What a cute cottage, plenty of room, well stocked, nice linens, clean and close proximity to all Fairhope has to offer. Enjoyed sitting in the screened porch listening to the birds and drinking coffee. Afternoons on the front porch with a glass of wine to settle down from a busy day. Will definitely recommend to friends!

Host is very respnsive and attentive. there are 3 kinds of coffee makers there, PLUS for there are pods ready for you to use. Pantry spices are readily available which makes it so very nice to not have to do a grocery haul of everything to be able to stay comfortably. Furniture is comfortable and a lot of it if you have a large group. backyard is a good size. parking is easy and beds are comfortable. Easy location to walk to downtown or the bay. highly recommend

Fun in the Fruits & Nuts

Came to Fairhope to celebrate a birthday and have get-away time with mothers and daughters. Lovely house, great porch-sitting, lazy coffee mornings, retailing, very fine dining out. Altogether a lovely weekend.

Accommodating Beyond Expectations

We had the best experience with our stay! Betsy is the epitome of a great host!!! Anything you need if she doesn't already provide it she'll help you figure out how to get it. Her home is as warm and welcoming as she is...couldn't ask for a better place or host.

Wonderful Getaway

Our little family enjoyed our stay so much. The cottage has two cozy porches, that are so relaxing! The host was helpful and available every step of the way. The house was clean and ready for us. We opted to rent a golf cart for the stay. We did not have to get in the car the entire time. We loved Fairhope & the location of this home.

About the host

Hosted by Betsy

Host profile image
I love the beach, the slopes, and my hometown of New Orleans. My family and I live in Atlanta, which is where we call home, but of every place on earth, Fairhope is my favorite!

Why they chose this property

Fairhope has always been a special place for me and my family. I grew up going to camp on Mobile Bay and always wanted to own a piece of this heavenly and magical place that I always referred to as "my favorite place in the world."

What makes this property unique

This home is unique because it was renovated as a coastal bay house. It is in the most charming and one-of-a-kind neighborhoods in Fairhope and on one of the quietest streets. The screened-in porches are my favorite place to relax other than walking to the bay daily to watch the sunsets, which are like no other in the world.
