About this property
Sandy Beach, gorgeous sunsets, great front porch view!
Come enjoy the fabulous sunsets and relaxing atmosphere in this spacious a-frame on the bay! The house is just minutes from the great shopping and dining of the city of Fairhope, but just off the beaten path enough to feel private and secluded! Located on the eastern shore of Mobile bay, the house faces almost due south, meaning refreshing breezes in the summer, but protection from the wind in the winter, making the outdoor weather fabulous year-round!
This house is perfect for vacationing families. The downstairs bedrooms both have King sized beds, while 2 rooms upstairs will sleep lots of kids! The sandy beach is perfect for small children. A snowbird couple would also love this house, as the upstairs need not even be used! The view from the kitchen as you cook is just breathtaking.
There is a public boat ramp just one mile away, so bring your boat for skiing, tubing and fishing on the bay, or for a beautiful ride up the nearby magnolia river to swim in the cold spring waters.
Don't forget to pack your appetite for seafood. When baited, the two crab traps provided catch as many as a dozen crabs a day!

My wife and I enjoyed our week. Communications with host, check-in and check-out all went smoothly. The view and the sunsets were beautiful. Location was convenient for trips to Mobile, Fairhope, Gulf Shores and the nearby Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve.
This house was perfect for our family Christmas! The host was very helpful and we had everything we needed. We enjoyed the beautiful views and spending time on the pier.
Beautiful location! Very peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed bringing our dog (Boston Terrier) and were tickled that there was also another Boston at the neighboring house. The furnishings and appliances are basic and older, but functional. We would stay here again.
Our favorite place to stay! The host is so very helpful and the town of Fairhope is adorable! The sunsets are more beautiful than one can imagine and the crabbing off of the wharf can keep you fed for the whole week! The house is cozy and perfectly lovely!
We loved the open kitchen-living space that looks right out on the Bay. Plenty of couch space and a long kitchen island with stools. We also walked the full-length pier where others fish. The kitchen had all we needed. The beds were comfy. And the washer-dryer was easy to use. A great getaway.
This was a wonderful Bay house. Plenty of room. Comfortable beds. Great outdoor space. Plenty of parking. A definite must if you want to stay on Mobile Bay
We had an amazing time during our stay. The pier is amazing for fishing and enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Trin was very easy to communicate with and was very responsive!
Picture perfect getaway. Quiet and far enoigh away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas but close enough to enjoy everything they have to offer.
My family spent fall break here. You can watch the beautiful sunsets at front porch, catch fish or crabs at personal pier. Fairhope has peaceful downtown, Gulf Shores has white sand beach. Enjoy the fall break very much, will visit again!
We stayed for a family get-together with 6 adults ranging in age from 19-61 and had the best time! The pier offered gorgeous views of the bay. We had fun fishing and relaxing on the porch and pier. The kitchen was spacious and well stocked for our cooking needs. It was a great trip and we'd definitely stay again!
I stayed at a lovely accommodation for three days at a very reasonable price. The view from the place was fantastic, and the heater and hot water worked well. It was winter, but the weather was good enough to use the kayaks in the sea. I want to return to this place for my summer vacation.
We keep returning to this quiet and restful location. Beautiful sunrises with a resident blue heron wading along the bay edge every morning. Stunning sunsets. Crabcakes and crab linguini from crabs caught using the traps on the deck. An extremely well equipped kitchen. Very responsive owner. A lovely vacation spot all round.
We enjoyed our stay so much. We felt right at home. Don't let the idea of it being too small keep you from booking. Such a cute place and lots of room to spread out and relax.
Great little place with gorgeous views. The kids loved the “kids bedroom” and the other bedrooms were perfect for the adults. The living area/kitchen was a nice size for a big group. We loved being on the water. The long pier was nice to hang out on, and we were able to paddleboard and kayak right from the shore. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Beautiful little home with amazing views and a wonderful dock. Our boys loved it so much, as we did as well, we will for sure be staying again sometime in the future. Thank you so much for sharing your home!
Fabulous location and gorgeous views! Our family of 6 adults and 1 child really enjoyed our stay. Kitchen was pretty well stocked with the necessary items to make meals. Home was clean and suited our needs well. The spiral staircase has been replaced with normal stairs which was a nice upgrade! Hope to return next year for another family vacation!
This provided a perfect getaway for friends from 4 different states. We had not difficulties, finding the property or checking it. The home is clean, comfortably and invited community. The weather could have been better, but a spectacular light show, torrential rain on the tin roof were actually special. We are glad we stayed. A reminder that the coffee pot does not have auto shut off would be good. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place
Nice family vacation cottage, beautiful location. Lots of kitchen utensils, towels, bed linens. We brought, and used, extra blankets—but of course we were there in March!
