Wonderful stay on the bay!

We really enjoyed our stay, thank you to Beth! The house was in great shape and our kids really enjoyed the dock. It was great having a gate on the fenced in dock for added piece of mind with young kids. We’ll be back!

Great Bay Stay

Property was nice and clean, comfortable and stocked with all we needed for our stay. Spent most of our time on the pier and caught croakers, catfish, redfish, sting rays, mullet, crabs, and a dog shark. Slept well and had a restful stay. Even got in on a small jubilee, a real bonus. Highly recommend for small families or couples.

Brief Bay Getaway

My husband and I drove over from Biloxi for a quick birthday trip. The cottage was absolutely perfect for us. My husband loves the water and the views are unmatched. We didn’t utilize much of it, but the house seemed stocked with what ever you could need from toiletries, towels, to cooking ware. We watched the sunset from the dock while my husband cast his fishing pole. It was a picturesque birthday evening for him. We will definitely be booking again.

Beautiful sunrise and sunset

Great little place a few minutes south of Fairhope. The long pier lets you see a nice sunrise and the sunsets are spectacular over the bay. Well stocked with all the basics. Very clean and comfortable. Easy communications with the owner.

Vacation With Family

We found the property very pleasant to be at and everything was available as advertised. Spent a wonderful 6 nights and pier was great to have available for fishing or just sitting and watching the fish jump and birds fly. Hope to be able to return again. Would encourage others to check it out. Thanks for letting us enjoy your home.

Covered Pier Feb 2025

The Property Mgr ,Beth Ann, was always available on short notice to stop in or answer our questions. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the utensils that were needed.The house and bedding were very clean. The gated deck was great for having a dog. Fantastic sunsets and you could see barge traffic in the distance on Mobile Bay. Check out Madi Gra dates next year as a parade went right by the house...so much fun. Fairhope has so many shops and restaurants, many are dog friendly, along with a nice shaded dog park. Definitely can spend 2 weeks in this quaint town without having to go to Gulf Shores...Nice farmers market in Foley on Sat mornings and fresh shrimp right off the boats in Bon Soucor.

Quiet Retreat on Mobile Bay

My husband and I found this property to be aptly named, the Charming Bayfront Getaway. We are from Wisconsin and a vacation in balmy Fairhope was exactly what we needed to thaw out! The cottage is ideal and we were able to bring our two small dogs. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the utensils needed to cook just about any meal. The internet was fast. The boat house at the end of the pier was a perfect spot for morning meditation. We even saw a pod of dolphins swim past! I can definitely recommend this lovely cottage!

A great choice for an Eastern Shore getaway.

We've stayed in several properties along Baldwin Co. Route 1 on the shore of Mobile Bay in the past. This is hands down the best cottage we've chosen. In addition to a great location, the cottage was furnished nicely--very traditional shore-like amenities, exceptionally clean and had some features that you'd love to get in any vacation property you rented: Namely: A well-equipped, orderly kitchen, comfortable mattresses, an adequate number of towel bars in the bathroom, quality linens, and just about all the extras you need. Thanks, Mandy for the use of your cottage.

Disappointing

Couldn’t go on pier due to unevenness. Couldn’t walk out to covered area on end of pier. Muddy water sitting under house and standing water along driveway. Was afraid I’d get stuck turning car around. Hit head on side of house while trying not to step in mud. No comfortable place to sit on outside deck. House was very old and creepy to me. Drove 7 hours back home next day. Stayed at hotel. Overnight
