Awesome place to stay.

The Shed is a slice of paradise. Clean, quiet, nestled in the forest of south Alabama on the Fowl River. Good people, good place, good times. I would recommend to anyone.

Cute, Quiet, and Close to the Beach!

Such a quaint little cabin that felt remote yet close to the beaches. It was only about a 15 minute drive to Dauphin Island Beach. The country setting was so tranquil. We really enjoyed our stay!

Our Favorite Getaway

The Shed is a charming hidden gem located on Fowl River. It is a short drive to Dauphin Island. Patricia was warm and welcoming as always. Don't forget to buy some fresh seafood from the Zirlott's before you leave.

We loved our stay!

This was our first beach vacation to Dauphin Island. We were about 10 minutes and an easy drive to the beach! The shed is super adorable and spacious! Beds were comfy and everything was there that we needed for the whole week! The river runs behind it and there’s a seafood store - we are obsessed with the fresh shrimp & crab quiche! It was the perfect trip! We will be back next year for sure!!

Mother’s day getaway

This trip was last minute, just me and my boys. Miss Patricia was the BEST! The house was spotless, homey and very well located to Dauphin Island. I thoroughly enjoyed my Sunday morning chat with Miss Patrica. She was a Blessing!

Beautiful Coden Getaway

My husband, son, and I spent 3 nights at this peaceful property. Secluded yet close to many things. Dauphin Island was only around 15 minutes away. We spent a little of each evening there. Beautiful sunsets!! Mobile not far away as well. Would definitely stay here again! Beautiful property, nice inside, wonderful hosts! Was also a nice bonus to buy up some shrimp to bring home from the owners of the property(Zirlott's Gulf Products) before we left out. Thank you Patricia and Kate for sharing your property! We had a wonderful visit!

Quite get away

If you want peace and quiet after a long day of beaching and or fishing this is the place. My oldest son is hard to please but liked staying there. I have rented condos but a lot of time you can hear folks walking and talking as they go to there condo when you are trying to sleep. It’s real cozy. The owner and family are super friendly. The drive to the beach is not long at all. I would highly recommend it to someone who doesn’t want to deal with a bunch of people.

Peaceful Getaway

I really enjoyed my stay at "The Shed". It is a cozy little place that feels just right. I was in need of some time to myself and this little place fit the bill. The shed has everything you need right down to complimentary coffee. It was very clean and once you get there you feel miles away from everything and everyone, but you can get to the beach in an easy 15 minute drive. I also really enjoyed watching the Masked Fox Squirrels play right in the yard and walking down to the dock on the property to watch the sunset. You will not be disappointed!

Amazing!

Victor and Patricia were amazing. The Shed was great! Super clean and had everything we needed. Our kids fished on the dock and we went to the beach on Dauphin Island, which was only 10-15 minutes away. We hope to come back sometime soon! The Shed was great, but the hosts made the experience amazing. They were never intrusive or anything like that, but we knew they were always around if we need anything at all. It felt like we were visiting family that we had always known.

Worked Great for Our Needs

The booking and check in processes were seamless. The Shed served our purposes perfectly. We had plenty of room for the two of us and everything we needed to make a meal. The mattress was exceptionally comfortable however the pillows were small. The weather outside was extremely hot so the AC, as is typical in the south, had a hard time keeping up with the heat. However, it still was not hot in the rental. Communications with the host was on point. She was always a text or phone call away if needed. Thank you for a great day!

Perfect Private Getaway Spot Close To DI

We were looking for a basic clean and quiet spot for a short and affordable anniversary getaway on or close to Dauphin Island and this fit the bill perfectly! When I read the description I got excited that is was close to the river AND the island. The prospect of getting to see a ‘gator was exciting but alas we didn’t. Maybe next time! :) There was plenty of room, it was cool enough, anything we needed in the kitchen if we wanted to stop at Greer’s or get seafood from Zirlott’s and cook, and was clean and had plenty of towels. We enjoyed the food selections nearby and the hosts were very pleasant when we spoke. Just a perfect stay!

Perfect Location between Mobile and Dauphin Island

My husband, five yr old son and myself drove in from St. Louis for Labor Day Weekend. The property is beautiful and right on the water. It’s very quiet at night and in the morning. We visited Dauphin Island’s West End Beach twice which is only about 20 min away (no parking fee), and the USS Alabama in Mobile which is about 25 min North. FYI Dauphin Island closes up pretty much by 8, so plan your dinner ahead of time. The mainland side of West End Beach has much quieter waves, and black sand. Our 5 yr old son could have spent all day at the USS Alabama exploring. He loved it just as much as the beach. We had everything we needed at The Shed with a gracious and easily accessible host. Thank you for a lovely extended Weekend!
