfect Location

We had 7 adults and 1 infant. There was plenty of room. The screened in porch was the best! Fishing off of the private pier was greatly enjoyed. Such a quick walk to the beach. Convenient restaurant, store and ice cream shop right around the corner. Many family members enjoyed evening walks picking up ice cream and taking it to the beach. Very clean!

Second time staying at the beach house

We love this home on the lagoon. The large open living space is great for our family and the bedrooms are perfect so everyone gets their own bed. We enjoyed fishing off the pier everyday. It is so quiet but within walking distance to restaurants, shops, night life. Close walk to the beach as well to enjoy the big water!

Great stay for families!

We enjoyed the stay on the lagoon. We had a few good fishing days when the tide was in. The pier was destroyed in the hurricane so that was not usable for us. We loved the close proximity to the beach as well as a restaurant and grocery store. We loved the 3 bedroom setup. We will definitely stay again!

Perfection

Perfect is how our family would describe this property! Melanie provided everything we needed for a smooth check in. This house is fully stocked and well maintained. There are plenty of games for an easy day at the house. Our family loved spending time on the screened porch, fishing from the private dock, and hanging out under the porch on the picnic table and swing. The location of this home is perfect! It is within walking distance to the beach and minutes from shopping and great restaurants. Thank you Melanie and family for sharing your wonderful home with us! We will definitely check availability for this property when we return to Gulf Shores!

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 children 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.
