Surprise Landing Cottage is in the quiet, secluded area south of Fairhope known as Battles Wharf.
We are located 1 mile north of Marriott's Grand Hotel and Lakewood's Robert Trent Jones Golf Course on Mobile Bay. Several other golf courses are nearby. We are a short drive to historic Mobile, the Battleship Alabama and the white sandy beaches of the Alabama Gulf coast.
The cottage is fully furnished and you would have use of our pier on beautiful Mobile Bay. Come and enjoy our spectacular sunsets.
There is a walking/biking trail practically at the back door and Fairhope's charming little shops are a short drive or bike away. The area is known for its many seafood restaurants on the Causeway and other local favorites nearby. Tanger's Outlet Center in Foley is a short 30 minute drive for great bargains and The Eastern Shore Center in Spanish Fort offers a huge variety of shopping and dining. Grocery stores, pharmacies, and retail shopping are a ten minute drive.
Fairhope's Arts and Crafts Festival takes place every spring and there are always local artists working in Fairhope. Mobile's Mardi Gras and Fairhope's own Mardi Gras celebrations attract many visitors who like our low-keyed style of celebrating. Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve is a unique opportunity to learn about Coastal Alabama.
Whether you are looking for golfing, art, walking, biking, tennis, boating, fishing, crabbing, shopping, discovering coastal South Alabama or just plain relaxing, all are available for you to enjoy year round at Surprise Landing Cottage.

Great location, facility and hosts

I stayed here in June, 2011. I found the cottage wanting for nothing. It truly was a home away from home, minus the distractions of feeling like there were chores, errands or tasks that I needed to complete. It was as relaxing as I could ask for and within a nice walk to the municipal pier with shops and restaurants along the walk. The location allowed me to make a day trip to Pensacola or Mobile. Not only would I highly recommend the cottage, I am hoping to return. The hosts were wonderful, communicating quickly and thouroughly. My deposit was home before I was. The price was very reasonable. The people I met in Fairhope were extremely friendly and helpful. The town was a great place to stroll, dine and shop. Don't miss the museum and the bookstore Page and Palette. I've decided I was born on the wrong side of the country and wish retirement was sooner.
Owner response:Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed yourself and we enjoyed meeting you. Hope you will return South some day.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
