About this property

Bayfront Vacation Home!

  • Beautiful waterfront vacation home with gorgeous views of Mobile Bay in the Fort Morgan area. Enjoy magnificent sunsets from the deck and fishing from the pier. There are 3 bedrooms (one on main floor and two upstairs) and 2 full baths in this home which comfortably sleeps 6. Well equipped kitchen to prepare meals with open gathering space with plenty of seating. Enjoy the privacy of Ft Morgan but still close enough to enjoy all of the shopping, restaurants, and entertainment that Gulf Shores has to offer. Close to public boat launches and a historical Civil War Fort to explore along with other historical sites. This home is close to restaurants/shops at The Beach Club and other popular restaurants such as Tacky Jacks II, The Sassy Bass, Sassy Bass Island Grill, Kiva Grill, etc.
    Fort Morgan Marina is only 6.9 miles away where you can choose from charter fishing, sightseeing cruises, or watercraft rentals.
    Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge is 4 miles away where visitors can enjoy the beach on the Gulf of Mexico, walk nature trails, and observe birds and wildlife.
    If you enjoy golf - Kiva Dunes Resort and Golf is less than a mile away and The Peninsula Golf and Racquet Club is 7 miles away.
    The "tourist area" of Gulf Shores is 13 miles to the east where you will find all of the typical beach town experiences such as mini golf, go kart track, restaurants, ice cream shops, souvenir shops, festivals, etc. Other area attractions within day driving distance include Waterville USA, the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, The Park at OWA, The Wharf and shopping at Foley Tanger Outlets.

We loved this house!! Our family of four (two young-ish) kids and our dog visited for 5 days and it was a perfect fit for us. The space was cozy, clean and everything functioned as it should. The beds were comfy, kitchen was well stocked, and we loved having the ceiling fans everywhere! We enjoyed spending time on the dock searching the waters for jellyfish, hermit crabs and fish. We come to Fort Morgan often but have never stayed on the bay side before. This was a nice change of pace, different views and Bon Secour entry points were a close enough drive that we didn’t miss a thing. Thank you for opening your home to us! It was a treat!

Our week here was very relaxing! Being steps away from the bay/water was wonderful & being able to fish from the dock was fantastic. We loved seeing dolphins playing every day & the herons that frequent the area. Being able to watch the sunrises & sunsets from the property was amazing. Being able to sit on the deck or downstairs patio & enjoy the view all day is our favorite thing about the property. (Our only disappointment was the mold that we saw on all of the A/C vents.)

We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and comfortable. It was quiet and relaxing. Would have loved it if there was a ladder off the dock to get in the water. Would stay here again!

Cute spot on the water

We had a very nice and peaceful stay. Lots of room and perfect for a small family. Very close to Fort Morgan Beach. Only negative was the tv in the living room but not that big of a deal because we were there for the view. Easy check in and no problems at all. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay!

We loved this house! It was great! Our 16 year old and my husband caught so many fish off of the pier at all hours of the day. I loved the décor in the house! It was a short drive to the beach and everything you could need is within a ten minute drive. Great place!!!!

Gorgeous sunsets

It was convenient to Gulf Shore and the restaurants and beach. Very nicely decorated. Needs some updates like a new refrigerator and other items, but spoke to the owners father and they will be making those repairs. Loved the location.

Clean and comfortable stay

This property is close to everything, but not in the middle of the tourist area of Gulf Shores. It was clean and has an updated bathroom and kitchen. The only criticisms I have is that the glass side entry door neet a privacy shade and the laundry area needs to be updated. For the price and location, I would recommend.

Privacy with a view

We really enjoyed this bay front home. Our favorite thing about this home was the location! Beautiful view, away from the crowd, plenty of space for parking and turning around our kayak trailer. We also enjoyed the spacious living area with lots of comfortable seating to enjoy family time! The kitchen was well equipped, a plus for us because we like to cook our own meals. It fit our needs very nicely!!

Great bay getaway

This was a great place. Needs some tlc, but in general we loved the house, location and dock. I really loved the two living areas and the A/C is great. Made us feel like home. We will definitely consider it again next time. Very responsive owner. Thank you Shonna.

Great spot

We loved this location! We made the short drive to a lovely beach each morning and afternoon and enjoyed the views of the bay while at the house. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of room for our small family. You do have to walk through the bedroom with two twin beds to get to the other upstairs and bathroom. It was not a problem for us, but something good to know ahead of time. We would stay here again!

Not luxury but charming and everything else

Perfect location, private dock(if you like to fish, we caught trout, pompano and 4 other species frim it), 2 story 3 bedroom, large deck overlooking the bay. The place has not been updated since built, however, it was clean and had everything you need and it was near restaurants, yet private. If you're expecting the Ritz, better go elsewhere, but if you want a quiet place with a view for a reasonable rate, this is it.

Great for price, could have been better

The stay was fine. Went for fishing but weather was bad most of week. Great family time. The only downside had nothing to do with the place but the house being built 40 ft away. If you don't mind construction noise then this place is good for fishing.

Labor Day Getaway

Overall property was nice. Cleanliness inside could of been better such as dust bunnies in most corners. Enjoyed the dock fishing but definitely need to consider getting a ladder to get in and out of the water or off of Jet Ski like we had. Thankfully the kind neighbor offered us a ladder to use which made a huge difference. Overall nice place for the money. I would return.

cold & windy

came in Jan, thought it would be warmer/ we were there for 17 days and saw the sun for a total of 4 hours. Many of restaurant's were closed. Those that were open gave no discount for off-season. It was a very quiet place to stay... fun to watch the birds fishing, however we had no luck, with crab or fish . if you are looking to veg in a nice, clean house... this is it in January.
