Mr Presley stopped by while we were hooking up at our site, looked at our license plate and said he thought it was California day! We didn't understand what that meant but we were very happy with our campsite!. It had a raised deck and a lovely view of the lake. In the evening we went to the Boathouse Restaurant and had a delicious meal, with large portions at a value price. In the morning we went to pay our camping bill but Me Presley said because it had been "California day" there was no charge. We were speechless ! As a former business owner, I understood overhead and wanted to pay something but Mr Presley adamantly insisted there was no charge. We would still have been raving fans about Presley's outing campground without this display of hospitality and generosity.

We were in the Mobile area and decided to visit this expansive estate. Azaleas and camellia were…read morethe primary bloomers in mid-March, but there were other things to see in the gardens. Bellingrath is not among the gardens giving reciprocal admissions. After we paid, we were given a map and a brief explanation. Many of the garden paths are shady, while others are wide open. There are areas where there are lots of mosquitoes. Sunscreen and bug repellant are recommended for your visit. We enjoyed the water features, bridges, and the beautiful reflections. The so-called Asian-American garden near the end of the tour had some interesting hardscape but wasn't well maintained. The greenhouses were definitely worth a visit. There were lots of plants for sale during our visit. We didn't visit the Bellingrath Home Museum, which had an extra charge. All in all, we got some exercise and saw beautiful scenery during our visit. I'm guessing the gardens will be much nicer beginning in May. Hopefully the roses will be blooming by then.

Dauphine Island Campground is a great place to camp. We stayed in the tent camping area in our…read morerooftop tent. There is a spot to have a fire and every site has picnic tables which is nice. The tent camping area is very wooded so there is plenty of shade which is nice. We stayed here in April and were surpised that there were SO MANY mosquitos! We did get eaten alive by them even having bug spray on. There was a walking trail right by our campsite to walk to the beach. We took full advantage of that. The beach was clean and peaceful right on the Gulf! The bathhouse was pretty new and so clean and nice! There are sinks and mirrors right outside the showers as well as sinks and mirrors right outside the toilets. The showers were clean, spacious, have a bench to put all of your things, the water was hot and the water pressure was great as well. When checking in the staff was very friendly and informative. The office has a small selection of "general" merchandise you might need to save you a trip into town to a store. They also have firewood for sale. Be sure to get wood when you get there because the staff is gone at 5 or 6 and you won't be able to get wood after that; we made that mistake. If you have kids, there is a playground for them to play on which excited our kids. It was close enough to the tent camping area that we were able to see them playing from our campsite. They do have bicycles for the kids to ride if they didn't bring their own. My daughter learned the hard way that the bike she chose didn't have breaks and she took a pretty hard crash! I definitely recommend staying here if you're in the area.

If you are coming here for the beach access find…read moresomewhere else, the entire beach is torn up and there is loud construction equipment working well past midnight unfortunately. If you are in a camper you are probably fine from the noise but if you are in a tent good luck with sleep. Otherwise, this is a fantastic campground, cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a campground, great people staying there. As a solo female traveler this was the perfect spot for me to set up except no beach access and I was in a tent so got no sleep. Left after 1 night instead of 4 and while they told me it was nonrefundable they did not disclaim that the beach was closed or the noise.

I'd been trying for years to ride the ferry, but the weather was never in my favor. It's important to check the business's Facebook page to know when it is scheduled to run; it seems to be the most updated method to keep track. I recently caught a break and was able to ride from Fort Morgan to Dauphin Island. It really does run like clockwork and the views are cool as you're crossing. It's important to note for riders: there is really no coverage from the sun, so wear sunscreen. I'd definitely ride the ferry again, it beats that looong drive back and forth from one island to another.

We found this place on Trip Advisor as the Best Rated B&B in Alabama for 2013 and were pretty…read moredisappointed in our experience. When we called to book, the owner said the cottages were all booked through May but the Master Bedroom was available and would be $50 less per night that the cottage. The pics online look nice and cozy so we booked it! We booked the room thinking we would have a nice quiet room for our getaway. Not exactly. The Master bedroom was on the main floor, next to the living room and kitchen, where the TV was on constantly and the two ladies who work there were hanging out. The closet and drawers in the dresser of this room had all the clothes of a person who normally resides in there, most likely the owner. Kind of awkward to have mens shoes and PJs and suits/hats/etc... in the room where you are supposedly the guest of honor. Two things that were good: CLEAN beautiful place and good food! Breakfast was very good both days, but another awkward part of our room location was that the doors opening to our room were where breakfast was served, and were just glass covered with slated blinds. The cook mentioned to us that breakfast was to be served outside our door at 9 "so be sure to close your blinds." Wanted to have a quiet morning in bed, interrupted with people outside your door/window...no exactly romantic. The cook was good and we cannot complain about breakfast whatsoever. The food was great! The owner came in and interrupted the table conversation 3 times to talk about how hard it has been to "find good help" and went on about some women stealing money from him and taking items that guests had forgotten, etc.. REALLY? This is not something to go on and on about with your CURRENT GUESTS! Way to make us feel uncomfortable leaving anything of value around! I don't meant to rant and rave, but there were two other major disappointments with this place. We were told when we first booked to bring our swimsuits, as they had a hottub out under the stars next to the bay. Sounded super romantic to sit out there. So we bought some white wine and planned to spend some time out there on our last night. We got to the house around 9 and the owner got up, in his pajamas mind you, and offered us some ice cream. I know he was trying to be nice, but it felt more like our Grandpa was waiting up for us. We told him we were planning to use the hottub and instead of going out to make sure it was ready, he went out and found us a lantern and told us where to find the plug to turn on the lights out there. We got in our swimsuits and robes, toting our wine and glasses and lantern and hurried out in the cold to jump in. When we pulled the cover off and got in, it took a second to realize it was COLD! The temp was 80 degrees, set on "economy mode" and no instructions posted anywhere how to heat it up. We tried and tried and within 30 minutes it was only ONE degree warmer. We were pissed, and COLD. Not a good impression. The next morning he asked how the hot tub was and we told him our experience and instead of apologizing/etc, we was blaming people for "messing with it and not putting it back how they found it." Then he proceeded to tell us that it takes about 5 hours to heat up. The proper way to have handled this was to ask that morning if we wanted to use it, considering he told us to bring swim suits! Anyway, we were disappointed to say the least. During our final breakfast, he asked T (my other half) to come with him to settle the bill before he left for a Doctors appointment. He came back saying he couldn't use his band debit/credit card so I gave him my VISA. Again, he came back and said it wasn't working. I've never had a card rejected, by the way. I gave him my backup Mastercard and, guess what, "it isn't working." Because he was in a hurry, he had T ride with him to the nearest bank to pay the bill, (where they charged a usage fee because it wasn't our bank). We get home and T's online bank statement say's the fee was charged by Point Clear Cottages TWICE and cancelled TWICE. My mastercard says the exact same fee is still pending. If this charge doesn't disappear tomorrow, I'm contacting my bank! I seriously doubt this guy knows how to run the credit card machine. BEWARE! I think staying in the Bayside cottage, which is detached from the main house, would definitely be the only way to go if you want to book here. But honestly, there are over 20 other B&Bs on the same road that I would be willing to try instead, as well as a nice Marriott's Grand Hotel about 1 mile down the road. We would have paid the same amount, and had a functioning pool/considerate staff/etc. Overall, I would not recommend this place.
