Come and enjoy a few nights of fun and fishing on the historical Fish River. This centrally located property is a mere 15 minutes from the beautiful town of Fairhope and it is approximately 30 minutes away from the white sandy beaches of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. Our comfy river cabin includes 1 bed/ 1bath and is able to comfortably sleep two adults. The kitchen is fully functional as well as an outdoor charcoal grill. A large covered porch is an inviting place to sit, relax, and enjoy the view of the river. It is intentionally positioned on Fish River basin, which gives you a great deal of privacy while also being a stones-throw away from the main river. The cabin does not sit on the water. but our beautiful boathouse provides ample water access. We have a long pier for fishing and swimming, as well as a beautiful boathouse. We have a place to launch kayaks or other small boats as well as the perfect place for swimming. This prime Fish River location gives you access to some of the best fishing Baldwin County has to offer. This river’s name is no coincidence because it is chock-full of redfish, speckle trout, and even dolphins from time to time. Come and see what all of the fuss is about at The Cabin on Fish River.

My husband and I spent the week, relaxing, enjoying all the nature. aour favorite thing was the amazing boathouse.Cabin is small, but oerfect for a couple.This was our first visit to Alabama, the people, weather and natural beauty were wonderful.
I had a great time staying at this property. In every category it exceeded expectations. We chose this location because we want a quiet weekend away y to enjoy nature. This is a great place to do that . I was particularly struck by the cleanliness and condition of the property. Everything was as advertised and there were no hiccups. Everything worked and was in good condition. The communications were clear and helpful. I hope we will return soon. I would really like to do more kayaking.
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at the cabin. The boathouse was amazing. We sat out there most every night just enjoying nature. Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful location and property!!!!
We enjoyed our weekend kid free getaway. It was quiet and just the relaxation we needed. We had some great food and enjoyed kayaking to Big Daddy's Grill. We even decided to go for a dip and had a dolphin swim up in the cove. It was an enjoyable weekend.
Susan was a lovely host and the house was great for a couple's getaway weekend. It was relaxing and very comfortable with a great property on the water.
We enjoyed our time here so very much. It was beautiful, clean and so relaxing. Susan is a great host and thinks of everything. We will be going here again!
The cabin was nice and the boat house even nicer. We enjoyed kayaking, fishing and biking. We ate at Jesses in Magnolia springs, Big Daddy’s near the cabin and Gambinos in Fairhope.
We loved the entire experience. The house was great with plenty of amenities. The boat house was amazing with tons of access to the water. We swam, fished, grilled, and kayaked every day. The sunsets are beautiful overlooking the river. We will book this property again!!!
I am a retired elementary school principal growing up in Fairhope and living most of my life in Baldwin County.
Why they chose this property
We have always wanted to own property on Fish River. The cabin is in very close proximity to our primary residence which makes it an ideal get-away.
What makes this property unique
The property is located in a basin which provides a more private setting, while the main river is a mere one hundred feet away. A small sand bar is located near the basin which can be enjoyed during low tide. The scenery from the boat house as well as the cabin provides an up close view of an estuary protected for generations.
