Bird's Nest

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Bird’s Nest is located on top of a protected dune with spectacular views of Pelican Cove and the Gulf of Mexico. The fabulous views of the water can be enjoyed from the screened-in porch with outdoor dining for four or from the private hot tub where each night you can see the lighthouse light shining beneath the stars. More of a morning person? Then you will love the kitchen, as it is set up to take advantage of more views from the cozy bench seat where you can sip your morning coffee and watch the sunrise. The views continue in the main bedroom with its en-suite bathroom and large soaking tub. The home also has a loft with two twin beds and a second bathroom with a walk-in shower.

This home also has an elevator that enters from the concrete drive and opens to the main living level. Bird lovers will enjoy scanning the trees for the wide varieties of birds that call Dauphin Island home. Who knows, you may even get a chance to see the bald eagle that is often seen in the trees by Bird’s Nest. If visiting during the cooler seasons, the wood-burning stove is a great way to warm up after a winter stroll with the family dog. It doesn’t get any better than Bird’s Nest, where you can step off the deck and have nothing but sand between you and the shoreline.

A short walk will take you to the water's edge of Bienville Beach where you can splash around, swim, and play with the kids. A mile away, you'll find Ship & Shore Supplies Inc. with everything you need to keep your pantry stocked during your stay. Head two-and-a-half miles east to visit Audubon Bird Sanctuary, with maritime forest and walking trails full of spectacular wildlife. Bird lovers will enjoy scanning the trees for the many varieties of birds that call Dauphin Island home.

Good choice if you don’t mind a Sandy walk
We really enjoyed ourselves here. It was a short Sandy walk to the beach and honestly we enjoyed the walk. However, people with mobility issues or not wanting to walk in sand up and down a hill might not enjoy it as much. The house was very clean and well furnished, although the living room furniture could be more comfortable. The elevator from the parking area directly to the living room was a very nice feature. The views were nice and although there are houses close by, there is a sense of privacy from the beach side porch. The kitchen appliances and layout were very nice. In all, the house was very comfortable for us and we enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely beautiful views
This was exactly the little winter getaway we needed! The house overlooks the dunes and is just a little walk down to the water. The deck was my favorites part! The bed is super firm, which we loved but might be too firm for some. The cookware is in desperate need of replacement, but in our experience that seems to be pretty common in vacation rentals. Overall - can't wait to book again next year!

Some things that need to get fixed
The two showers didn't work, only the overhead in the far bathroom. The hot tub didn't get hot enough. And the mirrors above the vanities were too high for me as I'm a short person.
