This peaceful, pedestrian-friendly town on the shores of Mobile Bay has long drawn artists attracted to the small town ambiance and prevalence of local galleries and studios for displaying their work. The galleries pepper downtown streets along the waterfront, alongside more than 80 antique shops, small boutiques and locally owned restaurants. The first Friday of each month, the Eastern Shore Arts Center and Fairhope Visitors Center host an arts walk, and visitors can meet the artists and enjoy live music, drinks and hors d'oeuvres. Each March, the town welcomes more than 150,000 visitors to its three-day Arts & Crafts Festival.
Fairhope offers plenty of recreational opportunities aside from artistic pursuits and shopping. Residents enjoy fishing off the pier or boating and kayaking in the bay. There are two golf courses in town and paths for biking and jogging.
For urban amenities, residents can make the half-hour jaunt to Mobile. But they don't need to leave for health care: Thomas Hospital is located within Fairhope. --B.B.

Influx of country club members prompts push for new buyers at subdivision
Sunday, September 27, 2009
By KATHY JUMPER
Real Estate Editor
Local Realtors are hoping some of the 125 new members of Steelwood Country Club will want to buy a home in the gated residential community on 1,400 acres in Loxley, and are holding a mass open house today from 1 to
4 p.m.
"Having new members should get us new buyers," said Scott Smith, golf pro at Steelwood's Jerry Pate-
designed golf course and owner of Landmark Real
Estate.
Last July, Richard and Carol Miller, the developers of Steelwood near the Loxley exit off Interstate 10, sold their ownership in Steelwood Country Club to 40 original club members.
A membership campaign followed. By the time the push ends, there should be an estimated 350 club members, according to Smith.
The club amenities include the golf course, a 200-acre lake, a fish camp, boating, tennis courts, clubhouse dining, swimming pools, a fitness center and land for hunting.
"The neat thing about the development is the diversity in that there are 750-square-foot cabins to 5,000-square-foot homes and everything in between," Smith said. "A lot of owners started small with a cabin and wanted to see how much they would use the amenities, and now they have moved up to larger homes."
In the past, it was tough for agents to get in the secluded Steelwood subdivision to show houses, according to Barbara Sims of Dauphin Realty West. She and her colleagues organized today's open house after learning about the number of new club members. "New blood brings more activity," she said.
The homes open for tours range from $335,000 to $985,000 and include Prickett Properties, Landmark Real Estate, Dauphin Realty and Roberts Brothers.
There are 130 homes in Steelwood and about 50 lots available for sale at prices from $67,000 to $365,000.
The new board put together a membership program that was economically feasible even in the current economy, Scott said.
The full initiation fee is $15,000, with annual dues of $1,400 to $4,410, depending on the range of services, according to the Steelwood Web site.
Fall is by far one of the best times to go to one of our Alabama or Florida Beach locations. Prickett Properties has lowered the rates to the lowest price of the year. You can come stay at all of our best properties for 1/3 of the price!

Turquoise Place renting 90 units Developer says having portion off market makes 45 remaining condos easier to sell Sunday, May 10, 2009 By KATHY JUMPER Real Estate Editor
The owners of 90 units at the 24-story Turquoise Place in Orange Beach have furnished and are now renting the brand-new units, according to Rich Richardson of Spectrum Capital, based in Jackson, Miss.
Spectrum paid about $45 million for 90 of the 181 Gulf-front units, according to court records.
Spectrum is the real estate arm of Yates Cos., the contractor that built Turquoise Place on Ala. 182 in partnership with developer Larry Wireman of Orange Beach, Richardson said
About 46 units have been sold and the owners have moved in, Wireman said. The 90 are in rentals, and the remaining 45 units start at $1.2 million, according to Wireman, who also developed Caribe Resort in Orange Beach.
In 2005, the units presold for an average $1.5 million, with the 6,000-square-foot penthouses averaging $5 million.
Offering the 90 units for rent "is a good thing," Wireman said last week. "They are off the sales market. It makes the rest of the units a lot better. We're not sitting there with 100 units to sell."
"The condo market is changing, and we have to adjust with the times," Richardson said. "You are definitely not going to find ones to rent like this that are brand-new with Sub-Zero refrigerators, high-end appliances and hot tubs. The smallest unit is a three bedroom with 2,300 square feet and private balconies."
"The market is going to be back. This is a way for people to buy some time and go ahead and furnish it for people to enjoy and use," said Chuck Norwood of REMAX of Gulf Shores. "It makes good sense. The rentals will offset some of the expenses."
However, Norwood added, "It doesn't make sense to buy a unit there as a rental."
The units will be operated by Spectrum's resort management division, Spectrum Vacations, which has an on-site rental management team.
The rental prices are competitive for the area rental market, with a three-bedroom, 3cm HALF-bath unit leasing for $290 per night, according to Richardson.
The lushly landscaped tower's amenities include an indoor pool, outdoor pool, a lazy river on the fourth floor, steam room, sauna, 3,000-square-foot gym and high-speed glass-and-tile elevators. Views from the tower stretch from Pensacola Beach to The Beach Club on Fort Morgan.

Let me preface this blog with the fact that I just returned from a week trip to the famous Atlantis resort in the Bahamas. Believe it or not, I enjoy traveling to other beach destinations and take notes from my trip to enhance our services at Prickett Properties in Orange Beach Alabama.
The Atlantis amenities are over the top. There are shark tanks, an aquarium that beats the New Orleans aquarium hands down, huge water slides, a 30 minute lazy river ride with white water rapids, a casino, and of course those turquoise waters.
However, the Atlantis is lacking affordability. I guess that I have gotten use to good ole Orange Beach Alabama because I was shocked. A domestic beer was $7.50 and a kids hot dog was $10.00 by the pool. I shutter to think about the dinner menu prices. $16.00 for a grilled cheese....really? The adult entrees were a standard of $30-$40 and sides were extra.
"Extra" was actually the word of the week for our family because everything was "Extra." For example, it cost $15.00 a day per person to go to the gym. Rock climbing anyone? Extra! I might have stomached all the extras better had the Bahamian people sold it with a smile. Nah...who needs to be nice? You can afford it right?
I welcomed good ole Alabama prices as I returned home today and reflected on how affordable and nice of a destination we have right here at our back door in Orange Beach. Not to mention, our southern hospitality will make anyone feel at home.
A family of 8 can stay at Turquoise Place, a beachfront 3 bedroom luxury condo, for only $255.00 a night in Feb and $3800 a week in the peak season. The tower we stayed at the Atlantis runs about $800 a night for a HOTEL room. Not to mention, Turquoise Place has high-end amenities such as private hot tubs on each balcony, wolf gas ranges, outdoor gas grills, jacuzzi tubs with flat screens in the master bath and ipod docking station with surround sound. At the Atlantis, I got a dated bed and a tiny tub/shower combo and there was no balcony.
I am not undermining the beauty of the bahamian waters or the fabulous water-park amenities that the Atlantis had to offer. I am however noting how much our area has to offer at such a VERY affordable price.
Not to mention, Orange Beach is becoming quite the destination itself. Has everyone heard that Kenny Chesney is coming to the Wharf????? Enough said :)

The homeowners association is run well. We can offer tons of information about that as I held the HOA presidency position for two years.
Prickett Properties, LLC is pleased to announce that is has included four Turqoise Place condos in its property management program. The condos are furnished and ready for rental.
Here are my thoughts on what this resort has to offer for guests. The resort is phenomenal with amenities not paralleled even at branded, high-end resorts such as the Ritz Carleton and Four Seasons. I have traveled quite a bit and stayed at many a $500 a night hotel, but never have I seen what Turquoise Place will offer guests. This condo is not remotely in the $500 a night category, but surprisingly it is only $500 a night in the peak season and even less during the Fall, Winter and Spring months. A large family can split the cost of staying in these spacious condos, and have a vacation experience like none other.
Let me start off by saying that the resort sits on 900 feet of beach front property so the location is not compromised for amenities. Every over-sized balcony features a private hot tub and outdoor kitchen fit for the grill master! Imagine yourself, soaking in your private hot tub overlooking the white sandy beaches and turquoise waters of the Gulf. No really, think of yourself there. Nice, huh? Now, imagine that your condo with over 2400 square feet which has a state of the art kitchen with a huge Sub Zero refrigerator, Wolf Gas range, and large dining area ready to entertain your entire family and friends. You can cook like a real chef in this culinary masterpiece while the others are enjoying the spacious living area with a gas fireplace overhung by a 50 inch flat screen TV.
After you enjoy your fabulous dinner and afternoon drinks in the hot tub, why not wind down in the master bath? The jacuzzi tub is large enough for two and fit for a queen. Still need to finish up your television shows? Don't worry, there is a flat screen in the master bath as well.
The resort itself has brilliantly designed an indoor pool area, larger than any I have seen, with a kiddie slide and underwater speakers for those swim lap enthusiasts. There is also an outdoor lazy river. The fitness center rivals any large chain gym with numerous "TRUE" cardio machines and a full weight-lifting gym.
Ready to make your reservation? We are ready to help you. Please click on "Vacation Rentals" for rates, dates and up to date availability. If you have larger groups, remember that we have two of the Turquoise Place condos side by side for a total of 6 bedrooms.
