Waterfront Home with Dock!


Enjoy dinners, sunsets and star gazing from the private dock 200' out on Mobile Bay. Explore the bay with our 2 Kayaks, relax in the Adirondack chairs on the boathouse or fish from the pier after a visit to the Bait shop.
Pets Welcome!
The house has a deck facing the Bay if you want to stay close to the kitchen for snacks and drinks. County Road 1 offers quiet walks in the morning and the marsh wildlife waking up offers an incredible experience of sights and sounds.
Fairhope's quaint downtown is 11 miles North, convenient but far enough to keep the city lights from drowning out the magnificent night sky. The beaches of Gulf Shores are a 35-minute drive South, or head North for the city lights of Mobile at about the same distance.

We decided to go on a last-minute trip, and this home was available. It was perfect—quiet, away from downtown, and equipped with a kitchen and washer/dryer. We enjoyed fishing and watching dolphins from the dock.

Great house with stunning views of the bay! Found the house to be clean and as described. All three of the bedrooms are separated with the two larger ones being on opposite sides of the house. The master BR has windows looking out on the bay which offers beautiful views as you wake up. The living room is cozy and has a small sitting area in the front where you can enjoy views of the bay in climate control if it’s too hot outside. There is a large well equipped kitchen and dining area that have good view of the bay as well. The dock was the highlight of the property with a covered area out of sun and an extension in front of this were you can sit in the sun. House was a fairly quick drive to Magnolia Springs and Fairhope which offer great restaurants and shopping. Douglas was very responsive to all my questions and made check in a breeze.

Breathtaking Sunsets

My family and I really enjoyed staying at the Kayak the Bay. It was very nice, clean, comfortable, and quiet with all the needed amenities. The master suite was very spacious and had an excellent view of the bay. Also had great views from the living and dining rooms. We really enjoyed sitting in the sunroom and on the deck admiring the beautiful bay. The pier was amazing! The host was very pleasant, hospitable, and responsive. We have been staying at bay houses for over 15 years, and this has been one of the best! Looking foward to returning!

Wonderful place to relax

I was there just a short time but enjoyed every minute. The dock gave it just that much more of A for me. Sitting on the dock of the bay was very relaxing. Wish I had more time to enjoy the kayaks.

Comfortable and Relaxing

The property was as described, albeit with some minor updates since the pictures were taken. Everything was clean and adequately maintained with one exception of a few dirty plates that were in the cupboard. These were obviously used and probably accidentally placed back in the cupboard instead of being washed first. The house pictures and description indicated a drip coffee maker with a grinder so we packed bean coffee. Only to discover it had been swapped out for a Keurig K cup maker which also required descaling the first morning before it would allow coffee to be made. I assume this was a time based requirement and no big deal to perform once we googled the descaling process. It just wasn’t expected on the first morning. There was also no garden hose outside for rinsing things off such as fishing equipment, water toys, etc.The dock is very nice and we spent a lot of time out there fishing, crabbing and watching the sunsets. The dock has an enclosed area which is nice in that it has a sink with running water and provides a place to put things overnight so you don’t have to carry stuff back and forth to the house. It also provides shade for the afternoon sun.All in all it is a nice property in a nice location and with only minor inconveniences and we would definitely stay here again.

Celebrating our Mothers 89th Birthday! We all enjoyed our stay. It was very peaceful and relaxing. Mama didn’t go out on the pier. Me and my sister did. Got a bit of sun. What made me happy was that they enjoyed themselves!Host Douglas was always available if or when needed! Thank you so much. Hope to come back with my husband!
