I had a relaxing stay at the property. It was clean and the most well-stocked kitchen I've ever had at a VRBO. A terrific place to stay!

My family and I had a wonderful time staying in this cute cottage on the river. We were able to have daily adventures kayaking on the river, going to the beach, the zoo and venturing to several little towns in the area. We enjoyed cooking each night together. We had an all around great time.
Great little cottage/cabin on the outskirts of Foley. Nestled in a cute little river neighborhood, surrounded by nature this house feels like your miles away for the hustle and bustle of the Gulf Shore.
Great for Baseball Families in town for PG games, or family on vacation.
Bring your own laundry detergent if you need to do laundry, but otherwise the home is well stocked! Cooked breakfast every day and dinner a few times too with no issues.
Beds are a fine, a bit hard for my preference (and egg crate or topper would be perfect), but they are fine.
Things we loved:Nice location and easy to find. Charming setting of the Fish River. Access to the river via Kayaks was a nice amenity. We cooked several meals there and enjoyed them out on the outdoor patio or in the sun room. Kitchen was well stocked. Playing a game of hatchet toss was a lot of fun for everyone. Betty's book of information was very helpful.Things we noticed:A little lacking in "Welcome Hospitality Items" Would have liked to see at least a few coffee pods and creamers to get us started that first morning. Also a small bar of bath soap in the second bathroom would have been helpful. Overall a great experience!
