    We enjoyed our stay at this great house with a beautiful view. The property management was very responsive to our requests.

    House and location were nice until we had SWARM OF TERMITES IN KITCHEN one night. After extensive cleaning one evening they seemed to stop. We contacted the property manager who got us in touch with property owner who admitted THIS WAS KNOWN ISSUE with the property. They stated kitchen was recently remodeled to handle the situation - their advice was to turn lights off. No other solution was given. Board walk to beach has raised and loose nails - must wear shoes or you might step on a nail. I wouldn’t book this house again if it were free.

    It was our fathers 80th birthday. He was blown away by the house and the beautiful views. Everyone had a wonderful time and definitely enjoyed the beach. Thank you!

    We had 12 people staying in this property for a week and we had relatives from 3 other states staying in a separate home on the island that we had not seen since before the pandemic. We thought this house would be a great place to gather for a couple days and enjoy the beach and each other. Again, we only had 12 people staying at the house. Little did we know, the neighbors on both sides were watching us at all times and are active board members in the neighborhood HOA. They actually contacted the home owners about us having visitors. We were really bummed that the neighbors were sticklers about us having our relatives visit. We did have to cut the visit short after being told that if our relatives did not leave the premises the police would remove them for trespassing. Andy with Dauphin Island Real Estate delivered the news in person but handled a very uncomfortable situation with class. Besides the above situation, the house was perfect for our group of 12. Plenty of room, A/C kicked out some great cool air, kitchen was stocked with any utensil we needed (we didn't eat out once) kayak included along with beach chairs and lots of kid's beach toys. The ice machine was clutch! The view of the ocean is BEAUTIFUL! Easy walk out to the beach but watch out for the nails on the boardwalk because some are sticking up. Stop on your way in at Walmart to get items cheap. You can get items at the local shop called Ship and Shore which we loved, but it is expensive. Grab extra toilet paper and paper towels as well as laundry and dishwasher detergent. We really enjoyed our stay at this property!

    Cleanliness of property. The inside of this house was a palace. The outside and underneath the house need work. Porch areas and wooden boardwalk are in need of repairs. Also Backyard needs to be cleaned/picked up of debris.

    We stayed in Mid March and had a great time. Plenty of room for entire family to spread out! Home was even better than expected and well stocked with cooking extras! We loved the location and the quiet Beach! Definitely recommend!

    Wanted somewhere somewhat secluded because of covid— could not have picked a better place. Private beach and the kids had a blast fishing. A bit cold to get in water but to be expected. Kitchen was more than stocked. House was beautiful
