This property is one of (if not the) favorite places on Earth for our family. The home, view, and amenities are exquisite, and the owner is an absolute pleasure to work with. The home is always in perfect condition, and has everything we ever need plus special little touches. A true luxury experience, even better than staying at The Grand! Our favorite part is that the balconies, yard, and even the dock is fully enclosed and gated off, making it a very kid friendly environment while staying directly on the water! Honored to call this place our home away from home.
What a wonderful place to spend with family. Great time fishing and a convenient location to Fairhope and the coast.

Lovely house in a great location. Fantastic trip
We were a group of three and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house. It was well appointed and the management company was very responsive and had solid communication pre-arrival and during our stay. Would not hesitate to return if I'm in Fairhope again.
Beautiful location and comfortable accommodations! Highly recommend! We will definitely look for this property for future stays!! Owner was great to communicate and work with!

Perfect
The Reel Living cottage proved perfect for me and my family. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
The house was wonderful. Very clean and well appointed. The Bayfront location was great. Relaxing on the pier and the back porch was wonderful. We had a really good time. Loved all the Fairhope restaurants and shopping.
Had a wonderful week with family on Mobile Bay. The house was like a gold star hotel. Everything was clean and spacious. Soap, shampoo and conditioner in showers as well as hand soap was nice.

Great house. Great host
We spent 6 weeks at this house. Host was very attentive to our booking issues and our needs during our stay. Concierge was most attentive as well. The location and condition of house and pier is superb.

Perfect house on Mobile Bay
Reel Living was the perfect spot and house for our weekend in Fairhope. Booking and communication with Stephanie was very easy. The house was well stocked with basic laundry and kitchen supplies. Beautiful sunsets from the porch. Highly recommend this house.
We loved our time here! We had one issue with the crab trap not being there but as soon as I asked them about it, it was delivered to the house. Looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Thanks for your kind review... I'm so glad you enjoyed our home! Not sure what happened with the crab trap, but I'm happy we could accommodate your request quickly! I have an amazing team and we would love to host you again soon!
We had such a great stay at this Mobile Bay house! The views of the bay are absolutely beautiful, and we spent so much time just relaxing on the deck and watching the sunsets. The boat lift was a huge bonus and made it super easy to get out on the water whenever we wanted.The house itself was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Plenty of space to spread out, a well-stocked kitchen, and all the little touches that made it feel like home. We loved how easy it was to enjoy both quiet mornings with coffee by the water and fun afternoons out boating.Overall, this place was the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and amazing views. We’d definitely stay here again!

Reel Living
This is our second visit to Fairhope and again we chose to stay with Water & Wood. The property was perfect. The location, set up and atmosphere was amazing! Our hostess checked in frequently to make sure that everything was in order. It was the perfect place for our family weekend getaway. We will definitely be back!
We had an amazing time at the vacation house! It was the perfect size for our family get away. Even though the weather was not in our favor the entire time we still enjoyed the amazing bed swing, fishing off the covered dock, crab trapping, and the kids running around in the rain. The fenced in yard was great to have for our toddlers to run around and still feel safe. It was the perfect location to be on the water and close to town to enjoy nearby activities, stroll through Fairhope and go out to eat at the local restaurants. We even talked about the possibility of renting this location again in the future.

Peaceful Bayside Comfort
Five of us enjoyed this peaceful and charming home that is directly on the bay. We loved coffee at the end of the pier, reading a book on the porch daybed swing, and the twinkling patio lights that extend to the end of the pier. The beds were luxurious with ceiling fans to keep you cool.
Be home is away from the hustle and bustle, but a quick 15 minute drive to the amazing town of Fairhope. Host was lovely and very quick to respond. Would stay again!
