We have stayed in several homes in the area and this is by far our favorite. It was very clean and in a great location. Private backyard which we enjoyed. First place we have stayed where we didn’t have to message the host about problems. Everything was great!

A wonderful, quiet, comfortable home to enjoy close to Fairhope. We were 5 adults and everyone loved their sleeping quarters, deco, cleanliness and large living space. We had space for meals, games, and just chilling. Great parking. Our host were quick to return texts and easy to work with. Thanks for allowing me to share our experience.

Everything was wonderful. The house was neat , clean and in a great location. The only issue we had was that we did not have enough towels and wash cloths. We needed 2 more of each. I look forward to booking again next year.

These hosts went above and beyond. The house is freshly renovated, clean and comfortable. It is close to grocery stores and dining. The outdoor space is welcoming and cozy. There were so many little unexpected details that made this rental stand out, from a fully stocked coffee bar, to welcome waters and snacks and extra toothpaste, mouthwash and razors. It was the perfect place for us to enjoy all of the festivities surrounding our daughter’s college graduation!

This is a lovely house. Beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds and nice bed sheets. Area is nice and quiet. The pool wasnt opened, closed for the season. We were under the impression that the house was on a golf course but, it isnt. There is a golf course about 5 minutes away. The host are nice and easy to get in touch with. The only issue we found was the lack of privacy, the host has 4 RING cameras, 2 of which are looking straight in the property, one is right next door to the main bedroom and the other one is on the shed outside looking in. Overall, its a nice, comfortable and close to everything property. Yes, i would recommend choosing this place but be aware of the cameras.

First off, host communication was amazing. Prompt responses to my questions at every turn. Much appreciated. Secondly, the place was super clean. Everything was thought of - if we forgot tooth paste/razors, it was provided. Soap, shampoo, conditioner - check. Coffee, snacks, and some waters - check. Great location as well in a very quiet neighborhood with access to the pool. We will repeat our stay in the future here (or at their other property they own as well due to how the owners simply thought of every minor detail. Thanks again for a magical stay with our family where we made alot of fun memories! Until next time....
