About this property

Paula's Place - A property with large lot, fully gated for family fun

Come spend time with your family or for anyone who wants to get away. Hollinger's Island is close to the Marina's, river restaurants and Mobile Yacht Club. We have had folks who come for many reasons including family get aways, fishing tournaments, business conferences, medical care in mobile, day trips to Dauphin Island / Gulf Shores.

A great place to zip to the city of Mobile 15 minutes from downtown or 25 minutes north of Dauphin Island. Paula's Place will give you the freedom to cook, have meals together, spend time in a quiet community that is a few blocks away from bay street that runs along Mobile Bay to the marina area.

You feel like you are in the country side and fee free to enjoy the property like home. Hammocks, bikes, beach chairs, kayaks on the property for your enjoyment.

Close to the coast but not in the hustle ans bustle
We stayed a long weekend at Paula’s place, Paula and her son were great through the whole process. Easy check in check out the house could use a little updating and a few changes but overall for the price and location it wasn’t bad.

Nice and quiet!
This is a great place to stay if you'd like to see Mobile and Dauphin Island. The yard is fenced in which was good for our dogs. Spacious and clean. We encountered a minor issue with a sink, the hosts were apologetic and fantastic to talk with. Will stay again.

Misleading description my first VRBO experience
The home hits you with a mold/mildew smell immediately. There are dirty fingerprints on every door and some light switches. The toaster oven was filthy. Our master bath shower curtain had mold on it. The second bathroom had some stinky smell also. The living room rug was very dirty. All the floors and corners were filthy. We did not feel comfortable cooking or eating here. We had headaches while there that went away once we were out the house for a while. Lots of things were in disrepair (cabinets, baseboards, tub walls) but I can over look those things if the place was CLEAN. You feel dirty just being there. The mold smell can not be safe. It’s overwhelming. The out door griddle was filthy. We left early. There was no way I could stay any longer. We would have left sooner but with 3 dogs we had no other option. There were dead bugs on window sills. I took multiple pictures, but you can’t photograph a smell. This place needs a deep cleaning.

The yard being fenced completely (once you shut the gate) was a bonus for us since we had our 2 dogs with us. The yard and trailer were both pleasant. The owner was quick to respond to questions. All in all a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Paula Snow

Host profile image
Spent some time in Central America before working 25 years at University of South Alabama Hosptial in Mobile, AL. Love family and animals. I found this place and fell in love with the area. I hope that you enjoy your stay in Mobile, Alabama.

Why they chose this property

This property gives the freedom to focus on your work, your family, fellowship and not worry about lodging. Fully functional kitchen, plenty of space inside and out. Large den, deck, yard, washer and dryer and more. It's a laid back environment with large, covered deck to hang out on and a large yard with a fire pit if you like to hang out by the fire. Close to the city and 1/2 hour you can be on a really nice beach watching the sunset. The only area that is restricted is owners closet and shed. Nothing exciting. Vaccuum, mop bucket, some supplies and other boring stuff in those two spaces. Everywhere else is yours.

What makes this property unique

In the late fall I have tons of oranges on the orange tree. There is another citrus tree as well and guest are welcome to partake. There is a gas griddle in the front and a charcoal grill in the back beside the fire pit. Several eating tables 1. dining room off the kitchen and 2. on the covered deck 3. on the back deck.

There are a couple of cheap kayaks on the property. My grandkids sometimes take them to the river or the beach. I advise bringing a life jacket if you think you may want to use them. There is a little trailer on the property and feel free to use it if you have a trailer hitch. It can haul bikes or kayaks or toys for the area. The connection is a
1 7/8 ball and not the common 2 inch hitch.
