Waterfront 4BR Private Dock& Boat Ramp perfect for families

Escape to our spacious Dauphin Island beach house, perfectly situated between the beach and the bay! This family-friendly retreat comfortably accommodates large groups and features a private boat ramp on a calm canal with stunning sunset views. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, arcade game, and a sandy backyard. Walk to the water or relax in your private island paradise.

Welcome to your spacious, family-friendly island retreat! The heart of the home is the open-concept living and kitchen area, perfect for gathering and entertaining.

Kitchen & Dining:

Fully equipped kitchen
Large island for cooking and seating
Bedrooms & Sleeping Arrangements:

Main Level: Two private king bedrooms, each with its own TV.

The home sits on a large corner lot that feels like a private beach with soft sand right in your backyard, leading to the canal

Perfect stay with more than enough room for three old friends getting together to relax and do a little fishing. Didn’t even have to leave the property to wet a line, kitchen was well equipped for in-depth cooking, and beds were comfortable. Not sure what else you could ask for.

This home was perfect for the gulf and for the bay. Super easy walk in either direction. House was clean and ready for us. Communication with the host was excellent. They had great suggestions and very quick responses to everything. This space accommodated 2 families with kids perfectly. Some very minor upkeep could go along way but that would not deter me from booking again or suggesting this house to others.

I brought the boat down and the idea of a boat ramp on the property was key to our booking. I realized its best to use the ramp while the water is high in the morning. The home itself was great. They had some open pit areas during our stay but I suspect that will be completed shortly as it was construction of the sea wall. very clean. large home. no real complaints at all.

I was impressed with the pictures shown on the listing, but being there has been a dream! Gorgeous space with plenty of amenities and supplies left for our use. If you bring a big group, you will not be disappointed. Just post a sign up list for shower times. Our big group had an amazing time!

Family Beach Trip

We had a great stay in Dauphin Island and this home was a perfect fit! We loved the location to town, the beach and water view. The owner was always available and quick to respond. The option to rent the golf cart was a great add on and we used it for three days. We will be back again!

Perfect family house

We have been to Destin and Gulf shores the last few years but wanted sometime with a slower pace. This island was absolutely the best. Our house was perfectly situated with the bay on one side and with the beach on the other. The owners were very helpful and responded promptly. Definitely will come back!

Place is really awesome

The place is really awesome and the Beach view on both sides of the property is very beautiful. The property owner is really very communicative. Only I suggest to the property owner is to treat the Deck woods as kids and myself got splintered in to hands and legs when they were playing outside.
