About this property

Beach “N” Bay Getaway Sleeps 9. Enjoy Beach Time, Fishing, Kayaking. Steps Away

Beach “N” Bay Getaway is directly situated across from Mobile Bay (St. Andrew's Bay) and has a magnificent view from the north side of the house, including both the main and upper decks. The view of the Gulf of Mexico sparkles so brilliantly from the back (south) deck, and with the brilliant white sand, your sunshades will always be in order. We call it Beach “N” Bay Getaway because it really is the best of both worlds. It’s centered right between Mobile Bay and the Beach on the Gulf side. If you have family or people in your group that love the beach as well as fishing and kayaking it’s really the perfect spot. Both are within about 500 ft. from our newly painted decks both with great views of both bodies of water. Picture yourself sitting on the back deck soaking up the sun, while hearing the sound of the pounding surf, drinking in the smell of the warm salt air, and hearing the call of the laughing sea gulls circling above, with a lone Pelican slowly lumbering past.... You don't want to sit in the sun? Well, there is a lovely concreted area underneath the house with a picnic table, a large swing, and room to relax out of the sun but still hearing the surf, seeing the beach, smelling the salt air and feeling the constant Gulf southerly breeze blowing against your face.
Our two (2) story, 1500 sq. ft., three (3) bedroom, two and a half (2.5) baths, full size washer/dryer, with a fully equipped kitchen---is all you need for your beach get away. Conveniently situated just 125 yards from the actual beach (beach side, with deeded beach access) and the stunning Mobile Bay on the other---with small boat access at the natural boat launch...and a birding site to boot! Wow! Beach “N” Bay not only offers wonderful views, but also with updated accommodations at an affordable price! What else do you need? Totally updated and remodeled in 2021 inside and out it’s basically a brand new house with granite counter tops, luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated bathroom fixtures, new mattresses, and a well equipped kitchen; it is not only comfortable, but is just plain cute with a pleasing beach and water themed decor. It is all you need for your party of 9 guests or less to have a great time at the beach, or just a two minute walk directly behind you to fish or throw a couple of Kayak's in the water for the day. It's the best of both worlds for your relaxing getaway. Now featuring keyless entry to make your stay even more convenient.

Perfect location

We had a great stay! House was clean, comfortable, and close to the beach. We went to Fort Morgan one day and the kids had a great time exploring. Not too far from Gulf Shores to enjoy the amenities, but far enough to avoid the crowds. Absolutely perfect, we can’t wait to go back.

My Wonderful Stay at Beach and Bay

Unobstructed Bay views and short walk to Beach

The house is close to the beach or the bay. Beautiful unobstructed view of the Bay. Perfect size for our family and close to the two restaurants we frequent while at Fort Morgan and close to the ferry to go to Dalphin Island. Sleeping accommodations are very comfortable too. Would absolutely stay there again.

Ft. Morgan stay

The property was in good shape and met all of our needs. We really like the location as we had stayed there previously. The property changed hands about 2 months prior to our arrival, but the transition was very easy and our rates were honored. The new property owner was very responsive and followed through on everything immediately, which we really appreciated. We would stay here again.

Enjoyable Stay

The rental was close to Ft. Morgan. We had water views from the front and back decks and plenty of seating. It was a 1 minute walk to the beach and a fishing spot was directly across the road. The home was clean and nicely decorated. There is a security light that does shine in at night through the front door onto anyone sleeping on the sofa bed. Also, there is no hot tub as shown on the VRBO site. Overall we had an enjoyable time and would definitely rent this property again.

This is a wonderful beach house situated in a relaxing area along the Alabama shore. The home has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. All three decks have fabulous views as do all the rooms. The owner has not missed anything in equipping the house for a renter. The house feels like you are home, with a great view! It is away from the hub bub but only 2-3 miles from two restaurants. You couldn't ask for more!! We will be back many times!

Beach n Bay amazing stay!

My brother , mother and I drove down from Minnesota and rang in the new year seaside!.. it was a great adventure with great weather . We enjoyed how the home is surrounded by nature in all directions. On the bay side we saw dolphins swimming, and tiny little crabs and even did little fishing . On the gulp side, we also did a little fishing and many treasures were collected from the sea. We saw jellyfish and birds and lots and lots of shells. It is quiet and peaceful and the house is absolutely perfect.. very cute and accommodating. Nice towels and even plenty of spices which is nice cause sometimes rentals can be quite sparse. My only note is that the knives were a little dull but everything else was literally perfect. We can not wait to come and stay again . Next time maybe peak fishing season so I can catch a big one!

Vacation Week

Great location. View of Mobile Bay out the front door and the Gulf of Mexico off the back deck. We had a fantastic week. 3 very small issues, almost petty. 1. The WiFi was not good. 7-8 Mbps downstairs and didn't work upstairs at all. Even after turning the router off and on. 2. Had to buy a black shower curtain to block the sun coming into the master and from the back door and waking us up at 5 AM. 3. The bathroom light in the master is blinding, especially when you get up in the middle of the night to us it. Overall a fantastic week and looking forward to using the house next year!

Great Family Vacation Spot

What a wonderful place to stay! The location was great! Just a short walk across the road to the beach. The neighborhood / road parallel to the beach is fantastic for morning walks. We appreciated the free WiFi and amenities included (the coffee maker is a brew, not pod FYI). The beds slept great and accommodated our family. We will definitely be returning!

A Perfect Getaway

We really enjoyed our entire experience at Beachnbay! The property was exactly as we expected it would be from the pictures that were posted, and the location was perfect for us: just remote enough, with easy access to both gulf and bay beaches, a convenience store, and other amenities (like kayak rentals or fishing charters). Nice views from both sides of the cottage, and despite some cooler than expected temperatures...the location of the property blocked much of the wind, so sitting on the gulfside deck in the afternoon was great! We'll definitely be back again soon...

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Darnell, Jim Darnell, Chris Darnell

Host profile image
Owned by myself and my Mom and Brother, we will do our best to make sure your family vacation is the best. We have stayed on Fort Morgan for our family vacations for the last few years and like it so much we decided to purchase a vacation / rental home so we can enjoy the area more than once a year and also share it with our renters. This location has been a successful rental for many years already so we plan to continue that.

Why they chose this property

The location of this home is hard to beat. It offers the beach only a two minuet walk from the back door and the bay is directly on the other side for a quick fishing trip or kayaking excursion. There are great views of both from the house which make this one quite unique.

What makes this property unique

Take your pick of activities for the day including the beach or fishing or kayaking all within walking distance. For something different, head to gulf shores (only a short drive) for tourist shops, grocery shopping, more restaurants, go carts, ect. Plenty to do for the whole family.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
