About this house rental
Replenish your soul...reclaim your senses...take off your shoes...stroll to the beach...watch the soft pink sunrise over the white dunes...dance with the dragonflies...feel the never-ending sea breeze...take a bike ride...enjoy the Magic that is Dragonfly Cottage…Brand new construction. Short walk to the New beach Access and our Private Beach Access.
Dragonfly is NOT your typical beach rental house. Designed for the discriminating guest, ,NOT FOR PARTYING but for relaxation, serenity, rejuvenation. and romance.
Located in the award winning and magazine featured Village of Tannin in Orange Beach, our newly constructed architectural cottage strikes the perfect balance of old world charm and modern convenience, with a decidedly French accent reminiscent of Provence.
Overlooking the Gulf of Mexico and our own private Lake, she is a rare combination of privacy and central location. The Gulf State Park is outside our door with 13 miles of bike trails, zip lines, Lake Shelby for swimming and kayaking, and the longest gulf fishing pier and golf. The beach is right across the street.
Our 2 bedroom(+ plush built in hall bunk beds), 2 and half bath, home sleeps six and is filled with charming features sure to delight even the weariest of wayfarers. Walk barefoot on the cool tile floors, let the warmth of the board and batten walls envelope you and sink into the plush, Swiss style beds. Watch the panoramic sunrise over the gulf from the upper veranda while lounging on the swinging bed while sipping a latte.
Downstairs, you’ll enjoy a cozy, light filled living room and a flat screen TV with DVD. The dining room comfortably seats six with room for 2 more at the breakfast bar. The gourmet kitchen features imperial granite counters, a hooded double oven, an espresso machine and a French door refrigerator with bottom freezer.
Off the kitchen is an over sized veranda with 2 ceiling fans, a table that seats 8 as well as a bench and Adirondack chairs. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of a powder room on the main floor, discreetly hidden behind a delightful stylized sliding barn door.
Venture upstairs to the two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The first suite has a beautiful iron King bed with a luxurious Swiss style linens. In the bathroom, you’ll find an over sized step in shower with a built in bench and a rainwater shower head. The second suite boasts a delightful canopy Queen bed with luxury linens and the bathroom also has a rainwater shower head.
Both suites have wall mounted flat screen TVs and ceiling fans and open to an over sized veranda with 2 ceiling fans, rocking chairs,chaise lounges and a hanging bed with panoramic views of the gulf, the lake and state park. Also upstairs, you’ll find a washer and dryer as well as a comfortable set of built in bunk beds with memory foam toppers. Sit on the front porch swing and watch the kids at the pool.
You’ll feel a world away at Dragonfly Cottage, but you’ll only be minutes from everything Orange Beach and the gulf coast have to offer. Hike or bicycle through the 6000 acre state park adjacent to the quaint Village of Tannin, or fish in Tannin’s stocked lakes, or zipline or kayak on Lake Shelby. You’re only a short drive from over 100 restaurants and just minutes from grocery shopping.
Tannin has deeded beach access just a short 4 minute stroll away, or there is a public access on the right of the Phoenix Condos which is even closer.. And our neighborhood Olympic sized pool is just steps away from our home.
Your pleasure and safety are our number one concern. Dragonfly is protected by ADT with an emergency medical/fire/police option .
Come dance with the dragonflies and experience the magic of Dragonfly cottage!

We had the nicest, most relaxing time in this beautiful home. Fully recommend.

Our family had an amazing stay at the Dragonfly cottage. This house is decorated beautifully which gives a very homey feel. The house had literally everything you would ever need…..kitchen is fully stocked, extra blankets in all the rooms, soooo many towels including a basket of beach towels!
The private entrance to the beach is just across the street from entrance at the opposite end of the road of cottage. We had a golf cart, but would be easy enough without it. If I had to do it again, I would save the money on golf cart and just walk as you can’t ride golf cart on the main road. The pool is just a few steps away and much larger than I expected. The entrance to the state park is at the end of the road that pool is on. We had a nice walk and even fished off of the bridge. Husband caught a large bass!
Jamie is so accessible and will answer any question almost immediately. Would recommend this property to anyone! Book now you won’t be sorry!

The house was very well equipped with that you need to have a pleasant and enjoyable stay. We brought our three young boys and we had a blast.
The location of this house makes it very quiet with a very convenient walk to the pool.
We rented a golf cart and access to the beach was a breeze.

We truly enjoyed every second of our stay ❤️ I recommend this beach house to everyone. It felt like our home away from home as soon as you walked through the door. The cabin was completely spotless, smelled wonderful, the owner was responsive during our entire stay & even afterwards when I left an item behind.
5.0
We had a fantastic stay at this charming beach cottage. Located within a short walking distance to the beach, the convenience was unbeatable. However, renting a golf cart would work if necessary. The cottage itself is decorated impeccably, with a cozy and stylish ambiance. The beautiful neighborhood provided a serene and pleasant atmosphere for our family getaway. We particularly enjoyed the bonus grill outside which was perfect for evening barbecues. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing beach retreat!

Our stay was a 10/10. The house is absolutely stunning! It looks exactly as pictured- just beautiful! The host Jamie was so responsive and helpful and made our stay seamless! We enjoyed the privacy the home offered with the foliage and fenced in yard around the entire house. The upper deck with the swinging bed out back had a wonderful view and was a great way to start and end the day. The neighborhood pool was a hit with our kids and is conveniently located right by the house. The private beach access is located directly across from the neighborhood- highly recommend renting a golf cart and would 100% use Gulf Cart Coast Rental Co! With that being said, beach access is easily accessible by walking but with our two kids and all the beach gear we needed to bring we enjoyed the convenience of a gulf cart. Highly recommended staying here everything exceeded our expectations.

This beach cottage is beautiful. The inside is decorated very pretty and comfortable. The beds are super comfortable and the linens are amazing. We cooked in one night and the kitchen is stocked. All the dishes are very pretty. We loved the outdoor space. Two decks off the back that overlook the lake. Very spacious front porch! We will definitely book this cottage again. This is our 2nd stay in this beautiful neighborhood! It is very convenient to the beach and restaurants.

This was such a beautiful, cozy home. Decor was amazing with so much attention to detail! The owner also thought of so many extra things that you might need. Loved the makeup mirror and full length mirror in the master.
Location was perfect. Right across from the beach.
Very quiet neighborhood! Owner was very good about communicating as well!
I would definitely stay again!

We stayed at Dragonfly for Spring Break this year. The property was just as clean and well maintained as it was when we stayed there in 2018. The owner is very responsive - when we needed the new code for the pool she provided it quickly.

Loved the porches! Sunrise at the Dragonfly Cottage is unforgettable. The decor is just what you need to feel like you're getting away from it all, and we loved walking our dog in the quiet neighborhood and on the state park trails. Easy to cook meals here too. Would love to return!
5.0
We had a wonderful stay here. It was cozy, clean, cute, quiet, convenient, and perfect for bringing a dog with the fenced in yard and lots of places to walk your dog. I definitely recommend getting a golf cart because then it’s so easy to get to the beach (drive to private beach access across from main entrance across street and park right before you get to the sand). My only qualms with the place was that the host doesn’t provide you with a guidebook of info/recommendations like we normally have been provided with other stays. So we had to contact her to ask where the private beach access is, and a few other questions. That being said, she did call us and give us this info quickly and was super nice and helpful when we communicated. Also, there’s a hose next to the house (which we had to figure out). And I will note there was a lot of construction in the neighborhood on the weekday (currently next door) - not a bother if you’re spending the day at the beach like we were but we couldn’t have enjoyed the balcony or screen-in porch during the day. You can also hear traffic from the street when outside. And you can’t see the ocean from the balcony (I thought that was a bit misleading). And sadly, the coffee shop/donut shop was closed. But it’s very quiet inside, the view is still nice, bed was comfy, TVs are smart TVs (we didn’t know that from the listing so brought a firestick). Overall we loved our stay and our dog had the best time. We would definitely stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Dragonfly Cottage! The place was so clean inside and out! We especially loved all of the porch areas! My daughter loved the “swinging bed” upstairs so much that she slept outside most nights. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and safe! We rented a golf cart to help transport our beach items and everyone to the beach. It was a short .5 mile walk, but the kids definitely enjoyed the of the golf cart. Jamie was a wonderful hostess, always prompt responding to all my questions. We loved our time here and hope to return in the near future!

The Dragonfly Cottage was beautiful, easy and perfect for our stay! The cottage was thoroughly appointed with everything you need including enough towels and wash cloths, which was a huge bonus! The appliances are all updated and the decor is absolutely beautiful! Our host, Jaimie, was WONDERFUL and so responsive through the process! We will definitely be back!

My husband and I rented this cottage for a 4 night stay at the beach because the pictures were stunning. I am pleased to say that the pictures accurately portrayed the home. It was beautifully decorated and clean as a whistle. The air conditioning worked well in the extreme August heat topping out at 98 degrees. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to return. Thank you for such a pleasant place to relax!!

My husband and I stayed here with our 11 month old baby boy for our first vacation as a family of 3. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The owner- Jamie allowed us to check in early since we were traveling 8 hours in a car with a baby. Jamie was really willing to do whatever she could to help us have the best experience. The home is absolutely stunning and was very clean. We really enjoyed the porch swing and dining table on the back porch- we ate our breakfast here every morning. Our baby boy was thankful for the beach toys that were provided, and we took advantage of the extra beach towels as well. The beds and furniture throughout the home were very comfortable and really made it feel like home! We absolutely loved the location and the private beach was always neat. We definitely recommend renting a golf cart to drive back and forth to the beach and house. It would be quite the walk if you were trying to haul a beach wagon, cooler, toys, tent, children, etc. We are already talking about when we can plan to come back! I really can’t say enough good things about this property and the owner. I promise, the house is just as magical as it’s name!

Its hard to find the words to describe how perfect this trip was for us. The owner was absolutely amazing to work with and the house was perfect. The house had everything that you could possibly need for a vacation and plus some. It really felt like a hidden gem at the beach. I highly recommend booking this place if you plan to vist Gulf Shores for vacation. We had our 7 year old and 2 year old and it was perfect. The walk to the beach was not bad at all and it hardly was crowded. We fell absolutely in love with the area, house and the owner who went above and beyond to make sure guests really felt comfortable. We will definitely be booking this again!!

My family, fur babies and myself experienced a wonderful time at this cottage...so much so that my husband, fur babies and myself have already scheduled a return trip in October 2023. Jamie Baxley was/is a blessing to us!!!
Thank you!!!

Unlike most where owner wants to do everything in the least expensive way to get by with. None of that here! Layout is perfect-decor, details extremely tasteful & well thought-out. Enclosed picket fence, being pet friendly & more than expected, adding extra comfort. Quaint landscaped yard w/tree canopy provides shade for privacy to swing on front porch. Meals (or cocktails/coffee) at outdoor table on screen porch. Porch upstairs-great way to watch early morning sunrise on bedswing! The kitchen cookware-dishes-platters-bowls etc are REAL! & very plentiful to prep/cook! Yes there are acrylics to take o/side but nice! Location is perfect for walks & bicycles. Easy access to state park (w/miles of paved trails pedestrian friendly) w/in the subdivision being rare. From tv’s w/satellite, charcoal/lighter already there for use to dishwasher/laundry detergent. Whether owner left or previous rentals. It was shared, made available & not thrown out. You don’t mind leaving yours behind for the next, Again not normal in rental world but greatly appreciated. Beds were extremely comfortable! Upscale linens, welcoming. luxury sheets & towels w/fresh smell. Beach/pool (few houses down) a wagon-cooler-basket of nice beach towels & toys to enjoy. A short walk to beach access w/a traffic light for crossing. Button to stop vehicles actually worked instantly each time to cross! Most of all thanks & compliments to the owner who was very quick in responding to any questions before & during our stay!

My family spent a week at Dragonfly for a little recovery after our oldest's wedding...it proved to be a spectacular place for just that. The property is beautiful, well appointed with everything that you would need, with wonderful bedrooms, living space, balconies, and a perfect location. We biked and fished in the State Park. Easily walked to the beach each day. And since the property is somewhat centrally located in OB near Gulf Shores, a myriad of restaurant options were easy to access. And yes, we walked to the ice cream and donut shop more than a couple of times during the week. Most importantly, Mrs. Jamie, the property manager, is amazingly responsive and caring.
Great house, and would absolutely book again with no concerns.

We absolutely LOVE this beach house so much, that we came back for a second time! The first time was in 2020. The home is absolutely beautiful, very clean, and every detail has been thoughtfully included. The huge porches are our favorite! I cannot imagine a home with a more authentic “beach” aesthetic than this! We hope to come back again and again. The beaches here are amazing, as well!

We have taken a lot of vacations and this was one of few where the home was nicer than the photos. Location was great as well. We come to the area 2-3 times a year and are glad we chose the Dragonfly. The only thing we wish we had known about was the construction going on right across from the home. Thank you for letting us stay!

What a treat to stay at the dragonfly for the week. Loved the house, the sleeping porch, the big beautiful pool, the private beach access. Very peaceful despite a bunch of houses being built in the neighborhood. Great proximity to Orange Beach. Loved the access to bike trails in the state park.

What a wonderful place to gather your family for Christmas. The rest of the family stayed in other places but we used this house as our gathering place for fellowship and some meals. The living kitchen area is large enough to accommodate 6-8 people comfortably. The kitchen has anything you would need for entertaining guests. Thanks for the memories.

My husband and I travel every Thanksgiving with our 2 small dogs and this is by far the best house we have rented! The cleanliness was as advertised along with the upgraded linens. The location/neighborhood and fenced in yard was a game changer! We can’t wait to go back!

We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary with a stay at the Dragonfly Cottage, and it was absolutely perfect! The house is so beautiful and charming with an excellent floor plan and tasteful decor in a great location. We only used the kitchen for coffee and snacks, but found it stocked with everything that you would need for meal preparation. We stayed in the master bedroom which is stunning with quality linens and a comfly bed. The cottage has 3 different porches which are perfect for enjoying the beautiful weather. The entire yard is fenced which provided us with extra peace of mind that our little dog was safe when taking her in and out. The Tannin neighborhood was perfect for walking our dog, and actually has a little courtyard with grass a short distance from this house. Although the deeded beach access is across a 4 lane road, it was very easy to get to with a red light and cross walk. We didn't use the pool, but it looked beautiful and was very close to the house. There are several new homes being built in the neighborhood, but we did not find the construction to be an issue at all. Jamie, the host, was very helpful and responsive and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely consider this beautiful cottage again when planning a trip to Orange Beach!

Very clean & beautiful home! Great host! I think the shower & deck off of the Master were my favorite. We took our bikes & rode the trails that are accessible from Tannin Village. There’s a great view from the deck & you can see the ocean in the distance. Also the pool is really nice & just a few steps away. We would love to stay here again!

Dragonfly Cottage is a luxury property located in the Village of Tannin in Orange Beach. The home has been very tastefully decorated while keeping a relaxed feeling. The photographs in the listing are accurate & the home is very clean. My family & I stayed here for fall break & the temperature outside was perfect for enjoying the 3 porches. The walk to the beach takes about 5-7 minutes & the wagon on site is very helpful to transport beach items. To enter the beach, exit the main Tannin entrance at the red light. The private beach access & private section of beach are directly across the street. I would highly recommend this property. We look forward to returning in the future. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. It was a nice quiet relaxing getaway.
