The space Sweet Home Alabama Experience the Gulf of Mexico as you've never seen it before at this beachfront Dauphin Island home! Offering panoramic views of white sand and Gulf waves that stretch for miles, this beautiful home features spacious, covered porches on the upper and lower levels, 1,600 square feet of living space, and beach access mere steps away. The well-equipped kitchen offers a full suite of stainless steel appliances, and there's plenty of room for everyone at mealtime around the large dining table. If the weather is nice - and it probably is - dine alfresco on any of three picnic tables. After a day on the sand, rinse off in the outdoor shower and enjoy entertainment options at home including free cable, a DVD library, and free WiFi. More vacation necessities include central AC, a washer/dryer, and gas grill. This Gulf-front home is a haven for beach-goers, cyclists, anglers, and birders. You can take a boat out to the 132-foot Sand Island Lighthouse, which sits roughly three miles south of the Mobile Bay entrance. The fascinating marine exhibits at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab at The Estuarium are six miles east, as are the wonderfully preserved Fort Gaines and the Dauphin Island Audubon Bird Sanctuary. Cyclists will also delight in miles of paved biking paths on the island - you can even bike to the ferry and ride over to Fort Morgan for a perfect day trip.
