As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit overlooking the water for s’mores, conversation, and unforgettable evenings under the stars.

The Cottage
Inside, the guest cottage is warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged for an easy stay. With two floors, there’s room to spread out while still keeping that cozy cottage feel — perfect after long days on the water or exploring Orange Beach.
Owner Presence & Privacy
The guest cottage is located on the same property as the main house, where the owners often reside. They are warm, welcoming, and genuinely enjoy meeting guests — but they fully respect privacy.
Interaction is always guest-led. If you prefer a quiet, private stay, you’ll have it. If you’d like recommendations, conversation, or local tips, they’re happy to share. You’re always in control.
The property also has a friendly senior Labrador named Jack.
Jack is completely harmless and stays primarily in the main house. Guests will only meet him if they ask. You may hear him occasionally, especially when pulling into the driveway, as he likes to announce arrivals. His greatest joy is fetching a frisbee.
