Brief Bay Getaway

My husband and I drove over from Biloxi for a quick birthday trip. The cottage was absolutely perfect for us. My husband loves the water and the views are unmatched. We didn’t utilize much of it, but the house seemed stocked with what ever you could need from toiletries, towels, to cooking ware. We watched the sunset from the dock while my husband cast his fishing pole. It was a picturesque birthday evening for him. We will definitely be booking again.

Covered Pier Feb 2025

The Property Mgr ,Beth Ann, was always available on short notice to stop in or answer our questions. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the utensils that were needed.The house and bedding were very clean. The gated deck was great for having a dog. Fantastic sunsets and you could see barge traffic in the distance on Mobile Bay. Check out Madi Gra dates next year as a parade went right by the house...so much fun. Fairhope has so many shops and restaurants, many are dog friendly, along with a nice shaded dog park. Definitely can spend 2 weeks in this quaint town without having to go to Gulf Shores...Nice farmers market in Foley on Sat mornings and fresh shrimp right off the boats in Bon Soucor.

Wonderful stay on the bay!

We really enjoyed our stay, thank you to Beth! The house was in great shape and our kids really enjoyed the dock. It was great having a gate on the fenced in dock for added piece of mind with young kids. We’ll be back!

Bay house

We enjoyed our stay! charming little bay house. Our stay would have been much better though if the owners would have upgraded a few things!! The ice maker was not working, The tub drain not working, grass was knee deep and needed cutting therefore I stepped in an ant bed because I couldn’t see it while taking my dog out. , kitchen pots and pans need upgrading, grills were rusted iver and unusable.

Great Bay Stay

Property was nice and clean, comfortable and stocked with all we needed for our stay. Spent most of our time on the pier and caught croakers, catfish, redfish, sting rays, mullet, crabs, and a dog shark. Slept well and had a restful stay. Even got in on a small jubilee, a real bonus. Highly recommend for small families or couples.

Vacation With Family

We found the property very pleasant to be at and everything was available as advertised. Spent a wonderful 6 nights and pier was great to have available for fishing or just sitting and watching the fish jump and birds fly. Hope to be able to return again. Would encourage others to check it out. Thanks for letting us enjoy your home.

Quick stay

Stayed for a sports tournament in Foley. About 25-30min from our venue. House was great. View and dock were awesome. Wish we got more time to stay at and enjoy the house. We were not there much due to our hectic weekend schedule but would definitely stay again.

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect place to get away from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This quaint cottage is the perfect size for a couple or small family. You can enjoy the bounties of bay life with a pier, crab traps and a 25ft fenced and covered deck at the end of the pier. Enjoy glorious sunsets on our outdoor sofa. We also have a picnic table under the covered deck at the end of the pier and a charcoal grill on the deck near the house. There are two kayaks that are available for exploring the bay.

What makes this property unique

Our pets are part of our family and we are a pet friendly property. With that being said, our furry friends also leave behind evidence of their stay. Please keep in mind that not all guests will be bringing pets. Extra cleaning measures are required to properly clean and remove excess pet hair from the premises before the next guests arrive. There will be a fee to cover the time and expense involved with cleaning up after pets. We appreciate your understanding of this fee.
