Great view of the bay!

The Views were great. The house was nice. It not new by no means, but was a cute little place to stay. The front room furniture is well loved, and the patio loungers need replaced. Three out of four were broken. The house does sway when others walk through. We didn't let any of that ruin our stay. It was still a peaceful place to stay. Be careful on the beach in the back yard. Glass does wash up from the bay. We did enjoy our stay, and enjoyed Dauphin Island.

June Retreat

We scheduled our June retreat for my Stepdad's and niece's birthday getaway. The house was quiet, rested on a beautiful bay view beach, which was perfect for an 8 and 6-year-old. The house was nicely furnished with plenty of towels and needed commodities, i.e., detergent, soaps, etc. The stairs going up to the house were a bit steep, and my stepfather (72 years old) did have some difficulty going up and down them as he has mobility issues. There were plenty of crabs on the beach at night and the children enjoyed catching them and playing in the sand. The mosquitos were quite bad, but that is par the course for Dauphin Island and nothing the hosts could have done to prevent that. So, if you are going to Dauphin Island this is a nice place to stay. It is located at the end of a street and very quiet. Just remember to bring bug spray, citronelle candles, and plenty of sun screen because you will not want to leave the beach. We had a wonderful time and cannot wait to return in the fall.

Great views!

We really enjoyed the stay and everything was comfortable. Any minor inconvenience that happened upon us was quickly overshadowed by the amazing location and view from the back porch. All in all we would stay here again and enjoy it all the same!

Trip to dolphin Island with our dog Thor he’s a black lab

Glad we got there when we did cause they had a lifetime event with the snow, but we love taking our dog for a walk on the beach. We loved getting fresh seafood at steamers. We were off-season. We enjoyed every sunset. We got a torrential rain so we got to experience why they stilts. We had fun we liked it.

Fabulous views

We stayed for a weeked. The view to the bay is unobstructed. The beach is just a shot walk down a path. The area was quiet and the home was clean. Bring spices if you plan to cook. All appliances were in working order.

Sunset Beach

This is a nice house in a GREAT location. We had plenty of amenities for our 7 day stay. We enjoyed the private beach and lots of walks with our dog. We had good food at Captain Snappers, Island Restaurant and the carriage. We will book here again.

Nice little beach house at end of street

Was reasonable priced compared to other properties near by. It was very quiet day and night and the back deck was great for watching boats and stargazing at night. There were a few issues we didn’t bother contacting management with but overall we loved it and our stay and plan to return.

Great location

For the money, great house, wonderful location. Two items with easy fixes would improve the appeal. One, clean and paint the black spot on the ceiling. Very unsightly. Two, I would not stay here again without this correct. Simply put black out curtains in the queen bedroom to buffer the light streaming in from the neighbor’s 24/7 floodlights being left on and the outside security light. I cannot sleep with the light on and that’s the way it feels! An easy fix to just add the blackout or light filtering curtains.

Sunset Beach

Views of the bridge are great and the sunsets are stunning. We stayed here for two weeks last year and liked it so much that we booked it for four weeks this year and have already reserved it for four weeks next year. Lots of fresh, local, oysters at local restaurants and Skinners fish market is a great place to get locally caught fish to prepare at home. Location is great and you have views of both the bay and the Gulf.

Needs some TLC

Love the privacy this home offers. The beach access is amazing, sunsets from the deck are picture perfect, and being able to bring our two dogs…priceless.

Great vacation with dogs

The house is nice though some features are a bit dated. The views are great. You get a good view to the west as there is no only another house on that side. Great sunset view from the dining room. The windows and doors have low windows which the pups loved to look out. Cleaning crew had done a great job. There were minor maintenance issues which we told management about on checkout.

Beautiful Sunsets

The house was clean with a great floor plan. The location and views were awesome. The provided parking pass gives access to various parking lots on the Gulf side. Bought and cooked lots of fresh seafood from Skinners down the road. Liked it so much, we have already booked another two weeks for next year. A great place for a relaxing vacation!

Missing chances

I have rented this house a couple times and have always enjoyed the location. This time around, there where some things that are making me rethink renting it again in the future.

Peaceful

Nice little house in a great location. Being on the Mississippi Sound was peaceful, like a cottage on a lake. Although the house needed some updates, it was fine for us. But it would of been nice to have a vacuum cleaner and a better grill. We bought a vacuum while we were there, and just used the grill as it was.

Was comfortable, just needs some repairs and attention to detail.

Tub in MB is not usable, no knobs. Bug infestation. Needs a deep clean, outside doors are filthy. One towel was hung in MB, no sheets were left for sofa bed. Really needs updating.

The location and beach was great. Both baths were great. However, the condition of the front and back decks was not safe. In fact, one of our party chair leg went through the back deck and through him out of the chair and on to the deck. The sofa bed had baseball size knots in the mattress. The kitchen had only one fry pan. Nothing to boil shrimp in. The floor had soft places in it. The staff I interacted with was very nice and came to the house the day of our complaint. They did repair the hole in the deck. But there should be work done before it is rented again.

Nice small house, good location, needs attention

Have stayed in this house several years but won’t again. Every year more things are a bit worse. Sewer smell in master bathroom for second year. Dishwasher didn’t work. Reported both items and no one came all week. Bedding needs replacing and stove doesn’t work well. Now you have to check at 3, strip beds and start laundry for them and take out all trash. I don’t mind trash but not my job on vacation to wash sheets for next guest at the price you pay to stay there.
