Welcome to Blue Wahoo — a comfortable coastal cottage designed for relaxing, reconnecting, and enjoying everything Dauphin Island has to offer. Ideal for fishing trips, family weekends, couples, or anyone wanting island convenience without beachfront pricing. A short bike ride or quick drive puts you near beaches, restaurants, shops, and the boat launch, while the quiet neighborhood setting offers a slower pace to unwind. With generous parking and covered clearance below, Blue Wahoo also works especially well for guests bringing a boat. Blue Wahoo was personally designed and built by the owner, and its thoughtful layout has become one of the most popular small coastal cottage plans offered through Architectural Designs. Several guests have even stayed here to experience the design before building a similar home of their own. After a day on the water, at the beach, or exploring the island, relax on the deck, grill dinner, and enjoy the laid-back pace of island life. Whether you're planning a fishing trip, a beach weekend, or simply a quiet coastal escape, Blue Wahoo is set up to make island time easy, comfortable, and memorable.

    Alan's place was just as described. It is not only newly constructed, if is very well designed. Spacious kitchen and a bathroom for each bedroom. Nice deck and a quiet street. Especially appreciated the covered parking and ability to bring our dog. Although rental prices on the island are high this time of year, we were attracted to begin with by the lower than average rate. And it is always nice when the host is quick to respond to any questions or requests, which Alan did every time.

    This place was great! Perfect for our family of 8. It was close to the beach and we could see all of the sights on Dauphin Island. Highly recommend this place.

    Attractive new beach house in quiet, yet convenient area of Dauphin Island. Great decor and all the amenities provided. I'm in love with the showerhead in the master bathroom!! Great street for walking the dog. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again.

    Such a cozy place to stay while on the Island. There are restaurants that are within walking distance and we loved using the bicycles to ride to the beach. The kids had fun with the loft area. We broke in the kitchen appliances and cooked up a delicious birthday feast. Alan, the host, was the greatest! He has thought of everything and when we needed him, he was easy to get a hold of. Definitely recommend spending time at Blue Wahoo.

    The Blue Wahoo as it's referred to by the owner Mr. Duncan is a wonderful place to stay on Dauphin Island. It is a very quiet location if your looking for peace and quite away from the hustle and bustle of life. The cottage is conveniently located within walking distance of restaurant and shopping. If you need to go a bit further Mr. Duncan does supply a couple nice beach cruiser bikes, so no need to drive your vehicle. Overall I would give this cottage 10 stars and will be staying here when available during our visits to Dauphin Island.
