Emerson House Fairhope - Steps to Fairhope Pier, Downtown

Most visit Fairhope for the majestic Mobile Bay sunsets, quaint small-town shopping and dining, local art and pottery, and good old fashioned peace and quiet. For these interests Emerson House Fairhope is hands down the best location you can find.

Sitting just one block from Mobile Bay and the Fairhope Pier, an easy walk accesses everything downtown - great dining, shopping, art, parks and more.

This spacious custom built home caters well to large families and groups. Featuring an open kitchen adjacent to a formal dining room support entertaining and casual dining alike.

An additional upstairs living area and a large outdoor seating area make spreading out comfortably a joy to stay on property.

The backyard is a fully decked and furnished seating area; a pergola provides partial shade.

The rocking chairs on the screened front porch create an additional space that is perfect for coffee and reading.

And for a more authentic experience, cruise around town in the complimentary house golf cart like a true Fairhopian.

We had a great stay with family at Emerson house. The kids loved walking down to the pier each night for awesome sunsets. Went to the park with splash pad nearby. House was better/bigger in person than it showed in the pictures, with high ceilings.

Perfect location and soooo nice!

The home was beautiful and just a short walk to the pier. We stayed there with family and friends for my daughter’s wedding, and we rented the Bay House Estate just around the corner for her bridal party. It was the perfect combination of properties for an event of that type, and the property manager was very accommodating. I definitely recommend this property!

Great location, lovely house

We thoroughly enjoyed out 5 night stay though it rained everyday. The location was perfect, pier for sunsets (in theory) and quick walk to town. The house looks equally as cute in person as it does in the listing. The beds were super comfortable....we actually utilized the beds in the nooks even though we didn't have to...they were cozy and comfy. We would definitely stay here again on future travels to Fairhope.

Weekend on the Cliff

The house was perfect in every way!! We came to Fairhope for a long weekend with friends and the house did not disappoint. It was perfect location to town, restaurants and the Bay. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and a great bar area. The outside porch was a great area in the evening for wine and conversation. We can’t wait to come back!!

Fairhope visit for a wedding

We Loved the spacious and comfortable layout , quiet location with walkable distance to downtown and the many nice amenities offered at the house. Quick response to our questions from the manager/owner. We were only in FH 4 nights but would very much enjoy revisiting this property. 18 Cliff St was highly recommended by friends that had previously rented the property .
