We have stayed here, several times and it is the highlight of our year. We look forward to next year's vacation. It suits us to a T. We can't thank our hosts enough for the wonderful memories we have made there.

Location is the best, right on the canal and 4 minute walk to the beach. The kitchen has EVERYTHING. We cooked big meals with ease. The entire property not just the rooms were very clean. There is also a nice dock to fish and crab from. Mr Marks allows the use of the crab traps. Communication was very prompt when I informed Mr Marks we arrived but with great instructions on how everything works none was required during our stay. The interior is extremely cozy and comfortable all around. In other words we felt at ease and at home. The view of Mobile Bay from the back porch, well, no words to explain the beauty. We will be spending all our vacation time at Marks the Spot. Thank you so much Mark & Mellisa Marks.

We stayed at this house for nearly a week. Our review of this property is mixed:*Some of the photos on this listing need to be updated: there were photos depicting the view of the bay which showed a green space across from the house, however, this green space no longer exists as there are now 2 large, 2-story houses there. May want to ask for updated pics before renting this house if the view is of importance.*The 2 houses across the bay and another 2 doors down (all in very close proximity) were under construction during our stay. The owners did not notify us about the construcrtion until the day of our arrival. Next door neighbors advised us construction started a year ago.*Noise from the construction resulted in us often not being able to enjoy the outdoor space. A couple days it was so loud, we left the house. Recommend inquiring as to the current state of construction before renting.*We were advised on the day of arrival that a starter supply of paper towels/TP was provided & that we would need to buy more; a little more advance notice would have been appreciated. We don't mind bringing our own supplies, but by the time we were notified, we had left home and were on the road*Many of the windows could not be opened or had screens full of large holes*House was very clean upon our arrival*Kitchen was well stocked; huge supply of plates, glasses, coffee mugs, utensils, etc.
