| This was a great condo. The place was clean, the beds were comfortable, everything worked and the balcony view was fantastic! We really enjoyed our stay at the Freebird. Brett Crow was very easy to work with for the deposit and payments. |

| This was a ladies get-a-way weekend and all of the ladies loved the condo. We were very comfortable and loved the view! Mr. Crow made the whole process very easy and always willing to be available for any questions you might have about the condo. I received my security deposit back a week after our trip. Our group wants to make this an annual affair and we will most definitely come back to this condo! |

Very enjoyable experience all around. The owner's communication prior to arrival was extremely helpful, the unit was very comfortable, very pleasing to the eye, convenient, and affords breath-taking views of the sunrise and beach.
We would come back to this unit in the future. |

| Im a little slow, we stayed here in October and had a wonderful time. Everything was as advertised. Wonderful views, great location, plenty of space. We were able to walk to the shrimp festival and were only a short drive to everything else. Brett was also extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. |

| We stayed at this condo for about three weeks and absolutely loved it! The views and location were tops. We have stayed at three other condos in the past in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area and this one by far exceeded our expectations. I was worried about having enough room, but when our children and spouses visited us during our stay, we had plenty of room. This is the first time for us to rent from VRBO. We found Mr. Crow to be very helpful, and he truly wanted us to have a good time. We have no negative points to convey. In additon to the great views and location, we also liked the pool area, the workout room, the beach access,and the large balcony. I must mention that the keyless entry was a plus when our children arrived. |

| Our family of 5 had a wonderful time this year as well as last year. The children had their own room with plenty of space to play and watch their OWN tv. Clean and spacious rooms. They loved the view, the pool, hot tubs, and the beach. This is our family destination for vacation and would highly recommend this to others. AAA+++ all the way. thanks so very much! |

My wife and I celebrated our 31st anniversary at the freebird and it was fabulous not to mention what a grand host Mr. Crow was. The sunrises,
the sunsets,the food, the people and the laid back atmosphere was wonderful.
We with out question will stay here again. This was one of the best if not the very best vacation spots my wife and I have ever visited in the good ole U. S . of A. I would highly recomend the freebird to any one heading to gulf shores it was very clean beautifuly furnished and close to everything. Thanks for a peaceful
enjoyable stay Mr. Crow.

| I looked for a big condo,a beach not crowded, and I had to have a perfect view. I found it!! The balcony was perfect. It really did feel like you were floating on the water. I got up before sunrise every morning started a pot of coffee and watched the sun rise from the balcony or the beach. I even got a great picture of a rainbow that started right on the beach in front of me. The guy was right about old world pizza. Try the spaghetti and meatballs. I loved this place!!! Will be back!!! |

| My wife and I stayed in your condo for 10 weeks and had a very enjoyable time. Walks every day on the beautiful white sand beach was a real highlight of our stay. We love the water no matter where we go and the ocean sound at night was just great. The condo is very comfortable and there was enough room to accomadate our children when they stopped down in January and March. The proximity to all the wonderful resteruants is a plus. I would like t put in a plug for DeSotos resteraunt. Their food is wonderful. If you are in the mood for pizza, the Old World Pizza in right next door and they deliver a really good pizza at a good price. There are so many places to eat and shop nearby that makes your location wonderful. I hope we can see fit to return again. |

| We had a fantastic time at your condo. The pictures do not do it justice. The breathtaking view of the morning sunrise from the balcony was beyond picture perfect. We look forward to Oct. 2008 and hope to be able to stay with you again. |

Freebird Review
We had an excellent, restful stay in this beautiful
condo on a wide white beach, at Island Royale. The
furnishings are new,attractive, and comfortable. The
kitchen is extremely well-equipped and a heavy duty
washer and dryer made life really easy. The views are
breathtaking with windows on three sides and a
spacious balcony overlooking the gulf, with room for
eating and sunning. Everyone enjoyed the huge screen
t.v. and there were t.v.s in each bedroom for games or
personal program choices. The facilities in the
building were well-maintained and we used the heated
pool, hot tubs and fitness room and sauna most days.
The location of the condo is close to fabulous seafood
restaurants , grocery shopping, and a Wal-Mart
Supercentre. Movies, golf, Gulf State Park and a
discount mall are only a short drive away. The parking
is covered and convenient for unloading, as well. The

We have been visiting Gulf Shores for over 20 years
and this is the best condo experience we have ever
experienced!
This condo is more like a home. It is so comfortable
and has everything that you could ever want or
need.
I just want to say thank you for sharing your beach
home with us. We had a fantastic time and will
definitely return next summer. |

The accommodations were perfect. The condo was modern, comfortable,and clean. The kitchen and living room furniture and the beds seemed brand new. We converted the two twins into a king using a kit, and it was still comfortable. Everything we needed was already there (dishes for cooking, beach chairs, skimboard, etc.). The view was spectacular and the private beach was serene. The owners were caring and a pleasure to work with. We really could not have asked for anything more.
We will definitely rent this unit again.
Except next time, we will stay longer. |

| Stayed a few days during spring break 2007 and had a great time (my wife and I along with our two daughters 16 & 13 and each brought a friend). The condo was great and the view awesome. Unobstructed/direct ocean front!! The description is exactly as the information states. All furnishings are in excellent condition. Close enough to walk and shop for souvenirs. Hoping to be able to visit again. |
