NEW MANAGEMENT COMPANY. Contact Elizabeth at Island Resort Management R.E..

Our "Dune House" is a 2-story, PET FRIENDLY, Creole design with two 40ft south facing 1st and 2nd story screened porches facing the dune and one 40ft covered front porch. There are 3 bedrooms with in-suite baths. 1 King and 1 Queen bedroom open onto the screened porches. Each screened porch has hammocks, swings and seating areas with ceiling fans. The porch adjacent to the kitchen has an alfresco dining area. The King bedroom features a reading nook and porch bed for outdoor sleeping.

One of our sleeping porch photos was chosen by WebShots as the Featured Photo of the Day in August 2008.

The home is designed for year round living on a rare barrier island. Directly abutting the grand mother dune the property is waterfront with a 300 yard dune and beach buffer before the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico. This designated natural section of dune and beach are part of an area the (DIPOA) Property Owners Association plans to never allow to be developed.

Just to the east and accessible over the dune or a stroll along Orleans Dr is the Isle Dauphine Golf Club, a links style 18 hole gulf-front golf course.

HURRY FOR 2010 AS DAUPHIN ISLAND IS FILLING UP FAST.
-------------- -------------------- --------------------
Not your usual Dauphin Island rental home. The location and setting is more like an Hilton Head or Edisto Island cottage. The "Dune House's" setting is more lush with maritime pine forest on the east and west. Rare flora, fauna and birds are found along the mother dune to the south. The Isle Dauphine Golf Club is less than 300 yds from the front door with restaurant, pool, tennis, golf and beach amenities.

There are no roads between the home and the beach, just virgin dune and coastal vegetation. Sleep on the screened porches and harken back to the rhythms of the old south. Harken back to when one experienced the rhythms of nature, awakening to the myriad bird calls of this slice of paradise named the "Birdiest Small Town In America". In the evening sit on the porch or top the dune with a beach blanket to watch the sunset and wait for the stars to sprinkle across the sky. A naturally relaxing and invigorating experience awaits the family.

-------------- -------------------- --------------------

Our cottage is located on the south side/Gulfside of the island, on two levels and within steps of the dune line. The decor is island eclectic with Gulf inspired colors, large flat screen TV in the living room and dvd units in each bedroom.

A charging station iPod adaptor is provided.

"Dune House" is a non-smoking, PET FRIENDLY home. You can enjoy many hours of sunbathing and playing on the beautiful sands of the Gulf of Mexico, or playing some sand volleyball while staying at our home. Come and enjoy the pristine white sand that we are famous for underneath your feet. There is a community pool located at the Isle Dauphine golf course and daily and weekly privileges are available at a reasonable rate.

Take the newly paved island long bike path to the fishing pier, West End jet ski rentals, ice cream/pizza , seafood shops and restaurants, the marina, deep sea fishing, boat rental, small plane airport, golf course, tour the historic fort or The Estuarium or just sightseeing.

-------------- -------------------- --------------------

No traffic on the beach side of this home, just sand between you and the beach. No traffic jams and no traffic lights on this quaint & unknown fishing village on the Gulf of Mexico. We also offer porch, yard and beach seating for your family plus a charcoal grill. Several delicious seafood restaurants are available along with pizza or you can always cook at home in this kitchen outfitted for the home cook by the owners who are "Food Network" producers of series such as "Good Eats" and "Feasting On Waves" with Alton Brown and "Cooking Thin".

Visit the Gulf Front Audubon bird santuary for a closeup visit with the resident alligator.
