Birthday fishing trip

I rented this cabin for a birthday gift to I rented this cabin as a birthday gift for my Grandson’s 13th birthday. We loved it! The location was perfect. The canoes were a special treat. He and his dad even canoed to Big Daddy’s Grill! The cabin was very comfortable and provided all the basics that we needed for our stay. We will be back!

The mattress and bed/s are not comfortable. Double bed/s are small! Queens would be better. A few things were broken when we arrived: patio chair, refrigerator drawers, loose toilet seat. On an upnote, the location is stellar! Views of the river, and being on the water is priceless!

Great location, good pier fishing.

Kitchen not very well equiped, bring your own skillets and larger pots. Beds are not comfortable, television is difficult and had to replace remote batteries. Host was easy to get a hold of and did bring a toaster for us. The front door lock is quite quirky. Place was fairly clean, bathroom had only one hand towel and kitchen had no dish cloths.

AWESOME!!

Overall the stay was FIVE STAR!! Hosts are precious and easy to communicate with!! My only 1 star, was the beds, the two queen beds were not comfortable. We were only there for three nights so we just made it work, but I would hope that the hosts could update the comfort of their bedding where adults would be sleeping!! LOL Its no fun getting up sore all over and having to take care of kiddos LOL!! Other than that.... It was perfect and we would definitely stay again!

Charming place

We had a great time here. The decks were lovely and the house had everything we needed. The house had enough seating for my extended family as we met up before going out to dinner. Check in and check out were easy. The only thing that disappointed was that the dock had no way that we could find to put the kayaks in the water. Perhaps the river level was low. Remember to bring your mosquito repellent, and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

So cute!

Loved the very well stocked cabin! Everything we needed was provided. We loved swimming and kayaking on the river. We took a drive over to OWA and the beach but enjoyed the cabin just as much! It was perfect for our girls trip!

Perfect dog friendly river retreat

I rented this charming river house for 3 weeks in February. It served as my base to visit friends living in Fairhope and to host friends escaping the snow and cold of Michigan's upper peninsula. It worked out perfectly for both! I also brought my lab mix and the fenced yard was wonderful. Easy to get groceries and things on the property from the car without having to worry about the dog escaping. The upper deck over the river was so wonderful for morning coffee and evening star gazing. My friends were equally happy and impressed. Stephen and his wife are wonderful hosts and gave me suggestions for places to adventure with my dog. Very convenient to fun of Fairhope and the Gulf beaches while enjoying the quiet of the Fish River. I love it and look forward to returning.

Close to venue for wedding

Both sets of parents and a grandmother rented so we were pretty close to the venue and could have our dogs with us. Beautiful view! Unfortunately, tropical storm caused flooding of road and parking area so we had to leave sooner than expected. We all said that we wished we had the time and weather to sit outside and drink in the view. Owner was fantastic about communication and keeping us apprised on rising waters.
