About this property

Fall Rates Reduced! Great views - Pools & Beach!

Diamondmine is not on a beachfront lot but it is located directly on the sand with no streets to cross.

Highlights

Diamondmine is a 7 bedroom (4 king-sized beds!), 6 bath home that sits directly on the sand! No streets to cross to get to the beach and you'll love the convenience of being able to return to the house if you need to replenish supplies or just take a break from the sun. This custom home is well designed and beautifully decorated and you'll quickly fall in love with your new "home away from home". Guests love that the home is spacious and very well appointed, and they appreciate that the beach is sparsely populated. Pro-Tip: No need to use the neighborhood beach access boardwalks. There is a walking easement that will take you directly to the water!

The Space

The owner really has thought of everything. When you enter from the deck, you'll find a handy ""mudroom"" unit. Perfect for beach towels, hats, bags and sunglasses. Everything will be readily available for the next trek to the beach.

Hard surface flooring makes it easy to keep the sand under control and you'll find loads of seating for mealtime. Counter seater, bar seating and a custom-made dining table. All featuring contemporary silver chairs.

The kitchen will please the chefs in the group with gorgeous quartz countertops, huge refrigerators, 2 microwaves and even 2 dishwashers that will make entertaining a large group seem effortless. Bonus! There is even a separate ice maker!

Feel free to dine al fresco at the picnic table located on the deck.

Diamondmine has 3 Master King Suites with view, 1 King with view, 1 Guest Queen, and two bunk rooms. In addition, there is a hallway TV seating area for kids. There are 9 flat screen TVs mounted collectively on the walls of Diamondmine.

Main Floor: (K) Primary w/ private bath w/ walk in shower - (Q) w/ hall bath
2nd Floor: (K) w/ private bath - (K) w/ private bath - (K) w/ hall bath - 2(F/F) bunks w/ shared bath - 2(F/F) bunks w/ shared bath

The owner has purchased the two oceanfront lots in front of Diamondmine to protect the beautiful views from this outstanding home. Two narrow homes, flanking far left and far right, are currently being constructed. Guests at Diamondmine will continue to enjoy the awesome views. We are excited about this news and so pleased that the spectacular view will be preserved forever. Continue to check back for updated photos.

* Renter must be at least 25 years of age. Guests under 25 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

For your safety and protection, this home is equipped with 2 two exterior cameras underneath the house.

Fort Morgan and Morgantown

Morgantown is a lovely, unique seaside community featuring two swimming pools, a kiddie pool, two lighted tennis/pickleball courts and several beach access boardwalks. When you first arrive, you'll notice pride of ownership in this pastel colored, beautifully landscape neighborhood. Guests really enjoy walking and biking along the quiet streets and many rent golf carts and enjoy sunset drives. Diamondmine is pet friendly and so are the Morgantown beaches so the whole family can join in the fun!

Located a scenic 15 miles from Gulf Shores, you'll find everything you need close at hand. Dollar General and Sassy Bass Market are just a few miles away and have all the basics you might need. There are several restaurants nearby offering a variety of tasty dishes. Tacky Jack's, Sassy Bass (2 locations), Coast and brand-new Jesse's to name a few. Some venues even offer live, local entertainment.

Fort Morgan fishing pier is now open, and anglers will have access to convenient inshore fishing and the abundant species locally available.

Great accommodations for High School soccer team

Out boys high school soccer team and two coaches stayed here during a 4 day tournament in Foley. The location was perfect to give the boys access to the beach while secluded enough for the coaches to relax. The property is amazing and coach already wants to book it for next years tournament.

A great property in Morgantown

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property is pretty new with up to date / luxurious floors and counters. Location can't be beat if you want to be right on the beach. Two great pools in the neighborhood but you'll want to drive or rent a golf cart to get there. Plenty of space for a big family. A few minor maintenance issues that were addressed promptly. Owner is very helpful and responsive.

Family Beach Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year to stay at Diamondmine. It is a wonderful house and location for a good family trip. It’s an easy walk right across the sand to the beach. There are plenty of rooms and bathrooms to accommodate a large group. The property manager and owner responds very quickly to any problem or request. The upstairs water wouldn’t warm up and I texted the property manager. There was a worker and the owner at the house very promptly. They did not hesitate and replaced the hot water heater in no time. Thanks again for all you did to make this another great beach trip.

Great Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely home with great views of ocean. Had a couple issues which were addressed promptly. One issue was with hot water in one of upstairs bathrooms. Maintenance came and told us hot water was on cycle. Still had problems so maybe we didn’t understand how to use. 🤷‍♀️ Would suggest supplying more than two kitchen dish towels. Otherwise very well stocked kitchen. Decorated beautifully. Very comfortable beds. Would have liked to book for same time next year but price went up $3,000 for same amount of time spent at house this year. Seemed like way to big a raise in price so guess we will be looking elsewhere.

Okay but wasn’t out of this world

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the house, but for being a year old it is very used. The kitchen items need some replacement. There was a broken stair banister that was pretty dangerous for our toddlers. The view was great but the walk wasn’t easy across the dunes, especially with kids. It is across the street from the beach not on the beach. There are two lots in front of it and when those are purchased this property will loose its appeal. I simply felt like the price was to high for this property. We’ve stayed at similar properties directly on the beach in better condition at off season prices. Also washer and dryer wasn’t great and really needed more than one set for a house this size.

Lovely home with great views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our original house canceled on us three weeks before our vacation due to unforeseen circumstances, luckily this house was available to fit our large group! Of course, I looked at pictures, but the house was even better in person than it was online. It was very clean, the kitchen was so well stocked, probably the most well equipped kitchen we have had. We have been coming to this area for over 10 years with a large group of friends and this year was definitely one of the best. We had great communication with the property manager, she addressed our questions immediately as well. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean, and the beach was easily accessible. Wonderful house and we highly recommend it!

Wonderful Family Thanksgiving at the Beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We planned our big family Thanksgiving vacay early this year for some time in the mountains, not the beach. Hurricane Helene tore through NC so our plans changed. We didn't see this home and booked place #2 in Destin. Three days before check-in, the home developed a major leak. We scrambled one more time and thankfully, this home was available and ... absolutely perfect. We had a lot of specific needs: 6 bedrooms with at least three primary bedrooms and one on the main level; pet friendly and room enough for 11 or 12. This house more than met our needs.Although we didn't plan for a beach trip originally, this getaway to Fort Morgan was exactly what our big extended family needed and we're so grateful this wonderful home was available when we needed it. Everything from the layout, room configuration, comfy king beds, two large refrigerators, dishwashers, and microwaves, huge deck overlooking the ocean, easy-to-sweep floors (to keep sand from driving you crazy) ... everything ... was absolutely perfect for our big brood.The property managers were wonderful, too. From us needing to add an extra pet at the literal last minute to texting with me as we checked in and on our first full day to give us the lay of the land with Blue Angels flights, they were so kind, professional, helpful and made our stay even better.And yes, we had our own personal airshow as the Blue Angels practiced right in front of our home almost every day. We loved it!Oh, the kitchen — in addition to the double fridges, dishwashers and microwaves, there are pots and pans, utensils, serving pieces, small appliances, etc. for anything you need to do in the kitchen. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner and a gazillion other meals in that kitchen and had all the tools we needed.The weather was gorgeous during our week there so we spent days on the beach and nights watching movies, putting together puzzles and more. It was a wonderful vacation and

Amazing beach house!

This house and the property manager were both amazing! Check-in was simple. The house was very clean. I had no complaints and I'm pretty picky about cleanliness! We loved the open layout of the downstairs and the big table. Made it easy to all hang out together to watch tv or play games. We had all of the kitchen utensils and pans that we needed. We also loved how close the house is to the beach. It's a very short, easy walk. The deck was great for the rainy days. We could still sit outside and watch and listen to the waves. The beds were comfortable - we all slept well. The property manager answered any questions we had within minutes. We had icemaker problems and she had a repairman there very quickly, and followed up with us to make sure we had what we needed. We had a great stay and would not hesitate to rent this house again!
