House and location were great. Just needs a couple small fixes like the front door. But outside of that, great house.

Overall good. Clean but tired. Mattresses need an upgrade in all bedrooms-especially the master. It was just two old twins pushed together. The toilet ran continuously unless the water source was turned off. Fairly clean, good communication with host. Overall, nice.

Good location, plenty of room

House location and proximity to beach (with parking pass) was great! Easy to get in and out of. Bedroom and bathroom layout worked well for our family of 4. Great family room and seating for movies and video games.

Thank you Vacasa for making our experience so easy! The home we stayed in truly had character! The "Gothic" chandelier was topic of conversation for 2 days lol from where did it come from to I bet it was in a home in Hollywood! All in all, this was truly an amazing experience. Thank you!

The High Point: Great Location, But Needs Attention

The High Point has a lot of potential. The location is fantastic — just a short walk to the beach and close to all the local spots on Dauphin Island. You really can’t beat the convenience if you’re looking to relax and explore the area. That said, our experience at the house left a lot to be desired. When we arrived, we found two large live roaches inside, which was not the welcome we were hoping for. The furniture was noticeably stained, which made the space feel less clean and cared for. The mattress was also very uncomfortable, which made it hard to get quality rest during our stay. One of the biggest concerns was the broken front door knob. We reported it right away and were told someone would come fix it, but no one ever showed up. That was disappointing and left us feeling a bit uneasy about security. This property could be amazing with a few updates and more attention to cleanliness and guest communication. We’ve had great stays with Vacasa before, so we’re hopeful that these issues will be addressed for future guests.

Tv wasn't working. We had to miss the wrestling match first time in 15 years. Tried to get a hold of host. No response. The bed upstairs was very uncomfortable. Can't wait to get back home and get in my own bed. Other than that, it was an overall comfortable stay. It was an adorable house.

Dads birthday

House was exactly as expected. It is an older home with older home issues. Furniture was very nice and comfortable, beds left a little bit to be desired.. the only big issue I had was when the code would not let us into the house and it took 15 minutes just to get in touch with someone( automated), I feel like I should have had a contact person on the island, not an automated answering service. Overall, we had a nice trip celebrating my dads 81st birthday, just wish it hadn’t been so cold…..would stay again if we are ever in the need of a home on Dauphin Island.. it’s a WONDERFUL place to be.

Cute house but run down

Beds so hard we slept on couches. Door to ocean view deck stuck so can't access it from living room. Pots and pans old and disgusting. House has something making a loud vibrating noise off and on. On busy street with loud traffic noise. Can see a speck of ocean between 2 houses but most of the "fantastic view" is of all the houses surrounding this one and the street it is on. If you still want to rent it here are directions to the beach since none were provided and there are no signs, so we just had to wander around until we found it: go right out of the driveway and then left on the first street (not court) that you come to. It dead ends at beach access.

The location was perfect & the A Frame wascharming. There was no hand soap at any sinks, there was only 1 partial paper towel roll and only 2 rolls / bathroom for 7 adults and little one. Kitchen could be beter stocked for those who like to cook while on vacation.

This property was the perfect size and location for our getaway. It is centrally located on the island and offers nearby beach parking passes that were a great asset. The yard was perfect for our daughter to set up her volleyball net. We loved that it was pet friendly and the balconies were a great place to relax in the mornings and evenings.

Great

Everything was great- we did ask for more laundry detergent bc they only supplied us with one pod, they said what they supply us with is what we get. So we had to go buy laundry detergent so that we were able to wash their towels as required per check out, which was no big deal

Things were not cleaned. Two skillets still had food stuck to them and one pan had crumbs on it. The sheets on the king size bed had sand or dirt on them they were filthy. Not to mention the Wi-Fi is so slow we could barely use it. I would not recommend this house and I will never book it again. Very disappointed
