We had a very gracious host. Perfect location for spring getaway to Bellingrath gardens. Easy drive to Dauphin Island. Bring some cards or board games to enjoy with family. Fabulous comfy couch. Driveway was rough with spring rains. Glad we had SUV

Christmas week

Wonderful break for the holidays. Safe and so very comfortable. A quiet place just a short drive from the beach. Mom loved the large bedrooms and how bright everything was. My sisters (the cooks) truly enjoyed the well stocked kitchen. Thumbs up for the towels and linens. My dog inspected the entire outdoor area. A local orange cat made visit!

Clean remote house with gorgeous yard and no outdoor furniture

The house was clean and roomy, the furniture was mostly new and comfortable. The yard was huge and pretty, with big trees and singing birds, however, there was no outdoor furniture so we couldn't enjoy the outdoors. Still, our dog absolutely loved the outside. The property felt remote and without many conveniences around, but this could be a great place to relax, had there been at least some outdoor chairs. We had to navigate around several huge mud holes on the driveway and I was happy we drove an SUV.

We'll be back!

The house was clean and updated. It was close to Dauphin Island, and Mobile. Just a short drive to many other places. We loved how secluded and serene the location is. Sometimes its nice to be close to the beach without the chaos of a tourist town! We will be back to this house!

Kitchen sure could have been better stocked. For example, we had to buy salt & pepper and more items to be able to cook simple meals. Even utensils. Driveway has large enough holes you could lose a Volkswagen in them. House was very nice and clean. Neighbors like to shoot guns, and have roosters that crow all day long. All in all, we had a great time.

Love our Coden Retreat!!!

House was great and Harmonee was so nice and responsive to everyone of our questions, the only downfall was the dirt road getting to the house which was very ruddy and muddy. I do not believe this is to any fault to the property and it definitely didn't stop us from enjoying our stay.

Groom and his groomsmen were here. Getting there is very difficult at night! The road is one lane, dirt and really bumpy. There are two houses on the street and yours is at the end. It is really dark had a hard time knowing where I was going. The neighbor got really angry, approached me aggressively after I fell in his yard, I felt really threatened. However I did stay.

Perfect location for Bellingrath Gsrdens

House was great, location was great. The only issue is the driveway. The road to the house is not paved and has extremely large holes/ruts. If it’s muddy, you could get stuck. That is the only drawback, otherwise the property is great!

Inside of home was clean and amenities laid out were cute. The description and location of the property is VERY misleading, as there is a run down house and broken down vehicle in the front yard. There is a HUGE pothole in the driveway, along with other potholes. Cinderblocks line one side of the driveway and there’s a tree line on the other side, so there’s no way to navigate around the potholes.
