No frills, pet and family friendly cottage in a lovely neighborhood near the beach. Very clean and comfortable with a covered porch that was perfect for AM coffee and rainy afternoons.
Quiet spot in the neighborhood. Easy walk to the middle beach, bike anywhere on the island in minutes. 3rd or 4th stay in this property, price means we can come more often!
Enjoyed our stay on Ohara Drive. The host was easy to contact and always responded quickly. Kitchen was well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Plenty of linens in bathroom. My only complaint was the stairs but maybe that is because I am 77!! Will probably rent it again next year. It was peaceful and quiet.

Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate. Rain & tornado kept us inside for a few days. Not in property management control. However, as advertised, the beach may be within walking distance if you are in your 20's. It's a long walk-through high grass/weed and water. Wife & I in our 70's could not get to it. Only 1 day at the beach was disappointing. Also, a note on the refrigerator stated free parking at the beach if stamped by the police department which is not so, beach is not included with the signed police authorization slip. The home had everything we needed and was comfortable. It is a good deal for the price.
Definitely no frills, we booked this with the intention of not being in it much beyond sleeping and showering and it served us well for that. It might be time for some updating, but it’s usable and for the price, I couldn’t beat it to have our own space. Be prepared if you have younger kids, there is no cable but 31.4 is the channel for old school cartoons the internet worked fine so my teen was happy
The house was as described and Dauphin Island is unadorned and basic. Bring what you need and plan to just relax. No flashing lights but the people are very nice. No night life but a casual and restful place to spend a few days. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for us and our dogs. The pictures on the listing represent the property well, and we had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed watching the hummingbirds come to the feeder while we sat on the porch in the swing. Lovely quiet neighborhood. We will be coming back!
This rental was so cute and perfect for our vacation! If you have a dog that likes to hang outside, I recommend bringing a baby gate to trap them on the porch with you. I used one of the outdoor chairs to block him in a pinch. We will definitely be back! Not to mention Dauphin Island itself was absolutely wonderful!
This property we clean, comfortable and a close drive to everywhere we wanted to go. It's on a quiet street so lots of safe area to walk our dog. We'd totally stay here again.
