    Absolutely loved Dreamcatcher!!!! The home is as described and so well put together and stocked with items to entertain as well as things you may need. Communication with our host was excellent and they shared information about area activities with us as well. We will definitely return. We loved how relaxing this location was.

    Dreamcatcher is one of the most beautiful places I have stayed.. the water view with boats going by was wonderful . My grandson especially loved this. He is 3.Everything was lovely. Dauphin island is low key and I suggest you check places to eat in advance b/c many are not open every day. West end beach at sunset is a marvel. Many amenities were included at the house like a big straw bag for beach going, a floater vest for small child , maps, soap and shampoo and many condiments. Very thoughtful.

    As soon as we walked into the Dreamcatcher, it was so clean, beautiful and charming to behold! Like we stepped into an enchanting hgtv beach show episode! We loved all the natural light and fun decor. The Dreamcatcher was the perfect location with a beautiful, expansive view of the bay. We enjoyed watching the boats go by and having our own dock. We used the crab traps and caught a few crabs which was a first time experience for us that we loved. We were able to use the beach cruisers available and rode them to the lighthouse bakery nearby for delicious smoothies and cinnamon rolls. Everything was close by- the beach, restaurants and the ferry to Gulf Shores! Heather, our host, always responded promptly to our needs and questions which made for the perfect experience for us. We highly recommend staying at the Dreamcatcher, you won’t be disappointed!!

    We could not have imagined a better experience than the Dreamcatcher! The house was immaculate and exactly as the listing described. There were so many small touches that truly made us feel like we were visiting someone’s home, not just their vacation rental house. It’s obvious they care! Heather was so easy to communicate with and graciously answered any question I sent her way. She even checked on us during a weather alert! The house was well equipped with anything we needed to enjoy our time inside, outside or while at the beach. The house had so many things that even our family staying in another rental didn’t have (and theirs were much more expensive). My husband and sons had the best time fishing on the dock and I enjoyed sunrises on the patio with coffee. The neighbors were so nice, offering restaurant recommendations and even let my sons and niece meet their dogs. The location is close to everything. If we happen to visit Dauphin Island again, we will seek out The Dreamcatcher as our first rental choice and will recommend this house to anyone looking to stay on the island. Thank you for making our stay so memorable!

    We travel quite a bit and anywhere coastal is my favorite destination. Couldn't believe that we had not been to Dauphin Island in 10 years! Still the sleepy little island I remembered. And Heather's place was the PERFECT location for my husband and I to go for a long weekend for some rest and relaxation. Long lazy days sitting on the deck watching the sunrise, drinking coffee and watching the boats go by, reading my book at the sweet little beach we found nearby, bike rides around the island to watch the sunset and then back to the deck at the end of the day! Heather was so easy to communicate with and the house is beautiful! Highly recommend!

    Enjoyed our stay! The weather was the only one that did not get the memo that we were on a weekend getaway. All in all it was still nice. Had no complaints on the house. Amazing view from the dock, to the deck, to the couch, and all the way to the kitchen. Did not get to enjoy the back deck like we wanted to but looking forward to another stay in the future with better weather hopefully. Would definitely recommend!

    We loved our stay in the Dreamcatcher on Dauphin Island. It was the most relaxing vacation that we have been on in a long time. We had a great time watching dolphins and the seabirds from the back deck and the dock. You could see the water from every room in the house (except the bathrooms haha). The living room was a nice gather place to hang out while it was raining. You could still see the water perfectly. The TV's were perfect size and great for watching football. Go Chiefs! The two bedrooms had a bathroom attached to each of them so it was perfect for us (two couples). The beds were very comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment. The whole house was very clean. We liked that there were beach chairs for our use and they came in handy for our beach days. The house is close to both East end and West end beaches. The lift worked great for getting our luggage in and out. Heather, the owner, was wonderful to work with and quickly responded to all of our questions. Our only complaint is that our vacation was over way too soon! Be sure to go to the Lighthouse Bakery for a cinnamon roll! Yum!

    We had the ultimate get-a-way experience without even leaving the house! There is so much attention to detail put into this home and its amenities; it felt like Heather & Earl thought of everything they would personally want in a vacation and made it a reality for their guests. Everything you would want or need was provided-beach chairs, umbrellas,(even beach hats!), fishing poles, kayaks, bikes, corn hole and ping pong. The view is amazing! Our family of four was comfortable and entertained the entire time. Heather is so friendly and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
