This home is one of the highest ranked based on ratings, reviews, and reliability ★
★"The location is perfect for beach combing and sunset views."★
★"By far, this home was our favorite. The house was GORGEOUS! Even better in person than in the photos!"★
★"There are a lot of listings that look great in photos thanks to trendy furniture or styling, but the reality doesn't at all live up to what is portrayed. Meanwhile, it is a very rare gem to find a house like this one - one that not only meets expectations, but delivers above and beyond with quality and an attention to detail that makes every minute spent there feel like an absolute treat. Jennifer and Dave's beautiful cottage by the bay was the most well-furnished airbnb I've ever visited, curated with the highest quality and style. Parachute linen sheets, gorgeous Schoolhouse quilts, wonderful pillowtop mattresses, not a single squeaky bed frame to be found, automated lights for perfect ambience at all hours, XL handspun cotton towels, Public Goods soaps, a Miele vacuum for easy cleanup, Loll design furniture, beautiful local art on every wall, and the list goes on . . . All this plus amazing sunsets, a stunning neighborhood, perfect location, and the most gracious hosts!"★

Everyone’s favorite room is the screened porch and it's the perfect spot to watch stunning views of the sunset over Mobile Bay. It runs the entire length of the house and is furnished with a large dining table that seats six, an oversized cushioned porch swing, and a pair of vintage lounge chairs. It overlooks not just Mobile Bay but also a boat basin full of turtles, frogs, fish, and the occasional alligator. We keep several pairs of binoculars on the porch so you can get a closer look.
Two pairs of french doors open onto the porch from the great room. It has vaulted ceilings, a nice fireplace that is just for decoration and a spiral staircase that leads to the loft. The loft is a perfect retreat for the young and nimble. It is furnished with two twin xl beds and a window seat with a view of the bay.
There is a little office off of the great room that has a small desk perched in front of a window giving great views of the bay. It’s a great place to work on your next novel, or even your first!
The kitchen has a full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and gas stove with an oven and its full of pots, pans, dishes and utensils. The laundry room has a stacked washer/dryer.
One of the bathrooms needed updating, so of course we removed everything down to the studs. Now this bathroom has a brand new tiled shower, new toilet and new vanity with a wall mounted faucet. The second bathroom has a tub/shower that has been updated with a hand shower, more contemporary plumbing and a new toilet. It already had a nice white tile surround and cast iron tub. Both bathrooms are ensuite. Each of the two bedrooms has a California king size bed. The rear bedroom has a set of french doors that open onto the screened porch. The bedding is linen from West Elm.
We've installed an EV charger - It is a 24 amp 5.7kw charger and the J1772 Wall Connector is compatible with most North American electric vehicles. Tesla vehicles will require an additional SAE J1772 Charging Adapter to charge, which is included with Tesla vehicles upon delivery.
We decided purchase the home where we want to retire and for now, we’re sharing it with you! It’s just three doors down from our current house. Yes - we love the neighborhood so much that we bought another house just down the street. The home, designed by local architect Douglas Kearley, was built as a replacement for his family's original summer house that was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. He sited the home perfectly to capture gorgeous sunset views from the back porch and all of the shared spaces in the home!

We've got room for two cars in the driveway - Please don't park on the grass! You can explore the neighborhood on foot, but the real star of the show is Mobile Bay - We recommend taking a walk on the beach at least as far as Red Gully (to the south) to get a feel for the natural beauty of Mobile Bay!
We live down the street so we're always available! When we can, we like to greet guests in person and give a quick tour of the house.
Our home, located on Mobile Bay, has stunning views of the sunset from the screened porch which runs across the entire back of the house. We love our quiet neighborhood on Mobile Bay. Montrose, Alabama, a registered historic district, which is nestled between Fairhope and Daphne on Scenic Hwy 98. You'll see kids headed down to the beach on bicycles with buckets and fishing poles and neighbors casting shrimp nets hoping for a jubilee. You can walk along the bay front beach to the north or south as far as your feet will take you. The sunset here is fantastic over the water. From the expansive 12x40' screened porch we have an extraordinary view.
There's room for two cars in the driveway.
Remember that you're staying in our home, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If you need anything, reach out - we’re just down the street!

Summary: The House was adorable, great, clean screened in porch ( upstairs only) wonderful.Problem- there is no bay beach front access from the bayside of this property or the house !!Instead right in front of the porch side of house facing what should be the view of the bay is a city drain off pond of shallow, Thank you ma’am stagnant water, totally overgrown full of debris overgrown and not maintained.Beside the property and fence you have to go through a gate on the side of the property to a path that has signage grass, ( and a variety of wildlife) that flows into the bay.We had no area to play or sit and enjoy the area from the yard. Only the upstairs porch.The Actual access to a very small section of sandy beach on the bay is actually a path you have to walk down beside the house and this stagnant water/pond which is an access pass for the public or neighborhood area, which others from the area also use. From the front porch facing the bay you actually cannot even see the bay in front of of you., maybe views to the sides.Objection to this is that the pictures shown on the website did not indicate or describe that thisPond area was so close to house and between the house and bay and unkept!Owner/host was very nice and while a refund was offered when we arrive -when you book a vacation and need to get away with your family,You have a car packed with food and kids - where are you suppose to go at 4:00 pm in the day?

Summary: Wonderful property in a beautiful location. Hosts were incredibly attentive and friendly making sure that everything was meeting our needs. Would definitely come back.
Alison S. Jun 23, 2025 05:59:40 AM
Summary: Everything from the prompt responses from the owners to the promise of the frog symphony was on point! I arrived later than I expected and the lights had been turned on for me to create a peaceful scene after a long car ride. Beautiful property inside and out!Sitting on the back porch swing watching the sunset was breathtakingDaphne is a super cute city with plenty to do and close enough to the beaches that you can spend the day there and still come home to a welcoming spot of your own!If relaxation is your vibe, check out this property for your next stay.

Summary: We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. We walked the bay beach and listened to frogs on the beautiful porch. I could have stayed forever. The owners were very attentive and accommodating. I would highly recommend and hope to get back one day!
Elizabeth O. May 15, 2025 07:12:55 PM
Summary: Where do I start? The house was spotless, the bedding / linens were amazing (fabric, texture, quality - all of it), and the home is decorated beautifully. Dave and Jenn provide more than basic necessities, including coffee and creamer (and it’s actually good coffee - not a pod). Plenty of dishwasher pods and laundry pods to use, along with paper towels, trash bags, cleaning supplies, and toilet paper—way more than what is usually at a rental home. We had a child under 2 and will stay here again for every reason under the sun (they even have kid books for bedtime!). Even though the home is inviting and comfy - very coastal living magazine - we spent most of our time outside on the screened in patio on what we called "the swinging bed” overlooking the bay. There are stylish cushions on every chair outside that almost force you to take a nap. Steps from the bay with toys and chairs to use - perfect entertainment for a child and relaxation for parents. There’s a little room with a desk facing the bay if you need to get some work done like I did - of course, the WiFi was flawless like everything else. This office space also fits a pack n play and has an air vent so perfect for a little one. We had several delivery orders with no issues. Can’t say enough positive things about this property and the hosts. Just what we needed and thankful we found it. If you’re hesitant, book it! You won’t be disappointed.

Summary: This was the perfect home for making memories. The view was breathtaking, especially while fishing at sunset. The front porch alone deserves 5 stars. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. I can't recommend this home enough.

Summary: Can’t say enough great things about this houseWhat a special ability to sit outside on the back porch and look at the bay
Kim H. Apr 23, 2025 05:13:48 AM
Summary: We had a great experience. The Frog Symphony home and the real thing are awesome. We were there to relax and that’s exactly what we were able to do. The host are amazing and make sure you have what you need.

Summary: Our stay at Frog Symphony was awesome! The home is beautiful and cozy. We loved the decor especially the porch swing/bed. And the frogs did sing to us! It had all the amenities to make our visit comfortable and enjoyable. Dave was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We would most definitely stay there again. One of the BEST VRBO we’ve stayed in. Thank you Dave!!!

Summary: We stayed here for two nights on our way to New Orleans. Jen and Dave were awesome hosts, greeting us when we arrived and sharing lots of recommendations for what to do in the area. It rained the weekend we were there but that didn’t stop us from enjoying Fairhope and Daphne. The house is clean and modern with comfortable beds and a huge screened-in porch (where we spent most of our time). Our girls loved the loft and the circular staircase. Had the weather been nicer, we would have taken advantage of the kayaks and beach gear. We were seven minutes from everything: restaurants, custard shops, bookstores, grocery stores, wine shops, and more. Highly recommend!
