Fun spacious beach house with a screened-in porch in a no-flood zone-- one that offers stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico's soul-soothing waves.

Well-designed floor plan offers a homey feel to this pet-friendly vacation house with 3200 sq ft of living space.

Summary: Furnishings were adequate and clean. Porch was very nice. Location was great
Trish C. Mar 27, 2025 04:08:01 AM
Summary: We spent our spring break here with our family and two other families. This house was so accommodating, there was everything that we needed. We all loved sitting on the screened porch drinking our coffee in the morning, and watching the sunrise from the observation deck. The beach was just a short walk and it was nice that our older kids could go out to the beach and we could still see them from the porch. We would stay on the beach until we were worn out and then everyone was able to relax and watch movies and play games. We are already planning to come back next year and we are still driving home!
Suzan P. Dec 31, 2024 08:32:06 AM
Summary: Our stay was awesome thanks to the owners for sharing their wonderful property
Shanon M. Dec 18, 2024 11:10:34 AM
Summary: This is a great place to stay. We had two families of 4. Kids ages 13-20. Plenty of space for us all. Located just a few yards from the beach, so

Summary: We loved our stay at beach funk! We spent a beautiful October week there. Easy access to the beach and all the beach towels, chairs, tents and toys you need! We even used the kayak! The wagon was such a help. Our toddler and infant grandchildren used the two pack n plays at the house-so nice not to have to bring those. Lots of toys , books and games for them, too! The house is large and has everything you need. We loved the large dining table and living area. We enjoyed sunrise and sunsets every day from the screen porch. We will be back!

Summary: We had a great family trip at this home! The owner communication is excellent and she was quick to fix any issues that came up. Property is a little dated but that is reflected in the price making this a great value.
Anna A. Aug 17, 2024 01:07:25 AM
Summary: We had a great visit to Dauphin island! The house was great and well laid out to accommodate a large family with children of all ages. We only had to walk a short distance to the beach and we were surrounded in white sugar sand. Highly recommend this place to anyone interested
darell a. Jun 24, 2024 01:10:01 AM
Summary: Spacious for our family to have their own space. Kitchen was big enough for all to roam around in. Now the back porch was the high light of our stay. Nice breeze coming through screens with no bugs to bother us. The kids played under the house in the sand when they had enough beach heat. Overall a very wonderful place with all we needed
Cheryl D. Jun 20, 2024 06:27:01 AM
Summary: Our extended family spent our vacation on Dauphin Island June 8th-15th. There were eleven of us and our dog, and the house had plenty of space for us all. Some of the positives of the house included having the large screened in porch, and we also enjoyed the observation tower to look at the stars. The house is well stocked for families with toys for younger children and things to take down to the beach. The kitchen is also well stocked and the washer and dryer were great. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. Unfortunately, when we arrived at the house we found that the house was not in the best shape. First, there were two exterior doors on the screened in porch where the screens were ripped out and away/broken. An adirondack chair on the deck with fin was broken. In the upstairs bathroom the hand towel ring and toilet paper holder were hanging by a nail and extremely loose, and a cabinet for storage had one shelf that was broken. I let the owner know about the damage and she stated it was done by the previous guests in addition to the two garbage bins that were overflowing outside when we arrived. We found a pool of grease in the oven as we preheated it. Overall, the house is in need of a deep cleaning and fresh coat of paint and we felt for what we paid, it did not meet our expectations. Theresa, property owner, did respond to our concerns and offered to send the cleaner and maintainance person and also an HVAC when the A/C broke on Thursday.

Summary: The house was located on the beach with a beautiful view of the gulf. It was well stocked and offered most things we would ever need. There is a second bath located in the 1st floor master that allowed our family a 4th bath. We appreciated the children’s dishes, multiple pack and plays and toys for the younger children.
