We chose Fairhope for our annual Girls' trip. We could not have picked a better house to rent! The Cottage is located in a very quiet area of town. You can spend the day relaxing in the wonderful screened-in porch reading a great novel, have some wine on the pier watching sunsets or drive to do some great shopping and eat in wonderful restaurants. The cottage is very clean and beds are comfortable. Owner has created a very cozy, welcoming home. Her attention to detail is evident thru out. The kitchen was well stocked. The amenities were great. Cottage has a lot to offer and you can't go wrong picking this one.
