About this property

Summary:
This 2600 sq/ft, newly renovated 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom with additional 2nd floor sleeping area was designed for large families looking for a large space to enjoy a quiet island getaway to the picturesque coastal town of Dauphin Island. This two story home has beautiful views of the water in Colony Cove on Dauphin Island's East End. There's even a public park right out front that has the best fishing on the island! Come get a true taste of island life at this beautiful Gulf Coast getaway.

The Space:
We have recently redone the deck set up this house and res painted it! The teal pictures show the new deck layout. This house is a very open floor plan with great views from every room! The kids will enjoy the ping pong/pool table upstairs! The 3 porch areas, one screened in are a great place to relax, cook out and enjoy family time! The upstairs is a game room/sleeping area with a pool table/ping pong table area and two bunk beds.

Guest Access:
The whole house, porches, screened in patios and yard is yours to enjoy! This is one of the best locations on the island! You can fish right across the street!

The Neighborhood:
There are several public beach accesses that are a 3 to 5 minute drive away! The island is only 10 miles long so everything on the island is close by!

Getting Around:
Because of the ideal location of the property on the East End, guests can take a quick drive or easily bike or walk to nearby attractions and restaurants. Although there is no public transportation, there are miles of walking and biking trails around the island that makes getting around a breeze. There is parking for up to 4 cars in the driveway in front of the home.

Perfect location. What you see is NOT what you get on VRBO listing however….

Location, location, location is what this property is ALL ABOUT! We got great use out of the backwater fishing right across the street! The view was spectacular from the front porch! The space is set up perfectly for our 2 families. Cleanliness of this property is desperately lacking however and several things inside need repair/cleaning. The entire front end of the house is wonderfully remodeled and decorated. As you get to the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen however…Kitchen was clean but not fully stocked and the drawers all fell outward when opened, not sturdy at all. Bedrooms were dirty with cobwebs and previous renters receipts not far under the beds. Bathrooms need updating with sinks and shower heads, but we’re stocked. The pictures that we saw on VRBO were not of the house we pulled up to upon arrival. Most obvious was the color of the home, previously grey, now a bright aqua with coral accents! This was a nice surprise and looked lovely. A FOR SALE sign in the front yard was a bit concerning. The back deck had been redesigned and was no longer large and connected as seen on VRBO. The grill was MOLDY, we had to clean it with tin foil and burn off the dirt prior to making our dinner the first night. Very concerning was the lack of safeguards on the screened in deck. There were none, as previously seen in VRBO photos. Not sure how that is allowed. VRBO also showed a fire pit in the yard, that was no longer there. Spoke with a manager who didn’t know the house was….
