Dog-friendly house w/canal views, balcony, private washer/dryer - close to beach

Pelican Perch

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Whether you're here to spend long afternoons on the beach or just to enjoy a quiet and rejuvenating vacation with friends and family, this two-bedroom house is just what you've been hoping to find. Shrug off your cares and kick back in the spacious living room to stream a good movie or show on the flatscreen TV. You'll love taking your first cup of morning coffee out to the balcony to enjoy the lovely canal views while the world wakes up around you. After an afternoon on the beach, just a short walk away, you can come back to use the full kitchen to cook up a delightful meal for everyone to enjoy at the dining table with seating for four while the kids chatter away from the breakfast bar stools. Of course, there's nothing like an al-fresco dining experience, so be sure to take a few meals out on the balcony to enjoy the salty sea air and good conversation. The private washer and dryer will ensure everyone looks their best. The home even includes a fenced outdoor area for the family dog that joins the trip.

We have stayed in 5 or 6 different houses in dauphin over the years. This has been our favorite by far. You’re right in the middle of the island. The house has plenty of room. It was clean and the beds were nice for once. We’ll be booking this house again for sure.

Enjoyed Dauphine Island

Nice Place, clean exactly what was described on-line. Very comfortable. Had issue with the Kitchen sink being stopped up, had to plunge it. Got it unstopped but the disposal didn't work, and the guest bathtub didn't drain very quick. There were only 2 of us, but expected 5, they didn't hardly stock enough T.P., trash bags, paper towels, or laundry detergent. Minor for 2 of us...

Excellent location, house was very nice. Problem with keypad not working was addressed, but not resolved. Local Vacasa employees were awesome, not so much the customer relations. Teresa and Trent were very attentive and could not have been nicer and more helpful.

Great location

This place was just right for us. They have everything you might need. There ia a small fenced in area attached to the deck that the dogs could go down and go potty without having to put a leash on them. The beach is just down the road and too the left. Perfect walking distance. There were plenty of bath towels, paper towels, toilet paper, and trash bags for us with most left over. The refrigerator was good and cold and there is an ice maker in the freezer. Once I got the hang of the lock we were golden. There is a front and back deck. The views were great. We walked on the beach with our dogs several times.There were beach towels in one of the closets, though we didnt need them. It was clean when we got there and we even got a text saying it was ready early. There are a few games in the second bedroom closet and a few dog toys in a basket on the washer in the hall closet. Next time we will bring some of our dogs old toys to add to it. They sent us an email with what needed to be do e before we left, just load and start the dishwasher before you leave. If you have time strip the bed sheets. Turn off all the lights and lock the doors. Easy. We had a great time.

Just right for us and fur baby. Canal view from front and ocean view from back deck. Could hear ocean at night. Roomy without being too big. Dog could just walk out door to secure deck with fenced in small yard space attached. Great ac. Short walk or drive to beach. We just got through booking again for the spring.

Great location and good house for family with kids

This property is practical and well suited for families with children. It’s also pet friendly. We were just a short walk from the beach. If you are looking for luxury keep looking but this fit what we needed for a low key family vacation.

Location, location, location

Excellent experience. Property is located within a five minute stroll to the gulf beach, across the street from the northern shore, and a five minute drive from either end. House was big enough to feel relaxing but not so big that you felt lost. Very pet friendly as well. Fenced in area so we could open the door, let the dog go take care of business, and not have to worry or take her out on a leash every time. Will definitely look into this place again next time.

Pelican Perch/Dauphin Island

Location was perfect. The views and the weather was amazing when we were there. Having the personal washer and dryer was a plus. The kitchen could use some upgrades. The fridge door is rusted, and the pots/pans selection was poor, along with cooking utensils. Other than those items, we enjoyed everything else, and would likely stay there again.
