It's a gem of a house, designed by renowned architect Eric Moser, with interiors by an HGTV insider. It's a classic coastal design, with high ceilings, big windows and lots of outdoor living spaces. There's a master bedroom downstairs that opens directly onto the deck and an upstairs bedroom that's washed in natural light. Outside, there's a wrap around deck with a dining table and shower. There's WiFi, of course, and a shady fenced yard so bring your pup. It's a short bike ride or even shorter drive to The East End and Main public beaches, golf course, Audubon Bird Sanctuary, and DI town center. The house comes with 3 bikes, so you can get around the island like a local. P.S. Henry's House is named for our Amazon parrot, Henry, who has been a regular on Dauphin Island for years. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car not required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycles - Golf - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 1,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![Cottage (3 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/99000000/98560000/98551200/98551116/de218413.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Creekfront Dauphin Island Cottage: Walk to Gulf!

It was peaceful and quaint! Sitting in the screened in porch area was one of our favorite things about it where we gathered and just enjoyed to outdoors. The weather was perfect to be either in the shade or out under the canopy of trees. We did not want or need anything else as everything was provided for our stay other than our meals, which we enjoyed on the island. I would recommend it here 10 out of 10 times and would stay here again. It captured a world on its own and was a lovely sanctuary away from reality for a spell. I can’t say enough positive things about Henry’s House. ##### Cody and Wendy H.

The house is located in the middle of a tree lined residential neighborhood It is quiet and convenient to beaches, stores restaurants etc, Everything in the house was great and the bikes were used to explore the island. East beach and Middle beach are a short drive or bike ride away. After staying there. Any help we need with appliances or information, the owners were quick to respond. we booked in again for next year before we even left. ##### David B.

It was clean, comfortable, and beautifully-decorated. I love the neighborhood. So peaceful. Hard to imagine ever staying in a condo when gems like this cottage are available. And same goes for the island. A real community feel here and the beach (we chose the middle public beach) was almost to ourselves. We took the ferry to gulf Shores to check it out and I cannot begin to tell you how glad I was to have chosen Dauphin Island. If you like bumper to bumper traveling, loads of people, touristy shops and mini golf, and chaos....go to Gulf Shores. If you want to feel like a local, peaceful R&R, and an adequate choice of restaurants and small shops, go to Dauphin Island. And definitely stay at Henry’s House. They had everything we needed to feel right at home. ##### noelle f.

Owner was great. Just like pictures. Well stocked with towels and kitchen utensils etc. Was a pleasure to cook there. Definitely a drive to the beach if have kiddos (mine are 5 and 7) We tried out all the beaches....loved west the best. Went ghost crabbing one night, to the aquarium and on a boat tour (Duke at the Dauphin Marina...highly recommend...pretty ride and just as kids were getting over it. they pull in the net and so many fish, shrimp, crabs, and jelly fish to play with) Swing on the porch was a fave. The weather did not like us but we made the best of it. A bit of a conservative area and monotone but we didn't have any incidents. Great house! Would definitely stay again! ##### Cori M. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy A. 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Beautiful house with a home like feel. Would definitely stay here again only thing it could use is a king size bed. Loved the screened porch for my mornings to read and relax. Great place to stay! ##### Amy A.
