This beachfront cottage is located about 12 miles from Gulf Shores and next door to the Bon Secour National Wildlife refuge. It's also one of the most private and well-equipped homes you can find in this area! You can enjoy the unparalleled serenity of being on the beach and yet be within minutes of the substantial amenities that have come to pass in the Gulf Shores and the Panhandle. Golf courses abound, water sports thrive, fishing is world-class (with charter boats readily available from local captains), and amusement and theme parks of a substantial nature are all available.

This dog-friendly home hosts a large, beachfront deck on the front of the cottage and is perfect for enjoying the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets! Work on your tan on one of the beach chairs and rocking chairs, catch up on that novel you brought along, or simply take a midday nap. Inside, this coastal gem offers an inviting living room with comfortable furniture, a flatscreen TV with cable with approximately 45 channels (and growing!), and carpeted floors. Let your friends chill and unwind while you put on the chef's apron and treat them to an unforgettable meal prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen. It's complete with all the essentials, including two coffee makers (standard and Keurig) and a dishwasher. The first level of the home hosts two well-equipped bedrooms and a shared full bath. Upstairs is a loft area with a nice and cozy sleeping nook.

Grandma's House

Overall nice little place, it has the homey feel of visiting an older relatives place. One that the home has been in the family for generations, it is in a great location. Quite area ample amount of restaurants to choose from.

Fine Fish House is a real treat

The setting of the beach home - on the gulf with direct view of the gulf in a rather secluded area is the best. Sitting on the deck anytime listening to the sound of the waves with a nice breeze is so enjoyable - actually meditative for us.

Great location.

Fabulous location. Fine Fish house is one of the best locotions right on the beach, very quiet and convenient to town or fine dining. Really the only complaint we would have would be the deck is due to be replaced. Worn out and loose boards and railing is pretty loose.

I loved the location of the house! The house just needs more mirrors for everyone to get ready with. With so many guest each room needs a mirror. Everything else was great!

Fine Fish House is a must!

We had the best time at Fine Fish House. Morning & evening walks on the beach seemed to be our favorite. House seemed to have all the extras, was kid & pet friendly. We have plans to be back for yearly visits.

Great location, minimal amenities

Location of the house is great. Easy walk to the beach. Quiet area. No real effort in updating the furniture, bathroom, kitchen and beds. I would only stay here if I planned on being out of the house all day at the beach. As long as you know what you’re getting in to before booking. The price is good but it’s good for a reason.

Little Piece of Heaven

My husband and I have been coming to Fort Morgan now for over 14 years now. We have made it a tradition to celebrate Thanksgiving here for the past four years. Find fish house is now one of our favorite places to stay now!! Everything was wonderful… Location, cleanliness, and it was so cozy! We are also thankful that we’re able to bring our fur baby with us because she is such a part of our family. We will definitely be coming back! We’re also very impressed with the property managers. They checked in on us periodically, and were very easy to communicate with! Thank you again for a wonderful getaway!!

Nice location - Needs some TLC - AC wasn't sufficient at all!

I loved the location, I loved the beach, I loved that management attempted to help us. The heat was pretty rough, although doable. 2 Window Units and central AC kept the house at about 78F until around midnight. We kept blinds closed and did our part to get the house at the right temp before the heat of the day, but did not matter. We did have a burning rubber or tar-like smell that would get pretty strong during the hottest part of the day and evening, but could not find source. Called the number for about 45 mins on day 1 and then gave up. Called the next day, waited for 30 mins, then sent an email, then was able to get someone. A lady came out, she was kind, took pictures of ac filter and put in work order. She said she would send a maintenance guy out to look at the unit because she stated that this wasn't normal, but no one came or followed up. That being said, it was a holiday weekend so we understood. Bottom line: we weren't there to relax in the house, we were there for the beach. And it was a blast. Overall, I'd recommend a Vacasa property, but I would not recommend this house. It's overpriced for what you get. Vacasa does need to get better at being available and attentive when an issue arises, if this was issue that involved a broken unit or something like burning wires, electrical, it would've been bad for all parties.

Excellent stay with everything you could ask for. A comfortable home at the beach. We will come back

We had our two children and our two dogs with us, and everyone absolutely loved this home. We spend our time at the beach everyday, very dog friendly atmosphere and the beach is just a minute from the house. You could hear the waves from the inside, and the patio was wonderful having your morning coffee or reading a book, or just watching the ocean. The house was clean, with comfortable beds and kitchen had all supplies to cook all your meals. We will definitely come back to the Fine Fish House, already planning next vacation stay there.

Perfect for a laid back couple and their mutt.

Great proximity to the beach. Super cute and comfortable. Laid back and relaxed. Affordable. Loved the porch. Provided an excellent opportunity for stargazing. Off the beaten path but close enough to town to sight see, eat, and spend money on trinkets and treasures. Appreciated the dragon kite in the downstairs closet. We suggest you give it a whirl.

Perfect location for our family.

This house is an older charming house in the perfect location. The beach access here is quieter than any other vacation rental spot on Fort Morgan. The homeowner provided basic amenities that we didn't think about, such as trash bags, dishwasher tabs, etc. Will definitely come back!

Reinvestment in the Property would be Helpful

The house itself was clean! As clean as the cleaning crew could make a house with torn and worn out carpet at the beach. The floors need to be updated so that you feel comfortable in your stay. The carpet is also coming apart at the seems in many places. A general updating would help make this property a real gem to stay in. We also had trouble with the stool getting stopped up and had to use the plunger that was supplied several times. The location is great as you are close to town as well as several good places to eat. The beach is also a close walk.
