Sandy Shores: Newly renovated! 300 yards to Ft. Morgan beach! Dog Friendly!
Experience coastal charm in this newly renovated beach cottage, nestled in the scenic Fort Morgan dunes with great views of the Gulf of Mexico. A 2-minute walk via a direct beach access path brings you to Alabama's beautiful white sand beach. Fort Morgan is a low density beach so you can enjoy walking the shoreline, surf fishing, body surfing the waves, or simply relax in the sun. Enjoy stunning views from the sundeck and wash away the sand and saltwater in the private outdoor shower. With a fully equipped kitchen and gas grill on the deck, you can enjoy your fresh catch from the gulf (or seafood market). This is a great setup for two families or a multi-generational family with two bedrooms featuring king-sized beds and a bunk room with two sets of twin bunkbeds.
The property is located 15 miles from downtown Gulf Shores and 6 miles from the Mobile Bay Ferry (Fort Morgan - Dauphin Island). While the beach and the gulf are the primary attraction of the Fort Morgan area, there are plenty of options for fine dining and family fun in the area.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Peaceful spring break
Stay was in a peaceful area. Brought my pet with me and he enjoyed the beach time. Good space for 3 adults and 3 children. I would definitely stay at this location again.

Sandy Shores
It's a lovely place to stay with great views, peaceful area and very short walk to the beach. It is advertised as 300 yards to the beach but we don't think it was even a hundred yards.

Perfect spot for a family getaway
We had a fantastic trip and loved staying in this property. The house was nice, very clean. We had more than enough room for our family of 5. The kids walked back and forth to the ocean all day with no problems. The best part about this location is that there aren’t any big condos nearby. We stayed over Labor Day weekend and were shocked at how empty the beach was. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Hidden Gem
We had a wonderful stay at Fort Morgan! The house was everything you need in a Beach house. View of the ocean and a short walk to the water makes it a great place for families! Amenities were great and the Outdoor shower is amazing! Would highly recommend for any families that want a get away to the beach and not have to fight the crowds!
