LRhodes is on a distinguished road
Orange Beach, AL . . . INFO

Be sure to visit FloraBama Bar, you have to go if you are in the area, just to tell everyone you have been. It is a hole in the wall, but a fun place. They are having the Annual Mullet Toss this weekend. A bunch of drunks throwing dead mullet across the FL/AL state line, all for a good cause.

Most visitors love going to LuLus, Jimmy Buffet's sisters restuarant and bar, it is about 4 miles from the Wharf in Gulf Shores. Go down canal rd te Gulf Shores, when you get to Highway 59 you will go North over the bridge turn right at the foot of the bridge, then take the first road on the right and you will start seeing cars. Long waits, but decent food and great atmosphere.

Rafters is a cool Sports Bar on the 2nd level at the Wharf. Live Bait at the Wharf is nice and so is Live Bait 2 on the beach road. VIP lounge is on Canal Road not far from the Wharf.
Historic Fort Morgan is about 25 miles from where you are staying. The famous saying "Damn the torpedos, full speed ahead" was uttered at this Fort. I am sure there is a link to the Fort at the CVB site I sent earlier. You can actually Tour thru the fort.
Hope you all enjoy the area.
