House Rules

RENTAL AGREEMENT & DAMAGE DEPOSIT To protect both you and the property, a short Rental Agreement is required for all stays — this is standard practice for professionally managed rentals. Please sign within 48 hours of booking, or within 4 hours for reservations made within 48 hours of check-in. Your check-in instructions will be sent as soon as it's complete. A refundable security hold of up to $500 will be placed on your card on file upon check in. This is a temporary authorization, not a charge. In our experience, it's a non-event — the hold releases automatically after checkout and guests never have to think about it. GENERAL RULES Minimum age to rent: 27 No smoking indoors | Vaping permitted | No pets | No parties or events Please do not move furniture between floors or household items between units — up to $500 fee may apply Quiet Hours: 10:00 PM – 7:00 AM SMOKING Outside smoking permitted. Vaping is fine indoors. PROHIBITED ITEMS No glitter or confetti No tape, thumbtacks, or nails on walls or doors PLUMBING Septic system — toilet paper only, please. KITCHEN Garbage disposal: rinse residue only — no food scraps or grease Use trivets for hot pans to protect countertops PARKING Left side of carport or anywhere logical in the gravel driveway. Please keep off the grass. SECURITY Two Ring doorbells record video and audio 24/7 at both front entrances. WILDLIFE & EXTERIOR DOORS We're nestled next to protected forest with Gulf access — the wildlife is one of the best things about this property. Please keep exterior doors closed to prevent palmetto bugs and the occasional crab from wandering in. CHECKOUT Please follow the provided checkout instructions. Thank you for being a great guest.

Neighborhood

The property sits on a navigable canal in a quiet woodland community 2.1 miles south of Fairhope — close enough to everything, removed enough to feel like you've genuinely gotten away. Fairhope itself is one of the Gulf Coast's most beloved small towns — flower-lined streets, a walkable downtown filled with independent boutiques, art galleries, and acclaimed restaurants, and a pier that locals gather at every evening to watch the sun sink into Mobile Bay. The Hope Farm, Sunset Pointe at Fly Creek Marina, Panini Pete's beignets, Page & Palette bookstore — it's the kind of town guests discover on day one and immediately start planning a return trip. From the property: downtown Fairhope is 15–20 minutes, Gulf Shores beaches are 35 minutes, and the public boat launch is 3 minutes away — putting Mobile Bay, the Fish River, and the Gulf all within easy reach by water. The surrounding state forest means the neighbors are herons, osprey, and the occasional land crab. It's a rare thing — true seclusion with a charming town just down the road.

Guest Access

Full access to entire property and both levels of the duplex.

We loved our stay at Sheri’s. Our group of six longtime friends—all celebrating milestone birthdays this year—had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful, spotless, and the kitchen was well equipped, which made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We had a great time shopping in Fairhope, and the local restaurants were fantastic. The parks and waterfront were absolutely beautiful and added so much to the trip. We would gladly recommend this home to others looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Jane, Denise, Rita, Pamela, Cynthia & DeAnn

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The home was even more beautiful in person—every detail was thoughtfully designed and made the space feel so warm and inviting. It was spotless when we arrived, which made us feel comfortable right away. The location was stunning and added so much to our overall experience—it truly felt like a peaceful getaway. On top of that, the host was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay, which made everything seamless. We had everything we needed and more, from the well-stocked amenities to the little touches that made it feel extra special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

This place is Elite! Great area and only 10-15 min from town. Sheri communicated with us and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Beautiful view of the river and a short drive from the Bay. We will return!

Beautiful home and wonderful host! We booked the house for our wedding party, and it made the whole trip so much more fun. The house was perfect for us, with plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. It couldn’t have been a better fit!

Find us

A car is essential for getting around — this is a private waterfront retreat in a quiet rural community, and that seclusion is part of what makes it special. The rural roads are peaceful and walkable, and several parks and nature trails are nearby for those who want to explore on foot. The nearest grocery, dining, and bait shop are 5 minutes away. Downtown Fairhope is 15–20 minutes. Gulf Shores beaches are 35 minutes. For those flying in, New Orleans (MSY) is a favorite arrival point — direct flights are widely available, and the drive east along the Gulf Coast is a leisurely adventure in its own right. A stop in Ocean Springs, Mississippi is highly recommended — a charming, artsy waterfront town not unlike Fairhope itself, just a quick detour from Biloxi. Pensacola (PNS) and Mobile (MOB) are closer at roughly one hour and 40 minutes respectively, though connections are often required. By water, the public boat launch is 3 minutes from the property — putting Mobile Bay, the Fish River, and the Gulf all within easy reach.
