Emerson House Fairhope - Steps to Fairhope Pier, Downtown

Most visit Fairhope for the majestic Mobile Bay sunsets, quaint small-town shopping and dining, local art and pottery, and good old fashioned peace and quiet. For these interests Emerson House Fairhope is hands down the best location you can find.

Sitting just one block from Mobile Bay and the Fairhope Pier, an easy walk accesses everything downtown - great dining, shopping, art, parks and more.

This spacious custom built home caters well to large families and groups. Featuring an open kitchen adjacent to a formal dining room support entertaining and casual dining alike.

An additional upstairs living area and a large outdoor seating area make spreading out comfortably a joy to stay on property.

The backyard is a fully decked and furnished seating area; a pergola provides partial shade.

The rocking chairs on the screened front porch create an additional space that is perfect for coffee and reading.

And for a more authentic experience, cruise around town in the complimentary house golf cart like a true Fairhopian.

Fairhope visit for a wedding

We Loved the spacious and comfortable layout , quiet location with walkable distance to downtown and the many nice amenities offered at the house. Quick response to our questions from the manager/owner. We were only in FH 4 nights but would very much enjoy revisiting this property. 18 Cliff St was highly recommended by friends that had previously rented the property .

This house was amazing.

We rented for my family for my daughter's wedding in Fairhope. The bridal party got dressed, makeup and hair and it was perfect. It is well stocked and the living areas and front porch were so comfortable. Everyone loved being there.

PERFECTION IN FAIRHOPE!!

I can't say enough great things about this property. My adult family stayed here for a long weekend and all were so impressed with the beauty of the home, the furnishings, and the surrounding neighborhood - none of us wanted to leave! We took frequent walks to the Bay and to the shops downtown. The property manager was so responsive and attentive. We look forward to staying in this home on many future trips to Fairhope.

Weekend on the Cliff

The house was perfect in every way!! We came to Fairhope for a long weekend with friends and the house did not disappoint. It was perfect location to town, restaurants and the Bay. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and a great bar area. The outside porch was a great area in the evening for wine and conversation. We can’t wait to come back!!

Perfect location and soooo nice!

The home was beautiful and just a short walk to the pier. We stayed there with family and friends for my daughter’s wedding, and we rented the Bay House Estate just around the corner for her bridal party. It was the perfect combination of properties for an event of that type, and the property manager was very accommodating. I definitely recommend this property!

Great location, lovely house

We thoroughly enjoyed out 5 night stay though it rained everyday. The location was perfect, pier for sunsets (in theory) and quick walk to town. The house looks equally as cute in person as it does in the listing. The beds were super comfortable....we actually utilized the beds in the nooks even though we didn't have to...they were cozy and comfy. We would definitely stay here again on future travels to Fairhope.

Chic home in chic Fairhope

My husband daughter and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautifully appointed home, and we wished we had more folks to share it with! Amazing bedrooms throughout with Master suite on main floor but many Master-adjacent bedrooms upstairs. Appliances worked great and the home was lovely to use. Fairhope is amazing and this home is as well.

Christmas in March

We rented for my family belated Christmas get together with my brother who lives in Fairhope! It was perfect for everyone to fit with lots of room for everyone. Beautiful kitchen and lots of bathrooms and beds. A short walk to the pier made sunsets perfect and a rocking front porch. Used the hot tub after playing pickle ball at the local tennis park. Definitely will use again when visiting!
