Nice Place!

I rented this home because it has 5 bedrooms (we filled them all), had great reviews, and was in a good location. It did not disappoint. The house was clean, spacious, had nice shore access, and was close to the west public beach (about 3/4 mile). The home has been updated nicely and has all new appliances, and the beds are very comfortable. We did laundry several times and used the kitchen a lot. The kitchen has mostly everything you would need to make nice meals, and there's plenty of seating room. There's a coffee pot, griddle, and everything you would need to serve a large group. We did bring a crockpot and rice maker. We used the grill a few times. It did the job, but it's not the greatest grill you'll ever use. The porch on the back is fantastic for sitting and relaxing. The shoreline is a really nice. The water was calm on this side of the island most of the time, except when there was a north wind. The water is shallow for a long way out. We did some fishing from shore, but all we caught were stingrays. We did catch a lot of other fish at the public beach on the gulf side...must use shrimp. Sitting at the beach was very relaxing and the kids loved the sand. We all got sunburned pretty badly, so watch-out. There isn't a stocked pantry, as some places we've rented. So, you may want to bring the following: extra rolls of paper towel/napkins, garbage bags for the kitchen, coffee, seasonings for cooking, storage/freezer bags. I could write much more, but I'm out

Great getaway

We took our moms (88 and 86) and met up with a sister and brother in law. The house was perfect for our needs. Well appointed, great location and good use of space. We loved that both decks had gates for our dogs. This was our first time to Dauphin Island. We loved it. Thanks for a great stay.

Great place to stay

I almost didn’t rent this home because there were no reviews on VRBO, but I’m glad I did. The house ended up being perfect for our group of 9. It has a great location, was clean and the backyard on the bay was great on days that the Gulf side was in red flags. The bay side was calm and quiet and to be able to walk down just a bit and play in the water was so much better than going to a public beach. In the evenings walking along the bay and looking at crabs was so fun. We rented jet skis and were able to use those in the bay close to the house so we could watch everyone. I would definitely rent this home again and would recommend it for a group around our size. This was our first trip to Dauphin Island and it was great!
