Wonderful, as always!
We absolutely love staying in this house! It’s so perfect for our 4 and 5 year old being on the bay side. It’s also perfect with the dock so we can fish right off of it. Will be staying here again!!

We loved the quiet location of this VRBO. Very private and peaceful. If you’re looking to relax and unwind with no one bothering you, this is your place. Kids friendly and so many fun things to do on the island, even in the winter months.

Great, relaxing week
Fully & nicely stocked kitchen. The host was generous with supplies. The house was clean & comfortable. The dock needs some TLC, but we were able to fish from there. We saw dolphins and some crabs. If you’re concerned about windows without blinds, this home may not be for you. During the day it’s great seeing out the front & back. However, at night it can be a little unnerving. We loved having our coffee on the back porch! Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Spring Break Getaway
The house was way more spacious than I thought it would be and well equipped. Very clean and comfortable. The location was perfect even with little toddlers. Enjoyed the fishing off the private dock. Loved the quiet and privacy of the house and the island. We would book again if we go back to Dauphin Island.

Lovely cabin
The cabin is charming, clean and comfortable! The views of the bay were beautiful and relaxing. I loved the decor and furniture. Kitchen was well stocked with appliances and the open concept was nice. Although it is on the bay, you do have views of the gulf. Great location on this lovely island. I would definitely book again!

Very cute beach house
Stayed here for our anniversary. Wanted a quiet getaway and this home delivered! It’s decorated very cute, has games, TV with Amazon fire that we were able to watch anything we wanted, board games in the closet, full kitchen with basics, and a comfortable bed. Great for a single family or small group. We’d definitely come back!

What a week at the Chic!
My husband and I absolutely loved this house. We had plenty of room for others, but needed this time for ourselves since we were celebrating our 26th anniversary. We sat on the covered back porch with coffee, fished off the private covered pier, and walked along the bay looking for shells. We had perfect weather! This cottage is a perfect getaway. If you fish and you do not have a boat it is very shallow here. I wish it had been a little deeper but that did not prevent us from giving this place five stars. We will definitely stay there again. Oh, and no grill, but we carried our own small griddle and bought grouper and shrimp. Dockside blackened shrimp didn't disappoint either! Wonderful place and pretty private except for neighbors working the crabs but that was rather interesting in itself.

Nice House But…
The house was nice and really clean. There were several maintenance issues that need to be resolved though. If you are planning to fish from the pier, know that it has no lighting, the boat lift doesn’t work (which we needed due to the water being rough), and it is missing boards and damaged on one side. There also are no chairs, water toys, or beach items of any kind that you usually find at rental home. We did enjoy our stay but would have enjoyed it more if these items had not been an issue.

What a Great House!!
We really enjoyed our first vacation in Dauphin Island and staying at this house! It was very clean and beautifully decorated. There were ample towels and blankets to go around! All appliances worked and there were plenty of games to play in the hall closet. The porch was wonderful for after dinner ice cream, and the dock was great for many days of fishing. We caught lots of fish, mostly croaker and a very large red fish! We truly appreciate the restaurant list and the noted stars were helpful when deciding on food. The Bike Rentals on your fridge were great too! Very affordable and super friendly!! What a great time we had and look forward to our next trip to Dauphin Island!!

Beautiful and Peaceful
Really clean beach house with a fantastic view! Beautifully decorated. Lots of board games for a rainy day. The beds were not super comfy, but also not uncomfortable. The kitchen provided the basics, but there were no extras that we have typically found in other homes, such as coffee filters for the provided coffee maker, ziplocks, aluminum foil, etc. Overall a fantastic stay!

A peaceful visit
This is a lovely home in a lovely setting. It had everything we needed in the house, including a well-equipped kitchen. The view of the sound was beautiful, and there was easy access to the beach on the other side of the island. The twin room might be a bit tight for two adults staying for a week, but otherwise the house felt spacious.

Cottage rental at Dauphin Island
I am sure I rented the best place on the island. It absolutely beautiful inside. Just like the photos in the advertisement. It's on the bay side, which made it more quiet ocean wave wise. The view of the horizon and ocean was gorgeous. Neighbors were night owls, but I was able to get peaceful sleep anyway. I absolutely loved the house and my own private beach at the dock which was a short walk from the house.
