You can tell the owners really worked hard to get the property in great shape and have worked hard on maintaining it. The backyard sitting area and outdoor kitchen was worth the stay in itself. Highly recommend

Oh to stay at the Bay...

The perfect place to sit by the dock of the Bay and waste some time :-) The family had a blast fishing from the dock, and I thoroughly enjoyed every sunrise. The area is great, and a short drive to Dauphin Island. Highly recommend!

Wonderful house on the bay

We spent 3 nights at this wonderful place. It is big house with all the amenities. The private dock was such a great experience. The hosts provided crab pots and we took full advantage of them. It is in a great location with the peace and quiet we were looking for.

Bayside calm!

The property was exactly as advertised. Clean, tidy and well stocked (even candies left out for sharing). The hostess was lovely and does a great job. If the weather had been better on our trip we would have made great use of the lovely outdoor kitchen. Just a wonderful calm place to stay.

Amazing house with an amazing view

This is one of the best houses we have ever rented. Perfect location. Communication with the propery manager was top notch. The fishing pier is set up perfectly for relaxing and it allowed us to enjoy watching our kids fish. We look forward to renting this house again in the future.

Really lovely home in a wonderful location . We really enjoyed the outdoor space with the view of the bay in a comfortable & welcoming environment. Absolutely no steps was a huge advantage for my elderly mother & uncle who were traveling with us. The kitchen is well appointed. The hosts responded to all communications quickly & professionally.

Family Vacation on the Bay

We had the best family vacation!! The house was top notch. We could not have asked for more. The sunrises from the dock were breathtaking. Ruth and Steve were wonderful and answered every question we had. We will come back again just for the house and their wonderful dock that we fished from every day

Family Visit for Mardi Gras

Our family are regular visitors to the Mobile area during Mardi Gras and this property ended up being a perfect place for us to stay! The house was clean and well supplied. The hosts were very welcoming. Our teenage children enjoyed the access to the water and the dock. They even tried their hand at fishing. We were all very comfortable and enjoyed our family time at this house. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home on the bay

We really enjoyed our family Thanksgiving at the Bay House. The owner was so sweet and checked on us to make sure we arrived safely and all was what we expected. There was plenty of room inside and out. Not only is there a gourmet kitchen inside but there is also an outdoor kitchen and plenty of seating. It has a very nice pier with a swing and rockers. The sunrises across the bay are absolutely breathtaking. On our last night, we were fortunate enough to have a full moon that lit up the whole bay.

Great Stay!

We have a group of 8 men in their early 60’s that have a group golfing outing each year. All 8 of us agree this is a world class place to stay. The outdoor entertainment area was the highlight of the trip. A great place to enjoy the view and spend time with family & friends. The house itself was very clean with plenty of room for all of us. I highly recommend The Bay House for any occasion. Thank you to the owner who communicated each day to make sure we had everything we needed. 5+ Star Review well deserved.

A 5-Star Stay at The Bay House

The Bay House has everything you need to relax indoors and outdoors. Outside we enjoyed the great fishing pier - caught a flounder! The outdoor kitchen was set up to boil the blue crabs we harvested from the pier and to grill the fresh shrimp, oysters and veggies we got from local fish markets and farm stands nearby. The outdoor sitting areas have wonderful views of the sunrise, the bay, and beautiful birds passing through as they migrate back to their northern homes during May. The house is well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Definitely worth a stay and deserves five stars!

We are so glad y'all enjoyed your stay and the fishing and crabbing were good to you. I am going to try the kickin crab lure, you suggested and see if I hook a flounder.
