Fantastic Beach Side Cottage with affordable rates!

An incredible gulf/beach side cottage with ocean views over the turtle sanctuary dunes! Our cottage "Sea View" has everything for a great beach vacation. We sleep eight people. We are DOG Friendly for up to one dog (or sometimes two small dogs with written permission, and there are some restrictions as to size, breed, age and etc. regarding your pet). PLEASE make sure to read the pet restrictions below.

PETS:
Cannot exceed 40 pounds. No dangerous breeds. Must be over one year old. Must be current on all immunizations and on a flea control program. May be asked to provide documentation.

The cottage has three bedrooms, two baths, a large open living area, a fully equipped kitchen, a utility room with washer and dryer, a large partially covered deck, ample parking, and a grass covered yard.

Sea View Cottage is an easy walk to the sandy shore (no crossing the street).
There is a king bed, 2 queen beds (one that is the sleeper sofa), one standard bed, and a pack and play. Each of the bedrooms and the living room have flat screen televisions. There is wireless internet and Dish TV, as well as excellent cell phone reception.
The large deck is furnished with chaise lounges, two dining tables, one that seats four under a covered roof and a larger outdoor dining table with seating for six.. We also have a picnic table and a charcoal grill which adds to the outdoor space. The yard is extra large with ample room for volleyball and other yard games. We also have ample parking space.

We do have some beach chairs but cannot guarantee their condition as we have no way of knowing if they were damaged or broken during a previous guest's stay.

We do have two other properties on the island, "Seas the Day" located at Holiday Isle , which is a three bedroom, two bath and "Sea La Vie." located at the Beach Club. It is a three bedroom, three bath unit. Inquire for interest!

Spacious and Comfortable Getaway

This beautiful house is well appointed with thoughtful details that provide all the comforts of home. It's a short trek to the beach and there is a view of the gulf from the deck. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The property owner treated us like old friends. She was readily accessible by phone and promptly responded to our needs. We would definitely stay here again.

Quaint

We had such a great vacation! The owner made the booking and check in/out process a breeze. The location was as described; however, we were initially unsure how to access the beach… you have to go to the path behind the house and not down the paved road (the resident at the end of the street is not nice if you encounter her when trying to figure out beach access). Lastly, the property needs some TLC, but it is a nice, comfortable stay. We would stay here again.

Beautiful home and wonderful owner

The house is decorated lovely and is clean. The communication with Glenna, the owner was great. She is very responsive and informative and takes pride in her properties. The beach has beautiful powdery sand and you can find a pretty secluded spot on the beach. Not many restaurant options on the island so I would suggest stock up on food and plan to cook at the home, which is well stocked. Overall, we had a very laid back and relaxing time.

Relaxing!

My adult daughter and I enjoyed a peaceful, relaxing week at Sea View cottage. The home is nicely furnished and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed sitting on the deck early in the morning and in the evenings. The location is central to everything we wanted to do during our stay. The beach is an easy walk from the cottage. Corresponding with the owner was a pleasant experience. She quickly responded to any questions I had before and during our stay. I highly recommend this property!

Paradise by the beach!

Sea View Cottage- did not disappoint- it was decorated so cute and comfortable. Plenty of room- plenty of supplies (linens, dishes, grill, outdoor furniture, etc) for our family of 4- everything clean and in working order. The deck was amazing- we were there during a meteor shower- and had a perfect view!! Short easy walk to the beach. It was a wonderful week.

Great family getaway!!

The location, the property, and the owner were all amazing. We are a family of four and needed a break during COVID outbreak. The home was perfect when we arrived and spotless clean. The home was well stocked and has WiFi. I had a video conference for work one day and the network supported the call. The house had everything we needed to cook during our stay. The beds were comfortable and we all got great rest at night. We also enjoyed having coffee on the deck in the morning and eating dinner on the deck in the evening. Beautiful views of the ocean. The home is about a 4 minute walk to the white sand beach. We carried what we needed to the beach each day and had a ball building sand castles, riding waves, and searching for crabs. My first grade daughter loved our evening walks on the beach searching for crabs. The house has some games and we had a few of our own. We spent a few evenings playing games and enjoying our family time. The beach had a variety of shells on it. Some of the best shells were found on the beach going East past the condos. The owner, is the best. She helped us prepare for the trip by sending an email with details on where to eat and how to pick up groceries with curb side ordering. We had a few questions that were not addressed in the email and the owner was extremely responsive and helpful. We have stayed in vacation homes around the world and she is definitely one of the best. We look forward to coming back to Dauphin Island again.

We booked this charming home one day before arrival and we were very happy with our choice! Great location and within walking distance to the beach! The beds were great and that’s not the norm for a beach house! Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home

This was a beautiful home. Perfect for my family. Short walk to the beach that was not very crowded. Everything was there for us to cook, clean, and do laundry. We played on the beach during the day and played games, worked puzzles(that were at the house), and watched Andy Griffith on Netflix.

Wonderful cottage

Glenna's beach cottage on Dauphin Island was a marvelous meeting place for my sister and me to bring our grandchildren for a vacation. It was the perfect size. We so appreciated being able to include the family pet, too, as she is old and does not do well in kennels. The children loved the easy access to the beautiful, quiet, beach. The Marine Estuary was a wonderful place for the young ones to learn about gulf marine life. When ee arrived at the facility, we could not contain the children. They were so excited to see the tanks of fish and crabs. We all loved Bellingrath Gardens, too. But the cottage was the focal point for a family vacation that we will long remember. Thank you, Glenna, for sharing you home with us.
