The property was great, and the view off the back porch was fantastic. The owner was accessible, friendly, and helpful. There was plenty of room, and the cargo lift from the carport to the second floor was absolutely glorious! The neighborhood was quiet, friendly, and gated, and access to the house golf cart was super helpful. The only "problem" was that we had to walk down the road about 5 houses to access the boardwalk to the beach. This is done for protection of the dunes, and personally I'm thankful that the island is environmentally conscious - I didn't mind the walk. It might be a detriment if you have multiple small children and lots of beach equipment. The beach itself was average. We would rent this house again!

There was one small issue that arose during the stay, but John was readily available and had it taken care of immediately. The house was great for our group of 7. The AC was cold on all 3 floors. TV's in every room (if you need that). There are 2 65qt coolers available outside of the house for storing extra items. The only issue we encountered, was the ice maker on the main floor doesn't make much ice. We bought ice from the local store (20# for $5) and kept a cooler full, problem solved. The golf cart was great to get everyone to the boardwalk. The beach area is huge and well maintained. The pool area is very nice and well maintained. There are plenty of chairs and umbrellas at the house. Overall, would book again without hesitation.

The home was the best furnished home we have rented. Everything you could possibly need. John is very generous with furnishings and stock. We had control of the thermostats. When we arrived they were set on 72 so it was wonderful to come into a cool house. John was very responsive and we appreciate his help during our stay.

This house was fantastic, the “dumb waiter” is a feature every house should have that is on stilts. We had a couple of hiccups, however, John and his wife always picked up the phone and went out of there way to get it handled promptly. The boardwalk is easily accessed with the golf cart and the pool was a nice edition.

This is our 4th house on Dauphin Island in the Desoto Landing neighborhood & it was great. We return each year because we love how quiet the island is and the beach & pool in the neighborhood are not crowded at all. The house was clean had all we needed for our group of 10. There were many things (chairs, boogie boards, beach toys, etc) to use at the beach. Communication with the owner was great! We noticed one small thing when we first arrived and he had it taken care of immediately. Would stay here again!

We loved our stay at this property and would gladly stay there again. I wish we were still there! In particular, we loved the location and gated community, the deck overlooking the Gulf, the golf cart, cargo lift, jetted tub, and the tennis court. The place was clean, and the beds were comfortable. Communication with the host was excellent. With just a few minor, cosmetic renovations here and there, the place would be a perfect 10/10.

This is the first time we rented a house instead of a condo! It was wonderful!! Super clean… had many things on hand for us!! Great view of the beach and the golf cart was a plus! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! Thank you so much!!

Overall a great place! Would stay there again!
Communication with John was great. We had a small issue with the AC on the main floor but he sent someone out to get it taken care of quickly. The house was great overall with just a couple “weird” things. There weren’t dressers or closets to put clothes away and there wasn’t a toaster (that we could find) in the kitchen. The kitchen had everything else you could need. The golf cart was a great feature and made the trip to the boardwalk easier. There was an umbrella for the beach as well as beach chairs. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms were roomy. We were overall super pleased with our stay (we had a group of 9 including 3 kids) and would definitely rent the house again!

Enjoyed the stay!
This is a very nice house! Plenty of room to accommodate our group. Location was not bad for us but it does not have access to the beach. Short walk to the public access. Only complaint is that there is very little or no storage for clothing in the bedrooms. We had to keep everything in our suitcases. There was room in the closet to hang things if needed but drawer storage was little or none depending on the bedroom.

Everything was great
We stayed at this property due to evaucting from Ida and it was the perfect house for our family. Very spacious and a great location. The owner was very responsive and helpful. The golf cart was a great bonus!

Everyone had a wonderful time
The place was excellent. Just as advertised. We were right on the beach and you could actually sit on the deck and listen to the ocean. The beach was never crowded and the people were so nice. We had plenty of everything that we needed and everybody didn't want to leave even the kids. We would recommend to anyone and it will be first on my list when we come back to this area. A great get away......

Beautiful view and breezy deck
We had an amazing time! The house was very nice and clean with plenty of room for the 6 of us. My parents loved sitting on the back deck. The use of the golf cart was very nice. The ocean view is great. I would definitely go back.

The house was very roomy. We used the apartment downstairs also. We had a nice front row view of the beach but weren’t allowed access directly to the water. Access was through a neighborhood boardwalk. Golf cart was provided to help haul beach gear.A couple of small issues: ice maker not working, no garbage disposal.Overall, John was super nice and we had a great time!

Fun at the beach
Had a wonderful time. The view was awesome. The kids did not want to leave. Having the golf cart and the lift made the stay that much better. Loved the location. The house had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again. Owner would answer my call on the first ring. Great!!!

Breezy Decks lives up to its name. We enjoyed many evenings on the deck, looking out over the ocean. The home was comfortable and totally sufficient for our needs. The house was stocked with ample paper towels, toilet paper, and laundry detergent for 6 people staying 9 days. The furniture was comfortable and clean. The views from inside the house were nice. The bathrooms were adequate. The kitchen table was clunky and hard to sit around around (heavy wrought iron with upholstered seats). The half bath on the second floor was very useful for those who were sleeping on the third floor at night. It was easy to keep the air cool on the second floor, but a little harder on the third floor. The golf cart was a welcomed must for getting to the beach boardwalk. Then, all our paraphernalia had to be carried out to the beach by hand (about 500 feet).A few “wants” would have made our visit even more special:1. Clarity that you cannot walk directly to the beach from the home.2. Updated/refreshed paint, wallpaper, flooring. Beach houses take a beating and need to be updated every few years.3. Comfortable outdoor furniture on the front porch (opposite the ocean view). Sunsets were beautiful but there was no place to sit on this deck except the deck itself.4. More information about what is available at the home (outdoor fans, beach chairs, beach towels, games, books, paper and cleaning staples, etc.).5. Advertise the ground floor apartment as overflow only. We didn’t need to use it and we were glad. It was not a place any of us would have wanted to stay. 6. A few other niceties that we left on a notepad for the owner. Nothing major - just would have made our stay more comfortable.

Mixed Family Vacay during COVID
We traveled from Missouri with my husband and sons, my mother, and his parents. The view and location were beautiful. The walk to the beach was doable, even for my mom who has mobility issues. In the middle of making pina coladas, the blender shorted out and began to smoke... after searching every place near the island we called John, the property manager, and he had a very nice blender to us the very next day!!! The pros far outweighed the cons on this trip. My in-laws stayed in the downstairs suite. It definitely doesn’t have as nice of finishes as the main house. It did provide them privacy which was important. There are a lot of steps!!! My mom stayed on the ground floor in the master bedroom because she could never have made it upstairs. The kitchen is small but well appointed. The living room is huge but had very little sitting space. Luckily, we aren’t bothered by taking a place on the floor to play games. Thank you John for our experience on Dauphin Island. Ps... upstairs toilet is a little loose and kitchen cabinet door doesn’t start closed.

Wonderful house, wonderful beach
The house is spacious with great amenities. The beach is far less crowded than most, so it was excellent during these strange times of 2020. The owners were responsive when we had a minor issue. This is a great property!

Quiet gated community was perfect!
The location on the beach was great, The owners were very helpful and responded to our questions and needs quickly. The neighborhood was quiet and family friendly, and we loved having the golf cart. We had beach chairs available for us to use as well. The big lifesaver was the freight elevator!

This was a great house in a wonderful location!
We had a wonderful stay with our family of 5 and our dog. The view was beautiful and the beach area was very quiet. We did learn the hard way that the golf cart can’t leave the immediate neighborhood, and we didn’t realize that the bottom bedroom area didn’t have an entrance from inside the house.

Great Property, very clean and well stocked. The house had everything we could of wanted or needed for the beach. The property owner was easy to contact with great communication and was very friendly. The house was very spacious and kitchen was well stocked. You can see the ocean from the balcony and a short walk to the beach.

Excellent property. Excellent neighborhood.
This property was everything we needed it to be. Check in was easy. The house was plenty big enough for the 7 of us to spread out. Beds were comfortable. All amenities that one might need and a super responsive host. The view of the gulf from the deck is amazing. I enjoyed sitting out there at night, looking at SO MANY stars, and enjoying the sound of the ocean. The golf cart was so nice to have at our disposal for hauling beach gear to the access. Would def choose again on my next visit to DI.

Awesome Experience!
This lovely beach house was perfect for our recent vacation to Dauphin Island! The view from the back porch was so relaxing and the proximity to the beach was a short walk! It was made even shorter by the use of the electric golf cart! The spacious home allowed each of us have some alone time and then to gather together again for delicious meals cooked on the Big Green Egg Grill! The private gated neighborhood was very safe and secure and the neighbors were friendly as well. The best surprise of the home is the freight elevator!! It made packing and unpacking the car as well as unloading the groceries a breeze and saved countless trips with heavy luggage!!!

Good fit and layout for our family. Good location. Nice shady decks.
We liked the gated community, beach was great and the House accommodated our family very well. For a family that really cooks, the kitchen was a little small. We could not get all of us around the dining table comfortably. I just think if it sleeps ten you should be able to seat ten. Living room needs more seating as well. Overall it was a good experience

Nothing but the best

Great place to stay!
We were on the island for a family reunion and the "big house" became the gathering place for our 23 member clan (10 stayed here; the others were at three condos next door). The place has bikes, kayaks, a green egg grill; shell nets, plenty of deck chairs, a basics-equipped kitchen and a golf cart. John was responsive to all our inquiries and requests (we're a read-at-night family; I requested night table lamps and they were there that afternoon!). The beach is right in front and the kids were in the water all day.
We voted unanimously to come back in 2020.

Extended family getaway
The house is amazingly well equipped, and it was very clean when we arrived. We were eight, including my wife and three kids, my parents, and my mother-in-law, and we had room to spare. The entire trip was absolutely perfect. Mr. Reeves was courteous and helpful at all times, and my damage deposit refund was prompt. I travel a good deal for my business, and I am accustomed to being let down by hotels that looked a lot better online than in real life.
The opposite was the case with this house. I was pleasantly surprised to find the house and the gated community well beyond our expecations. We will definitely be back, hopefully soon. Thank you for a great vacation.
