Emerson House Fairhope - Steps to Fairhope Pier, Downtown

Most visit Fairhope for the majestic Mobile Bay sunsets, quaint small-town shopping and dining, local art and pottery, and good old fashioned peace and quiet. For these interests Emerson House Fairhope is hands down the best location you can find.

Sitting just one block from Mobile Bay and the Fairhope Pier, an easy walk accesses everything downtown - great dining, shopping, art, parks and more.

This spacious custom built home caters well to large families and groups. Featuring an open kitchen adjacent to a formal dining room support entertaining and casual dining alike.

An additional upstairs living area and a large outdoor seating area make spreading out comfortably a joy to stay on property.

The backyard is a fully decked and furnished seating area; a pergola provides partial shade.

The rocking chairs on the screened front porch create an additional space that is perfect for coffee and reading.

And for a more authentic experience, cruise around town in the complimentary house golf cart like a true Fairhopian.

This property is top notch all the way around. The location is ideal for easy access to downtown. It’s laid out perfect for entertaining and well maintained. The host is very responsive but we didn’t have any issues while staying there so didn’t need to contact her during the visit. We’ll definitely be back for another stay!

We had a great stay with family at Emerson house. The kids loved walking down to the pier each night for awesome sunsets. Went to the park with splash pad nearby. House was better/bigger in person than it showed in the pictures, with high ceilings.

My husband's siblings / spouses like to plan annual trips. I booked The Emerson house and must say it exceeded all of our expectations. Location was perfect for running back and forth shopping. We ate at Tamara's, Kingfishers and Section Street pizza and they were all off the charts. Check in-Check out was a breeze. Will definitely book again. The kitchen was the best stocked I have ever seen. The layout was perfect for us.

Perfect location and soooo nice!

The home was beautiful and just a short walk to the pier. We stayed there with family and friends for my daughter’s wedding, and we rented the Bay House Estate just around the corner for her bridal party. It was the perfect combination of properties for an event of that type, and the property manager was very accommodating. I definitely recommend this property!
