About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Fairhope 3BR house. 4min to Grand Hotel, 7min to Dwntown Fhope, 44min to Gulf

Location, privacy, king-size beds, great TV setup, and fast Wi-Fi — all in one place.

Bring the family for a beach vacation just 45 minutes from the Gulf, then return to the comfort of this 3-bedroom cottage. In town for a wedding? You’re only 4 minutes from the Grand Hotel and 7 minutes from downtown Fairhope with its great shopping and dining.

The cottage has a nice back porch, a large backyard, and privacy fencing on both sides. The entire place is yours — the owners do not live on or next to the property.

What makes this property special?

Privacy comes first.
I’d estimate that about 80% of short-term rentals have owners living on the property or right next door. We’re neither. You don’t have to feel like you’re being watched or checked on — just relax and enjoy your stay.

Location, without feeling crowded.
You’re minutes from downtown Fairhope and the Grand Hotel (we host a lot of wedding guests), yet the setting feels peaceful and almost country-like. Behind the cottage is a horse field, and the property has a big backyard with solid privacy fencing. If the beach is calling, the Gulf is only 44 minutes away.

A TV area that actually makes sense.
I love a good TV setup, and this cottage has one. Comfortable couch, plenty of seating for the family, and — this matters — the TV is mounted at eye level, not way up on the wall. No strained necks here. After a long day, it’s nice to come back and watch a good show or movie. If you use your streaming accounts, the Wi-Fi is very fast.

Beds matter. A lot.
Two of the bedrooms have king-size beds. After a full day of beach time, wedding events, or exploring Fairhope, that makes a difference.

Fully equipped kitchen & laundry.
If you’d rather stay in, the kitchen has everything you need — including a gas range. There’s also a washer and gas dryer, which our long-term guests especially appreciate.

Pet-free home.
No pets means no worries about allergies or pet dander.

Plenty of hot water.
In town for a wedding or event with five people needing showers? No problem. The cottage has a new oversized gas water heater — because cold showers are the worst.

Cleanliness matters.
Let’s get this out of the way — cleanliness is on everyone’s mind, and for good reason. We hold ourselves to high standards and do our best to keep the cottage spotless for every guest.

Large kitchen table for the whole family.
K-Cup coffee maker with coffee and creamer provided.
Covered putting green, Pictionary game with dry-erase board, bocce ball, croquet, and kids’ board games — great for keeping everyone entertained.

Walk to dinner, easy grocery runs.
Fine-dining restaurant Char 32 is within walking distance across the street at the Point Clear Tennis Club. A brand-new Publix is less than five minutes away — and no stoplights on the way.

Please note, we want you to be completely satifsfied with your stay and know what to expect. This is an older house built in the 80s. Some things have been renovated like the kitchen counters, ceilings and doors, but other things are from the original build like the floors. If you are looking for a good clean place that is budget friendly and will accomodate your whole group, this is your place.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with an oven and a stovetop. There's a private patio. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Walked in the door and was overwhelmed with smell of mold. Found what appeared to be black mold in vents. Home is in desperate need of repair...holes in bedroom floor, deck railing broken off, deck roof falling apart, front screen punched out. The photos provided were a misrepresentation/very dated.

It’s would be a great place for a family to spend time together. They had lots of board games and a great table for game nights. Just a sweet place to stay and not feel like you are in a hotel but more at home.

Cozy older house in a very nice area of town. Quiet and private. Can be a bit hard to find, especially after dark. (Driveway is first one on your left after Tennis Club dr, just past the wooden privacy fence-no mailbox, but house # is on a post near the road) Owner provides excellent directions and clear expectations for your stay.

Cozy and clean!

This is a rustic cottage nestled on a very peaceful lot. The backyard overlooks a horse pasture. It is an extremely tranquil and quiet property, and close to everything. Ideal location! The cottage provided all of the comforts of home. Full kitchen, along with a coffee bar. Michael was a phone call or text away If you had any questions. He leaves a notebook with everything you need to know ...complete with restaurant suggestions. He goes above and beyond! Thank you for a great stay, Michael!you have any questions

Golden Girls

The facility was perfect for our family. There were 5 of us sisters ages 70 (me), 72, 73, 74, and 75. We always got together for Mom’s birthday. Mom died in 2016 at age 84 and we wanted to continue getting together. The location, facility, and registration worked well. I can’t say enough about Michael. He was so prompt in responding to my needs and questions. I barely finished my text and immediately received his response. We loved it and hope to return one day.
