We are on a peninsula surrounded by water, so please expect insects around Gulf Shores and the property. You are coming to experience the area and stay in one of the beautiful cottages; we cannot control anything beyond our service and inside the home.

Guess have access to all areas of the community. Two parking passes are available. If you need a third, let us know in advance as we will need to locate an available spot. 100 for third spot paid to the Community Owners Association. Failure to put parking passes in dashboard can cause large fines.

You will receive the door entrance code a couple of days prior to arrival. If the home is left in good condition prior to your arrival we maybe able to let you arrive early. We ask everyone to leave the home how you found it, it gives everyone a chance to have almost an extra full day extra at the beach!

During the Winter Season the Bodenheimer Center offers 10 daily pass for heated indoor pool classes and gym facilities tennis courts etc.

I’m available almost 24/7 everyday of the year. And if I’m not available, I will try and have someone available for you.

As you enter the Rookery 3 Community, you are greeted with a little sail boat and colorful cottages throughout the community.
You will be surrounded by Bon Secour National wildlife reserve. Palm trees outside home. A pool is to the right just as you enter and pass the security stand. This cottage will be the second left street (Mockingbird), directly across from the first pool. A community house and second pool is very close, just cross the bridge and turn left. Bring floats and chairs if all the seating is gone at the pool but it's highly unlikely unless there is a family reunion going on. Parking is available at the second pool or it's just a short walk from the cottage.

At night you just may hear the frogs sing to you or maybe if you're lucky a baby alligator.

Drive to/from town in 20 minutes . Golfcart rentals are in the area if you prefer it for going back and forth to the beach and in the community. Everyone loves renting golf carts as Rookery 3 has trails you can go down which take you directly to the beach. The kids love it ! Some people drive on the bike path or on the sand path on the side of the road also to get to the beach. Easy drive to the grocery store and restaurant, Sassy Bass, on the golf cart as ours is road registered. If you have the right insurance you can do that too.

Bring your bikes with you to the Rookery 3 and ride as there is a bike path on the side of the road. Gulf State park also has bike paths. We have lots of bike trails in the area. Bring your kayaks and go for a trip down mobile bay or off the Kayak paths on Fort Morgan Road. This area is full of adventures, but Rookery3 gives you the peace of mind, calmness, security and comfort of letting your kids out to play without being on guard 24/7 . It’s such a great community. We are all family here .

Starting 10/27/25 Airbnb will collect their 15.5% fee directly from owners/hosts. As a result, guests will see a 15.5% higher nightly rate and no longer see Airbnb's 15.5% guest fee as a line item charge in payment info. Be assured your cost has not increased, just your view of how Airbnb collects its earnings.
