Accommodating Beyond Expectations

We had the best experience with our stay! Betsy is the epitome of a great host!!! Anything you need if she doesn't already provide it she'll help you figure out how to get it. Her home is as warm and welcoming as she is...couldn't ask for a better place or host.

We had a wonderful family getaway for a long weekend at this property. We had so much space for the 5 of us. Beautifully decorated and everything you need in a rental. Our kids didn’t want to leave the house on our last day. We look forward to coming back to stay!!

Fairhope time with family

The place was incredible. We absolutely loved sitting on the front porch and watching the birds and squirrels. The contact with the property manager was so easy and she responded quickly.

Wonderful Getaway

Our little family enjoyed our stay so much. The cottage has two cozy porches, that are so relaxing! The host was helpful and available every step of the way. The house was clean and ready for us. We opted to rent a golf cart for the stay. We did not have to get in the car the entire time. We loved Fairhope & the location of this home.

Perfect place for our annual girl trip

The house was very clean and exactly as described. The porches were so perfect for playing games, sitting and talking or just relaxing. If I could give a 6 for “communication with property owner” , I would. We had no problems but Betsymade it more than clear that she was available if we needed anything.
