Quaint and Quiet
The owners are very friendly and involved through getting you prepared to visit! The house has amenities such as spices, tupper ware, ziplocks, etc that you never see at a rental. We were perfectly located to everything in foley and GS and two seafood markets in walking distance were a big plus. You must also eat a Tin Top i cannot tell you have wonderful, you must try it for yourself!

Absolutely Wonderful
This place is everything as it is described and more . If you are looking for a place of relaxation and a home like feeling this is it . Not to far from town and shopping . The two seafood markets next door are both amazing with lots of choices to pick from of the freshest seafood . Tin Top restaurant a mile up the road is absolutely fabulous as well and try their sautéed crab claws . We loved being able to walk out across the road and drop a crab trap and catch the largest blue crabs we have ever caught from the gulf and have them for dinner . We also enjoyed teaching my son how to fish from the large and long pier . We saw dolphins each day playing around and some got pretty close to where you could really see them . The owners are amazing to work with and communicate with you and answer any questions you may have . The kitchen is fully stocked to prepare meals from bake wear to a cast iron skillet . The neighbors who live in this little community are so kind and helpful as well . We enjoyed meeting them. The fire pit located out the back door is an amazing little spot to kick back relax and enjoy a nice cup of coffee or hot chocolate on a cold evening. We definitely plan to come again and enjoy the little piece of paradise . Thanks for a wonderful stay !

Leisure Time
The property is exactly as listed! Everything is extremely nice and up to date. Anyone that stays here should have everything they need for a comfortable visit. I’m sure if you were to need something extra that the hosts would try to accommodate you. The pier is set up for fishing and a cleaning station for your catch. If you are not into fishing it is also a great place to watch the boats come in and go out. It has plenty of seating and a swing all under cover. If you stay once you will want to go back.

Comfy Cottage Getaway
The listing pictures are very accurate. The cottage exceeded my expectations! It was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and so very comfortable! Although the location is simple living, the appliances, countertops and furniture are more high end. The host couple is easy to reach and eager to please. Everything one would need is in the cottage. The hostess has done a fantastic job of anticipating every need. The recliners and the bed are very comfortable. It's a great sight-seeing base or a low-key, comfy place to hang out. I highly recommend the HyTide Cottage!

Great stay
This cottage was exactly as listed. There are so many good things I can say about this listening from start to finish. Donna was a pleasure to work with. She wanted to ensure that everything was perfect. The cottage was very clean and it had everything we needed. It was so comfortable and cozy that we felt at home. My husband and I needed this getaway and HyTide was the perfect choice for us. Actually, we didnt want to leave. Easy to say we will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Chris and Donna Hyche

Host profile image
A lifetime Alabama resident, I grew up enjoying the Alabama Gulf Coast and enjoy sharing this beautiful area with others. As a sales professional in the industrial marketplace, I spend a lot of time behind the wheel and have found few places like Bon Secour. Donna has worked as an educator for over 30 years and the peace and quiet of this area is a welcome reprieve to hours in the classroom.

Why they chose this property

Growing up vacationing on the Alabama Gulf Coast, we discovered this area in the 1960's. My family purchased a cabin in the Bon Secour area in 1985 and have come to treasure the peace and quiet this community affords. Whether its sitting on the pier and watching the dolphins and pelicans at play or walking down to Billy's Seafood for steamed shrimp fresh off of the boat, it is safe to say there is no other place quiet like the Cottages at Bon Secour. While we hope to one day retire to this area, we are now content to share our secret with those who also appreciate this unique riverfront lifestyle.

What makes this property unique

The proximity of the Gulf Coast beaches and excellent seafood serve as additional benefits to the peace and quiet of this area. When you have had all of the sun, sand and people you can handle, our place provides the ideal setting to relax and unwind.
