Gated Garden Cottage · King Bed · Walkable to Downtown Fairhope

"We came for a weekend and regret only booking five nights." — Airbnb guest

Faith Cottage is a private, gated garden retreat at 614 Nichols Avenue — 720 square feet of Gold Fortified construction, a short walk from the heart of Fairhope.

The Space
Inside, a light-filled living area flows from a comfortable sectional to an island that seats four. The kitchen is genuinely equipped: gas range, Simply Good Coffee brewer plus Keurig, chef's deep sink with integrated cutting board, full-size refrigerator, dishwasher. The spa bath features double vanities, a pebble-floor walk-in shower, and hotel-grade bath products. The king bedroom has French glass sliding doors that open directly to your private garden terrace.

Outdoors
The garden terrace is what guests keep talking about. A shaded breakfast nook for morning coffee, alfresco dining for six, a garden lounge under string lights, and a mature double-lot garden — figs, persimmons, butterfly plantings, native plants — that makes the whole property feel rooted in Fairhope rather than assembled for a catalog. Two 14/50 EV chargers on-site.

The Neighborhood
One block from Warehouse Bakery, Refuge Coffee, District Hall, Fairhope Brewing, and Hope Farm. One block to pickleball and tennis at Stimpson Park. Two blocks to Thomas Hospital. Five minutes on foot to the Municipal Pier and Fairhope's famous bluff views.
During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Mike Ford Tennis Center. Features include a water park and laundry facilities. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the vacation home.

This place is super cute and feels like a little home away from home. We did have a hiccup in the beginning but Dave and Jen were great and took care of the issue right away. Thank you.

This property was beautifully decorated, clean, and had multiple spaces for relaxing inside and out. There was good communication with the host. The only issue we had was not planning a longer stay! We definitely plan to return.

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was very clean, and the bed was extremely comfortable *something very important to me*. The house has many thoughtful additions that we enjoyed. Also, we were so close to downtown Fairhope which was easily one of the most charming towns I’ve ever visited. Dave was a fantastic host as well! He was very quick to respond and just a wonderful person all around! If you’re a foodie like me, make sure to grab all his dining recommendations! We are already talking about our next trip back!

A great peaceful retreat tucked away in an area you wouldn't expect to find such a beautiful place.Impeccable furnishings, and outdoor seating areas, complete with a fire pit, water feature, and privacy. Jen and Dave are ideal hosts with easy access and great communication. Would recommend this for any couple wanting to escape the madness of everyday life and enjoy a wonderful place to recharge your battery. Close to downtown and the great restaurants in Fairhope. We will definitely come back. Joe and Tina
