About this property

Great views - Pools/Pets/Beach!

Diamondmine is not on a beachfront lot but it is located directly on the sand with no streets to cross. There is a walking easement from the house to the water. Two homes, All In and All in Too sit on either side but Diamondmine does have great Gulf views. Please refer to the aerial shot to view the exact location.

Highlights

Diamondmine is a 7 bedroom (4 king-sized beds!), 6 bath home that sits directly on the sand! No streets to cross to get to the beach and you'll love the convenience of being able to return to the house if you need to replenish supplies or just take a break from the sun. This custom home is well designed and beautifully decorated and you'll quickly fall in love with your new "home away from home". Guests love that the home is spacious and very well appointed, and they appreciate that the beach is sparsely populated. Pro-Tip: No need to use the neighborhood beach access boardwalks. There is a walking easement that will take you directly to the water!

The Space

The owner really has thought of everything. When you enter from the deck, you'll find a handy ""mudroom"" unit. Perfect for beach towels, hats, bags and sunglasses. Everything will be readily available for the next trek to the beach.

Hard surface flooring makes it easy to keep the sand under control and you'll find loads of seating for mealtime. Counter seater, bar seating and a custom-made dining table. All featuring contemporary silver chairs.

The kitchen will please the chefs in the group with gorgeous quartz countertops, huge refrigerators, 2 microwaves and even 2 dishwashers that will make entertaining a large group seem effortless. Bonus! There is even a separate ice maker!

Feel free to dine al fresco at the picnic table located on the deck.

Diamondmine has 3 Master King Suites with view, 1 King with view, 1 Guest Queen, and two bunk rooms. In addition, there is a hallway TV seating area for kids. There are 9 flat screen TVs mounted collectively on the walls of Diamondmine.

Main Floor: (K) Primary w/ private bath w/ walk in shower - (Q) w/ hall bath

The owner has purchased the two oceanfront lots in front of Diamondmine to protect the beautiful views from this outstanding home. Two narrow homes, flanking far left and far right, are currently being constructed. Guests at Diamondmine will continue to enjoy the awesome views. We are excited about this news and so pleased that the spectacular view will be preserved forever. Continue to check back for updated photos.

* Renter must be at least 25 years of age. Guests under 25 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

For your safety and protection, this home is equipped with 2 two exterior cameras underneath the house.

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. Diamondmine is pet friendly and so are the Morgantown beaches so the whole family can join in the fun!

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 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.

Great accommodations for High School soccer team
Out boys high school soccer team and two coaches stayed here during a 4 day tournament in Foley. The location was perfect to give the boys access to the beach while secluded enough for the coaches to relax. The property is amazing and coach already wants to book it for next years tournament.

Family Beach Trip
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year to stay at Diamondmine. It is a wonderful house and location for a good family trip. It’s an easy walk right across the sand to the beach. There are plenty of rooms and bathrooms to accommodate a large group. The property manager and owner responds very quickly to any problem or request. The upstairs water wouldn’t warm up and I texted the property manager. There was a worker and the owner at the house very promptly. They did not hesitate and replaced the hot water heater in no time. Thanks again for all you did to make this another great beach trip.

There was plenty of room and we spent hours on the deck drinking coffee, eating, visiting and enjoying the view! Location was great and easy to get to. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and cooked several meals. It was nice having two fridges and two fish washers. This place has a lot to offer! You won’t be sorry for staying here!

Beautiful home
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is gorgeous and the location is perfect! Everything was clean and the management company was wonderful! Great communication and anytime we had a question it was answered immediately. We’ve been coming to this area for the past 7/8 years and this was by far the best one! We had a small group- 3 adults, but this home is huge and would be perfect for a large family. The beach is steps away, and the large porch facing the beach was our favorite spot to be. The area was quiet and relaxing. I cannot say enough how perfect this place is! We will definitely be return customers! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

2023 family vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second time of renting this property. We love the house and DeeDee was awesome very helpful arranging a motorized wheelchair for my handicapped family members after arriving and finding no walkway! The pictures shown of view totally inaccurate. Every day our view was of trash and multiple vehicles and construction. We’re a family with construction background and would never leave the site at days end without cleaning up the debris!Inside of house was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the local seafood at Hangout,LuLu’s, and Salty bass

Great spot in Ft Morgan!
Our family of 18 gathered here for a week Long Beach vacay and the house was perfect! Location was great as it was just steps from the beach but only a 15 minute drive to Gulf Shores. Tennis courts and pools in the neighborhood were a great benefit. The property manager was fantastic! She was so helpful and answered any questions immediately! We would stay here again.

Very nice house!
A great stay with pros and cons Pros: excellent area, ver accessible and clean. It was a large home that could accommodate my group of friends. The house manager was always fast to a response. The beds, bathrooms and living areas were nicely kept. The kitchen was a dream and the 2 fridges were definitely well used for the amount of food we had brought. We loved that there was an outdoor shower and a hose so we could keep our house clean and there was plenty of parking space. Cons: The neighbors are very nosy up ahead near the beach. They would often stare and spy on us, sometimes with binoculars as well as taking several pictures of us, which made us feel a bit uncomfortable. They seemed to not mind their own business, and tried calling complaints on us when we were following all the rules. Some of the amenities were probably aged. For example we were going to grill burgers and (1) the grill wasn’t cleaned out and (2) as soon as we got a fire going in it, the grill collapsed on itself. Another example were some of the chairs on the deck that broke as soon as we sat on them. Overall a wonderful place and a wonderful trip!

A Christmas to Remember
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Diamondmine. The rental was spacious and open enough for our family to constantly interact during the Christmas weekend. The view of the Gulf water was outstanding, the kitchen had everything you needed to prepare and store meals and the bedrooms were so nice. The floors were a little dirty/sandy, only one motion light worked at night going up and down the steps during our stay, a few other minor things that were addressed & other than that a great stay. Would definitely rent this house again.

Beach vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Diamondmine is a good large group/family vacation home. The open kitchen/living room design is really great for getting everyone in the same place for meals or enjoying a football game on tv. The bedroom layout is well designed as well with the bunk rooms being wonderful for the children. The proximity of the beach to the house was also good for taking young children to the beach. The property manager was extremely helpful and accessible. I would definitely recommend this property.

2022 beach Vacation… cheaper than Therapy
This vacation was just what a bunch of nurses needed! All friends and have worked together for many years. The vacation spot was beautiful and the house was large enough for all ten of us! Some beds we didn’t even use. Close to beach front. Huge back porch to sit on at night. Close to orange beach and local attractions and lots of shopping! We will keep this property in mind for next vacation! Pool close by but took car there. The showers and the bed mattresses were wonderful!
