Walk to the beach! Pet friendly cottage/beach on Fort Morgan Peninsula.

Located on a quiet street on a private wooded lot just a block off the beach!! Easy walk to the beach with neighborhood beach access! Beach is pet friendly (dogs must be kept on a leash). This comfortable cottage has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The living room has a queen sleeper sofa for accommodating extra guests. The kitchen has granite countertops, all major appliances, and is stocked with basic utensils/kitchenware needed to prepare a meal. There is an office nook with a desk. Spacious, wrap-around, outdoor deck for sunbathing and relaxing. There is a convenient, outside shower for use after the beach.
Enjoy the beach and coastal area with a more relaxed pace at this property on the Fort Morgan Peninsula. Yet, still so much close by! Fort Morgan State Historic Site approximately 7 miles away.

Great little getaway

Very good stay for 4 people. We were even able to bring our 2 dogs- the beach and property are great for dogs. The listing says it sleeps 6, which is possible, but might be kinda crowded!! The outside shower was amazing!!

Fantastic Beach Vacation!

Perfect beach vacation location! One block from white sand beach that is pet friendly! Loved the cute cottage! Plenty of room and all the conveniences of home available. Comfortable, clean, relaxing! Lots of windows, light and airy, plus you could hear the ocean! We were so pleased with our stay! A special request concerning my pet was honored so kindly. Loved the layout of the cottage! Dollar General is 3 miles away and super convenient plus Gulf Shores is close for restaurants and activities. Fort Morgan is close for a nice visit! Can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! Thank you so much!

Charming

Cute little quant beach house. Could use some attention on nails popping on the deck and fixing the kitchen drawers so they could be accessible near the washer and dryer and most definitely ceiling fans for those warmer days..
