The Fox Den was so cozy. We felt like we were in a cabin in the woods, but were so close to everything Dauphin Island had to offer. The host, Jennifer, was amazing. She made sure we knew about everything on Dauphin Island, groceries, activities, and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again.

Great retreat!

A perfect cozy cabin…despite being surrounded on all sides of an island with water this felt like a forest get away! Yet access to beaches was just a tiny drive to enjoy the beach and sun. So peaceful and serene, the accommodations were perfect. Everything from the porch swing to the comfortable bed. Everything you need to cook a full meal for everyone and fresh coffee in the morning and a friendly little fox century that guards the home day and night (so sweet). All amenities are in tip top working order! Looking forward to next time I get to stay again! 🦊

A older home nicely renovated. Unfortunately, we stayed during a rare and extreme cold weather snap and the HVAC units could not heat the house faster than it lost heat. The mini-splits were set on 75 but the house temperature inside was in the low 60's Sunday morning. The electric fireplace really doesn't make enough BTU's to really help heat the space. A quick look showed that the walls/roof of this A-frame are not insulated and most any other day, it wouldn't matter but it did during these extremely low temps. The hot tub and cabin were clean and the bed comfy. Would give it 5 stars if it weren't for the heating issue. We would stay again in warmer weather but I wonder if the house would stay cool in summer weather?
