Josie's Place, Orange Beach, Alabama Vacation Rental by Owner

So nice!! The pool was outstanding. The dock with swing was great. We caught fish and also lots of crabs. AC was very cold which is always a plus. The pool table was nice. We had several tournaments. The kitchen had lots of pots, pans, utensils. I would highly recommend this property.

Wonderful stay, 12 members of the family, no problems, plenty of space. The kids loved the pool and sand. Nice to be in gated community, very well kept neighborhood and secure. Lots of privacy.

It was a wonderful experience. Plenty of room, a great location, nice and efficient owner. The house has been used over the years and shows its wear and tear. Would probably stay again IF the carpet was replaced with tile or some other pet-friendly surface. Dock was nice for our own boat. Didn't catch much fish, but it was a blast cruising around and visiting the different eateries and bars.

We really enjoyed the property, especially the dock for fishing. The pool was also great, and when there was a problem with it caused by an abundance of rain, the owner was very responsive and got the problem fixed as quickly as possible.

The owner is a bit rough around the edges and is not good at preparing people for her requirements to stay at the property. The house is well equipped and perfect for a very relaxing vacation. The overall maintenance of the home is not great but the pool and hot tub were awesome and the dock is very nice and offers great fishing for red fish and sea trout which we caught many. Overall I highly recommend this property but if you're hoping for the Taj Mahal you'll be disappointed !

Great stay, property was clean, comfortable and plenty of room for everyone. The boat dock was a huge plus. Good communication with owner, any thing that need attention was taken care of promptly.

This home has a perfect setup for a large group. The location is close to everything and the Pool, Hot Tub and Dock are great. I would recommend renting this home.

Nice property, could use some updating but given the state of ongoing post Hurricane repairs at other homes in the area they have done an excellent job. Amenities were nice and the owner is terrific. Would stay again if bringing a large group.

This property has an amazing location, outdoor amenities and also perfect size for a large group! The pool and hot tub are great additions to the property. We stayed shortly after a hurricane swept through and destroyed the dock/boathouse. Would have been even better if that was accessible, but understand the circumstances with the repairs :) The property manager was great about notifiying us about the status of certain rooms due to the hurricane damage. The house is the perfect size for a large group and kids - two masters on the main floor with large bedrooms upstairs and downstairs. However, we ran into several minor issues. We booked this home specifically over Thanksgiving and purchased ALOT of groceries to cook. Thanksgiving morning we come to find that the oven doesnt work (turns on but doesnt heat over 200 degrees). I notified the property manager and was told to use the Conventional Bake setting, but that didnt work either. Luckily we had some food to cook that did not require an oven, but we were unable to cook our turkey and a few other casserole dishes. It would have been nice to know in advance about the oven so we could make other food arrangements or book an alternative property. The sink disposal also didnt work, flooding the sink on multiple occasions during clean-up, so that probably needs to be replaced as well. The refridgerator shelves were constantly falling off if you placed items on them also. Commuincation with the property manager was great - almost too communicative. When I didnt pick up the phone immediately after notifying them about the oven (I was outside), I was called four times in a row and then asked for a different contact number for not picking up immediately on Thanksgiving day. We did misplace a few items after departure, and the property manager was very helpful in trying to find them. Overall we had a wonderful time at this property, but wouldnt want to stay longer than 4 nights. The rental rate is good for the size and location or the property, but it seems that the house is bound to fall apart / need several repairs after a few more VRBO stays.
