About this property

5 BR/4 BA, Sleeps 20, Private Pool, on Beach


This calming retreat, located on the Gulf beach in Fort Morgan, Alabama, features a 5 bedroom (+ sleeping loft), 4 bathroom home that sleeps 20. This property is the East side unit of a duplex ("Beachside"), that includes a very large private pool shared only with the other side of the duplex, and uniquely offers views of both the Gulf and the Mobile Bay.

Beachside East is a two level home with an open floorplan, fully equipped kitchen, spacious bedrooms, screened in porch and pool. The first level features the main living space, with a large kitchen, dining room, living room and access to the screened porch. The first level also includes a Gulf-view King suite with a full bathroom that opens onto the porch, a second King bedroom and another full bathroom. The living room has a new 55-inch flat screen tv, and each bedroom has its own tv.

The second level includes a sleeping loft with a full-size daybed and twin trundle, a Bay-view bunk room with two sets of bunk beds, a jack-and-jill bathroom, a spacious Gulf-view bedroom with two queen beds, and the Master King suite. The beautifully renovated Master Suite is enormous, featuring a King bed, desk and tv, and a completely new bathroom with a tile walk-in shower and granite countertops. The views from the Master Suite are unbeatable. Take a peak at the Mobile Bay from the bathroom, and enjoy the amazing Gulf views from the bedroom or from the covered porch attached to the Master suite and the 2 Queen Bedroom.

Convenience is key with the pool and the beach just steps from the house. The pool deck is large enough to serve meals, play games and soak up the sun. Swim laps or just lounge in the huge pool while the little ones enjoy the small wading pool attached to it. A short boardwalk leads directly to the open, white sand where you can set up an umbrella or tent and chairs, kayak, fish, search for sea shells, or just relax on the beach.

High speed wireless internet (Wi-Fi) throughout the house.

We would love for you experience the peaceful paradise of Fort Morgan Beach and see our newly renovated property. Please contact us with any questions and we will respond right away!

September 2024 Family Vacation
Our 2024 beach vacation was a success. The online description of the house was spot on. The beach is literally 100 steps from the back door, which is our #1 priority. The pool was a good size for our family of 6 adults and 5 grandkids to enjoy as a break from the beach. There was not anyone staying in the other unit, so we didn't have to share. Loved the patio chairs and tables - sitting in the chairs I could see over the rail without having to stand up. There was plenty of parking for our 2 large trucks and mid-sized SUV; and two will fit under the house with plenty of room to open doors. We cooked all meals there instead of eating out, and we needed a couple larger skillets and another gallon pitcher for tea. We needed some plastic cups for the kids; plastic plates and bowls were provided. We always bring extra throw covers - the A/C worked very well. The host is very efficient and responded to our calls and texts promptly. This house is very spacious. We love the Fort Morgan area ... it's quiet and very, non-commercialized. We would definitely rent this house again.

Excellent location on the beach. Perfect deck to view the beach and pool. Need to fix the screens on the porch. Pool needs to run longer to help with the clearness of the water and the lights in the pool needs to have the timer replaced. Overall the week was great. Can't control the weather or the sea creatures.

We love this place!
This was our 2nd year to stay here and when we walked in the kids said " Home away from home". That's exactly what it feels like. It's beautiful and clean and we have our own spaces and you walk outside to a pool and a beach. No hassle with parking, elevators etc. just another family on the other side of the duplex but we have been very fortunate the past 2 years with our shared families!

A nice stay.
The weather has taken its toll on the outside and the inside needs a thorough deep clean. The property was nice but definitely needs some TLC. However, it was a nice stay and a much needed get away for our family. We did have a small issue and called the property manager, she immediately took care of it.

The McDaniel's week at the beach
great location. neighbors were great. no problems sharing the pool. a few repairs should be noted. the main sloding door is a beast to deal with and it will not lock. the screen door was and has been abused by the wind and coud use a repair job. the freezer drawer has difficulty locking and tends to alarm when it has not been used, probably not fixable. we are already scheduled for next year. we did enjoy our 25th year at the beach.

Great location BUT had some issues
I want to be sure to give a holistic review without it being unrealistically negative, but also experienced some issues I think prospective renters should know. The GOOD: awesome location as far as proximity to beach, HUGE pool that was great for the kids. The not so good: The property was littered with garbage (felt 3rd worldish in some ways), I had to fix the dyer when we arrived (wasn't connected to the wall vent and wasn't working appropriately), the windows in one of the bedroom leaked during a rainstorm, lots of peeling paint on the sliding door which was bad for the kids, the porch is a nightmare as far as kids and splinters (I spent more time removing splinters than I did at the beach it felt like), sand overflowed the dunes into the pool which made the pool feel dirty, one of the couches was broken when we got there and was hard to sit on, there were no matress pads on some beds (gross!), we experienced a mouse in the kitchen (not the type of excitement we were expecting). Overall the location is great - the beach was pristine and the big pool was an awesome plus. BUT, the the property was dirty and littered, the house was dated, and the wood porch was a nightmare with dangerous boards sticking up and lots of splinters, and several items in the house weren't working as they should have been.

Great Family House
This property is great for families. My family rented the East side and our friends rented the West side and it was the perfect location for funny in Fort Morgan and surrounding areas. The pool was great for the days we didn't want to be on the beach and the view is excellent! Would highly recommend this house and would stay again. The house is stocked with necessities for to cover the first 24 hours so make sure to pack TP, paper towels, trash bags, dish soap, beach chairs and umbrellas.

Could be great
All in all this property fit the needs of our large family and has great views. but if you have anyone with breathing issues I would find another place. The upstairs has mold growing around a window and around the ceiling lights. The whole house smells muggy, assuming from more mold growing.

Plenty of room and things to do
Great place, plenty of space for everyone. We brought 13 kids and grandkids, they loved the pool and beach everyday. We've been vacationing in gulf shores for 15 years, first time staying in Fort Morgan, loved being out of the main crowd and still had plenty of things to do.

Perfection
Great place to stay!! Rental was as described. Plenty of room for 13 guests. All Furniture and beds were comfortable. Home was clean and well stocked with all of the dishes and extras you could need. Pool was great for the kids. Perfect spot on the beach that was very quiet and private. Only suggestion is an ice machine. Fridge couldn’t produce enough ice for the amount of people and it’s a little drive back and forth to the store daily for bags of ice for the coolers.
