About this property
Morgan's Escape is the best location. Close to beach and pool!!!
'Morgans Escape' is a comfortable beach house located 200 yards from the beautiful private beach of Morgantown. You can sit on the swing or an Adirondack chair on the front porch (38 feet long) and listen to the ocean waves while enjoying Gulf views. The children can swim in the HEATED pool located right next to the house - or ride your bicycle along Fort Morgan Road, play Tennis or Pickleball or just walk along the beach and collect shells. You can do as much or as little as you want in Fort Morgan.
Fort Morgan is located on a 20 mile peninsula bordered to the north by Mobile Bay and to the South by the Gulf of Mexico and Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. There are several world class golf courses located within a few miles of the house (Kiva, Peninsula and Plantation). The Ft. Morgan Marina & Tacky Jacks restaurant are just down the road where you can launch your boat or book a fishing charter. Other restaurants include Jesse's On The Bay, Sassy Bass Amazin Grill and others. You can take a ferry to Dauphin Island for a day trip (visit the estuarium or just ride bikes). Other area activities include shopping at Tanger Outlet Mall, visiting the waterpark in Gulf Shores or OWA, going on a Dolphin cruise, or playing miniature golf.
There are many excellent restaurants in the Fort Morgan/Gulf Shores area and a wide selection of Arts & Antiques stores in the city of Fairhope - about 45 minutes away.
'Morgans Escape' has a large kitchen and living area with plenty of room for the family to visit and have fun. Two bedrooms open to a back deck. There's a large dining table and a card table for games. Also a Shower, swing, picnic table and hammock under the carport. Dogs and children are welcome. These are pictures I've taken over the years.

Thank you for the review.
We hope you will come back next year
We absolutely loved this beach house!! Very close to the beach access and right next door to one of the pools offered in this neighborhood. Everything you need to cook a meal or just relax is available.
The house was great. Plenty of room for us all to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook. Location to pool and beach access was great. Mattress was very comfortable! We will stay here again

Thank you. The porch is one of the main reasons we picked that home. No hot sun in the afternoon or early evening. Hope you were able to enjoy the swing with a cool drink.
We loved this house and the Fort Morgan area. House had all we needed for a great week at the beach. Enjoyed the quick walk to the sand and the pool next door!

Thank you for the review.
We agree. The location is the best.
It is the most convenient to use the pool and beach.
Wonderful stay! We were super pleased with everything about this house. Super impressed with how well stocked the kitchen is and the easy and simple walk to the beach/pool. Will definitely be looking forward to booking again every year!
Three generations enjoyed our time in this roomy house just a short walk from the beach! Pool next door, hammock and porch swings, fully stocked kitchen, and places for everyone to sleep! Don’t hesitate to book this place. Great neighborhood, too!

Thank you for the review. Please come again. Make memories for a lifetime! Our children are 35 ish and still talk about our family trips to the beach. They now understand how much effort it took to make it happen.
We had a great time staying here. The house was perfect size wise and very clean. Beach access was right by the house and super easy to access. Great little area too!

Thank you for the review. We have a lot of fun there.
This was a great spot for our family of 5 to spend the holidays. Very short walk to the beautiful, spacious beach. If you want a quiet spot with a good beach that’s off the beaten track, this is it.
Wanted a beach vacation for two families. We both rented a cottage in Morgan Town neighborhood. It was a perfect location, great neighborhood and would recommend this rental.
The place was perfect for our expanded quarantining bubble. We were able to enjoy the beach, bring our Pomeranians and still stay safe in the cute house.

Thank you for the review. We are really happy that you enjoyed the home. I know the weather was all over the place, warm, cold and everything else. March can be that way on the gulf. Please come again.

Why they chose this property
The Ft. Morgan area is a great, peaceful retreat from the hectic pace of life and work. The location of this home is perfect for all. The boardwalk to the beach is just across the road and the swimming pool next door, make it the best location for families with young children. We found that the younger children got tired of the beach and heat after a few days and would rather go next door to the pool. In the early days, you could sit on the porch and watch the pool. Now, the scrub oaks have gotten taller and the view is not as open. The subdivision has a security company that will come lock the pool up at closing time. If someone climbs the fence and is a bother, just call the security company and they will take care of it. We love this home and hope you will also.
What makes this property unique
The single most enjoyable thing we love about our beach house is the front porch. Family and friends gather there and visit for hours. Things we do not take time to do at home. We seldom watch TV at the beach but we do enjoy music. The large family area of this home makes it nice for others to come visit and gather for meals. Most homes this size have 4 bedrooms, which cuts down on the living area. With hardwood floors in all rooms, this home is easy to keep clean and it adds a unique open feeling for the beach experience.
