Overall 5 Stars.
We stay here for 5 nights and it was our 1st trip to the island. The house was very nice, equipped with lots of essentials for cooking or grilling. There were puzzles, games, beach toys, and even a kayak. We brought our bikes and rode them to the west side beach twice (which is 3/4 miles one way).
I loved walking to the beach behind the house. We did hang out there the first full day. The west end beach on the island was very impressive in my opinion. I love that you can walk for miles and collect shells without walking behind any houses. We did go to the Sealab, Fort Gaines, and the Bird sanctuary. We also visited all the shops on the island (note most of the close by 5). There was a storm that came through one day and we went to the Sea Lab and shopping. The house shook really back like being on a boat.
Pros:
Away from everything.
House is fully stocked.
Great communication with manager.
Cons:
Lots of stairs.
The house shakes a lot, even when it’s not stormy.
The grocery store is an hour away.
Overall we loved the house, but honestly probably won’t stay there again because of the house shaking and too far away from great restaurants and grocery store.

This was the first time we have rented a vacation home on the Bay side any where and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved it. We had our own private beach there and our dog Finn loved chasing the crabs. We caught some fish and met some really nice people on Dauphin Island. The realty staff was very friendly and the house was bright and sunny just as a beach house should be. The house was fully stocked and very clean. We had a wonderful week there.

My husband and I could not have been happier with the entire process from booking it online, to checking in and having such a pleasant and welcoming experience with Beth, to seeing the amazing property and its views! We were so stunned at how the pictures do not do it justice, and how clean everything was. On the way home my husband and I were already deciding when we were going to book our next stay at this beautiful beachfront property. Thank you so much for the wonderful vacation, it will not be forgotten!

The house is great. Bay on the backside, and gulf on the front. My friend, and I had brought our dogs. It was perfect they had so much room to run. Make sure you stop at the Walmart before coming to the island. It’s a little pricey once you get on. Otherwise had a great relaxing time.

Lots to like, but this house sorely needs a deep cleaning. From the top of the fridge (totally gross) to under the headboards (behind the head of the mattress) down to the gross/dirty carpet in the bedrooms. The cleaning fee we were charged is a bad joke. We heard that it’s very hard to get folks who are willing to work. I take exception with paying for cleaning that isn’t being done and having subpar cleanliness.
There is so much to like about this house and semi-private location (neighbor on one side, empty lots on the other side). The wrap around deck is a feature we used and enjoyed every day... even when it rains, you can hang out on the back covered deck. This bay side is quiet and peaceful. Bring extra insect repellent! And pack some Caladryl for the bites you will get.
The floor plan of the house makes a lot of sense and functions well.
Communication with the property manager needs improvement as some voice-mails or web page messages were not promptly returned. The ladies at the real estate office were a pleasure to meet and work with in person. We arrived late, like 10 p.m. on a Monday night and one of the staff was working late (I don’t think that is normal) and came outside to meet us and help us with the night pickup box. We appreciate her extra effort for us. And upon leaving, one of the staff came out to the front porch to take our keys as soon as we drove up.
Be aware that at the current time, the road is flooding after a good rain. I would not have wanted to navigate the road (after a rain) in a car like my wife’s Honda Accord (low to the ground)… I am glad we were in a pickup truck (higher off the ground).
We had such a good time even though it rained half of the time. Next time we will stay on the Gulf side so we don't feel we have to go to the public beach access points, and we will bring more good supplies/food from home.
