About this property

The Whole Crew - Dauphin Island waterfront home on beautiful Little Dauphin Bay

This large vacation home sits on the banks of beautiful Little Dauphin Bay.

It has the easiest gulf access for all of your fishing adventures. This home accommodates you with plenty of docking area for your boat or wave runners along the newly installed bulkhead along two sides of the property. The waterfront is perfect for you, your family, and friends to fish from sunrise to sunset. The whole crew is a very spacious 7-bedroom bay front home that has beautiful hardwood floors. This house is like having two homes in one. Upstairs has 4 large bedrooms, a living room, a full kitchen, a washer and dryer, and three full bathrooms. Upstairs there are two queen beds, one king bed, two sets of full bunk beds, and a set of twin bunk beds. Downstairs has three bedrooms with two full bathrooms. There is a master suite king bedroom, a queen bedroom, and a twin bedroom. It also accommodates you with a game room/full-size living room in the downstairs area.

When you stay at this beautiful bayfront home you will have lovely views of the bay. Sit back in the lounge chairs looking over the water and enjoy the breeze while watching breathtaking sunrise and sunsets. You can take a stroll on the bike trails or walk through the beautiful bird sanctuary. You can't go wrong with this house for you and your "Whole Crew."

The beds in The Whole Crew include 2 kings, 3 queens, 4 doubles (bunks), 2 singles (bunks), and 1 single. The Whole Crew is located on the east end, north side of Dauphin Island. It is on the channel that leads to the Gulf of Mexico. Bring your boat and go fishing. You can also fish off the dock. The small adjacent beach is great for swimming or kayaking.

Beautiful views and great location

Our family comes to the island every Father’s Day weekend and this was the best layout for everyone to enjoy and not be on top of each other. You can’t beat the views. We kept our boat right at the house which was really nice. Would definitely rent it again.

The perfect place for big families

This visit was to celebrate my neices graduation. We had a great time. There was so many games to keep the kids occupied when we weren't at the beach and my teenage son fished the whole time. The kayaks were a big hit too. Checkin was easy and the instructions were readily available and easy to follow. The location was great. Just minutes away from the ferry, fort, and beach. Highly recommend for big families.

Fun for the whole family

We stayed with extended family, and we were all impressed with the amount of space available in the house. It was great to have living space both upstairs and down and plenty of bathrooms for everyone. The kids loved the bunk room where almost all the cousins could fit. Great location right on the bay. We didn't have much luck with fishing or crabbing, but it was fun to try. We had many pelican, gull, loon, and heron sightings right from the front deck (great to have a pair of binoculars right there, too!). We also had dolphin sightings right from the yard at least two mornings we were there. We were also able to walk from the house to multiple places on the island without having to go far. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, silverware, and cooking-ware. It was nice having two fridges, one up and one down. The kitchen island gave plenty of space for cooking prep and for buffet-style serving of the food. We made use of both the kitchen table area and the chance to eat out on the front deck. The kids enjoyed the various games they found inside as well as some lawn games outside. They also just enjoyed looking for hermit crabs and other critters in the sandy area right near the house. The hosts helpfully called us when there were high winds expected to let us know what to do with the deck furniture, so it wouldn't blow around. They also responded quickly to any messages asking about amenities before we arrived. Overall a great experience!

What an AMAZING experience!

Our family of 9 adults & 7 children (ages 10-17) spent our Thanksgiving get-together at "The Whole Crew." WOW does not begin to express how much we enjoyed our stay & how pleased we were with the overall experience. We highly recommend this property for families looking to celebrate at an island locale.

Family fun

We had a great time on Dauphin Island. We enjoyed using the kayaks and floating at the house but didn’t have far to drive if we wanted to go the the beach or take the ferry. We were also able to walk to the Bakery in one direction or the Bird Samctury in the other. The house is in a great location if you like to do a variety of activities.

Family get together

This is a beautiful property with a great location. View is breathtaking. Other than wasps and a few other issues that are naturally occurring, we truly enjoyed our stay. And as for the wasps, action was taken to rid them. Got rid of some, not all.

Excellent place and Location

We stayed here for the rodeo.. so convenient to the rodeo site by both boat and car. The outside decks both upstairs and down stairs were both very comfortable to everyone in our party… the waterfront views were incredible…the dock to tie your boat up to was awesome. If I had one complaint, it would be that boats come flying thru there causing large wakes, so you have to make sure your boat is properly tied off and you have the bumper buoys to keep it from banging into the pier… the owner is VERY reachable with any assistance or questions u may have..overall this place was unbelievably comfortable and fit all our needs and wants!

Family vacation

This is our second time staying at The Whole Crew we love it. The first time was with my parents and this time it was to remember them and how much they loved the island. The house is very spacious and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The adults loved the convenience of the kayaks and the deck is a great place to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Beautiful Home

This home was huge and had plenty of room for our large group. We enjoyed fishing right off the peer, playing in the small beach/inlet and the use of the kayaks! As it says, there are 7 rooms to sleep, but just know that the small single room is really a very small converted space under the stairs with room for only the bed - with very little room to even walk. If you don't like small spaces, don't count on this as a room. The host was very easy to contact and was very responsive. The views were spectacular from the decks and the neighborhood was very quiet. We enjoyed our vacation and made many wonderful memories here.

Lovely Bay House

What a lovely house for a multi-family vacation! The upstairs kitchen and living space is big enough for a group to relax together. Bedrooms everywhere. I wasn't sure if all of the bathrooms were full baths or if some were half; they are all full (3 upstairs and 2 down), although some are small. The location is what we loved the most. No one had time to get bored- there is something for everyone here. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by B S & H Investments, LLC

Our family has owned this home for more than 60 years. Our parents built it and now three sisters currently own the home in a family partnership. The third generation of children and grandchildren is quite large. With all the many different schedules of all the family members, we have decided to rent the home when our schedules prevent us from using.

Why they chose this property

Our home is a perfect location for a quiet family vacation or for a large family reunion. With room for children downstairs and adults upstairs, it makes for a great vacation base for all generations to have their own space.
