We love this place and stay here every time we come to the area. It’s always well maintained and very clean. Host is responsive in a timely manner. We’ll be back!
This cottage is exactly as advertised- and more. Lovely linens also made our stay like home away from home! Stocked kitchen made creating meals easy. One of the absolute BEST places we’ve ever stayed!
This place was perfect. Great location to drive to surrounding areas and visit. Not far to Mobile or the Gulf Shores. Also the best shower ever. Water pressure was awesome.
Lovely cottage as described. Comfy beds and linens. Lots of storage, nice bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen!Wonderful host and communication.Definitely worth the money. I would do it again.
We’ve stayed in a number of VRBO “excellent” residences and we always look for places out in the woods and close to small towns. This site met all our expectations. Great for a couple in their 70s! Great restaurants within ten miles.
This place was impeccably clean. Check-in was easy. It’s about 18 minutes from Fairhope Ave in a very quiet area. Kitchen is very well equipped and the 2 bedrooms and bathrooms allow for privacy. It was completely comfortable and we would stay again.
This cottage is quiet, and peaceful with many trees, flowers and birds outside. Inside is nicely furnished and spotlessly clean. Great shower with plenty of hot water. Fully stocked kitchen. You feel as if you are home. Can't wait to return!
We loved everything about the property!!! It was immaculate. Everything was as described and the front porch was amazing and perfect for hanging out when it rained in the morning. The only knocks I could come up with is I wish there was a grill to cook out on, I wish there would have been a tv in the bedrooms for when we wanted to chill in bed in the morning and I wish there would have been more toilet paper provided. 4 rolls for 4 ppl for 5 days ran out fast and we had to go get our own. Other then those minor things the house was perfect and close to several beaches, restaurants, and fun things to do!!! 5****** stars all day.
Stayed 3 enjoyable days at the rental which was very well stocked and equipped. Neighborhood was very quiet. Would definitely rent again and would not hesitate to recommend to others. The home was very clean and not lacking of anything. Very roomy.
place had everything you need it is quiet clean and relaxing close to whatever you want to do or not do. you have access to the washer and dryer which is a huge bonus
only suggestion is to provide a few more pillows. that is all
I loved the house, it was perfect, beautiful, clean and everything we needed. The location was great, not in the middle of fuss/traffic but easy drives to everything. We visited the cute town of Fairhope. Ate a Bill-ee's which was ABSOLUTELY great and got to see a great band, Went to Fairhope brewing company and Hwy31 breweries (my husband is a home brewer so that was a must). Even went down to a nice full beach day at Gulf Shores and visited Big Beach brewery as well as at at the Sloop, that food was excellent too! All the drive times were 30 mins or less to these places, and we hit NO TRAFFIC while there on the weekend. It could not have been better. The front porch sitting was so relaxing and peaceful too. Loved it and would stay again for sure! Thank you!
My husband and I were not disappointed. Everything was clean, comfortable beds and the furniture lovely and cottage was tastefully decorated. Our dog, Dixie enjoyed walks there. Good place to get back and relax. Time included trip to the Naval Air Museum enjoyed 3 hours there. Visit in Fairhope- Sandra’s sandwich shop tasty sandwiches and friendly service. The Fairhope Museum, was a nice surprise. A Christmas store with special ornaments, and many other finds in town. Not far to the beach.
This cottage was perfect for us-sparkling clean, well maintained, stocked with everything you could possibly need, comfortable beds and an awesome shower. Lots of beautiful flowers and trees and an outside porch swing. We had a maintenance issue shortly after arriving. The owner was very responsive and had it fixed immediately. The location is very quiet and peaceful, yet you have easy access to dining, shopping, beaches and other activities. We have already booked another stay in the fall.

This cottage is lovely and the location is quiet, yet Routes 32, 98 and 181 are convenient for getting to the Fairhope area and other popular areas. We thoroughly enjoyed our month long stay. The porch swing was our afternoon spot after sightseeing. Debra and Myles are great hosts and made sure our stay was enjoyable. We highly recommend this home away from home!
