We had a wonderful stay. Pictures were very accurate. Check-in and out was about as easy as it could be. Was there things that could be fixed/upgraded? Sure, but nothing that would warrant me deducting points. If we decide on Gulf Shores in the future, we'll definitely choose Far Reach again.

What a view and access to the beach

The place was awesome, great private pathway to the beach was our favorite part. It’s a little outdated for the price and the mattresses throughout needs to be out on the side of the road but all in all it’s great. I would definitely stay again here.

Great Family Vacation

The house was great. The right size for my family to have their own space but yet still come together for dinner and evening fun. It was clean, well kept and the kitchen had everything you needed for meals. The beach was awesome and the walkway made for easier access. Great place.
