Hosted by Mike and Susan Lemley
Welcome to Pelican Watch!
We are Mike and Susan, your hosts. We would like to thank you for visiting our site and hope you choose Pelican Watch to be your vacation home. We are relatively new owners, and we love our house. We have four grown kids and one grand baby. Our family has always cherished our vacations at the beach and owning a beach home has been a dream of ours for years. Now that we have one, we have lots of plans for it! It is an honor for us to provide a well-appointed and relaxing vacation home where your family can make the memories that last a lifetime. We hope you enjoy the surf, sand, and sun on Dauphin Island!

Why they chose this property
Pelican Watch sits on the Mississippi Sound side of the island. The clear water of the sound is right out the back door, and it provides a quiet, private beach experience. The water laps on the shore and the sand slopes gently out into the water. It's perfect for families with littles!
For those who enjoy boating or fishing, the shallow water allows for boats to be anchored right offshore. If your family enjoys kayaking or paddle boarding, this is the place for you. It's also the perfect location for quiet sunset walks.
If your family enjoys the waves of the Gulf of America, it's an easy four-minute walk to the Sehoy Street beach access. Load up the cart or carry your chairs to the sugar white sands. To go to the West End public beach, it's only a 1.5-mile drive, perfect for biking or golf cart rentals!

What makes this property unique
Pelican Watch is not just a vacation rental house; it's our vacation home. When you walk in the door, you are made to feel like a part of our family visiting the family beach house. We provide lots of towels, beach towels, pet sheets and towels, beach chairs, and a beach cart. The views of the Mississippi Sound are beautiful. We love to sit and watch the sail boats, fishing boats, and occasional barge. A sharp eye can sometimes spot a dolphin or two. In the evening, we enjoy watching the sun set and, as the darkness falls, see the twinkling lights across the sound. Pelican Watch has a way of making all our guests feel relaxed and refreshed.
