About this property

Revitalized historic Fairhope hotel

A historical city landmark, the Summit Street Inn provides you with a unique opportunity to experience charming downtown Fairhope. Originally built in 1925 as the New Fairhope Hotel, the Inn has been tastefully restored and preserved. Situated between the Fairhope pier and the iconic Fairhope clock this location is unbeatable. The Inn is walking distance to downtown shops, eateries, art galleries, community events, the Fairhope Pier and beach, parks and walking trails on Mobile Bay. Parking is provided onsite for approximately four cars. There is a small luxury boutique under the roof, as well as service rooms, which are separate from the private residential space. We operate Tuesday-Friday 11am-5pm and are happy to assist our guests and answer questions and help find services as needed.

Girl’s Getaway
This house was the perfect location and size for a girl’s getaway weekend. The house is a block away from town and the pier is a quick walk away. We had a wonderful time!

Disappointing
There’s no sense of privacy with a store inside the house as well as an office. Very overpriced.

The Perfect Setting
The Summit Inn is the perfect place if you’re looking for the Fairhope experience. Downtown Fairhope is literally two blocks away. The Inn itself is charming and well maintained. You don’t rent the entire home, as would normally be the case with VRBO, so you don’t enjoy 100% privacy, but it wasn’t a major issue. All in all it was a great visit at The Summit Inn.

Great location and the best host!
Perfect location for walking to everything in downtown Fairhope. There were 8 women attending the Fairhope arts and crafts festival and we could not have been more comfortable and pleased with this property. Will definitely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley Springer

Host profile image
I love to travel anywhere--a day at the beach or a quick trip to New Orleans--are easy favorites. I also travel to Europe twice a year to source unique items for my boutique. I am a Southern lady that finds simple pleasure cooking for family and friends. I enjoy trying new restaurants in my area, and on my travels. I use Yelp, Trip Advisor and various apps, even if I am at home. Fairhope won't disappoint and I look forward to sharing this wonderful town with you.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location--and the rich historical background of this special property.
So stay in a treasured example of Fairhope's past--once a great location, always a great location!

What makes this property unique

Extensive open-air covered porch lined with comfortable rocking chairs that give way to views of downtown Fairhope. Sit back and relax with your beverage of choice any time of day. Or walk down to the Fairhope Pier on beautiful Mobile Bay for great walking trails and beach living, and where you can catch a dreamy view of sunset over the bay!
