• 1st time staying at the bayou.

  3/5

  The home is at a nice and quiet area. Love the deck and the view. However when we arrived we noticed there is 1 tv in the living room none in the bedrooms. Which the kids didnt like on the rainy days having diffrent age groups was a bit hard to keep happy. There were dishes put away that where dirty so we had to wash everything as we used it. There was no where to put kitchen items that we needed everything had to sit on the counters. The bedrooms were nice however the beds are extremely hard which for me made it very hard to sleep comfortably with my back issues. They had a pack n play which was nice till we opened it and it was nasty left dirty and put away. Also they dont provide you with a mop just a swifter which with babies and toddlers I like to keep the floors clean or clean up spills which made it challenging. Also it was kind of a drive to anywhere you wanted to go stores close early there. There is a great doughnut shop there in town which is nice. The boat lift is locked so its not avaliable to guest. The dryer made a horrible noise sent video to owner she offered to have someone come out but told her since it was drying the clothes still to wait till we checked out. So if your looking for an isolated area and a quiet place this is definitely it. If you looking to go to the beach eat out your definitely gonna be taking a drive to get there about 30 min. Give or take depending on what your looking for. There was plenty of parking space for us and everything is lit up nice at night.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Cynthia, we always appreciate honest and constructive feedback. After speaking with the homeowner they asked us to provide a little more context to the situation you experienced:
  - We take the accuracy of our listings seriously! We’ve confirmed that we do advertise only one T.V. Also we do not advertise that the boat lift is available for guest use, for this reason it stays securely locked for safety.
  - There is plenty of storage available in the laundry/mudroom area adjacent to the kitchen, which can help keep counters clear for your use.
  - We do provide a Swiffer and a wet Swiffer for guests to use.
  - We do know that mattress preference is unique to each guest and while we try to accommodate all guests' comfort, mattress taste is subjective. We're sorry the mattress didn't meet your preferences.
  - Once we were notified of the dryer issue, we offered to have someone look at it which was declined. We will be sure to address this issue so it doesn't affect future guests.
  - The owners will pass along your feedback to the cleaners so they can look into the items you mention and address them for future guests.
  - We provide a map and distances to popular tourist spots in our listing, so guests can see the home's location before booking. We encourage guests to review our listing thoroughly to make informed decisions.
  We truly go above and beyond for our guests and are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!

• Amazing

  5/5

  Perfect location for fishing. The boat landing is across the creek and we were able to use it at high tide. The house is on several acre wooded lot. Very quiet and secluded. We enjoyed our wedding anniversary here.

  5/5

  This precious place was the perfect setting for our gathering of four forever friends. It had all the necessities and comforts of home. We loved the decor -with nautical, fishing, and wildlife theming. We enjoyed the bayou view (pelicans and herons included), the large raised deck and hammocks. The location was great for our visits Dauphin Island and Belingrath Gardens.

  Great, peaceful, and private location. House was clean and well stocked with towels, dishes, utensils, etc... All was comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
