We booked this house for our annual girls trip with 12 women. The house was fantastic, the location was amazing and Karen was easy to get in touch with and responded within an hour- usually before that. Everyone had a wonderful time and loved the house. Thank you!

Perfect place for a family gathering!

We stayed at the Bayhouse Estate for a University of South Alabama graduation gathering. The home was beautiful and the perfect place for our family to share and make memories. The front porch was my favorite spot and the view was gorgeous!

One of the Best VRBO experiences!

The house was very clean and tidy and the bed and bath linens were fresh and clean and smelled lovely! The house was stocked very well and the host was easy to reach and quick to respond. The location was great and we enjoyed our walks through the neighborhood. Enjoyed the front porch and the firepit in the courtyard.

Wonderful home!

Our experience at the Bayhouse Estate was wonderful! The home is spacious, beautiful, and clean! The owner was kind enough to let us check in early so we had enough time to get ready for our son’s rehearsal dinner. The location is ideal with the park across the street. Don’t hesitate to book this hidden gem!

Wonderful Retreat

My department team attended a conference in Mobile - this was our second year to stay at The Bayhouse Estate. There were seven of us and the accommodations were spacious with plenty of common areas for meeting and team building! It was convenient to Mobile but nice to return to a relaxing atmosphere each evening. Also plenty to do in Fairhope. We look forward to next year!

Fairhope Bay House

This is the most wonderful bay house in Fairhope. Mornings on the front porch are the best smooth soothing sunrise experience anyone can dream of. The front swing is just like my grandmothers from my memory many years ago ( without the squeak squeak because it is with a rope that is smooth and doesn’t squeak!). If you need a 5 bedroom place in Fairhope, choose this house. It’s simply the best!!

Beautiful Bay House

The house was very nice and decorated well. The location is perfect, across the street from the bay and a short walk to the pier in Fairhope. The parking in front of the house was bad because several smaller houses in the back were filled and we all fought for space. Small housekeeping notes: rugs in all baths were not on floor but in closets, dirty dishes left in dishwasher. No ice, but ice with freezer burn were in the freezer. All in all, it was a good visit for Mardi Gras and slept 13 comfortably. Kids were on pull out beds or trundle bed, but comfortable.

Outstanding accommodations!

Couldn’t have been any better. We had the entire family stay with 8 adults and 4 children and had plenty of room. Very spacious with a bathroom for every BR. The front porch overlooking the park and bay was a hit. We spent 80% of our time on the front porch visiting and watching time pass. Parking was never an issue with 3 cars. You could easily park 5-6 cars with no issues. We highly recommend this property.

Girls’ reunion

Fairhope is the perfect town for a girls’ getaway and we found the ideal home base for our adventures! The location could not have been better for its lovely setting across from Mobile Bay and proximity to downtown shopping and restaurants. The 1907 house has been beautifully renovated to a 5 bedroom, 6 bath home with exquisite floors, mid-century furnishings and gorgeous artwork. The porch is so comfortable for morning coffee or afternoon happy hour and we honestly spent most of our time there. Sunsets are as pretty as anywhere in Fairhope. I will certainly spread the word to friends and look forward to returning.
