The Highlights
Stop the presses! Your search for the perfect beach vacation destination has just ended. Great beach views? Check! About a 30 second walk to the beach access boardwalk? Check! Massive deck for outdoor living? Check! Totally updated home? Check! Located at the end of a quiet cul de sac, this recently updated home is just steps from the beach access boardwalk. You will appreciate the newly expanded beach view deck with a variety of comfortable seating. We especially love the views of the beach, sunsets and, if you're lucky, the Blue Angels. Pro-Tip: Because you are so close, enjoy that morning coffee or evening cocktail on the beach.
The Space
When you arrive, the first thing you'll notice when you arrive at Dreamscape is the large deck with loads of seating. What's your pleasure? Rocker, sofa or captain's chair? Take your pick, they are all available options. Because the deck is partially covered, you can relax in the sun or the shade, whichever you prefer!
Step inside this adorable single-story cottage and you'll find a very comfortable living space with loads of comfortable seating for lounging, TV watching or catching up on that beach read. And that custom ceiling is a work of art!
Gorgeous stone countertops, stainless appliances and the always popular coffee/wine bar make dining in a pleasure. Plenty of room at the table and counter so the entire group can enjoy mealtime together. Off the kitchen is a convenient power bath as well as a full-sized washer and dryer.
Dreamscape includes a primary king room with Gulf views and a private bath, a bedroom with two full beds and a bunk room with a full over full and twin over twin bunk beds. Altogether, Dreamscape sleeps 12 lucky vacationers.

Fort Morgan & Morgantown
Morgantown is a lovely, unique seaside community featuring two swimming pools, a kiddie pool, two lighted tennis/pickleball courts and several beach access boardwalks. When you first arrive, you'll notice pride of ownership in this pastel colored, beautifully landscape neighborhood. Guests really enjoy walking and biking along the quiet streets and many rent golf carts and enjoy sunset drives. If you have small children or just prefer the convenience of parking close to the beach, there is a public lot just to the west of Morgantown.
Located a scenic 15 miles from Gulf Shores, you'll find everything you need close at hand. Dollar General and Sassy Bass Market are just a few miles away and have all the basics you might need. There are several restaurants nearby offering a variety of tasty dishes. Tacky Jack's, Sassy Bass (2 locations), Coast and brand-new Jesse's (opening soon) to name a few. Some venues even offer live, local entertainment.

Wonderful stay at Dreamscape!
We love staying in the Morgantown community & this rental was perfect for just my husband & myself (& our cute little pup). There was plenty of space and if we come again, we’ll probably invite along friends or family to join us. So many dishes and cookware items to use. They kindly include two beach-ready wagons. We love the closeness to the beach without the significant price tag. Dog friendly is key for us & this space was great for us.
Only a few things I’d change: most of the rentals we’ve stayed at had a small stash of cooking spices and/or sprays, but this does not. Only salt & pepper! The other thing is the thread count of the sheets in the master is more like sandpaper, so if that matters to you, maybe bring your own set!
Like we said! Loved it & we’ll be back!!

Mixed Emotions
This property is stunning. Absolutely perfect beach house. Unfortunately, 4 out of 5 guests experienced feeling poorly while in the house. 3 had to leave early from this trip. The property's manager was incredibly helpful and offered the use of an ozone machine to mitigate mold. When asked if mold was an issue, 3 places where mold had previously been were listed off. The floor had multiple squishy spots under the locations mold had been mentioned. We were told the floors were being replaced at the end of the season despite them looking brand new.

Beautiful beach location
Great proximity to the beach! Best stocked kitchen of any property we’ve stayed at! Clean and welcoming home. Nice pools and safe neighborhood. We went for walks and runs in the evenings and felt very safe. The beach was clean and nice. Only thing I would mention is if you have a taller vehicle it may not fit in the under the home parking space available. We loved that the home had a hose and shower under the home to wash off the sand after the beach. The home even had some beach toys and a wagon to use during our stay! Would definitely book again!

Excellent location with a wonderful front porch for enjoying morning coffee and relaxing evenings. Kitchen was very well equipped for those who like cooking and the floorplan is well suited for a couple with teens. We had a wonderful time at this property.

Loved our stay here
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home. It was literally a 30 second walk to the beach! The house was situated on the second tier but you could still see the ocean between the front row homes. It was wonderful sitting there at night on the porch and listen to the waves crash. The house was very clean and renovated beautifully. I especially loved the ceilings in the living room! The house is further away from the main road, which is what we wanted. So it is a much quieter neighborhood. We were also closer to the ferry, so we took that opportunity to travel to Dauphin Island, which was a nice day trip. I highly recommend this house if you want close proximity to the beach and a lovely house to stay in.
