The Sandpiper ~ Bay Access

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful bungalow steps from Mobile Bay. The location is perfectly situated near downtown Daphne, and a short drive to Fairhope, Mobile and the white sand beaches of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. The community also offers private bay access steps from the front door to view the stunning sunsets of South Alabama.

This cute cottage on a private street offers three bedrooms and two baths. The master bedroom is equipped with a king size bed and an en suite bathroom with bathtub. The other two bedrooms share a hall bath, also with a bathtub. The second bedroom has 1 queen and the 3rd bedroom offers a bunk bed for the kids with a full on bottom and a twin on top. There is a cozy living area with a comfy sofa, a breakfast area and a fully equipped kitchen. Off the kitchen, there is a washer and dryer to use at your leisure and a desk with wifi if you need to work from home. The property offers plenty of parking on the front gravel drive, a partially fenced backyard and a great deck to grill out your fresh catch from the bay!

We have included games, books, toys, hair dryers, a steamer, a booster seat and more to make this property as family friendly as possible! We love traveling with our kids and wanted to make it as convenient as possible for others to do so, as well.

Inside the gated entrance, you are steps away from deeded bay access provided to all properties on the street. It is the perfect spot to take your kayak or paddle board or just a cold drink and a beach chair! The sunsets on Mobile Bay are stunning!

We offer a keyless entry with a unique code for your stay and a Blink doorbell system with camera in case you need any assistance. You have access to the entire property, including the deeded bay access.

Our home is one mile away so we are readily available to help with any issues or offer any recommendations for our area. We purchased this property this year and it has been a true labor of love. We hope you love it as much as we do!
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Mobile Bay. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the holiday home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and 2 bathrooms
  • Free WiFi
  • Steps from Mobile Bay and 4 minutes on foot from Hot Wheels Skate Center
The Sandpiper ~ Bay Access offers its guests barbecue grills. The front desk is open around the clock.

Family-friendly, great place!
We booked the Sandpiper for my son and his young family to stay in while they were visiting from out of state. The location is perfect, close to everything but tucked away in a secluded spot. The house was just what they needed! Perfect for a small family, so kid-friendly. Love the decor! Andi was super responsive to any questions we had. A+++

My family was in town for a wedding and The Sandpiper was perfect for what we needed. Between events all weekend it was in a centrally located and quiet area. The house is beautifully decorated, very clean and accommodated 6 adults comfortably.

Obviously, the house has recently been remodeled, and is beautiful inside! The location is perfect for day trips. We even went to Pascagoula, Mississippi for dinner! We HIGHLY recommend this property, and would return often, if we didn't live in Maryland! Thanks Andi!!

Cute, cozy cottage
Andi was a wonderful host. Directions to the home and to enter were very clear and easy. The home itself is well-appointed with homey touches and sparkling. Andi was very kind and checked on us during the severe weather alerts and told us where all the emergency supplies were in case they were needed. We would definitely go back.

Super Comfy! Totally Lovely!
Thanksgiving back at my old stomping ground was getting a little crowded! My sister and I and our husbands and two of our teens decided to look at a VRBO. Sandpiper was perfect! Super comfy. Do read the guide before you arrive at night after dinner with the fam. There's a gate, and it's DARK. But the owner kindly answered my text and was patient. Such an adorable place. So nicely remodeled!

We had such a lovely time staying at the Sand Piper. It was so clean, smelled wonderful, and was decorated so beautifully.

Sand Piper Retreat
Perfect getaway from the daily hustle and bustle, and yet steps away from Main Street restaurants, Recreation Center, Library, Tennis and Pickleball courts, Museum, hiking trails, and much more. Located a few steps from the Mobile Bay shore to enjoy the views and sunsets and only a few miles away from the beautiful town of Fairhope. Owners/Hosts were very gracious and accommodating. Highly recommend this property, especially if you are in need to decompress and spend quality time with family and friends.
