Highlights
Sandpiper is a beautiful, second tier home in the desirable Morgantown beach community. The beach access boardwalk is basically at the end of the driveway of this 1 story 5 bedroom, 4 bath home. So, you can go from looking at the view to being in the picture in no time at all. The spacious deck, with ample seating, provides the perfect spot for sunset watching and star gazing. Pro Tip: No need to pack for the day when you head to the beach. When you are this close, it's super easy to return for additional supplies.

Sandpiper features an open floor plan with a large living, dining and kitchen area. The kitchen has granite counter tops and top of the line appliances. The 5 bedrooms orbit the living area in this one-story home. The King primary has a private bath with separate shower and a double sink. There is also balcony access from this room. Two of the other bedrooms have Queen beds and private baths. The 4th and 5th bedrooms share a bath. One has a Queen bed and the other, two Twin beds. In all, Sandpiper will comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests.

Fort Morgan and 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.
Fort Morgan fishing pier is now open, and anglers will have access to convenient inshore fishing and the abundant species locally available.
Be sure and visit nearby Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge with over 7,000 acres of coastal habit. You'll be able to hike through the preserve and observe local flora and fauna. There are 4 trails, varying in size and terrain, and you'll definitely want to make time to visit this natural oasis.

Dog hair
The place was nice. But lots of dog hair. Vacuumed and the vacuum smelled like wet dog. Just a heads up, other than that everything was good

Perfect 50th Birthday Celebration
We had a wonderful time staying at Sandpiper! The layout of the house was perfect for our group of 9. The walk to the beach is quick and the ice maker was a fun addition! We will definitely be staying here again!

Nice and Easy
Property was nice and pretty clean. Pictures on listing do the add justice. Seemed to represent what you were getting relatively well. The walk to the beach was less then what I thought it would be looking at satellite images. Coastal view (management company) needs some work on their app. They send you a bunch of emails telling you to get their app but there is no information on that app and it’s basically useless. Had to use the Vrbo app to get in touch with manger to get the door code which was painless but a little slow because my phone had little reception.

We had a wonderful time and the house was very well kept and clean. Kitchen full stocked and the ice maker was great as the one in the freezer doesn’t work. Linda the property manager came by and we had a wonderful talk with several suggestions to make this home even better. Would suggest if bringing your four legged baby bring something to block the top of the stairs or a long tether. Our fur baby had just as much fun as we did. We absolutely will book here again!!!!

Great Family Vacation Spot!
We truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful beach home. There was plenty of room for everyone and it was very clean. I would highly recommend this place for anyone’s family vacation. Great ocean views and location especially if you have little ones. Our dog so loved playing in the ocean and relaxing in the home too. We will definitely be back again!

50th Birthday Celebration Success!
Property is in a quiet neighborhood away from busy tourist areas, which is exactly what we wanted. Bedrooms were spacious, kitchen well equipped and everything is on one level. Lovely front porch where we enjoyed the breeze coming off the ocean. I hope to visit again some day soon!
