Quaint, cute beach house

Nice size house for our family of 5, and a great, easy walk to the beach.The only thing I might suggest, is to have window treatments for the windows in the bedrooms upstairs.

Winter getaway

Great rental, walking distance to beach. Kitchen was well stocked. The only negative is charcoal grill on deck probably should be replaced. Looking forward to next year!

a great family vacation with the dogs included

We loved the location, could see the water from front deck. very clean and stocked with everything we needed. a short walk to the beach and enjoyed going on walks with our dogs in neighborhood. Daughter loved the hammock below house. I would have liked to have had thicker curtains in master bedroom since I could see all headlights at night while sleeping. Front door did not lock. Bolt did not catch even in trying code throughout week. That may need to be addressed for future tenants. we felt safe either way. Loved our frist trip to Dauphin Island and we will return again.

Easy living for the 4th

We enjoyed our stay. Easy walk to the beach. Enjoyed the outside shower and had water sources at front/back doors. We spent many evening on back deck with dinner. It was a nice treat. Only things lacking is better AC upstairs. You really needed a window unit in both upstairs bedrooms. We weren't able to enjoy the upstairs until after dark. The kitchen was lacking a few things but we managed fine. Lastly, The grass was definitely in need of a mow and both doors had issues locking. One time took 5 minutes to get the automatic lock to properly lock.

Comfortable with deco access to beach

House was very comfortable, not fussy, with the necessary essentials. Walk to the beach would require going out the front and around the block, but we noticed a more direct cut through at the back of the house. Not sure if the back yard neighbors would complain when using it. We chose to drive to the nearby public access beach so we didn’t have to drag everything. Nice bedrooms and the house lives larger than it looks. Double sink in the kitchen would be more appropriate and stove and dishwasher doors block each other. Very small master bathroom. Thought the property was a good value considering inflated pricing nationwide. Plus’ outweigh the minus’ and I would not hesitate renting it again.

Weekend getaway

Overall experience was good The house is very cute. From the outside it looked like it was going to be small but with everyone in The house it did not feel crowded The walk to the beach was not bad even with very small kids The beds were not the most comfortable but also not the worst I have ever had everyone slept good . The beach that was in walking distance was not overly crowded. And the restaurants near by were good Ve had a very good time on our vacation
