Great stay. Loved the area and home was very clean. Only thing I would recommend is updating property details that the grill is a very old treager. Also more detailed instructions in the book at the house about grill, fan on dock, where to find things would be nice. Other than that we loved it there.

Great house in a great location!

Everything about our stay was wonderful. All communication in advance was prompt and seamless. Property was as described-so clean and totally stocked with everything we needed! Bed so comfortable. We especially enjoyed the dock-fishing and catching crabs. Location is convenient to restaurants, shopping and golf courses. Can’t wait to return!

Wonderfully quiet waterfront retreat!

We had a wonderful quiet few days of rest and relaxation. The house was very clean and comfortable. The coffee bar is a very nice touch. Our pups loved watching the birds and fish jump from the dock. We will definitely try to book again!

Peaceful River getaway

We spent a lot of time on the dock, since the weather was beautiful. Caught some crabs in the traps & used them for gumbo. The house had all that we needed, and the bed was very comfortable. I slept great! Very enjoyable and hope to visit again soon!

Couldn’t be better

This property is extremely nice. Very clean house with amazing beds a nice bedrooms and a nice size living/dining room to accommodate the whole family. This property is located right on fish river with one of the nicest boat docks I’ve seen an a big back yard with plenty of room for your pets to play. I really liked the location away from all the traffic a red lights but still only fifteen minutes from Foley. I would recommend this property to everyone looking to stay in the area. I will definitely be comming back.

Long weekend getaway

My husband, mother and 2 sweet pups decided to check out Fairhope for a long weekend but wanted to stay somewhere that our dogs would have fun and that would be relaxing/peaceful. We definitely found that staying here! The hosts were very friendly, responsive and made the whole process very easy! The property was incredibly beautiful and the home was very charming. Beds were very comfortable! The hosts went out of their way to also make sure that our pups enjoyed their time as well by having a basket with thoughtful items provided. We can’t say enough good things and will hopefully be back sometime soon!

Wonderful weekend vacation

It was very peaceful. Super nice neighbors. I took 2 foster kids. The 11 year old boy had never been to the beach. The kids spent a lot of time in the water at the house. When they weren’t in the water they were fishing. They caught a lot of catfish. I think they enjoyed swimming at the house better than the beach! We’re definitely planning to go back!

Vacation home on Fish River

Pier was amazing, home was nice, very clean, but I don’t see how they can advertise it sleeps 8 people. Way too crowded for 8. 6 people maximum. Owners supplied many amenities, such as pellets for the pellet grill( which a great job) Fishing off the pier was difficult due to constant stream of boats riding close by. But a super relaxing setting. Only drawback was house too small for 8 people

Unbelievable

This house is amazing!!! Very comfortable inside and out!! A majority of our time was spent on the dock. Out of 4 days at the property, I believe we were inside for 12-15 hours of the trip. The host are very helpful and very easily contacted. I believe the longest it took for a response was 5 minutes. Great people, great location, and yes we will be back!!!

Definitely Going Back

Perfect location for what we wanted - about 20 minutes to the outlets in Foley and 20 minutes to Fairhope. The house reminded us of an old fish camp. It's not fancy, but it is clean and ideal for spending your time outdoors. The dock is great for watching the sunset. The neighbors on both sides are friendly. We had a couple of questions while we were there. The property manager, Mary, was easy to reach and very helpful. My husband is eager to book our next stay. Thank you for your hospitality! We will definitely be back.

Wonderful!

We were in town for a Friday wedding so we only stayed a couple of nights...but wish we had planned for a longer stay! The house is cute and comfortable, like your Nana's home...but has everything that you might need, like a fancy hotel. I forgot a few things and figured I would have to make a trek to the grocery store, but they thought of everything. The dock was one of my favorite things...2 swinging beds and another swing, plus a full table and chairs for outdoor dining. The next door neighbor was very welcoming, too. Easy arrival and super-easy checkout. We'd love to return and bring our boat! Thank you for your generosity!

James’ Riverhouse on the Fish River was just what we needed. The house was exceptionally clean, had everything we needed and very spacious. The dock was the perfect place to watch the sunset. Great neighbors, really enjoyed meeting them! Thanks James for sharing your home with us.
