Sea Dog- Pool, Crows Nest, Great View! 3 Bedrm,/3 Bath, Pet Friendly, Sleep 11

Sea Dog was remodeled in 2024 with fantastic upgrades which included new flooring, new siding, an elevated crow's nest style observation deck with an incredible over the roof height with view of the Gulf to relax and enjoy the view! Want more? You got it! Check out the extended main floor deck and a round 10-foot diameter, 28 inch deep "cocktail pool" to enjoy!
Sea Dog sleeps 11 (9 adults max) with a King in the master bedroom, a Queen and a Twin bunk in the second bedroom and a Twin Daybed that easily converts to a King in the south bedroom! The living room has a pop-up sleeper sofa (so no uncomfortable sofa bed bar) and a twin-size sleeper chair.
Welcome to Sea Dog! This fantastic pet friendly, Gulf view home is located just across from one of Dauphin Island’s last stretches of undeveloped Gulf Beachfront and has beautiful, expansive Gulf views. In addition to the panoramic gulf views from the large open deck and interior, your family will enjoy the spacious open floor plan with charming wood beam ceilings, plank flooring, granite counter tops and more. Sea Dog has three bedroom and three full baths, comfortable living area with an electric fireplace, cable TV, DVD laundry facilities including a full-size washer and dryer and a well-equipped kitchen.

The chef in your family will enjoy the well-appointed kitchen with smooth top stove, microwave, dishwasher, stainless refrigerator with ice maker, Keurig Duo coffee maker - brew an automatic drip pot of coffee or use a single serve pod for individual servings, blender and toaster. Sea Dog sleeps 11 guests (9 adults maximum). The master bedroom is equipped with a California King bed, full private bath, private north deck and cable TV. The second bedroom is equipped with a Queen-sized bed, Twin Bunk and Cable TV and shares the Jack and Jill full bath with the third bedroom.

A third full bath is located in the hallway just off the living room and kitchen area.

You can’t beat this location! Wonderful open Gulf view from Sea Dog. Just across Bienville Blvd is the Island walking and biking trail. Sea Dog also has access to the northern cove of the nearby neighborhood association beach, located behind Sea Dog to the Northeast, this inlet beach is a wonderful area to launch kayaks or paddle boards (bring your own or ask for local watersport rental information) from the shore or let your young children splash and play in calm waters. Bring your bicycles or jogging shoes to take advantage of the walking and biking trail that runs the full seven-mile length of Bienville Blvd.

Perfect Island gathering spot

We needed a dog friendly place with enough space for our little family. Last minute my parents decided to join us. Sea Dog was the very best space to accommodate all of us. The outdoor space is fantastic! Enough space for us all to have our own space and our dog had absolutely everything he needed too!

Great trip to Dauphin Island

We loved our stay at the Sea Dog!The house had everything the humans and dogs needed to have a great trip. Many places say they are dog friendly, but Sea Dog might be the best we have stayed. From the dog bowls already provided to the owners pictures of their pups to the "dog chair" in the corner... it felt like home.A couple of other features we loved... location to the beach. It was a short walk through the sand to get to the beach and put you right out to a great beach!We also appreciated the well appointed kitchen. We cooked almost every night there and had everything we needed!Thank you for a great stay in your home!

Great spot!

We loved our stay at the Sea Dog! It was so nice to walk into a property that looked like the pictures online. There was plenty of space for us and our 4 kids to sleep and not feel cramped. The hammock chair was a highlight. We used the little pool and deck a fair amount since every day was a Red Flag day. The location is great. It takes about 5 min to walk to the beach, and having the path (and ocean view!) in front of the house was great. We loved how wide open and not crowded it was. And driving around to explore the island was very easy. All in all, it was a great week in a great house!

Quiet Vacation

Dauphin Island is very quiet and peaceful. The house is well kept and comfortable. Our family of 4 and dog had plenty of space to spread out. Please note that the walk to the beach is the length of 2 city blocks, so be prepared to haul your stuff a bit. Overall a nice place to visit with friendly people.

Perfect getaway

This property is a perfect place for a stay in DI. The house is across the street from a public path up the beach. Slow and steady wins the race, so be patient as you walk through the sandy path with your gear. The house is comfortable and stocked with basics in the kitchen. I’ll be back!

Sea Dog Review

Property was very dirty upon arrival-towels not folded, dirty bedding wadded up in closets, dog and human hair everywhere (washing machine and dryer covered in dog hair), dust all over lamp shades and fan chains. Boardwalk manager did come to property and take dirty bedding/towels and wipe out master bath and vanity in guest room. We did have to go and buy our own cleaning supplies and do more cleaning ourselves. Cookware needed to be rinsed or washed before using. Bath rugs were filthy and had to be washed. Our property was the only yard not mowed around us, which seemed to lead to lots of mosquitos. Lots of lightbulbs out or not working in fans and lamps. House was definitely in need of some updating, especially master bath and guest bedroom. Keep in mind the “third bedroom” is more of a sitting room with a very hard daybed/couch (they do provide two cots). Television in second bedroom didn’t work. We love Dauphin Island and the beaches, but we will not stay at this property again.

Great beach trip!

We came down with another couple from Atlanta. We were so delighted with the large deck- we spent every morning and evening on the deck looking at the gulf. It is a short walk (less than 5 mins) to a beautiful remote beach. We had breakfast from lighthouse bakery and picked up fresh seafood from skinners. It was the perfect low key trip. We will be back!

Just okay is all I can say

The house itself was nice but not within walking distance to the beach as stated unless you enjoy a half mile hike in the sand. During check in I was told the cable company should be there to fix the cable. We ended up not having any tv during our entire stay, which wasn’t a huge issue but would have been nice to watch tv in the evening before bed. Also, as soon as we arrived at the house a repair man came to check the A/C unit in the middle bedroom which was leaking all over the carpet, making it completely saturated in one corner of the room. The realty company knew about these problems and I feel like they could have given us a different unit comparable to the one I paid for, where everything was in proper working order.
