Soak up the sun on the large second-floor deck, or unwind under the covered deck on the first floor. Fire up the grill and enjoy dinner amid fantastic sunsets over the bay.



Just 2 minutes down the road is Fort Morgan Marina where you can jump on a charter or grab a Bushwacker at Tackey Jack's. You can crab or fish in the Bay or rent a kayak to explore Mobile Bay.

Perched on the second floor, this elevated cottage offers an inviting open floor plan with coastal decor, tile floors, and beautiful bay views throughout.

We had a very difficult time getting in to the house. We had the TEN digit code but didn’t know you had to push a button on the lock to make it work. Only had one key. The couch was in terrible shape—once you sat down you couldn’t get up. Two electric boxes in the bedrooms were kinda scary. House was spacious and decorated nicely. Deck was great! TVs and kitchen dishes were plentiful.

House it self was clean

We do a anniversary getaway with friends. This is year 4! We grill and sit outside and watch the sunset and enjoy being together. We learned the grill was not usable! The boards to get to the Private Beach access were rotten with nails coming out of the as well as bushes growing up between the boards in a few places. We sent pictures and let them know we planned to grill! Nothing was done. We won't rent this place again. We will try to be more careful about the places we stay.

Fun rental for a family of 4

We enjoyed our stay in Fort Morgan. The house is great for parents plus 2 teens and we loved bringing our dog also. Furnishings are fine (not deluxe) though the couch was kinda permeated with sand, which didn’t come from our dog because we only allowed her to sit on ottoman that I covered with my own sheet. There’s more neighboring rentals than you see in the listing photos, I think they haven’t been updated since several properties were built. The beach is slightly in view but you are looking past the other houses to see the bay. But those are minor details and the price was very reasonable. I definitely overall recommend the property! We loved that it’s less than a mile walk to get to the beach on the Gulf side of Fort Morgan. We had fun exploring tiny Fort Morgan and still drove back to Gulf Shores at some point each day. We did a sunset dolphin cruise from a place called Surfs Up and they did the 2-boat wale and we saw so many dolphins! Great family activity and our teenagers loved it.

Take a relaxing trip to Fort Morgan.

Our time at Blue Marlin in Fort Morgan was so relaxing. Cozy residence which we needed as one day the wind was so high with rain. Fishing was great and neighbors were fine.

We were pleasantly surprised of this rental property and of the surroundings. The home was very clean and made us feel relaxed right when we open the door to the first night of sleep there to departure.

Great Stay

Our stay was great! Nice and peaceful. The "Beach" at the bay was very nice. A few suggestions. The steps were hard for my mom to get up and down. A handicap ramp would be nice for older people. I kind of like them myself. Pictures of the outside need to be updated. The property didn't show the new houses on each of the house. Overall it was a great experience!!!
