Cozy Beach Cottage Commercial Ice Machine 5 star reviews for 8 years!


Welcome to the" Beach Bum" in Morgantown! Constructed in 2018 this 3 bedroom 2 bath home is located in Morgantown community of Fort Morgan area of Gulf Shores. The Beach Bum with its open and airy layout plan that comfortably sleeps 10. Located on gulf side of scenic Fort Morgan Road, this walking, bike, and golf cart friendly community is located between mile marker 6 and 7. Features 3 private beach accesses with boardwalks, golf cart parking and one public beach access with parking lot for cars, 2 Pools, tennis/pickle ball courts and basketball goal. One pool newly renovated. Also, Morgantown and its resident's practice “Leave Only Footprints." This is to protect wildlife, especially mama sea turtles who come ashore to nest between months of May and October. Enjoy this charming beach home furnished with everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We offer commercial ice machine, and beach cart not to mention beach toys and a well-stocked kitchen. From the Beach Bum, it is just a little over a block to the beach, tennis courts and pools. The short walk to beach (5-10 minutes due to how fast or slow you walk) you will see scenic wetlands, beautiful homes and variety of wildlife. You will not have any busy roads in beautiful laid-back Morgantown. Here life slows down and get ready for your troubles to lift off your shoulders. Open and airy floor plan includes 3 bedrooms which are master with king bed, memory foam mattress and master bath with walk in shower; queen bed with memory foam mattress in 2nd bedroom; 3rd bedroom features 2 full size beds with memory foam mattresses. Also have twin bunk alcove names "The Turtles Nest". Fun for the little ones with sea life mural on walls; but roomy and comfortable enough for 2 adults. Second bath has shower/tub combo located in area of these bedrooms. Each bedroom has a smart TV, also a smart TV located in living room. Charcoal grill is available for those grill masters. Front porch deck area you can watch stunning sunrises and sunsets in which you can hear waves crashing onto shore. If you are lucky enough, you may even get to see Blue Angels practice during the week. The back porch deck area looks over Morgan Lakes not necessarily a lake but marsh area which is a beautiful habitat. Who knows what wildlife you may get to observe while sitting back drinking your coffee or 5 o'clock somewhere drink. We have furnished our home with the essentials we like to make it as comfortable as possible.
Located away from crowded beaches and busy touristy downtown Gulf Shores but is only 15-20 minutes into town. If you don't feel like driving into town on a lazy beach day the Sassy Bass, Tacky Jacks, and upscale Jesse's on the Bay are 3 closets restaurants with delicious menu. Sassy Bass also has convenient store to pick up any needed essentials without having to go into town. Sassy Bass also has pizza delivery and they are delicious A Dollar General is just down the road. The full-service Fort Morgan marina is approximately 3 miles from Morgantown. Opportunities for everyone include fishing, swimming, kayaking, walking trails and golf courses are close by. History lovers can tour Fort Morgan at end of peninsula. Follow us on Facebook: The Beach Bum in Morgantown Gulf Shores AL.
Unfortunately, we do not rent to anyone younger than 23. This is family friendly area. If you are looking for a partying scene this is NOT the home for you. NO smoking and also this home is NOT pet friendly! We DO want you to have fun, relax and unwind!
Bring your own golf cart or rent one from Island Carts in Gulf Shores. (251)279-0718
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Wonderful, just what we needed!

We had a fantastic week! We had access to everything we needed - towels, dishes, spices, laundry, beach chairs/toys, etc on property and tennis, pickleball, biking, and easy access to the beach via the community. We were pleasantly surprised to find bean bag toss boards, which ended up being how we capped nearly every evening. The space in the house was great - everyone had plenty of room, and we could have easily had more stay with us. Communication was great throughout and we felt both prepared and supported. Thank you so much for the wonderful setting to slow down and be together!

2025 New Years is a Beach

The home was very well decorated and perfect for our needs with a comfortable master bedroom mattress. Note that the main TV could use updating. The home was equipped with everything one would need for a beach vacation. The location of the home was in a very nice beach subdivision where most homes were well kept. The beach was very convenient with the use of the owner's golf cart which was well appreciated.

So Relaxing

I looked at a lot of properties before I picked Beach Bum. The house was way bigger than what I needed, since it was just me, but it looked perfect. And it was. Other than the wonky stairs from the carport to the entry, this was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had traveling. I walked the beach every day, found some great restaurants, ate a lot of Waffle House grits, and relaxed, which is what I needed. I loved everything about this trip. And Beach Bum was a huge part of it.

Amazing Beach Trip!

We had the very best time celebrating my daughter’s 16th birthday! The house is so spacious! We appreciated having so many blankets for the night time golf cart rides and having all of the beach towels already there. We never had to unpack ours. There was hand soap at every sink and the kitchen was fully stocked, down to the electric skillet we used. Jennifer was easy to communicate with as well when we had questions. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely return!

Great house with a great beach

We loved the property and the layout of the house. It was nice to have the master separated from the guest bedrooms. Everything was in order and looks just like the listing photos. This was a great space for a family to comfortably relax and just a short ride to the beach! Would come back again.

Very comfortable

We had an amazing time at Beach Bum! We had everything we needed and the golf cart and ice machine was even better! Saved us from going out to get ice every day so I give 5 stars just for that! The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. There were no complaints from anyone in our party. Communication with Jennifer was on point! She made sure if we needed anything to just let her know and she was very fast with responses. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you so much Brad and Jennifer for sharing your home.

Bang for your buck!

I never write reviews, the place has to be absolutely horrible or fantastic. Well this place was fantastic! Our family stayed here for Memorial Day weekend and it was awesome! This place exceeds the pictures. It was clean, spacious and nice. Although we brought our own, It came with an air mattress and plenty of extra covers. This place came with the golf cart and 3 bikes (which the teens enjoyed riding to the beach). The neighbors were very nice and most of all we didn’t feel like we were being watched. We went to Tropic Falls while we were there and it’s about a 40 minute drive. Don’t just look hurry and book.

Relaxing Stay

This property was just as listed, spacious, clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for everyday living as well as items for the beach. The location was just a short walk to the beach and pool- even if we forgot something, it wasn't a big deal to run back to the house to get things. Would definitely return to this property if we're ever back in Fort Morgan.
