1 Bedroom Apartment at Oak + Fountain 12
Overview
This 1 Bedroom Apartment at Oak + Fountain 12 is one of 19 professionally decorated units within the newly-renovated Oak + Fountain Retreat, a private-suite property set on a landscaped 2-acre lot in the small town of Grand Bay, Alabama. The unit sleeps up to three adults and is accessed via an interior hallway, with an entrance designed to resemble its own individual cottage. It offers a peaceful, rural-feeling retreat that is nonetheless just minutes from the Interstate.
Rooms & Layout
The unit includes a queen-sized bed plus a sofa that folds down into a twin bed, a walk-in closet, an oversized shower, and a kitchenette, making it suitable for small families, couples, or solo travelers wanting extra space. Air conditioning and heating are provided for year-round comfort, along with cable TV and free Wi-Fi. A private patio and smoke-free interior round out the in-unit features.
Amenities & Services
Guests have access to on-site laundry (washer), a microwave and kitchenette for light cooking, and free on-site parking. The broader property includes a screened porch, extensive gardens with three fountains and oak trees, and an event venue with a commercial kitchen, making the grounds usable for weddings, church functions, and corporate retreats (arranged directly with the host). The property is pet-friendly, though a non-refundable pet fee applies and pets must be leashed.
Location & Surroundings
Oak + Fountain sits close to the City of Mobile, the University of South Alabama, and Mobile Regional Airport, roughly 15.5 km away, with Gulfport-Biloxi International and Gulf Shores International airports also within reasonable driving distance. Several seafood and casual dining options, including Southern Shells, Kravers Seafood Mobile, Happy Tails Seafood, and Bayou Grill, are within roughly 10-20 km, and the white sand beaches of Dauphin Island are also convenient to reach from the property.
Best for
This unit suits small families, couples, or groups of up to three who want a quiet, garden-set retreat with the convenience of nearby interstate access, an airport within about 15 km, and easy reach of Mobile and coastal beach areas. It's also a good fit for guests attending events at the on-site venue, such as weddings or corporate retreats, given the property's commercial kitchen and expansive 2-acre grounds. Pet owners traveling with a leashed pet are accommodated, subject to a pet fee.
Travel tips
Free on-site parking and proximity to the Interstate make a rental car the most practical way to explore Mobile, the University of South Alabama area, and Dauphin Island's beaches. Mobile Regional Airport is roughly 15.5 km away, making it the most convenient airport option versus the more distant Gulfport-Biloxi or Gulf Shores airports. Check-in is contactless via a 4-digit door code sent a few hours before arrival, so guests should complete required identity verification in advance to avoid delays.
