Outdoor Living at Its Best
This is where the cottage truly shines. Spend your days swimming off the dock, wading in the calm, shallow water near the shore, or relaxing on the deck with sweeping bay views. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit overlooking the water for s’mores, conversation, and unforgettable evenings under the stars.
The pier and dock are ideal for fishing, lounging, or heading out on the water — whether you bring your own boat or simply enjoy the coastal scenery.
The Cottage
Inside, the guest cottage is warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged for an easy stay. With two floors, there’s room to spread out while still keeping that cozy cottage feel — perfect after long days on the water or exploring Orange Beach.
Owner Presence & Privacy
The guest cottage is located on the same property as the main house, where the owners often reside. They are warm, welcoming, and genuinely enjoy meeting guests — but they fully respect privacy.

The property also has a friendly senior Labrador named Jack 🐾
Jack is completely harmless and stays primarily in the main house. Guests will only meet him if they ask. You may hear him occasionally, especially when pulling into the driveway, as he likes to announce arrivals. His greatest joy is fetching a frisbee.

We had a great time! The owners and Jack(dog) were right next door but we barely saw them. Such a cool place to hang out for a few days

Southern hospitality at its finest! Daniel & Cindy were amazing hosts. Their local recommendations were spot on - Reileigh's was 10/10! The property was about 20-30 from the typical beach attractions, which is perfect if you are looking for a quiet retreat after a busy day of beach fun. The scenery....wow! Best view we have ever had while visiting the coast! There are stairs & the bathrooms were a little tight, but the bed was incredibly comfortable & having a screened in porch made sitting outside enjoyable. And the dock... worth the trip!! Definitely a perfect choice for anyone looking for great views and peaceful serenity!

This place is truly a GEM! The layout and the amenities were perfect for us to relax, unwind, and experience wildlife. Our host was quick to communicate and make sure we were well taken care of. Felt like a home away from home. Thanks for having us! Look forward to coming back!

Amazing host and property. My 4 kids (ages 3 thru 9) and I set out to find a property that was off the beaten path but still accessible to the area’s amenities (OWA, Tanger, beach…etc) and this checked all boxes for us. The kids fished every morning and evening at the boat house and in between, they enjoyed the outdoor spaces to burn off that toddler/tween energy. The home was well appointed and clean. We had a wonderful time and it was all we hoped for and left little to be desired I’ll be back, Daniel!!!…leave the light on for me!

The view at the water is absolutely breathtaking. From the beginning, prior to arrival, when I initially booked, the host was prompt in reaching out to me, which is a plus in my book, because I love communication. The space was clean and kept nicely, which is also a plus, because I’m a extremely clean individual and I don’t play about my house or other’s home while they are in my care, no exceptions! Needless to say we took care of this space and left it as we found it. We were surrounded by beautiful people, those we came into contact with, which put icing on my cake, figuratively speaking, it was my birthday. The sunrise and sunsets were remarkable! Even the dog we became to know by the name of Jack was a sweetheart. We also had the extraordinary opportunity to see live dolphins swimming near the waters where this boat house is located. If you are looking for peace, beauty, stillness, and some fresh air, you are definitely looking into the right place! I even slept on the porch a couple of nights because I felt safe and the environment allowed me this freedom. It’s a 10 star in my book, so book!🫶🏽
