The house is in the perfect spot for the beach. The deck needs to be replaced, the boards were very loose. For the most part the house was clean but the front door hasn't been cleaned in awhile. The ice maker didn't work so we had to buy ice. All in all the house was good for us just not kept up very well.

We really enjoyed out stay, 6 adults and 3 kids. Everything was clean and house layout was great. Perfect access to beach and the kids LOVED the small pool. Only complaint was that some of the wood on front and back patio really needs replaced.

Beautiful location

The location couldn’t be better! You step off the deck and you are on the beach. The inside of the house was perfect for our family. Everyone has their own space. The front porch and back deck need a little work, but I believe the hosts are aware. We would definitely book again.

Boscos was great!!

Location, location, location!!! Awesome to walk from deck directly onto beach and 25 yards to Gulf! Pool was nice refresher from the August heat. House is older and could use some updating with soft spots throughout in the flooring but we will definitely try to get back because the LOCATION is fantastic!

This property was perfect for our group of 5. We had everything we need with extra supplies when we arrived ! Only suggestion would be to have some type cover for the patio , it does get warm during the day. We can’t wait to go back !

Nice beachfront location but a bit old and dirty

Loved being right on the beach but the house itself is in need of some deep cleaning, maintenance, and updates. The split layout of the house was good for our group, but the bathrooms are quite small (especially the showers). Was good to have a full-size washer and dryer and a big refrigerator, but the ice maker in the fridge didn't work properly. The beds were comfortable, but the sofa was sagging and dirty. Kitchen was well-stocked, although some of the cabinets were junked up with mismatched kitchenware, a crockpot collection, etc. The pool was a nice bonus that the kids enjoyed when they needed a beach break. We also appreciated having lots of beach chairs, toys, floaties, etc. to use during our stay.

If you want a pure beach experience, visit Boscos.

We stayed Thanksgiving week at Boscos. The size and layout was perfect for two couples and one adult child. It was closer to the water than we gathered from the add which was a welcome plus. Quiet with minimal beach traffic. It is an older property (though it has been updated) so if you’re looking for brand new, this may not be the place for you. We found it reminiscent of childhood vacations at the beach and just what we were looking for. We would definitely go back.

We were so impressed with this house; it was very clean. There were some soft spots on the floor but other than that is was a perfect house to stay in. There was plenty of beach and pool toys. The kitchen had everything we needed. We will definitely be back. Thank you for such an amazing time.

Absolutely loved, want to go again!

Melissa is great! You can not beat the location! Let me repeat nothing is better than being right on the beach, especially with little ones! Little pool was so fun for them too, felt refreshing during our stay in July. Outdoor shower and hoses definitely came in handy! All the beds were super comfy. Neighborhood was so pleasant. We like being away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy beach scene, but within a quick drive to have some fun in Gulf Shores.

Family vacation young and old

This house was wonderful for eight adults and two children under two. Proximity to the beach and the covered pool is a real benefit. We had to do very little childproofing. The kitchen is very well equipped if you desire to cook. Our little ones quickly became used to “showering” since there isn’t a tub. Not such a problem. It was a very enjoyable vacation with multi generators.

Perfect family beach house!

Our beach vacation could not have been any better! This beach house exceeded our expectations. The house was clean, roomy, and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we could have needed. The living room was big enough for all 8 of us to hang out. Bedrooms were cozy and plenty big enough. The location was absolutely perfect! The check-in and check-out process was simple and owners were very responsive. We hated to leave this house and can’t wait to return again for future vacations. If I could give this rental 10 stars I would.

We spent Thanksgiving week here and had an amazing time! The house is well furnished with beautiful decor and a lot of open space. We prepared all our meals during our entire stay including Thanksgiving dinner. The kitchen is well stocked and even includes extras that past renters have left. This includes spices, aluminum foil etc. Melissa was always prompt to respond with any questions and even us accommodated with an early check in at our request. We look forward to coming back!
