The three minute video attached says it best! "Lil" House is a four bedroom, three bath house, with spacious living area and something for everyone in your group! Its unique wrap-around porch allows for a breeze at any time of the day or night. Designed like a riverboat, each room (including the bedrooms) have doors leading out to the wrap-around porch. The house's best feature is the sunsets which are unobstructed due to its northern most point on the island. They can be observed from the upper or lower deck with lots of seating options on each. The sandy yard with a wooden boardwalk-covered seawall only feet from the porch allows for the best of both island worlds.....sand fun for the kids and sunbathers, and boat access for the swimmers and sports enthusiast. The fishing from the dock is great both day and night. The underwater nightlight is an added bonus and lends itself to great night fishing. Swimming, kayaking and paddle-boarding (all included) are extremely easy to do right in front of the house. AND its so close to the house that you can talk to your family and friends on the front porch while you swim in front of the house. Dolphins are seen often frolicking out front and dive-bombing pelicans are very entertaining to watch from one of the bed swing, two porch swings, three sofas, two arm chairs, two lounge chairs, or two rocking chairs. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and a private bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third has twin beds with one trundle. And the fourth bedroom, called the Teen Bunk Room because it is located downstairs with a separate entrance offering lots of privacy, has two sets of bunk beds with twin beds on top and full size beds on bottom. This room is not suitable for small children however, since there is no interior entrance to the bunkroom; it’s only accessible from the outside (which is covered.) The bunk room also has a TV and Wii, and its own bathroom. Also, downstairs on the lower decks are four Adirondack chairs, a sofa, two arm chairs, a TV, a bed swing, a dining table and four chairs, a bar table with four barstools, and two lounge chairs for sun bathing. A green egg grill/smoker is provided and excellent for steaks and grilled oysters. There is also a PK grill that can be rolled out to the dock. There is a commercial grade ping pong table, as well as corn hole and bocce ball. If you want to walk down to the Gulf-side beach, a wagon and beach chairs are provided. Our favorite thing to do with kids is to walk the 2 blocks to the beach at dusk with flashlights, nets, and buckets and let them chase and capture sand crabs. The best part is letting the crabs go at one time and watching the kids scramble to get out of the way! Other things we like to do on the island include exploring the deserted stretch of sand dunes, riding bikes on the 9-mile bike path, spending the day at the Isle Dauphine Public Swim Club swimming in the pool or playing pickleball/tennis/golf, renting a pontoon boat and taking it for a picnic lunch on sand island, paddling the kayaks in the nearby estuary where you can park and walk to the wine bar or the sno cone place, touring the bird sanctuary or the Aquarium of Alabama, enjoying fresh pastries at Lighthouse Bakery, or walking to Island Rainbow for a snow cone or pizza dinner. Each fun-filled day will culminate with an amazing and memorable sunset that can be watched from the front porch or dock. So whether you are a family with small children, or snowbirds looking for tranquility, or a fishing enthusiast, Lil House is for you! And the following pictures tell it all!
