We had a wonderful time at Pawprints in the Sand! We did not want for anything. The house was fully equipped, more beautiful than the pictures, very clean and welcoming. We had plenty of towels and lots of kitchen equipment for all our meals. The extra ice maker was a nice touch. The pool was perfect and heated since we were there in October! Cannot beat the view! Just wonderful!

We loved our first stay at Dauphin Island. It was so laid back and welcoming. We enjoyed our pool at “Pawprints in the Sand”. The home was equipped with all amenities, and was a short drive to restaurants and gift shops in the area. The sunrises🌅/sunsets 🌄 were amazing!

This house on the bay was amazing(directly across from the ocean with easy access and 10 houses away from public beach in addition). Tons of kitchen tools including a coffee pot that is combo Kerug and traditional coffee pot). We loved the large deck and pool.

We had the best vacation at this house. It was dog friendly and we took both of our dogs. Very private place. It had everything we needed such as fans and a huge ice machine. The pool was perfect for the kids. This was our first trip to Dauphin island and we will definitely be going back. ❤️🐾🏖️

Loved the layout and especially the pool! We were there for a family reunion and this was one of three houses our family rented. I think ours was the nicest. I am just glad we brought spices with us, although we didn't realize we needed salt & pepper too. The beds were all comfy. The open space made it easy for our group. The table was big enough to spread out all of the 2,000 piece jigsaw puzzle my daughter brought with her. I hope it is available the next time we come to Dauphin Island.
