The house was clean but not beachfront as advertised. I had ti go buy pans to cook breakfast. The ones there were so scrated and rusty i di not want to use them. The furniture on the deck was all broken and rusty. The table chairs had part of the legs rusted off and would not sit up. The loungers were craked and broken so we could not use them. Will not rent again.

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.

Break from the cold

We absolutely loved this place. We were lucky enough to get free early check in because we were traveling only 100 miles for the day. This place had french doors off bedrooms and dining with huge windows throughout. I loved the colors and decor. Loved the walkin shower. It is a bit aged but clean. The view to the ocean kept us on the deck a lot. Gorgeous.

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.

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.

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.

Dauphin Island Anniversary Trip

My husband and I had a wonderful stay on our first trip to Dauphin Island. We loved our rental house on the West End. Our back porch was on the bay side and we had great sunset views and of the dolphins swimming from our back porch. From the small front porch we could see the Gulf side between the houses and could hear the waves. This house was in a great location and we would stay here again!

Nice home & view

This home was as described. Clean and in a good location. We had a nice stay. As some others have mentioned, the house definitely shakes. We are not large people, and it was a noticeable and significant shake/sway when one of us walked through the home which was a bit unnerving.

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!
