Five bedrooms with baths suited our extended family The house was very cLean and well maintained. ##### James F. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jan P. 1 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Our family was very impressed with the cleanliness of this rental. One of the best rentals we have experienced. We have been coming to Dauphin Island for more than 10 years. This rental is our favorite. It was nice not to have to clean as soon as we checked in. ##### Jan P. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeremiah D. 16 Oct 2018 #### good property for large family Nice house, wide beachfront, seemed well maintained. Private bathrooms for each bedroom were a huge plus. Cant see the sunset, someone built a 2-story right next to the porch in the last year. Kitchen is small and not well stocked- mishmash of cooking utensils and pots. Its evident the owners dont expect you to cook much from the sign on the wall- "I only have a kitchen because it came with the house". Had to deal with contractors replacing storm-damaged siding and removing a ceiling fan for one day of our stay, the hammering was annoying, but we simply left for the beach. Nice house, but beware- with homeaway fees, cleaning fees, maintenance fees, etc etc added by Dauphin Island Real Estate, the actual price is considerably higher than the advertised "per night" price. Second year on the island, we will be back n 2019. ##### Jeremiah D.
