About this property

the DREAMCATCHER at Indian Bay - A peaceful waterfront escape

Are you seeking refuge from your daily routine? Hoping to recharge your batteries, let your mind quiet itself and simply relax? Then "the DREAMCATCHER" is exactly what you have been waiting for. Peaceful sunrises and watercolor sunsets await just off the rear porch. Grab a hot cup of coffee and snuggle into an oversized chair as you watch the pelicans dive for their breakfast. Midday, hop on a paddle board or in a kayak to explore the beautiful desolate adjacent islands. In the evening, try your hand at fishing and cook it up fresh on the grill. Complete your day swaying in a hammock and sipping a cocktail as the evening breeze surrounds you and lulls you to sleep. Take this moment in time to pamper yourself. Our goal is for you to leave this place refreshed, relaxed and ready to embrace your next adventure!

Kiddo Friendly Getaway

Rainy weekend

Enjoyed our stay! The weather was the only one that did not get the memo that we were on a weekend getaway. All in all it was still nice. Had no complaints on the house. Amazing view from the dock, to the deck, to the couch, and all the way to the kitchen. Did not get to enjoy the back deck like we wanted to but looking forward to another stay in the future with better weather hopefully. Would definitely recommend!

Most relaxing vacation

We loved our stay in the Dreamcatcher on Dauphin Island. It was the most relaxing vacation that we have been on in a long time. We had a great time watching dolphins and the seabirds from the back deck and the dock. You could see the water from every room in the house (except the bathrooms haha). The living room was a nice gather place to hang out while it was raining. You could still see the water perfectly. The TV's were perfect size and great for watching football. Go Chiefs! The two bedrooms had a bathroom attached to each of them so it was perfect for us (two couples). The beds were very comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment. The whole house was very clean. We liked that there were beach chairs for our use and they came in handy for our beach days. The house is close to both East end and West end beaches. The lift worked great for getting our luggage in and out. Heather, the owner, was wonderful to work with and quickly responded to all of our questions. Our only complaint is that our vacation was over way too soon! Be sure to go to the Lighthouse Bakery for a cinnamon roll! Yum!

Fall getaway

Our stay was perfect! The house was furnished with everything we needed. Heather was quick to respond to all of our questions. The location was great and we really enjoyed the view from the porch. We had fun using the kayaks, paddle boards, and bicycles that were available. It was a very fun and relaxing week for us.

Excellent Property

Thrilled with our stay at this property. Hosts were so pleasant and attentive. Home was clean, comfortable, beautiful. The location on the water made for such relaxing mornings and evenings. We fished and kayaked daily. We prepared many of our meals at the home and had everything we needed. Beds and bedding extremely comfortable! Nice bathrooms. Many thoughtful elements at this home. All vacation homes should be like this. Looking forward to our return!

Best Vacation!

We had the ultimate get-a-way experience without even leaving the house! There is so much attention to detail put into this home and its amenities; it felt like Heather & Earl thought of everything they would personally want in a vacation and made it a reality for their guests. Everything you would want or need was provided-beach chairs, umbrellas,(even beach hats!), fishing poles, kayaks, bikes, corn hole and ping pong. The view is amazing! Our family of four was comfortable and entertained the entire time. Heather is so friendly and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!

Truly a 5-⭐️ listing!

The 1st thing my husband said when we arrived, was “You did an awesome job finding this place!” We came to DI with our boat for RMYAT and this was the perfect home with a perfect location. It’s exactly as pictured, was clean as a whistle and had ALL of the amenities plus added bonuses like a bait freezer, kayaks, and paddle boards. It’s also conveniently located to a boat ramp and marina, and within walking distance of the Rodeo site. No more waiting forever at the Rodeo boat dock to unload and weigh in!! 🙌 Heather is an amazing hostess, quick to communicate when needed, and extremely accommodating. We look forward to returning to this same home on our next fishing trip. Thank you, Heather!

Well equipped

This property was very easy to access. It had every thing you would need in the kitchen to cook with, which was a plus because the restaurant scene was certainly not what we would consider good choices. There were a few disappointments though. Doors drug on the floors, some windows were not clean/disgusting and one door leaked hot air from outside. Even when it was locked tight you could see outside on one whole side of it. The refrigerator would not keep food cool. Even after turning the settings all the way down, we still had food spoil. It should be replaced. The stairs on the back of the house were sketchy. While carrying our heavy coolers up and down them we were nervous they may collapse. They probably need to be revamped as well.
