About the host

Hosted by Betsy

I love the beach, the slopes, and my hometown of New Orleans. My family and I live in Atlanta, which is where we call home.

Why they chose this property

Fairhope has always been a special place for me and my family. I grew up going to camp on Mobile Bay and always wanted to own a piece of this heavenly and magical place that I always referred to as "my favorite place in the world."

What makes this property unique

This home is unique because it was renovated as a coastal bay house. It is in the most charming and one-of-a-kind neighborhoods in Fairhope and on one of the quietest streets. The screened-in porches are my favorite place to relax other than walking to the bay daily to watch the sunsets, which are like no other in the world.
