Beach Lovers! - Beautiful House, just steps to the beach. Great Location!

The Summer Salt underwent a complete renovation in 2013, and feature large decks on the West and East ends of the house. The West Deck provides a great unobstructed view of the Gulf. The house has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths and a very large great room/kitchen.

We provide satellite TV with televisions in all rooms and wireless internet access. Parking under the house for 1 car with parking for 2 additional vehicles in the driveway.

The maximum occupancy is 6.

The master bedroom has a private bath, patio door to the deck and a king-size bed.

The second bedroom has a twin bed and two bunk beds (sleeps 3). An additional cot sleeps 1 if needed.

Summer Salt is a non-smoking house, and pets and firearms are not allowed.

** The Summer Salt has been updated and a house has been built in the left lot since the location video was made.

Much Needed Relaxation
We had a very relaxing week. My husband played a round of golf every day and I relaxed. We enjoyed walking on the beach at the end of every day. Great location and only a few steps from the beach.

Simply a perfect little house, cottage, bungalow by the beach! Donny & Kay are wonderful hosts, the house is just as pictured including the view of the water, and it’s clean and well stocked for a vacation stay. We had beautiful weather and an uncrowded beach; we’ll definitely be back! Thank you both!

Great location!
This home was perfect for our first family vacation as a family of 4! The proximity to the beach was perfect! There was a restaurant and ice cream shop 2 minutes away which was great! It was 30 minutes from Gulf Shores where we spent 2 days as well. We were able to take the ferry to Dauphine Island one day which was a fun rreat

Father's Day getaway
The house was clean and had everything one could need to cook/eat in for the family . Everyone were happy with their beds ( we didn't use the extra since we were 5ppl. The 100 or so steps to the beach = awesome. We hope to be able to come back some day.

It was perfect for me and husband. The area was quiet. I loved how close we were to the beach however the house could use some updates. The front deck needs trance before someone gets hurt.

Great Vacation
We enjoyed the house. It was close to the beach and was comfortable. The house does need a little maintenance on the stairs. One side has been updated but the other side had some loose boards, handrail, etc. Otherwise, it was nice to be able to see the water from the back deck. The couch was nice and the bed was comfortable. Looking forward to a future stay.
