Summary of Stay

Tuesday to Tuesday - weekday to weekday recommend - not leaving on a weekend reduces traffic.

  • Weather was great - cool at night, 70s during the day, but very windy (18mph) every day except Monday before Tuesday's departure.  Rain only on Sunday afternoon but otherwise clear to partly cloudy.
  • Overall a great house; elevator a plus;
  • Great covered deck; hurricane screens worked well to keep wind gusts off the porch.
  • Would have been nice to have a dining room light.
  • Instruction manual for the Smart TV would be of benefit.
  • Plans for a walkway over the dunes to the beach will be a nice addition.
  • Meals:  Bahama Bob's x2; Original Oyster House; Amazing Grill (Ft Morgan); Janino's Pizza (not recommended); Tacky Jacks Gulf Shores
