Fairhope 3BR house. 4min to Grand Hotel, 7min to Dwntown Fhope, 44min to Gulf
This three-bedroom cottage is ideal for wedding guests, visitors coming to see family, or anyone spending time in Fairhope. You’re just 4 minutes from the Grand Hotel and 7 minutes from downtown Fairhope with its shopping, dining, and events.
Just a quick heads-up: this is an older home built in the early 1980s. Some updates have been made (including kitchen counters, ceilings, and doors), while other features — such as the floors — are original and show normal wear consistent with the home’s age. The home is priced accordingly and offers strong value for a clean, well-located three-bedroom house in Fairhope.
The cottage has a 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?
Consistently highly rated by guests. This home has earned exceptional reviews for cleanliness, comfort, and location, placing it among the highest-rated vacation homes guests stay in
Privacy comes first. Many short-term rentals have owners living on the property or nearby. We don’t. The entire place is yours, and the owners do not live on or next to the property. We also do not have video cameras on the premises. You won’t feel watched or checked on — just comfortable and at ease.
Close to Fairhope, without feeling crowded. You’re minutes from downtown Fairhope and the Grand Hotel (we host many wedding guests), yet the setting feels peaceful and relaxed. A horse field sits behind the property, and the backyard is spacious and private.
A TV area that actually makes sense. Comfortable seating for the whole group and a TV mounted at eye level — not high on the wall. Fast Wi-Fi makes streaming easy after a long day visiting family or attending events.
Beds matter. Two bedrooms feature king-size beds, which guests especially appreciate after full days of wedding activities, family gatherings, or exploring Fairhope.
Fully equipped kitchen & laundry. The kitchen includes a gas range and everything needed to prepare meals at home. A washer and gas dryer are available and convenient for longer stays.
Pet-free home. No pets means no concerns about pet dander or allergies.
Plenty of hot water. A newer oversized gas water heater comfortably handles multiple showers — helpful when several guests are getting ready at once.
Cleanliness matters. We take cleanliness seriously and work hard to keep the home comfortable and welcoming for every stay.
Extras for families and groups. Large kitchen table, K-Cup coffee maker with coffee and creamer provided, covered putting green, Pictionary with dry-erase board, bocce ball, croquet, and kids’ board games.
Easy dining and groceries. 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 with no stoplights on the drive.
Bottom line
If you’re visiting Fairhope for a wedding, family time, or an extended stay — and want a clean, comfortable, budget-friendly home with privacy and a great location — this cottage is a solid fit.

The property gave us exactly what we needed. It was a quiet comfortable place to have a Thanksgiving dinner with our son. It also gave him a chance to unwind and enjoy a home cooked couple of meals with family. It was just what the doctor ordered!

The area around the property was very refreshing. The cottage was very nice and comfortable beds. Thanks again.
The house was cozy and the outside was a great spot to grill and relax. Overall this was a great stay and if I am ever in the area again I will definitely be staying here.
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.

Very clean and homey. Owner was very quick and helpful to respond to any questions. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Nice property. Could use some sprucing up, but good location, nice town, terrific owner. Very comfortable beds. Would recommend, would stay there again.
We were attending a family wedding and this property was perfect for the four of us. The location was ideal for all our activities. Great communication with the host. We were close to excellent dining and were able to prepare meals for our stay with everything we needed. Looking forward to staying here again.
Michael was probably the more attentive and communicative VRBO I have ever had. He went out of his way to be accomodating. The place was clean and nice though understand while it says "house" the property is a (nice) double wide.
House is dated, but comfortable. Close to downtown while still quiet and peaceful. Neighbors horses fun to watch. Excellent communication with host. Good value.
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! It was perfectly clean and exactly what we needed for our baseball tournament during the hot summer. Michael was very helpful in giving recommendations and was available throughout the stay for anything we may need. I highly recommend staying here!
This was our second time staying at the Point Clear Cottage and will not be our last! Couldn't ask for a better place to stay to enjoy the area or to just relax. Thanks, Michael.
Our family had a wonderful visit to this property! The cottage was well supplied and had everything we needed for a family of 5 with older children. The hosts were welcoming and we felt confident had we needed any assistance that they would have been available and accommodating. Finally, the cottage was conveniently located to Fairhope which was a big bonus for our quick trip!
We stayed at this property for a weekend while in town for a friend’s wedding. It was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Michael the host went out of his way to leave snacks for us when we arrived and write a nice note welcoming us to the property. Highly recommend!
The property was very clean, had all the amenities we needed, and was very spacious for a small house. The deck on the back of the house was a very popular spot. We will definitely try to book this house when we come back to Fairhope.
This is a great place to stay. The host is the best we’ve ever had - great communication, very responsive. The house is very clean, and it is well stocked. Our young grandchildren stayed one night with us, and they were entertained. It was easy to have a 2 1/2 year old there. The area is beautiful. We had a lovely stay.
We are group of traveling plumbers all we care about is hot showers and beds anything more is a plus to us. Well no one complained about their bed all of us slept good, and we all had enough hot water to shower each night after work! It’s a good place that we have added to our list to check anytime we have to return to the area to work!
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.
