Been to beach many times, including Orange Beach multiple times, but first time in Gulf Shores. Property was in a great location....footsteps from the beach. Inside was in good condition....just perfect for what we were looking for. BUT, the our beach access was closed because they were dredging in front of the unit(I think that is what it is called) the whole time we were there. No big deal....we just went a mile or 2 up the road to the public beach access. Small inconvenience but nothibg to get upset about. Looking forward to my next stay.
