About this property

Townhomes Near the Bay - #2

Summary:
Southern Oaks Townhomes is located in the quaint town of Grand Bay, AL. At this newly renovated vacation rental, you’re only 30 minutes away from the white sandy beaches of Dauphin Island, 25 minutes south of the city of Mobile and 40 minutes east of Biloxi, MS. (If you have time, take a day trip to New Orleans, which is only an hour and 45 minutes away!).

We hope you enjoy your stay at Southern Oaks Townhomes and are able to get out and explore the beautiful Gulf Coast during your visit!

The Space:
In 2018, this 8-unit building underwent a complete renovation where it was stripped down to its bones and redesigned with modern finishes and decor. Each townhome was fully refinished with new stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a fully stocked kitchen. Two bright and airy bedrooms and one full bathroom are located upstairs, and one half bathroom is located off the kitchen downstairs.

A small patio off the back of the townhome gives guests a nice outdoor space to grill, lounge and enjoy the spacious backyard.

Guest Access:
This unit is located on the far left end of the apartment building. Guests have access to a private patio area with a grill, outdoor table and chairs. Parking is available directly in front of the unit. There is plenty of green space to walk your leashed dog in the front of the building and in the backyard.

The Neighborhood:
Grand Bay, known as the watermelon capital of Alabama, is a small farming community centrally located to many popular Gulf Coast attractions. The town is conveniently located off of I-10, Alabama's main interstate that runs parallel to the the Gulf Coast.

Dauphin Island is a small island situated just off the the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast. Tourists and families flock to Dauphin Island year-round for the miles of beaches, the fresh Gulf Coast seafood and world-class deep sea fishing.

Mobile hosts many events throughout the year, but none compare to Mardi Gras celebrated every spring when tens of thousands join together all around the city for parades and other fun events surrounding this Southern celebration.

Downtown Mobile has many different attractions that may interest families and tourists, including the USS Alabama battleship docked in Mobile Bay, and Fort Conde, an 18th century fort built by the French during the colonial period. (Both are available to tour.) While you’re exploring downtown, be sure to take a stroll down Dauphin Street to see the old historic buildings of Mobile, many of which are now restaurants featuring the finest Gulf Coast cuisine.

Getting Around:
There is no public transportation in Grand Bay, but the townhomes are located located less than a two-minute drive to grocery stores, pharmacies and gas stations.

Other Things to Note:
Pets: No cats allowed! Dogs are allowed with a $100 fee per dog. There is a maximum of two dogs no larger than 75 pounds each. Dogs who are categorized as "dangerous" or "aggressive" according the ASPCA are not allowed.

We do not accept cats .

Noise: This is an eight-unit apartment building. This unit is located on the end of the building but you do share one wall with the neighboring unit. Therefore you could experience noise from next door.

Good place to stay if you like quiet areas. New people in and out all the time but other than that it’s a decent little spot to stay for vacation or work nearby.

Home was very clean and comfortable. We only used the kitchen to wash a few dishes, but it looked to be stocked with pretty much anything you could need. We knew there were people next to us because there were vehicles outside, but never really heard anyone. Sat outside a couple afternoons and watched Cardinals

4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
The home was not very clean. I swept the floors upon arrival and the floor was filthy but hid well by the dark floors. The rug moved in the living room and layers of dirt and food were under the rug as well. The vent cover in the bathroom flew open on top of me while using the toilet. There was stains all over the white sheets even though the smelled clean that is still not great when they are at the head of the bed. I was overall not pleased with my stay. I called the number in the book provided and never heard back so I ended up purchasing my own sheets for the stay. Also don’t point the remote up at all while on the living room or you will turn on and control the TV upstairs as they are right over one another.
