About this property
Fairhope 3BR house. 4min to Grand Hotel, 7min to Dwntown Fhope, 44min to Gulf
This three-bedroom cottage is ideal for wedding guests, visitors coming to see family, or anyone spending time in Fairhope. You’re just 4 minutes from the Grand Hotel and 7 minutes from downtown Fairhope with its shopping, dining, and events.
Just a quick heads-up: this is an older home built in the early 1980s. Some updates have been made (including kitchen counters, ceilings, and doors), while other features — such as the floors — are original and show normal wear consistent with the home’s age. The home is priced accordingly and offers strong value for a clean, well-located three-bedroom house in Fairhope.
The cottage has a back porch, a large backyard, and privacy fencing on both sides. The entire place is yours — the owners do not live on or next to the property.
What makes this property special?
Consistently highly rated by guests.
This home has earned exceptional reviews for cleanliness, comfort, and location, placing it among the highest-rated vacation homes guests stay in
Privacy comes first.
Many short-term rentals have owners living on the property or nearby. We don’t. The entire place is yours, and the owners do not live on or next to the property. We also do not have video cameras on the premises. You won’t feel watched or checked on — just comfortable and at ease.
Close to Fairhope, without feeling crowded.
You’re minutes from downtown Fairhope and the Grand Hotel (we host many wedding guests), yet the setting feels peaceful and relaxed. A horse field sits behind the property, and the backyard is spacious and private.
A TV area that actually makes sense.
Comfortable seating for the whole group and a TV mounted at eye level — not high on the wall. Fast Wi-Fi makes streaming easy after a long day visiting family or attending events.
Beds matter.
Two bedrooms feature king-size beds, which guests especially appreciate after full days of wedding activities, family gatherings, or exploring Fairhope.
Fully equipped kitchen & laundry.
The kitchen includes a gas range and everything needed to prepare meals at home. A washer and gas dryer are available and convenient for longer stays.
Pet-free home.
No pets means no concerns about pet dander or allergies.
Plenty of hot water.
A newer oversized gas water heater comfortably handles multiple showers — helpful when several guests are getting ready at once.
Cleanliness matters.
We take cleanliness seriously and work hard to keep the home comfortable and welcoming for every stay.
Extras for families and groups.
Large kitchen table, K-Cup coffee maker with coffee and creamer provided, covered putting green, Pictionary with dry-erase board, bocce ball, croquet, and kids’ board games.
Easy dining and groceries.
Char 32 is within walking distance across the street at the Point Clear Tennis Club. A brand-new Publix is less than five minutes away with no stoplights on the drive.
Bottom line
If you’re visiting Fairhope for a wedding, family time, or an extended stay — and want a clean, comfortable, budget-friendly home with privacy and a great location — this cottage is a solid fit.

I am an experienced VRBO host ..who loves what I am doing. Its fun trying to provide the best customer experience possible.
My two goals:To provide an 5 star experience for our guests..I want our guests to feel like they are staying at a professional run establishment. The second is to learn and constantly evolve to provide a better guest experience.
My wife and I have lived in Fairhope for almost all of our lives. We know the area real well. Anything from beaches, shopping, restaurants, hiking, boating, fishing, site seeing, etc., we can provide recommendations.
I have the personalty where I like helping people. During your stay, if you need anything or have any questions, please never feel like you are bothering me. I have done close to 600 short term rental stays(the highest in this area) and I cannot think of one experience where I felt bothered by a guest...I am pretty much always happy to help.

Why they chose this property
The value you are getting for your money is real good. Sleeps 5 people. This place is all yours. Great back porch and large screened in area overlooking a horse pasture.
At night sitting on the back porch, with the patio lights off, it is pitch black dark..great for star gazing. Even though you are only 7 minutes from downtown Fairhope, it feels like you are miles out in the country.

What makes this property unique
This is a modest house that was built in the early 80's. Some parts have been renovated, like the kitchen counters, but other parts are original, like the flooring. 1200 sq feet
Exactly one mile from the cottage is a public bay access point that starts a great walking trail that goes along the bay. Char 32 fine dinning restaurant is directly across the street within walking distance.
