See what guests are saying

Perched on Dauphin Island’s waterfront, the retro mid‑century home earns praise for its peaceful location, waterside deck and enclosed porch with dolphin sightings, and family‑ and dog‑friendly amenities like a fenced porch, washer/dryer and garage storage. Guests find the interior clean and comfortably equipped for gatherings, while noting the house is older and could use minor updates and occasional tighter housekeeping or clearer communication.

Excellent location, very cute and comfortable.

Palmetto bugs.

Will definitely book again!

Incredible location on the bay! The fishing dock was great and just 1 mile to the closest public beach access made biking there easy.

Older home but well taken care of, clean and stocked.

Avari response:

It was great to sit on the back porch and watch the water.

My husband and I loved this location. The home has a retro vibe and the mid-century modern furnishings fit the property nicely. It was quiet and had all that we needed. This would be an excellent rental for large family gatherings as the den area was separated and created a relaxed atmosphere overlooking the water. We learned that this home was built in the 50’s and it has an authentic retro look that was very welcoming for a low key Dauphin Island weekend.
