Now is a perfect time for a get-away to a beach house with a private pool nestled in the coastal dunes on the Fort Morgan peninsula in Gulf Shores, Alabama. You may relax on sun-drenched beaches at the Gulf of Mexico where glistening sand and rolling waves provide an escape to anyone looking for a refreshing place to vacation.
The screened porch across the front is ideal for lounging with morning coffee, catching an afternoon nap, or playing with the grandkids. A walk-around deck connects the screened porch to the patio and pool area. The tropically landscaped backyard surrounds the crystal waters of the in-ground pool.
