Dauphin Island House Rental Discount

vacation rental description

Beautiful, charming, relaxing, fun, heaven on earth, blessed.

We are glad that you have found our vacation home.  For us it has been our home for the past two and a half years, but, we are excited about others finding out what we know.  We are now making our house available for rent.  Now everyone can find out how Dauphin Island is one of the Gulf Coasts best kept secrets.  We feel like we have the best of both worlds here.  We have one of the most spectacular views from our back deck looking over one of Dauphin Islands inlets, along with a view toward Mobile Bay and entry to the Gulf of Mexico. We are only a couple of minutes from the beach, so we have you covered which ever you prefer during your stay. 

Our house has a great layout inside, if you are coming with your family or sharing your vacation with another family.  We have two bedrooms on each side of a large family room, with jack and jill baths in between.  Plenty of privacy if you are sharing a vacation with others.  The downstairs fifth bedroom is perfect for the kids. The kitchen is open to the family room giving it a warm, open feeling.

Our back deck will be the winning part of this story.  You will not want to come back inside once you relax on the deck and get lost in the view.  You will see beautiful sunsets, boats passing by, and the peacefulness of the water on a calm or breezy day while you relax on the deck. You can keep an eye on the children swimming below in the pool.  I told you, you will not want to go back in.

No matter how long you stay, you will not lack for things to do.  From our home you will be able to go swimming, fishing, kayaking and boating.  Dauphin Island is a great place to go for a long walk, ride bikes, bird watch or just lay on the beach. You can even catch the ferry that runs between Dauphin Island and Gulf Shores. 

Dauphin Island will give you what most people want from a vacation.  A chance to escape the busy and noisy life.  When you go home, you will know that you have been rested and recharged.  We hope you will love our home as much as we do. Thank you, Steve and Cathy Vickers.

EXCELLENT FAMILY VACATION!!!!!!!

Wendy (Missouri)
Review submitted: April 8, 2013   Date of arrival: March 23, 2013

WOW! We have been to Hawaii, Florida, Mexico, and on cruises and this is hands down the best vacation we have ever had. This was our first time staying in a private home and I will tell you right now we will never stay in a hotel or a resort again. This home was above any expectation that I could have ever dreamt of. The house had everything that you would need. I kept emailing them asking if there was anything that I would need and they said no just beach towels and food. I just couldn't imagine that the house would meet 12 peoples needs and it surpassed. We had 3 families me and my husband both 40, our 14 year old son, 4 year old son, and 2 year old twins boy and girl. My friends early 30's their 8 year old son and 4 year old daughter and my other friend 35 and her 14 year old son. Every single of one of us loved it!

We went to Gulf Shores and took the ferry, we went deep sea fishing one day, we went to the Sea Lab, Fort Gaines, and the beach. We took a nap everyday sat out on the wonderful deck and watched the boys kayak and fish and the sun set. We sat on the front porch in the morning and watched the sun rise. It was absolutely relaxing and beautiful I couldn't have asked for more.

If you are looking for a vacation to get away and relax this is it!!! Beautiful home and beautiful people the Vickers, so appreciate that they shared their home with us. So those of us that have the chaotic lives can take a step back, take a deep breath, and ENJOY!!!!!

Thank you both so much I could go on and on but I promise we will be back if you will have us!!!!!

God bless,

Owners response: Hi Wendy, if I had posted the review my self I couldn't have said it better. You guys were fantastic and we would love to have you back again. We have been to a lot of the places and stayed in some great beach front rentals as well, but our home is hands down the best when it comes to family entertainment and relaxing. We have been blessed to have such a place and to be able to share it with folks like you makes it that much nicer!

Thanks again!

Most relaxing vacation for two families!

Review submitted: April 3, 2013   Date of arrival: March 16, 2013

We had such a lovely stay at Island Pleasure. This was our first time to Dauphin Island, and we sure hope it won't be our last! What a beautiful property! There was plenty of room for our two families of 5 adults and 6 children. Steve and Cathy were so prompt to answer any of our questions, although they didn't leave much to be asked, they were so thorough. The water in the pool was a bit cool for the adults in March, but the children didn't seem to mind. We all enjoyed the beach and doing a little boogie boarding in the gulf. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the kitchen was well equipped with anything you could desire.

We would also recommend a visit to the SeaLab on the island. Although it is a very small aquarium, the docents were fantastic! We spent close to three hours there because they were so interesting. We did most of our cooking at the house, but did enjoy a couple of dinners out at Islanders and the fresh cinnamon rolls at the local bakery. Thanks for opening your home to us, Steve and Cathy!

Owners response: Jill, it was an honor for Cathy and I to have your family and friends spend your vacation on Dauphin Island in our house. You guys are the best! We hope if you have a chance to come back the weather will be a little warmer. It is the kind of place you can relax on the deck and watch the boats go by or stay on the go from the bikes, pool, kayaks, fishing, hot tub and golf cart. There is always something to keep you entertained,
Thanks again!

Amazing vacation!

Michele (St. Louis, MO)
Review submitted: August 1, 2012   Date of arrival: July 21, 2012

We were fortunate enough to stay for (1) week on Dauphin Island at "Island Pleasure", and it truly was a pleasure! Steve and Cathy were awesome to work with from the very beginning, and they are very kind and accomodating. Our entire family (Mom, Dad, daughter, son-in-law, two grandsons, son & fiance and daughter and fiance) fell in love with the house, the deck, the pool, the boat, the view, the sandy beaches, etc. We felt right at home and we did not want to leave! We picked up groceries at Greer's on the way onto the island, and filled in with supplies from Ship to Shore in town. We enjoyed pizza, BBQ and Po-Boys from the local restaurants.

We spent a big part of each day in the pool and sitting on the deck watching the gorgeous sunsets. The house had everything we needed and everybody had their own space. The kayaks and the boat were bonuses that we thoroughly had fun with. The fishing was great, too - lots of cat fish and a few sting rays as well.

We hope to return someday to this lovely house and to create more lasting family memories!

Owners response: Hi Terry and Michele, we were the fortunate ones that you found our house on Dauphin Island. Not one time have we had someone leave that was disappointed that we know of and you guys are no exception. I am so glad you guys caught lots of fish and enjoyed the kayaks, the pool, bike trails and the early morning jogging for your daughter. We have been so blessed to be able to share our little piece of heaven on earth with you!
Until next time
Steve and Cathy
