Comfy cottage

The Cottage in the Village was a very comfy and clean stay. The location was great for any place you go to, the beach, dinner or shops. The process of checking in and out was simple and great communication with the owner. I would recommend this property to anyone staying on the island.

Perfect for Family of 4!

Perfectly updated little house for our family of 4! We honestly didn’t spend much time at the house with how beautiful the island is, but the time spent at the house couldn’t have been better. Comfy beds, huge TV’s, nice couches! Also centrally located so easy access to anything you want to do!

Great Anniversary Get Away

It was great, very clean and organized. Had all the essentials for an enjoyable stay. Bed was a little soft for my liking but thats just personal preference. We're actually locals and just wanted to spend our 35th anniversary on the island. Glad we did, we had a great couple of days. Hope to do it again.

Excellent mini vacation cottage

Wonderful cottage. Very comfortable with all your vacation needs. We enjoyed the location and the cleanliness of the cottage and being able to have our dog with us. We loved the location with short ride to public beaches. The porches were perfect quiet spots for morning coffee and afternoon reading. King bed is a bit too soft for us but still rested well. Communication could have been a bit faster but always professional and answered all our questions. We will stay here again!

Great Get-away!

Our family of 5 plus our dog stayed comfortably at this cottage for 5 nights in March for spring break. We enjoyed walking to the popular breakfast place, tried all 3 public beaches, the aquarium and lots of hiking through bird sanctuaries. We used the main walking path in town for morning runs. The cottage was very clean with a well-equipped kitchen. We very much enjoyed our stay. Thanks!

A cozy retreat

The house was wonderfully cozy for the two of us. We spent most of our daylight hours outdoors and the house was a pleasant spot to end the day! Dauphin Island is a great bird watching location and the house is located within a very short walk to a premier birding hotspot. Many other birding hotspots were a short drive from the house. Everything on the island seemed to work well; ferry, parking and pleasant locals! Shopping is limited and groceries should be purchased before driving onto the island.

Perfect quiet little getaway

We were getting some work done on our kitchen so we needed to get away with our kids and dogs. With it also being spring break, we chose Dauphin Island to avoid the college riffraff. We absolutely loved it! This little house was PERFECT for our needs. It was close to everything. The comfortable sofas and large tvs were perfect for when we needed to rest with our little after all the fun. The only things I will note which in no way are a reflection of the property itself is that the cleaning person was literally pulling out the driveway at 3pm when we arrived to check in. We drove around the block and when we got back, the floors were still wet from just being mopped. Also, the tub drain was completely clogged and barely drained. My husband took care of that. Overall I would still recommend this place. It fit my husband and I, our two little girls, and our two old labs perfectly!

Clean, pet-friendly, VERY comfortable mattress. There's a little walking nature trail around the corner, very quiet and calm street. Short drive to the beach or anything that I needed. It was a very cute home to stay in.

We had a rocky start with our entry code not working and the WiFi was disconnected (not fault of the hosts), but, the hosts responded quick and gave us the proper help and assistance needed to have a smooth stay. This is our second year staying at one of their properties and we never have a bad experience!

Great place

Our family of four loved our stay. It was a very nice, somewhat secluded area. My boys loved that they could both sleep on the top bunk, since there were two bunk beds. We were very close to everything we wanted to see on the island: the aquarium, the bird sanctuary, and the beach. The bed was comfortable. We did have a small issue with bugs, but the host was very quick to communicate with us. I was glad that I read the reviews ahead of time, so we knew to stock up on groceries before coming onto the island. We had all our meals here, and we even used the grill. Check in and out was smooth. We would definitely stay here again!
