SunChaser is the best of both worlds: A short walk to the Gulf of Mexico Beach and the Mississippi Sound right in front of the house! And even better….the Views are Incredible. There are no houses between you and the Mississippi Sound. A short bulkhead protects the canal, the dock and your boat! The combination of an unobstructed view and protected water for your boat and swimming is rare on the island! There is also a beach just across the canal on the Sound for your enjoyment.r>The house is 1300 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The open floor plan allows you to watch all the action from the den as well as the kitchen. There are lots of windows bringing in natural light. The master bedroom has a queen bed. The 2nd bedroom also has a queen bed and the 3rd bedroom has a bunk bed that includes a full size lower bunk, a twin upper bunk and a twin trundle bed. A new 55 TV is located in main room and can be seen from the kitchen. Another smaller TV is provided in a bedroom. A DVD player is also available.
The picnic table under the house is great for eating outside in the shade. There are 2 adult kayaks and 2 youth kayaks for exploring the canals, bays and the Mississippi Sound. The dock has a swim ladder for easy access to lounge and play in the water. An outside shower is there for you to rinse(or bathe) when you come out of the water and get home from the beach. The sandy yard with a wooden boardwalk is ideal for kids to play with their beach toys and sunbathers to soak in the sun. Other amenities include a charcoal grill, free wifi, national channels NBC, CBS, ABC and a multitude of others. Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ are also available. There is a large pantry for all your groceries.
For the FISHERMAN: There is enough waterfront to dock two boats. The canal is deep enough for even the larger boats to access. The house is only minutes from the nearest boat ramp and the Dauphin Island Marina. A quick run to the West will place you near Katrina Cut and the West uninhabited end of Dauphin Island. A quick run to the East will place you in Mobile Bay/Gulf of Mexico. There is a large, covered fish cleaning station so that you don’t bake in the sun while cleaning your catch for the day.
The 12 X 30 foot deck extends from the main room. The deck is close enough to the water so you can keep an eye on your swimmers. There is a gate on the deck stairs to ensure little ones don’t make a fast break for the steps and the water. The sunsets on Dauphin Island are amazing and the view from SunChaser is unobstructed beauty! Sit high in the queen chairs, enjoy your favorite beverage and soak in the view.
The Mississippi Sound is a wonderful place, perfect for kayaking, fishing from the dock, watching dolphins play and watching pelicans dive for fish. The Gulf-side beach is less than 3 blocks. The gulf beach near our house is only available to residents so there is always plenty of space for everyone. At night, take the kids, flashlights, nets and buckets and “hunt” for sand crabs or go “floundering” in the Sound for blue crabs and flounder right in front of your house.
Dauphin Island is packed with activities. Visit the Alabama Aquarium and observe up-close a wide variety of live sea creatures. Visit historic Fort Gaines that dates back to the early 1800's. Visit the Audubon Bird Sanctuary. Dauphin Island is part of the natural migration of hundreds of species of birds. Visit the Isle Dauphine Club swimming pool, golf course and tennis courts. Rent a pontoon boat and explore the waters for the day. Rent a golf cart for the day or for the week. The Island is golf cart friendly and you'll see them everywhere. Rent bicycles and bike the entire length of the island (7.5 miles of bike paths). Take the Mobile Ferry across the Bay and enjoy Fort Morgan on the other side. Drive your boat across the Bay and dock at Tacky’s Jacks for wonderful seafood. Eat at a multitude of great restaurants on the island. Enjoy ice cream or a snow cone at Island Rainbow. Pick up fresh seafood at Skinners Seafood Market and bring it home to cook or ask them to steam it for you. Enjoy fresh pastries from the Lighthouse Bakery. Play putt-putt with your kids. Charter a fishing boat to take in a wonderful day of fishing in the Gulf of Mexico. And once you’ve done all that… come home and enjoy the Sunset !!! We look forward to seeing you soon !!!

    Sunchaser was perfect, and Lynn was amazingly helpful. The house is beautiful, my daughter loved playing in the sand with the sand toys, and I fished off the dock every day. There was a beautiful beach a short walk from the house. We had an issue with our rental car and wound up having no car for most of our trip and Lynn found us a golf cart to rent that would be dropped off at the house. She and her husband also did everything they could to get us a ride to the airport. Overall an amazing experience and would recommend to everyone.

    SunChaser was a wonderful vacation spot for our family! Our adult children celebrated their 25th, 24th, and 23rd birthdays during our time there, and it was a great time for everyone. Fishing off the dock, kayaking, short walks to the beach, reading on the deck, playing board games at night, cooking and grilling together - there was something for everyone!The only hiccup was the A.C. went out while we were there but Lynn had a repair person there within hours to have it fixed.Dauphin Island is a very relaxing location. You won't find any chain restaurants or stores on the island which was a welcome feature for us. The locals are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend bringing home some steamed seafood from Skinner's.

    Sun chaser was fabulous! This was our first time experiencing the bay side and we were not disappointed. The sand area downstairs was great for keeping our littles entertained without having to pack up for the beach. We enjoyed kayaking, fishing, using the crab traps, crab hunting and night, and enjoying the deck. 10/10 recommend!

    This rental home was perfect for our family spring break! The only reason to leave the house was to restock the fridge. From the patio we watched dolphins swim, and otter play, and so so many birds. We successfully caught blue crab from the traps and caught fish to feed the awaiting heron. The sunsets were stunning. We had everything we needed at the house. The ample beach toys and kayaks brought hours of entertainment and that little beach was my absolute favorite. I would recommend this rental for anyone who wants to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing vacation. The owners were very responsive and kind. I can’t wait to come back!

    We had such a great time on Dauphin Island! Plenty to do for kids and adults alike, and also the perfect place to just “do nothing” but go to the beach just a short walk (or golf cart ride if you rent one!) away. The house is in a great spot - a quiet and peaceful street - and the views at sunrise and especially sunset cannot be beat. My kids loved fishing from the dock and playing in the sand during our down time. Sunchaser is incredibly clean and nice! A great spring break trip for us all - kids age 7, 9, and 12, and the adults as well! We will be back!

    We had a wonderful stay at Sunchaser. Location was great to dock a boat and catch all the bait fish you need. We used the kayaks to go back and forth between the house & small beach on the sound side which was perfect for the kids ages 3, 6 & 8. House was very nice and as described. Lynn was easy to communicate with and was so nice and helpful!

    Absolutely lovely! The home was perfectly situated on a quiet street with views overlooking the canal and bay. Our coffee in the morning was enjoyed on the deck each day while we watched birds flying by. The beach on the gulf side was so easy to access from the house, only a short walk. We spent our lazy afternoons under the house in the shade and cooling off by jumping in the water for a swim. The beds were comfortable, the house immaculate, the kitchen had what we needed to make meals. We loved our stay and can't wait to get back!

    This home is set right in the middle of dauphin island. You can access the beaches easily! The home has a great kitchen and living area with plenty of space. The balcony is perfect for morning coffee and evening chats. The rooms were perfect and the a/c cooled amazingly! The kayaks were a nice activity, and so were the crab traps! I would recommend this home to families. We were there on the 4th of July and walked the 3 blocks to the beach to watch the show! Also, I should mention Lynn is a wonderful host and communicator, and made sure we were taken care of!
