★"My husband and I have stayed at our fair share of airbnbs and this has by far been the best one. It’s so beautifully decorated, we felt like we were staying in a friends home instead of an ikea furnished shell. The porch was our little sanctuary with breathtaking views.

Everyone’s favorite room is the screened porch and it's the perfect spot to watch stunning views of the sunset over Mobile Bay. It runs the entire length of the house and is furnished with a large dining table that seats six, an oversized cushioned porch swing, and a pair of vintage lounge chairs. It overlooks not just Mobile Bay but also a boat basin full of turtles, frogs, fish, and the occasional alligator. We keep several pairs of binoculars on the porch so you can get a closer look.
Two pairs of french doors open onto the porch from the great room. It has vaulted ceilings, a nice fireplace that is just for decoration and a spiral staircase that leads to the loft. The loft is a perfect retreat for the young and nimble. It is furnished with two twin xl beds and a window seat with a view of the bay.
There is a little office off of the great room that has a small desk perched in front of a window giving great views of the bay. It’s a great place to work on your next novel, or even your first!
The kitchen has a full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and gas stove with an oven and its full of pots, pans, dishes and utensils. The laundry room has a stacked washer/dryer.
One of the bathrooms needed updating, so of course we removed everything down to the studs. Now this bathroom has a brand new tiled shower, new toilet and new vanity with a wall mounted faucet. The second bathroom has a tub/shower that has been updated with a hand shower, more contemporary plumbing and a new toilet. It already had a nice white tile surround and cast iron tub. Both bathrooms are ensuite. Each of the two bedrooms has a California king size bed. The rear bedroom has a set of french doors that open onto the screened porch. The bedding is linen from West Elm.
We've installed an EV charger - It is a 24 amp 5.7kw charger and the J1772 Wall Connector is compatible with most North American electric vehicles. Tesla vehicles will require an additional SAE J1772 Charging Adapter to charge, which is included with Tesla vehicles upon delivery.
We decided purchase the home where we want to retire and for now, we’re sharing it with you! It’s just three doors down from our current house. Yes - we love the neighborhood so much that we bought another house just down the street. The home, designed by local architect Douglas Kearley, was built as a replacement for his family's original summer house that was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. He sited the home perfectly to capture gorgeous sunset views from the back porch and all of the shared spaces in the home!
We've got room for two cars in the driveway - Please don't park on the grass! You can explore the neighborhood on foot, but the real star of the show is Mobile Bay - We recommend taking a walk on the beach at least as far as Red Gully (to the south) to get a feel for the natural beauty of Mobile Bay!
We live down the street so we're always available! When we can, we like to greet guests in person and give a quick tour of the house.
Our home, located on Mobile Bay, has stunning views of the sunset from the screened porch which runs across the entire back of the house. We love our quiet neighborhood on Mobile Bay. Montrose, Alabama, a registered historic district, which is nestled between Fairhope and Daphne on Scenic Hwy 98. You'll see kids headed down to the beach on bicycles with buckets and fishing poles and neighbors casting shrimp nets hoping for a jubilee. You can walk along the bay front beach to the north or south as far as your feet will take you. The sunset here is fantastic over the water. From the expansive 12x40' screened porch we have an extraordinary view.
There's room for two cars in the driveway.

This cozy property was the perfect home away from home for a quick, two-day getaway with my husband. Our hosts were extremely hospitable and easy to work with. Dave showed up on day one to give us a quick and friendly tour, which helped take the guess work out of where to find light switches and modern conveniences. He had an amazing coffee maker and even had creamer waiting on us in the fridge! He pretty much had all you need for a short or long stay and the place was immaculate and clean! Definitely check out Dave’s restaurant recommendations - they didn’t disappoint! Our favorite restaurants were Southwood Kitchen, Pearl and Sunset Pointe. The back porch was our favorite part of the home. We pretty much spent all of our time there and the sunsets were incredible! We can’t forget a shout out to the good Lord for the spectacular show!

This place was perfect! The house was immaculate and everything we could possibly want. We had never stayed at a property like this before and I can say I'm spoiled being this close to the beach. Dave was absolutely the best to deal with, he came over when we arrived and gave us a short tour and checked in with us later to see if we needed any supplies. Check in and check out was a breeze. The sunsets were amazing and best viewed from the couch swing on the porch. Be sure to hang around after dark for the frog symphony. 10/10 recommend.

The House was adorable, great, clean screened in porch ( upstairs only) wonderful.Problem- there is no bay beach front access from the bayside of this property or the house !!Instead right in front of the porch side of house facing what should be the view of the bay is a city drain off pond of shallow, Thank you ma’am stagnant water, totally overgrown full of debris overgrown and not maintained.Beside the property and fence you have to go through a gate on the side of the property to a path that has signage grass, ( and a variety of wildlife) that flows into the bay.We had no area to play or sit and enjoy the area from the yard. Only the upstairs porch.The Actual access to a very small section of sandy beach on the bay is actually a path you have to walk down beside the house and this stagnant water/pond which is an access pass for the public or neighborhood area, which others from the area also use. From the front porch facing the bay you actually cannot even see the bay in front of of you., maybe views to the sides.Objection to this is that the pictures shown on the website did not indicate or describe that thisPond area was so close to house and between the house and bay and unkept!Owner/host was very nice and while a refund was offered when we arrive -when you book a vacation and need to get away with your family,You have a car packed with food and kids - where are you suppose to go at 4:00 pm in the day?

Fabulous, convenient, and simply beautiful
Where do I start? The house was spotless, the bedding / linens were amazing (fabric, texture, quality - all of it), and the home is decorated beautifully. Dave and Jenn provide more than basic necessities, including coffee and creamer (and it’s actually good coffee - not a pod). Plenty of dishwasher pods and laundry pods to use, along with paper towels, trash bags, cleaning supplies, and toilet paper—way more than what is usually at a rental home. We had a child under 2 and will stay here again for every reason under the sun (they even have kid books for bedtime!). Even though the home is inviting and comfy - very coastal living magazine - we spent most of our time outside on the screened in patio on what we called "the swinging bed” overlooking the bay. There are stylish cushions on every chair outside that almost force you to take a nap. Steps from the bay with toys and chairs to use - perfect entertainment for a child and relaxation for parents. There’s a little room with a desk facing the bay if you need to get some work done like I did - of course, the WiFi was flawless like everything else. This office space also fits a pack n play and has an air vent so perfect for a little one. We had several delivery orders with no issues. Can’t say enough positive things about this property and the hosts. Just what we needed and thankful we found it. If you’re hesitant, book it! You won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful retreat in Daphne
We stayed here for two nights on our way to New Orleans. Jen and Dave were awesome hosts, greeting us when we arrived and sharing lots of recommendations for what to do in the area. It rained the weekend we were there but that didn’t stop us from enjoying Fairhope and Daphne. The house is clean and modern with comfortable beds and a huge screened-in porch (where we spent most of our time). Our girls loved the loft and the circular staircase. Had the weather been nicer, we would have taken advantage of the kayaks and beach gear. We were seven minutes from everything: restaurants, custard shops, bookstores, grocery stores, wine shops, and more. Highly recommend!

A Perfect Getaway on Mobile Bay
Our recent weekend stay at a this property on Mobile Bay exceeded all expectations. From the moment we booked, the owner’s communication was nothing short of exceptional. They were responsive, helpful, and ensured every detail of our stay was seamless.
The house itself was perfectly lovely—immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and well-appointed with all the comforts of home. It was clear the owners put a lot of care into creating a welcoming and relaxing environment.
The location was truly ideal. Nestled right on the bay, we enjoyed stunning water views and easy access to local attractions while still feeling tucked away in a peaceful retreat.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a memorable stay on Mobile Bay. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Perfect Long Weekend
I've traveled to Baldwin County several times with my family, but wanted to stay somewhere special to celebrate my birthday. I am so happy to have found this gem of a home, as my family definitely had a memorable time. The weather was beautiful, and I spent most of my time while in the home sitting on the porch swing. We enjoyed nightly sunsets over the bay, while relaxing on the porch. The home is eclectically decorated, which gave the home character and an element of fun. Our teenage daughter stayed in the other main floor bedroom, and loved having a king bed to herself. The bed linens and pillows were very comfortable. Water pressure is great, and the bathrooms were nicely appointed with toiletries by Public Goods. I made several breakfast in the kitchen, and found it to be nicely appointed. The hosts (Dave and Jenn) were wonderfully communicative, and made sure that my family was informed as to the check in process well in advance. Dave stopped by to familiarize us with the lights and heating/cooling system soon after we arrived. Another nice touch: The hosts provided great coffee and even creamer in the refrigerator. The location is fantastic- as we were quickly and easily able to get to Daphne, downtown Fairhope, and even Mobile, during our stay. Highly recommend taking a walk along the bay that runs in front of the property. Hope to stay here again some day!
