Got a tank of gas? Head to the beach.
Rental agents are hoping high gas prices won't stop vacationers from driving to vacation at Gulf beach condominiums, especially travelers within a 350- to 500-mile radius.
"The price of gas is a big thing this season, and we are watching it," said Marie Curren of Brett Robinson Real Estate & Development Co. in Orange Beach. "The condo owners are trusting us to generate some revenue, and it's something we balance one day at a time. The majority of our business on the Gulf comes from within the state, and we've not seen that decline, which is great."
