Beautiful property on the water
Property manager was amazing to work with, I had accidentally not booked for all the days of our trip, messaged him, and he extended the stay with no hassle at all. Property was clean and nice, staying on the water made docking the boat at the house a breeze. I will be booking this property again in the future. 10/10 recommend

Always a Wonderful Stay
This has to be the most enjoyable place to come home to after a hard day's work. Watching the wildlife in the back yard or fishing removes all stress. I will seek this stay out when I return to the Fowl River for work.
Thank you, Ken!

Laid back
The house was beautiful, and everything they said in the ad was spot on. I took my grandson out back to fish and it wasn't long before he caught one. I loved the place and definitely will be recommending to family and friends.
The only problem was the wifi it could have been better.
Nice property, rustic, well-maintained, very clean, prompt friendly communication with the host. Would stay there again

Peaceful Getaway
We were looking for a place that was convenient to Mobile & Dauphin Island. This was a great location with a beautiful setting on a canal leading into Fowl River. We really enjoyed using the crab traps and just listening to all of the birds while drinking coffee on the back porch. Ken & Sheila were fabulous hosts and even offered to mail back some clothing we accidentally left behind.

Mobile Visit by the River
Absolutely beautiful property with water access. Lovely home with everything you could wish. Ken was a magnificent host. My one regret is we sid not have a chance to invite him for dinner.
I hope to be able to rent the next time we visit Mobile, and surely we can enjoy Ken's company then.
