Peace by the Bay

We are repeat guests. The hosts are excellent and their home is comfortable, quiet, well-equipped, and in a beautiful location. Easy access to groceries, restaurants, cafes, shops, and bookstores. The full pier is great for boat access and for watching the sunset.

We loved the house! It had everything we needed for our group of seven. It was clean, nicely renovated, spacious, but also felt cozy. We'd definitely love to stay here again if we come back to the Fairhope area for another of our reunions.

Dreamy, relaxing home

This property is even more impressive than in pictures! Very clean and beautifully decorated. Our family enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for our end of summer family trip! The owners provided a helpful guide to local restaurants, etc. and were very quick to respond when I reached out with questions about local fishing guides. We'll definitely be back!

Cute house!

We loved this house! The pier was awesome! Saw dolphins almost daily. The inside of the house was so cute. We spent a lot of time sitting on the back porch watching the ocean. We wished we had remembered our binoculars. Thank you so much for letting us borrow your house!
