Perfect stay with more than enough room for three old friends getting together to relax and do a little fishing. Didn’t even have to leave the property to wet a line, kitchen was well equipped for in-depth cooking, and beds were comfortable. Not sure what else you could ask for.

This home was perfect for the gulf and for the bay. Super easy walk in either direction. House was clean and ready for us. Communication with the host was excellent. They had great suggestions and very quick responses to everything. This space accommodated 2 families with kids perfectly. Some very minor upkeep could go along way but that would not deter me from booking again or suggesting this house to others.

Family Beach Trip

We had a great stay in Dauphin Island and this home was a perfect fit! We loved the location to town, the beach and water view. The owner was always available and quick to respond. The option to rent the golf cart was a great add on and we used it for three days. We will be back again!

The best getaway

I was impressed with the pictures shown on the listing, but being there has been a dream! Gorgeous space with plenty of amenities and supplies left for our use. If you bring a big group, you will not be disappointed. Just post a sign up list for shower times. Our big group had an amazing time!

I brought the boat down and the idea of a boat ramp on the property was key to our booking. I realized its best to use the ramp while the water is high in the morning. The home itself was great. They had some open pit areas during our stay but I suspect that will be completed shortly as it was construction of the sea wall. very clean. large home. no real complaints at all.

Perfect family house

We have been to Destin and Gulf shores the last few years but wanted sometime with a slower pace. This island was absolutely the best. Our house was perfectly situated with the bay on one side and with the beach on the other. The owners were very helpful and responded promptly. Definitely will come back!

Place is really awesome

The place is really awesome and the Beach view on both sides of the property is very beautiful. The property owner is really very communicative. Only I suggest to the property owner is to treat the Deck woods as kids and myself got splintered in to hands and legs when they were playing outside.

Not what You would Expect

This property was misleading by its photos. It was filthy, Everything was filthy. Dead cockroaches, mouse poop on counters, food on the stove, nasty dirt on baseboard and doors. Floors were not swept. Very disappointing to say the least. Host was rude and told me I should have some grace for others situations, and I was wrong to be upset because she was having to replace a washer during my vacation stay. She was mad because we had to find somewhere else to stay in order to assure ourselves that we would not be subjected to rodents and bugs from her cleaning negligence.

About the host

Host profile image

We're from Birmingham about 4 hours north of the island. We came down to visit with our dogs and fell in love! We love cruising the island on the golf cart and catching sand crabs at dusk!

Why they chose this property

Dauphin island is a hidden treasure! Its one of the last places that feels like you step back in time when you arrive on the island. Everyone moves at island speed!!

What makes this property unique

We are located on the canal, with water access to the bay or beach. The bay is made for walks on the beach with the best sunset views. The beach is great for catching sun rays and making memories.
