First Visit

We throughly enjoyed our recent stay in Dauphin Island. The home was beautiful and perfect for our group. The beach-goers had an easy walk to an uncrowded beach. The fishermen enjoyed the boat dock and quick gulf access. This was our first visit to Dauphin Island and hope to visit again.

Long family weekend

The house was perfect for us.The dock was great to be used with our boat. The big open kitchen and dining was ideal for large family meals. Only downside was the beds were kind of hard. But overall great property and stay

Absolutely wonderful ❤

We have a wonderful time on the island! Even with a few hiccups in our stay Jason was great in responding to any and every question and helped in every way he could! The house is amazing and definitely helped play a huge role in our relaxing vacation! We had 13 people total 3 different families and a range of ages and everyone have the best time! When we come back we are definitely planning to stay here again!

We had a great family vacation.

Just a couple things. We had to clean the fridge, pots and pans when we arrived. The grill downstairs was gross and had cigars etc left from previous guest. The walk was a little far for the little ones so we rented a golf car for the week.

Fantastic Get Away

Perfect getaway. We had 3 families (13 people in all) and the house was a perfect layout. The boat deck was accessible for kayaking, fishing and swimming. For kid play, the down stairs and cul-de-sac made it easy for them to run crazy and bike. Easy walk/bike to the beach. The owners response time was impeccable for any questions. Thanks again, if we come back in the future, we will be staying here!

Perfect layout for family of 12

This was the perfect layout for our family. Two couples had kids and basically had a 2-bedroom suite each. I’ve read other reviews about the smaller seating area in the living room, and yes more seating would be great but we valued the separate spaces for kids SO much more. We loved the outdoor seating and spent a lot of time out there. We also enjoyed the bikes and kayaks. We had a wonderful week on the island and thoroughly enjoyed this house and would definitely stay here again.

Dauphin Island Family Weekend

The Mosley's have a beautiful home. The upgrades are gorgeous. We enjoyed everything about the home. The home is well stocked with all you need for a long vacation. TVs are in every room. It was 13 family members and we had enough room to play games and eat our seafood feast around the bar and beautiful corner table. My grandson and niece enjoyed the kayaks the most. I will recommend this home to my clients and we will be back for a visit. Thank you all for opening your home to me and my family.

Great place for family vacation!

Our family gets together yearly in the fall at the beach. The beach we typically go to wasn’t accessible for us to go to this year, so we stumbled across this property and we are glad we did! The house was absolutely beautiful and met all the needs of our family. When walking in for the first, it was spotlessly fresh and clean. The beds were very comfortable, but the pillows did leave something to be desired as they were very thin. The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of room for our storage needs. There could have been more storage room in the bunk rooms, such as a dresser, as the closets were not accessible to renters in those rooms. We took walks around the neighborhood, which was beautiful, and spent our evenings on the dock. Parking was great for the vehicles we had and the beach was an either walk, and drive if you wanted, to the beach. We enjoyed the island as a whole and look forward to coming back in the future!

Labor Day trip

We had an amazing time with our family and our best friends and their kids!! We come every year to the island and we look forward each year to this trip. The place was very nice and clean! We loved that there were bikes and kayaks for our use! We enjoyed being on the canal with easy access to the beach! Everything we needed was provided for us at the house! Very beautiful home! Thanks for letting us enjoy your house and make another year of memories with our family and friends!

Week stay

We enjoyed our stay the place was very clean and definitely had enough room for our large family of 16. The beach walk was great but a little to long for the babies, and it would have been nice to have baby gates on the top deck but the place really was great.

Great vacation!

This house worked great for our family vacation. We had 6 adults (couples) and 4 grandkids for the week. The only downfall of the property is the living room is so small you can only get a few people on the couch and everyone else had to either sit in the kitchen or go outside to visit.

Excellent Family Escape

We wanted to find a place to celebrate my moms and her sisters 70 with Beach, sun, and family. The house was the perfect size for us all to enjoy each other and have some space. The location is great for a quick walk to the beach or kayak to the ocean. The owner was very responsive to questions. It was an amazing vacation. Would definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by The Mosley's

Host profile image
We're two brothers who love the outdoors and Dauphin Island! We owned a private vacation home for 5 years by the Marina but wanted a larger home that we could share with others.

Why they chose this property

This house in the perfect family rental - we have a large family so we knew exactly how it needed to be set up - private bedrooms for up to 6 couples or couples with children and a comfortable common area for making lots of memories. Not to mention the outdoor space downstairs, where we're sure you'll spend most of your time. Dauphin Island has a unique vibe, once you cross the bridge it's all peace, tranquility and relaxation. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
