Playful Pelican, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Pet Friendly

It’s time to get away from it all!

The PLAYFUL PELICAN is located in Fort Morgan which is one of the quieter areas of the Alabama Gulf Coast, and one of the few areas where dogs are welcome. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home is a mere two-minute stroll to the sugar white beaches with no roads to cross and no traffic to negotiate. Unlike Gulf Shores, Fort Morgan is known for less traffic, and less noise. There are fewer people on the beach even during the peak summer season. Why spend your vacation in a busy tourist trap when the Fort Morgan beaches offer a chance for real peace and quiet? We strive to provide complete relaxation with your comfort being a high priority. Come make your next memories at the PLAYFUL PELICAN. The sand and surf await you!
