A refreshing family spring break trip with all the comforts of home
This rental was literally the best vacation home I’ve rented. Beyond the fact that it was beautifully decorated, The host was so very nice and accommodating for anything we requested or any questions we had. The HUGE open concept kitchen was fully stocked with any cookware or serveware item you could think of, it was a perfect place to gather with our visiting family and friends. We had 2 kids under 4 years old and there was so much room for everyone that it felt so comfortable and spacious. Overall we were sad to leave at the end of the weekend, this home felt like such a welcome retreat. We want to stay again next year!

Great sunrise location
Close proximity to Dauphin Island beaches and attractions yet far enough away to be quiet and secluded. Freighters and fishing boats passed by day and night. Pelicans, Egrets, Cranes and Eagles visited often. This is the spot to watch the perfect sunrise. The pool is not heated, but the sun warmed it enough to use in March. Owners were very helpful and shared preferred eateries and activities that were spot on. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful Bay House
We had a wonderful stay at the Beautiful Bay House. The house was exactly as described and had everything that we needed. We loved the gas Firepit on the patio. The Sunrises and Moon rises were outstanding. It was too cold to swim in the Pool, but it would be wonderful to use in the warmer weather. I would recommend the Beautiful Bay House to anyone.

Peaceful Restorative Paradise
Amazing! First trip in a couple years due to deaths, surgeries and tornado recovery. I wanted to relax before total knee replacement next week. We were so happy here! Beautifully decorated, the kitchen is a cook’s dream. So nice to have the pool overlooking the bay. I spent a lot of time on an air mattress doing my preop exercises. Sent pictures to friends to instigate a girls getaway.. Good restaurants and grocery store nearby. Host obviously went over and above in seeing that everything you could possibly need to be comfortable was provided.

We loved the location of the rental. Very peaceful. Having a pool was a must during August heat. Fish were biting and caught about 9 crabs.

INCREDIBLE VIEW & AWESOME ACCOMMODATIONS!!!
This has been one of our favorite places to stay!!! The house is amazing! The decor is beautiful and the house is very clean and spacious! The kitchen was stocked with all the dishes and pans we needed. We cooked a good bit of the time we were there and even used the outside grill. The outside was our favorite place to be with the swimming pool and the AMAZING view!!! Paula was wonderful to work with and stayed in contact with us throughout the week. She is the perfect hostess! You cannot go wrong with this house!!! We look forward to staying here again!!!

Pretty property right off Mobile Bay
The property was in the perfect location. My husband was able to enjoy some time fishing on the property. The rest of us enjoyed being able to watch and swim in the pool. It was nice to be 15 min from a public beach! The beds were comfy, and the house was very clean. The only downfall was that the pools pump shut off and we didn’t know, we were not sure of the pool schedule so we were not sure if/when someone was going to come check it. So the last two days we didn’t get to enjoy the pool at we would have liked.

Beautiful and so relaxing!
It was exactly what we looked for and it was very clean! My kids loved the pool and we spent alot of time in it! It was in a nice area and it was very quiet and relaxing! Us adults spent every evening out on the porch by the fire table! We even sat out when it was pouring down rain! It was awesome having that room off the master for out kids because in a new place they want to be near us especially at night and so they could come straight to us if they woke up. It was a great week and we enjoyed it so much! I will definitely recommend it to my family and friends! We are wanting to vome back again and we will definitely look to see if it will be available! Thank you so much!

Family Getaway
I had a work event located in saraland and decided to make a family getaway out of the trip to the area. We found the house to be perfect for our needs. It comfortably splet our family of 5 plus my mother, so 6 of us altogether. The house is stocked really well and we had everything we needed for our stay. We even cooked a meal in the kitchen and thete was nothing lacking. The pool was awesome. Our kids enjoyed it so much. Perfect for play and for relaxing. The virw is spectacular. You can lay out by the pool and look over the bay. We had such a nice stay at Middle Bay.
