Pretty and clean. I feel like a new mattress might be needed. But that is subjective.

We had such an amazing stay at Fish River Cottage. John is really lovely and very friendly.
He was a great host and gave some great local tips about places to eat, things to do in the area etc. It was our honeymoon and he was very sweet about it!
The cottage is amazing - very clean, quiet and surrounded by nature. Fairhope is such a pretty town and has great places to eat. Shopping outlets and the beach are within a 35 minute drive.
We really enjoyed our stay in Fairhope and would stay here again!

This was our first southern journey after retiring, and we could not have been more pleased. John and Patti are fantastic hosts, and can offer several suggestions for dining and for exploring the entire gulf shores area. The cottage itself was perfect. Very clean, well equipped, and private. Our dog absolutely loved the large fenced in yard.
The Fairhope area is spectacular. Amazing sunsets on Mobile bay, wonderful small town atmosphere, great restaurants, and everyone we met was friendly and helpful. Our only regret is that we left too soon, and returned to Michigan to be greeted by more snow and cold. The best recommendation I can offer is that my wife and I have already booked our return for next winter,

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Fish River Cottage. Mr. John and his family were more than accommodating. The cottage is perfect and has all the amenities you would need. We’re looking forward to our next stay at the Fish River Cottage.

The cottage was nice & felt somewhat secluded. It was nicely kept & comfortable. The owner John was very kind, fruendly & helpful. It was clean, however we recommend dusting of the furniture etc. Our family has allergies & although clean, there was dust on some things.

Fairhope is a quaint southern downtown area that is modeled after Carmel, California. It has many attractions each month. Things to do include: Art festivals, Hangout Festival, Songwriter's Festival, Shrimp Festival, Mardi Gras, First Friday of every month has an Art Walk in downtown Fairhope, free movies shown outdoors in the streets of Fairhope, Fairhope Film Festival, Polo at the Point and many others. There is always something going on in Fairhope that will be fun for the whole family. The unique shops within Fairhope makes for interesting and enjoyable shopping. We have some of the best restaurants around. Take a walk on the bay, grab some fresh local seafood and if you are lucky catch one of our beautiful and memorable sunsets.
