Great place for families with young kids to stay.
This was a perfect location for our family getaway. Kids loved the beach. The house provided shade for younger kids and adults while watching the kids on the beach. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. The location was everything we needed. This was a great house but there were a few things that I would want to know as a property owner. First, the banister on the front of the deck really needs to be replaced. We wouldn't let our kids out on the deck for fear they might climb on it. Next, there were no cleaning supplies, or dish towels to use while cleaning. We cooked each meal there and having tea towels etc. would have been very helpful with kids. One of the kids spilled a can of juice and all we had was paper towels to use to clean with. I ended up having to use wash clothes and dish soap on my hands and knees to get up most of the spill. Then found the mop outside and finished up with that. We did take our own paper towels in and used those as well. Finally, one of the bunk beds was nearly broken and not very comfortable. All of that isn't meant to run down this great house, just things that might be helpful when families are so far away from home and stores. We loved Dauphin Island and the lack of commercialism there. Just other families on the beach each day and a very relaxed atmosphere!
