The property is PERFECT! We were able to relax, bbq, cook a few meals, great tv coverage in living area and master bedroom. our 2 kitties came with us. and had a great time watching the 3 horses in the back property. The horses were super friendly and came to us for carrots. The property is in a perfect location to get to fun activites. We went to tour the USS Alabama and learned alot of history. Shopping in atique stores were fantastic with lots of great treasures. We had birthday dinner at The Wash House which we highly recommend. Lunch at Locals during one of our shopping trips was also great! Can't wait to go back to this very clean VRBO and Fairhope such a clean and friendly place! ##### Julie D.
