About this house rental

The Dan de Lion Lodge is a charming, historic home, built in 1918, as a "speak easy" during Mobile's prohibition era. Later it was converted to a home and added on to for family fleeing Nazis during World War II. Newly renovated, it is perfect for family gatherings, retreats, grilling, boating, fishing, watching mullet jump and relaxing sunset viewing on the wharf.
Nestled among 7 acres of Live Oaks and Palmettos on the banks of beautiful Dog River, this house is only 15 minutes from Downtown Mobile; a city famous for being the birthplace of Mardi Gras, delicious Gulf seafood and several antebellum homes in its 600 blocks of historic districts.
World famous Bellingrath Gardens is 30 minutes to the south and the beautiful white sand beaches of Dauphin Island are 45 minutes away.

This is our family’s 4th Christmas staying here & we absolutely love it! This house is so unique & has so much charm. We love the private lot away from a busy road, our adult kids love playing games on the lawn & hanging out on the dock. Some new pan’s & Tupperware were added this year, a nice surprise. Maybe next year a new mattress in the room closest to the deck! We love the history of this home, it has made our Christmases magical! * for those who have never been, this house is OLD the floors aren’t level, the decor is quirky, if that bothers you this isn’t the place for you. Which is great, because we LOVE IT!
