Great stay on the beach

It was a wonderful stay. The cushioned chairs on the deck and powered leather recliners in the house were so comfortable. The view was awesome, seeing dolphins right off the shore and watching the pelicans dive for fish.

Excellent View

This house was amazing! Dauphin Island is so relaxing. This home was an excellent location to watch dolphins daily in the Gulf. I would highly recommend this home for a lovely escape from the busyness of every day life. We are grateful for an opportunity to refresh and enjoy God’s beauty all around us. Thank you!!!

Amazing Beachhouse

Everything was amazing from walking in to find a welcome card to all the beach toys or the canopy outside. Rooms were plenty big and beds very comfortable! Only issue was the bunk beds would squeak every little move made on them. Definitely would rent this house again.

Grandkid adventure

This house was beautiful with an amazing view ! It was our first trip to the island and loved everything about it ! The house was comfortable and accommodated our group of 12! The porch was great , well furnished and locked ! The grandkids had a blast ! We do feel the house had a few maintenance issues ,the rusted out of commission outdoor shower( had old water hose) squeaking bunk beds, no working blender or scissors and the need for serving bowels for 12 but overall it was probably our best beach trip ever !

A true paradise!

This home is spacious and the layout is absolutely perfect. We were able to have plenty of room for all of our guests. We loved the porch & loved the view! We were able to walk directly onto the beach. It was a dream!

Wonderful Vacation!!

We had 9 adults and 1 child. There was plenty of room for everyone. The patio is great for eating meals, playing games and relaxing while enjoying the view of the ocean. We loved being so close to the beach. We had a great time and will definitely come back!!
