About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Peaceful bungalow and birdwatcher's paradise 1/2 mile to the Gulf beach.

If you love wooded nature and the beach, you will love the "Sea Shire," Located off the road, nestled in a generally wooded, low-key beach neighborhood - only about a 1/2 mile - to the beautiful white sandy Gulf beaches. Those that appreciate natural beach habitats will enjoy the tranquil and active wildlife setting at our Ft Morgan guest house.
Great seafood/shrimp on Ft. Morgan and top-rated public golf courses right in the neighborhood, the Shire is well equipped and outfitted for your long weekend, or weekly summer stays. Great snow bird opportunities for guests as well. Monthly always available,

Sea Shire has 2 bedrooms, each with a full bath. One bedroom has a Queen/Twin bunk bed. The other having a King bed. The Shire can accommodate up to 5 people.

We do have two other guest houses in Ft Morgan (one on the same road, another 8 mi. west on Ft Morgan Rd ) if you want to include friends and family.

This Beach and area is spectacular, just a great place to stay and relax.

Great experience

The house was very clean and stocked with more than I expected. Great location just a few minutes from Gulf Shores but very quiet. Short walk to a beautiful beach that is much less crowded than the main public beach. Property manager was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

Peaceful paradise!

This location was perfect, the yard, the house itself and the secluded beach just a short walk away! The ducks and beautiful birds…very natural setting while still being a short drive to activities of town if wanted. I highly recommend this home if you are wanting to truly get away from a busy lifestyle! Even the color scheme and decor of the house invited you to breathe easy and relax! There were no condiments stocked at the time we were there so maybe make a grocery list after checking in.
