Summary:
Do you remember a time when you went or saw pictures of the beach with no high rise condos and you could see the blue sky and land for miles? Fort Morgan in Gulf Shores offers that nostalgic feel and only 15min to the hustle and bustle of inner Gulf Shores. This location is perfect for a family that wants a low key/low maintenance vacation from traffic and people.
The Space:
This private beach house is located in the Fort Morgan area of Gulf Shores, offering a quieter stretch of coastline with open views and low-density surroundings. The setting is well suited for guests who prefer a relaxed pace while remaining within a short drive of dining and attractions in Gulf Shores.
The home includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, arranged for comfort and flexibility. The primary bedroom is a spacious, open room with a king bed and a queen sleeper sofa. French doors lead directly to a beach-facing patio, and a seating area provides a quiet spot to enjoy the view. The primary bathroom also houses the laundry area for convenience.
Two additional guest bedrooms each include queen beds and share a full bathroom with a walk-in shower. The central den serves as the main gathering space, with windows facing the Gulf and patio. Seating includes a queen sleeper sofa and two recliners positioned for viewing the smart TV.
