Great location if you are birdwatching. The common nighthawk visited our porch every night. The fort is about 2 miles from the house. Great for birdwatching. The heated pool was perfect for me and my granddaughters first time at the beach and swimming. Highly recommend.

We had the most wonderful week at Ona house. We loved being able to bring our dog with us to enjoy the beach with us as a family. We talk about this trip often and how perfect it was! It is a little bit of a drive to “town”, but we didn’t mind at all. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Nice place near the beach
This property was recently remodeled and looks great. Everything works as it should. Bonus points for the heated pool as the wind blew the jellyfish ashore the week I was there, and the Gulf water was a tad on the chilly side anyway. There is a partial Bay view as well, and I caught a few sunsets from the deck.
4 full size cars will easily fit underneath the house, you can get more vehicles under there if they are small cars.
Note that the property has 2 bathrooms, but both are only accessible from the hallway - no "master bath" here. It wasn't an issue for me as I was traveling alone.
The beach view is decent for now, until the 2 lots in front are built on.
There are a few restaurants and a Dollar General close by, but if you do have to go to Gulf Shores for anything, the drive isn't that bad.

Two adults, one child, and two dogs enjoyed our stay. The Ona house had easy access to the beach, plus beach supplies. The house was nice and clean, plus super comfy. The pool was an added bonus. I’d never been to the beach in the fall, but I will definitely be going back. The weather was perfect. Thank you, Mr. Tom for being a great host.

Amazing Beach Vacation!
The Ona House was exactly as listed. The home itself was beautiful and well organized.
There were more than enough linens, blankets, kitchen supplies, seating, etc. for our party of 9. The bedrooms were tastefully decorated and beds were comfortable. We spent many afternoons in the pool enjoying the day! The beach was a short walk away and wasn't crowded at all! We all had such a wonderful time. The communication with Tom was clear and very helpful. I highly recommend visiting this property, it was everything we hoped for and more!
