Paula's Place - A property with large lot, fully gated for family fun

Come spend time with your family or for anyone who wants to get away. Hollinger's Island is close to the Marina's, river restaurants and Mobile Yacht Club. We have had folks who come for many reasons including family get aways, fishing tournaments, business conferences, medical care in mobile, day trips to Dauphin Island / Gulf Shores.

A great place to zip to the city of Mobile 15 minutes from downtown or 25 minutes north of Dauphin Island. Paula's Place will give you the freedom to cook, have meals together, spend time in a quiet community that is a few blocks away from bay street that runs along Mobile Bay to the marina area.

You feel like you are in the country side and fee free to enjoy the property like home. Hammocks, bikes, beach chairs, kayaks on the property for your enjoyment.

Nice and quiet!

This is a great place to stay if you'd like to see Mobile and Dauphin Island. The yard is fenced in which was good for our dogs. Spacious and clean. We encountered a minor issue with a sink, the hosts were apologetic and fantastic to talk with. Will stay again.

Like staying at a friends house

For our first time staying in a Vrbo, we were impressed with the amount of space for the price. The whole house was clean, and our communication with Paula and John made us feel welcome and invited. We had full access to everything on the property, and it was nestled in a small community that felt safe. The house is located close enough to many attractions to be convenient but not claustrophobic.

Great place for a get away. The manager is super nice and helpful. The property is completely fenced in. I brought a 20 foot boat which barely fit between the gate but it did. The air conditioning was absolutely amazing! The shower water pressure was also the best I have ever experienced. Would go back.

Close to the coast but not in the hustle ans bustle

We stayed a long weekend at Paula’s place, Paula and her son were great through the whole process. Easy check in check out the house could use a little updating and a few changes but overall for the price and location it wasn’t bad.

The yard being fenced completely (once you shut the gate) was a bonus for us since we had our 2 dogs with us. The yard and trailer were both pleasant. The owner was quick to respond to questions. All in all a great stay!

Misleading description my first VRBO experience

The home hits you with a mold/mildew smell immediately. There are dirty fingerprints on every door and some light switches. The toaster oven was filthy. Our master bath shower curtain had mold on it. The second bathroom had some stinky smell also. The living room rug was very dirty. All the floors and corners were filthy. We did not feel comfortable cooking or eating here. We had headaches while there that went away once we were out the house for a while. Lots of things were in disrepair (cabinets, baseboards, tub walls) but I can over look those things if the place was CLEAN. You feel dirty just being there. The mold smell can not be safe. It’s overwhelming. The out door griddle was filthy. We left early. There was no way I could stay any longer. We would have left sooner but with 3 dogs we had no other option. There were dead bugs on window sills. I took multiple pictures, but you can’t photograph a smell. This place needs a deep cleaning.
