Designed for those who love life on the water, this home features five slips, a boathouse, and a private dock, making boating, fishing, and sunset cruises part of your everyday lifestyle. Back at home, the expansive screened veranda, outdoor kitchen, infinity-edge pool, and sweeping lake views create an outdoor oasis that feels more like a private resort than a residence. Inside, more than 10,000 square feet of impeccably designed living space balances grand entertaining with everyday comfort.

This is the spirit of a Louisiana fishing camp, elevated far beyond the expected. Time to fish, room to gather, and a waterfront retreat that makes the getaway as rewarding as the destination. Take in breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views from the third-floor observation room, featuring an additional bar and poker parlor—an incredible space for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the views from every direction.

Overlooking the thirteenth hole of the reimagined Cypress Creek Golf Course, 3124 Riviere du Chien Loop offers a setting that is as memorable as the home itself with all that Dog River has to offer just around the corner. Built in 1983 and lovingly maintained by only its second owners, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath Southern Cottage offers 2,076 square feet unfolding across two levels, with an easy sense of connection between the kitchen, dining area, living room, and sunroom. The kitchen features granite countertops, a gas range, breakfast bar, butler’s pantry, and warm wood ceilings, opening to a dining area that steps down into a comfortable living room anchored by a wood-burning brick fireplace. Beyond the living room, an original brick-floored sunroom framed by sliding bay windows provides a quiet place to linger over morning coffee or take in the garden, with direct access to the backyard. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned together, along with the laundry and water heater. The primary suite features a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and en-suite bathroom with a skylight. Ample attic storage adds to the home's practicality, while two HVAC systems, each approximately two years old, offer an important modern update. Outside, the backyard embraces the property's exceptional setting. An above-ground pool and connected lounging deck create a natural gathering place, complemented by a gazebo ready for outdoor dining, grilling, or a future hot tub. Mature plantings and a productive pear tree bring an established garden feel to the grounds, all framed by the open views of Cypress Creek - a public course designed by professional golfer Jerry Pate and scheduled to open later this Fall. The detached 400-square-foot garage and workshop adds an unexpected layer of versatility. A single-car garage with loft storage and 220-volt outlets shares the structure with a heated and cooled, soundproofed office or gym filled with natural light, plus a separate workshop room. The surrounding neighborhood is known for its quiet atmosphere and genuine sense of community, with the Halls Mill Creek boat launch nearby providing access to Dog River and the recreational lifestyle of Mobile's waterways. Imagine coming home to sunsets over the fairway and a relaxing dip after a warm afternoon. Experience this luxury for yourself, 3124 Riviere Du Chien Loop will be available for tours and showings on Tuesday, September 1st.
