Come Relax and Enjoy the outdoors at our Beautiful Bay front home

Middle Bay Hideaway is a beautiful four bedroom, two and a half bath private home that overlooks the scenic Mobile Bay. You'll enjoy incredible views from the living room, kitchen and master bedroom, but our whole families favorite area to hang out is the back porch! Enjoy your days fishing, crabbing, kayaking, boating, or just enjoying the view on the pier. You may also love spending time at the beach, swimming in your own private pool, or simply relaxing and reading a good book in the porch swing. Take in the gorgeous sunrise over the bay as you enjoy your morning coffee or relax with a glass of wine while sitting by the firepit at night. We also have a private pier for fishing and crabbing. No Boat slip. We are only 2 miles from the nearest boat launch, 15 minutes from the beaches of Dauphin Island, and 5 minutes from the nearest grocery store. We offer a gourmet kitchen for those who enjoy cooking your own meals, but we are also close to many fabulous restaurants for a wonderful meal out. You will not find better seafood anywhere else! We have WiFi available for your internet needs and TV's in every bedroom. We offer Direct TV service or log-in to your streaming channels. A few of our favorite local activities is hiking the Audubon Bird Sanctuary trails on Dauphin Island, riding bikes on the Island, touring the Dauphin Island Sea Lab, touring Fort Gaines, riding the Ferry over to Fort Morgan, Cedar Point Fishing Pier, Bellingrath Gardens and Home, and spending the day on the West End of Dauphin Island. If you love to fish, you are in for a treat. Some of the best charter fishing boats are right out of Dauphin Island. Where the largest fishing rodeo is held every July. We are only 20 minutes to the nearest Walmart and they also make deliveries directly to our home. We are 20 minutes to Mobile where we have a brand new Top Golf and Dave And Busters. Great for a girls weekend getaway, a guys fishing or golf trip, and family vacations. We are only about 45 minutes to the casinos of Biloxi, Ms. There is something for everyone to enjoy!!! Come stay with Middle Bay Hideaway and make memories you'll talk about for years! We love to share our Southern Hospitality!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms.

Overall this vacation home was perfect for our needs. We shared the home with some friends who have 2 young children just like us, so the room layout was perfect for our situation. Having the private pier was also great to have and was perfect for fishing and crabbing. The pier is sitting in rather shallow water (2-3 feet max) so we caught more catfish than anything else. Regardless, it was great for fishing. We will definitely be coming back.

The house has a great layout, especially if you have really little ones. No stairs—great for all ages. The views are AMAZING! Get your coffee ready for gorgeous sunrises! Only 20 minutes to Dauphin Island for tons more to do! We truly enjoyed our time there, and we hope to get back for warmer weather.

This house was everything it said it would be! Spacious enough to comfortably sleep 8 people and room for everyone to spread out. The pool was lovely and a staple activity when we were at the house, and the view-especially the sunrises each morning-were simply breathtaking! Close enough to everything to be convenient with several local places to grab food when we didn’t want to cook. Definitely recommend this home and will enjoy staying there again when we return to the area!

Girls Trip Getaway

The house was very inviting and was plenty big enough for our group of 8 women. We enjoyed the pool and beds were comfortable. It’s great that there is an ice maker in the kitchen and it could keep up with our group. We had a wonderful dinner cooked by Southern Traditions Catering, and the house was a great base camp for beach activities. We took the ferry one day and highly recommend that! It was all a great experience.

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.
