The Times describes it as “Coastal Southern,” notes it opened in June 2025, and highlights chef Bill Briand’s Louisiana Cajun influences in the Gulfside, arts-oriented Fairhope setting.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ “The property was amazing. We felt at home. The cabin was squeaky clean and presented beautifully. The private porches and space is so pleasant. We also enjoyed all the extras....gated property (felt very safe and private), common area in yard (including the play area for games) and extra bathroom and bath, coffee, and half and half, and hand soaps, shampoo, conditioner and bath gel for showers. We were soo relaxed, wanted to leave shades open the entire time to enjoy the beauty of the gardens.” ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

    The beauty and size of the accommodation was really well done. We would definitely stay again when returning to the area. The hosts was very attentive to our needs. Also “loved” the theme carried throughout.

    The property was perfect. Located on a quiet street between downtown and main highway. The property owners were very responsive and very easy to check in and out. I highly recommend this property for couples wanting to visit Fairhope and Daphne area.

    What a great spot! We were looking for a relaxing getaway, and this trip delivered beyond our expectations. This property is extraordinarily thoughtful in the amenities and small details of a stay away from home. We were excited by the listing, and our arrival exceeded that emotion. We will be returning guests. The Hosts are wonderful and made sure that we were accommodated with whatever we needed. Their design and planning within the property made our stay so easy from the start of our arrival. The area feels like you are secluded, yet less than a mile from most of the main Fairhope shops and restaurants. The property is very secure and safe as well. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and lighting the fire pit table in the cool evenings. It is a favorite now.

    One of my best stays ever! The place is ideal with everything you need and comes with a fantastic coffee bar (everything included). It’s a very peaceful zen atmosphere with a wonderful outdoor eating area! Indoors is laid out perfectly and is very open and airy. Best part is the host is extremely polite and responsive. We loved our stay. Thank You!

    The property was exactly as described—easy to access, private, and in a safe, quiet area. The unit was spotless and stocked with hotel-level amenities, including quality linens, toiletries, and thoughtful touches that made the stay comfortable. Check-in was simple, communication was clear, and the space worked perfectly for a relaxing, hassle-free visit. Would stay again.

    This was the perfect cottage for our weekend getaway! The Kirby’s were so kind and helpful. The property feels private and cozy. We loved sitting out back with the fire pit! Only a literal 5 minute drive to downtown Fairhope. Highly recommend staying here!

    Amazing place! We notice this is a two unit spot and we got lucky with having the property to ourselves! The bed is super plush and the balcony is a peaceful place to relax and to look at the beautiful live oak thats growing by the balcony! Tons of places on the property to sit and relax, and great pastries and coffee down the street from here called Warehouse and Sage Mediterranean restaurant is a treasure to the neighborhood! Its 52 mins from gulf shores beach! Great Location would definitely recommend!

    Perfect stay. Close to everything yet feels like a little private hideaway. Property itself is gorgeous, and we enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evening around the fire table. Inside was clean and comfortable. Great communication. We hope to return soon!

    We loved our stay here in Fairhope. The Kirby’s were very accommodating and extremely nice. The property is a mile away from downtown Fairhope and good food is all around. I love that the outdoor space is so relaxing and dreamy. Listening to birds and seeing the butterflies in the garden makes me want to sit out there all day to drink coffee or wine. The bed is so comfortable, bathroom is a dream, and the living spaces are open and bright. We felt very secure with the gate into the property. We’ll most definitely be back to enjoy this sanctuary.
