About this property
3 BR / 2 BA Beautiful Home w/ Loft or Office Space & Clear View of Beach
Welcome to Invested Time - a beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with a loft / office space located conveniently across the road from a vacant property where not even a sand dune can obstruct your view of Alabama's beautiful sandy beaches.
Upon entering our beach house, guests will walk into an open floor plan of a large living room and kitchen, with the kitchen accommodating up to 10 guests at one time. Our house also offers a master bedroom suite and connecting bathroom (double vanity sink, walk in shower w/ 2 shower heads on opposite sides, and spa tub), 2 queen bed rooms that share a 2nd bathroom in between, and a spiral staircase to an open loft space with a queen -sized bed and reading nook. For anyone having to work during their vacation stay, this space also includes a desk and chair positioned across the front half moon window so guests have a direct view of the beach. Each bedroom includes a smart TV and plenty of space to store your belongings. We do have a pack-n-play in one of the spare bedroom closets for anyone that may need it. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for your enjoyment. The parking space under the house on ground level is large enough to accommodate vehicles, boats, jet-skis, etc. The boat launch to Mobile Bay is three miles from our house's location. Also included on our ground level is a smaller charcoal grill, a wagon full of beach and sand toys for children of all ages, and a wooden table that can seat up to 6 people. Located in the rear, is an outdoor shower with more than enough privacy. The yard is enclosed with a beach fence.
My husband and I hope that you love staying and vacationing here as much as we do. We are dedicated and committed to ensure that your visit with us is the best experience possible. To each of our guests, we hope for any future vacations you will not hesitate to book your next adventure here at our beach house. Please keep in mind that we prefer a Saturday to Saturday reservation during main season, however, we will accommodate if it necessary.

We had a wonderful stay! We brought our boat and had plenty of room to park it in the drive way. The host was very quick with responding to any questions or concerns we had.
We loved our stay at this beach house! The host was incredibly friendly, communicated wonderfully, and was available anytime we needed her — she truly went above and beyond. The home is in a quiet, private area away from the hustle and bustle of Gulf Shores, yet still an easy drive to all the local attractions. It was perfect for my adult children and two small grandchildren, and the beach toys and accessories were such a thoughtful touch. The house itself was very clean, cozy, and truly family‑friendly.
Check in is always perfect and easy ,the house was very clean and updated. I've stayed here the last few years ,excellent view and great location. The owner is very gracious and helpful, i look forward to coming back again
Wonderful Communication with owner. Super nice! The place was perfect with views just like you see in the pictures. Took the ferry from Daphin Island to Fort Morgan - fun experience and peaceful beach and home.
This beautiful home was in a great location. We could see and hear the ocean from the deck. Very comfortable and enjoyable property. We would definitely stay here again!
Great view of the gulf, steps away from the beach perfect location. Looking forward to my next stay at InVested Time, Host was very gracious and made check in a breeze.
Wonderful, the home was wonderful. Everything was clean and new, but it also felt very homey. Everyone was super comfortable perfect location from the beach.
We enjoyed this beach house so much last year that we booked again! It was just as wonderful the second time around. The house was stocked with everything we needed for the week and you can’t beat the short walking distance to the beach. Will be booking again for next year!!!!
This was the perfect stay for our family of 4. We had more room than we needed (didn't even use the 4th bedroom) and the proximity to the beach was the BEST especially with littles. Also, the cleanliness was 10/10. Best part, the value of this property is unmatched!
This is our 3rd year staying at this property. It is comfortable, very clean, plenty of room to spread out and the view is amazing. A few steps to the beach. Wanda is a wonderful host. We will be back again next year!
This was the best stay, one could ask for! Extremely clean, perfect location, great size house. Couldn't ask for anything more! We'll be back! Thanks Wanda!
Super nice home. Pretty much beach front (vannt lot in front of it). Owner easily reached and easy to work with. Us and adult children and 5 yr old grandson and fur babies. Enjoyed our stay!
We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation. The house is clean, spacious and just steps to the beach. It’s my husband & I and our adult children & significant others who come and go. Parking is spacious for multiple cars. This is our 2nd year to stay at Wanda’s beautiful home & we booked again for next year! Highly recommend!
This is the second time we have stayed here. We’ve been going to Fort Morgan for years and this has been our favorite house. Wanda is easy to communicate with and so helpful. The house is beautiful, clean, and almost beach front. We will be back again!

This home was exactly how it was advertised, plus some! We got scenery from the bay, AND the gulf! The owner is very responsive, and kind. I couldn’t help but fall in love with that master bathroom, and that nice shower downstairs outside! Too many positives to write!
I would definitely recommend this home for a vacation spot for family, and friends!
My family stayed at this property for a week instead of the typical condo over in Gulf Shores. This was well worth the price we paid and the pictures do not provide the property with it’s worth. Perfect house for a family, extended family, and/or group of friends. You literally are steps from the beach and you can watch the dolphins as they swim by. The house is about 25 minutes from all the Gulf Shores attractions, so that may be something to consider when booking; however, if your desire is to spend time on a less populated beach, then this is where you’ll find it. It is very easy to spend days out here while on vacation and not head in to town. This property is well worth the experience and price.
