My sisters and I enjoyed our stay! Short walk to the beach and a very peaceful location. The only complaint that I have is that the 4 nights that we stayed was not long enough! We will have to come back when we can stay longer and enjoy your place even more! Thanks for everything. :o)

We stayed here on our first trip to Dauphin Island. The house was in a great location - a short drive to restaurants and a very short walk to the beach. The owners responded quickly to e-mails. We are very happy with our choice to stay here, and we would recommend it to others!
Owner response:Thank you for taking the time to let everyone know how much you enjoyed your stay. We are proud that we have many return visitors that enjoy the location of the house and the proximity to the beach.
Recommended for:Pet owners, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

We rented in June of 2009 and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed and then some. We liked the location because we enjoyed walking around the neighborhood, and it's also very near the beach. We liked that there are two full bathrooms with bathtub/shower combination. There's also hot and cold running water underneath the house which is great for rinsing off sandy feet or treasures found on the beach. We hope to have the chance to stay there again soon.

Thank you for taking the time to look at our Dauphin Island House, Sunsets and Beach Breezes. We have rented our home since purchasing in 2001 and have just activated this guestbook. We would appreciate any comments from our former guests.
