Two of my dear friends and I spent several wonderful days in Fairhope at this local property and we had a fabulous time! We are all retired after working together 20+ years.
The large house was very clean and we enjoyed several days there using it as home base as we enjoyed sightseeing, shopping and eating at delightful restaurants in the Fairhope area. The house is in a beautiful, rural area and we loved every minute of our stay.
The landlord was a precious lady who obviously takes extremely good care of her properties and lives close by. This sweet lady is so talented and takes very good care of her rentals and guests. We so enjoyed meeting her and getting to know her. Delightful!
We will be back and we will share this newly found treasure with our friends!

Tessie is a great host. She met us when we arrived and took the time to give us a tour of the house. She made sure we knew she was available if we needed anything and left great informational brochures of places to eat and visit while we were there. This is a wonderful location between the smaller town of Fairhope, with its smaller restaurants and shops and Foley which has more of the national chain varieties. We had a great time and would love to come back again, thank you Tessie for giving us such a nice place to spend quality time with our adult children. We loved making new memories there!

The house is lovely. Tessie was very friendly. Her property is a special retreat. The house was far larger than I thought. It is beautifully furnished and the outside setting and porches are wonderful. There is a great attention to detail. I will definitely be staying here again. Thank you Tessie for the wonderful weekend.

We had a lovely time at Tessie's Terra Firma! We found the rental extremely clean and convenient to Fairhope but in a peaceful location just out of town. Tessie was extremely helpful to help us get around the town. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Fairhope and at Terra Firma. I would highly recommend this rental!
