Bayfront Vacation Home - gorgeous views and perfect for family vacation

  • Enjoy the most beautiful sunsets from this quaint, private vacation home located directly on the bay!! Relax on the spacious deck and watch the birds and dolphins. There is a private pier for fishing or just soaking up the sunshine. The property is located on the Fort Morgan Peninsula away from the hustle and bustle of the main Gulf Shores tourist area yet close enough to visit all of the attractions if desired. The kitchen is equipped with appliances, cookware, and serving ware. There are 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom in the main living area of the home. There is a bonus second full utility bathroom on the ground level that is perfect for rinsing off after the beach or to easily access while fishing off the dock. The house comfortably sleeps 6 guests. Primary bedroom has a king sized bed, guest room 1 has a full sized bed, and guest room 2 has two twin beds.
    Closest Gulf beach access is about 1.5 miles away. Additional beach access points with paved parking 3.5-4.1 miles away. Ft Morgan historic site and beach are 8.6 miles away. Championship golf courses and fishing charters within 10 miles. The Village Hideaway Restaurant and shops at The Beach Club Resort are directly across Hwy 180 from the property (0.2 mile).

This home and location was perfect for our family getaway. We loved the location and simplicity of it. The pier was the highlight and we spent most of our time there, fishing, watching dolphins or just hanging out. We definitely plan to stay again!

Excellent stay

The property is a little older but it was clean. My husband and I wanted a place off the grid a little and away from the noise of tourist spots. Plus he wanted to do a lot of fishing. It was the perfect choice with the private dock and in location. We would definitely look to book here again.

Beautiful & Relaxing

This is our second stay as a group but my husbands 3rd stay. Never disappoints with how beautiful the house and the view is. Even enjoyed sitting out on the deck and listening to the music from the beach club across the street. Thanks again to the owners for renting out such a beautiful place.

Just what was needed…

We enjoyed our vacation to the Gulf Shores. We will definitely be back. The VRBO was convenient to all necessary items, while at the same time being remote and quiet. The location allowed us to relax enjoy the water or take a short drive to catch the ferry to Dauphine Island, walk at the wildlife refuge or shop at the Wharf.

Great time!

Our adult son stayed in the downstairs bedroom, I’m not sure if the smell was moldy or just the damp wood paneling, but he was happy there, the bathroom was very small downstairs so we didn’t use it for showers, just for bathroom breaks while fishing and cleaning fish (the fishing was great)! We enjoyed the views the whole time! And it was very peaceful and quiet. No complaints!

Wedding

The house was a great size and plenty of space. We also had everything we could need. The house was not as clean as I’d expect (hairs on pillow, shower, misc trash on end table, etc.) and there was a roach issue. All in the kitchen and living area, crawling on the walls, floor, counters and couch. That was unsettling. Aside from that it was a nice house. Though I wouldn’t likely stay again. Thanks!!

A sad time for us.

The location was great. but there were small roaches inside. On our arrival we got a phone call that my mother in law had dies. So we stayed one night and then had to travel home. but the coffee maker did not work that morning. I wish we could have gotten some money back or a voucher to use at another time. I understand the rules but a death should be an excuse to get some sort of a refund.

Last Minute Fort Morgan Getaway

I hesitated to rent due to the last couple of reviews in regard to cleanliness. Unfortunately, they were right. The place was cute but could have been cleaned better. The carpet needs to be replaced…it is stained up pretty bad. I had to unload the dishwasher from previous guest. That should have been handles prior to my arrival. We did not need the extra room downstairs, which is good due to the smell from that area. The view is beautiful as long as you look straight ahead. Houses on both sides of the property are dilapidated. That’s really a shame. I am one that reads EVERY SINGLE REVIEW and should know better. I would not rent again.

It was okay.

This wasn’t our best stay. I’ll start with the positives. -this fishing was wonderful -the view was beautiful -the location was great -it was a roof over our head and a shower to shower in. The negatives: -the cleaning crew showed up at 3:30 and check in was supposed to be at 4:00. She was not done with the upstairs until 5:00. we had a 5 month old sitting in the car the whole time with an adult waiting to be able to even get him inside the house. Unacceptable for the amount of money being paid. -the house was dirty. The rugs were disgusting. The rug in front of the washer was soaked. When we picked it up there was black on the floor. The floor wasn’t mopped before we came in. It looks like she just changed the bed sheets and picked up dishes. Not even sure if the cleaning crew swept. -the downstairs bedroom is so musty it’s hard to bear, there is also ants all on the couch. -the downstairs shower was gross and smelt awful. -trash from the people before us was left on the outside(to go boxes, lids from milkshakes) due to the cleaning crew rushing. For spending the amount of money we spent, I felt like we should’ve had a clean place to stay. Thank you.

Great place on the bay to base your stay in the Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores area. Nice dock and covered area under the house to cookout and enjoy the evenings. Wish we had more time to enjoy.
