Another great stay at the Caddy Shack

We had another amazing stay at The Caddy Shack - even though Mother Nature wanted to make sure we saw all her fireworks and winds with big storms until Sunday. As always, the house was inviting and the perfect location across the street from the beach. We loved having our teenagers and our fur babies on Dauphin Island for the end of 2024.

Wonderful family vacation

We loved our stay on Dauphin Island. It was a first time visiting and the people on the Island are so friendly. The home is located close to everything that we wanted to do. A short walk to the beach. We enjoyed walking our dogs in the neighborhood during the evenings. We would love to visit again.

Great, quiet vacation!

Such a great time at this spot. We normally go for the more popular PCB but were impressed with this place. Property was within an easy walking distance to beach and only a 3 min drive to a park to drop our kayaks in.

Clean and comfortable (and cute!)

The property is managed by the owners, who are quick to respond to questions. The house is so clean and uncluttered, with super cute beach decor. It’s a great stay with little kids. Everything worked as it should. If you forget something, the house probably has it. We really enjoyed our stay!

Awesome little beach house getaway

I brought my wife, 2 kids, and our 2 dogs down for the weekend. We specifically were looking for places that allowed dogs and figured we’d have to “settle” on a place just so they could go. Couldn’t have been further from what we found at the Caddy Shack. It was perfect. Couldn’t have been more perfect. Everything we needed was there and it was less than a 2 block walk to the beach. We all highly recommend the Caddy Shack.

Really cool place

We loved our stay. It was the perfect space for our family of 5. (2 adults, two teenagers, one dog). The little fenced-in area for the dog was a great addition. The outdoor shower is a nice touch. The walk to the beach is short. Tranquil area, great for disconnecting. We plan to come back next year! We were early getting to town but the host had it ready early and let us check in early. 5 stars all around!

The perfect place to call home for a week at the beach!

Such a welcoming environment. They have everything you need - we actually stayed here two years ago and it was so awesome we chose to stay here again. My family rented a different house through a local company and the accommodations / responsiveness of their property vs staying here made it very apparent this was the right call! They had beach chairs and umbrella ready for our beach day, our dogs loved it here, such a close walk to the beach, outside shower is helpful to rinse off. It’s the perfect place for your DI escape. Thankful to John & Caroline!

Cozy cottage on the beach

Just like grandma’s house, is how I would describe our stay in Caroline’s house. From the memorable little kid, Mickey Mouse plates that I used to have for my own children (that my own mother has in her house), right down to the softest sheets and comforters. The views were beautiful. The house was comfortable. A perfect stay for our family vacation.

Charming home close to beach

This home is full of little touches that make staying here extraordinary. From the guest book, an island guide book, downstairs out door shower, plenty of games and books for those rainy mornings, this place has something to keep you happy when you’re not on the beach!
