Summary Summary: This renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom beach house is perfect for families seeking a spacious island escape. With 30-foot vaulted ceilings, two kitchens and living areas, and cozy reading nooks, there’s plenty of room to relax. Enjoy three large patios for entertaining or soaking in the coastal breeze. Nestled on Isle Dauphine, you're close to beaches, fresh seafood, and island attractions. Experience the best of Dauphin Island at this stunning getaway! The Space: Located on the East End of Dauphin Island, this spacious island getaway—featured on HGTV’s Beachfront Bargain Hunt—sits across from Buchanan Bay, with easy access to a small park perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, and swimming. Guest Access: The entire home, including the porch and yard, is yours to enjoy! Located in one of the best spots on the island, you’ll have easy access to incredible fishing—right across the street! The Neighborhood: The 164-acre Audubon Bird Sanctuary is about a 15-minute walk (.7 miles) from the steps of Weekend Away located on Dolive Avenue. The sanctuary is a well-known destination for birdwatchers in search of one of the hundreds of species that live in and migrate through the sanctuary year-round, such as herons and pelicans. Visitors can take a walking tour though the palmetto palms where they can experience the birds in the lush native flora and fauna of the island. The Mobile Bay Ferry, which is located just around the corner from the bird sanctuary, is only 1 mile from the Weekend Away. The ferry, which departs every hour and a half during the day, transports passengers to the historic Fort Morgan located in Gulf Shores, Alabama. And just past the ferry is a popular boat launch on the island, where anglers launch their boats sunrise to sundown. The Dauphin Island Estuarium, an aquarium that is home to more than 100 different species of native Alabama marine life, and the historic Fort Gaines, where you can find guided tours of the 1821 fort that protected Mobile Bay during the Civil War, are both located within two miles of the property as well. There are three public beaches on Dauphin Island — the East End Public Beach, Bienville Beach and the West End Public Beach. The closest beach access to Weekend Away is the East End Beach, which a little more than a mile away past Fort Gaines (a 6-minute drive). With the almost dozen restaurants and snack bars on the island, there’s no shortage of local fare and fresh seafood. Almost every menu on the island serves up the freshest seafood in the South, including freshly caught snapper, grouper, oysters and crab. During the summer there are outdoor movies shown on the West End of the island, and the Dauphin Island Fishing Rodeo during July brings more than 75,000 spectators to the island for a weekend of fun and sports fishing. Even though the island is small (it’s only 14 miles long and less than 2 miles wide or less, in some areas), it offers an endless amount of activities for vacationers, including an 18-hole golf course and endless water activities. Boat, jet ski, stand-up-paddleboard and kayak rentals are available, as well as sunset cruises and beach access to most of the 17 miles of powder, white sand beaches that wrap around the island. These offerings, in addition to deep-sea fishing and diving, make this Gulf Coast sanctuary one of the top destinations for those looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the gulf. We hope you enjoy your stay at Weekend Away and enjoy exploring the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast during your visit! Getting Around: Because of the ideal location of the property on the East End, guests can take a quick drive or easily bike or walk to nearby attractions and restaurants. Although there is no public transportation, there are miles of walking and biking trails around the island that makes getting around a breeze. Other Things to Note: Pets: no cats allowed!
