Private ~ East End ~ Hummingbird House

Nestled in the trees of Dauphin Island. Relax with the family at this peaceful and charming home on the East End of Dauphin Island. Perfect for families, couples, birders, and friends. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is just minutes away from the white sands of Dauphin Island, The Audubon Bird Sanctuary, Alabama Aquarium, The Mobile Bay Ferry, Fort Gains, and many locally owned restaurants, shops, and fishing charter boats.

We do allow pets with a pet fee, with a limit of 1 dog, under 50lbs. When not inside DOG MUST CRATED! You will be held responsible for any damages your dog creates.
The cottage has been newly furnished with luxury items and a fully stocked kitchen. The open floor plan allows guests to interact with each other while being in different parts of the cottage. Please do not allow your pet on the furniture or the beds.

You will be able to do a self check in with your own code generated just for your stay. There is ample parking in the driveway, however, The Town of Dauphin Island has limited the number of cars to 3. They strictly enforce this! Absolutely no loud motorcycles or vehicles. This is a very quite area filled with nesting birds and full time residents.
Please let me know if you need anything or if any issues arise.

The Hummingbird House is located in the Trees on the East End of Dauphin Island. It is nestled amongst the pines and hard wood trees. The area is very peaceful and quite. Take a calming walk around the area, bike the quaint streets of the town, or take a scenic drive through Dauphin Island.

There are also several places on the island where you can rent bikes, golf carts, or side-by-sides as well as beach chairs and umbrellas or other beach supplies.

My family and I came and stayed at the Hummingbird house and it was perfect. Jennifer had everything that we needed, utensils, board games, books and even batteries! The home was very clean, updated and so peaceful. The Wi-Fi was a bit spotty but was updated the week prior to our stay. Definitely recommend going to the grocery store before getting to the island. But this was a perfect country feel but in the cutest beach town. I would definitely stay again!

This beach home was perfect. I expected it to be really nice; however, it was even better. Jennifer was a treasure to work with. The beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Outside area was fantastic. Spent much of our time outside. Even ate several dinners on the front porch. Felt very safe at all times. Convenient. Will definitely be coming back.

Amazing host! Amazing house!
We loved our week at the Hummimgbird House! The location is amazing! It's very private and surrounded by nature. It was a very easy and quick drive to all three public beaches, as well as restaurants and shops. The island atmosphere was so relaxing and welcoming. The house had everything we needed, our teen daughters did wish for a full length mirror though. I love how everything was organized and labeled in the house! The beds and couch were so comfortable after a long day of exploring the island. Jennifer ( the host) was incerdible at communicating. It was by far our best rental experience. We also enjoyed the relaxing area below the house and the porch! Our pooch loved her first beach trip as well. If you love the beach, but also love privacy and nature ( birds, frogs, squirrels) i highly recommend this house! We hope to make the trip from the desert to this little piece of paradise again!
