You can tour a Civil War fort, take a ferry ride across the bay, see the live displays at the Sea Lab Estuarium, go fishing - shore, pier or deep sea - take a boat ride, rent a kayak, ride your bike, sample local restaurants and shopping, or spot the wildlife at the world famous Audubon nature preserve which borders the eastern edge of Audubon Place. Everything is close at hand.

Each of the mirror-image, side-by-side units has two baths and three spacious bedrooms - one king, two queens, two twins and a pull-out sofabed in the living room. The master bedroom bath has a jetted tub and separate shower. Kitchens include all necessities: dishes, cookware, serving ware, utensils, glassware, and appliances: refrigerator, range, microwave, disposal, dishwasher, washer and dryer. There are gas grills and a picnic table underneath the house. (Note: charcoal grills are not allowed anywhere on the property.)

Bring your beach towels, suntan lotion and sandals and leave the stress behind as you recharge your batteries on glorious Dauphin Island, the island that time forgot.

                      Owner info

                      Year Purchased: 2005

                      About the owner: We are a mature (i.e., old) couple and we've loved the Gulf of Mexico for over 25 years, vacationing with our kids all along the west coast of Florida. We first discovered Dauphin Island in 2004 when we ventured west and did some exploring around Mobile Bay. The island captivated us from the first time we crossed the bridge and we bought our beach duplex a year later. We hope the island will enchant you, too, that you will enjoy your stay here and want to return..

                      Why the Owner Chose Dauphin Island:
                      We fell in love with this little piece of paradise the first time we crossed that causeway. We are always impressed and thankful for the relaxed and friendly folks who llive in and visit Dauphin Island, the laid back feel of the place, and island life in general. The Estuarium, the Fort, the ferry, the fishing, the bird sanctuary, the miles of beach and the view of Gulf water everywhere - what else could beach folks want?

                      The Unique Benefits at this House:
                      Relaxation! Relaxation! Relaxation! Oh - did we mention relaxation?
