The deck provides awesome views of both Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico and is perfect for sun bathing. When you come back from the beach be sure to rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower with both hot & cold water. Morning sunrises to late night talks can be spent on the covered front porch which offers plenty of seating and three rocking chairs. Other amenities include Satellite TV, TV’s & DVD’s in all bedrooms and living room, an outdoor grill and a very well stocked kitchen.

Of the 3 bedrooms, the master bedroom has a king size bed; bedroom 2 has a queen size bed and bedroom 3 has a queen & twin size bed. The living room has a queen size sleeper sofa. Sleeps 9.

Shorething was a perfect Spring Break Getaway!

Mick was friendly from the moment I booked and continued to respond quickly when I had any questions. The house was perfect for our family & grandparents. The kids loved the heated pool and the very short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower with hot water is what every beach house is missing! I kept the kids shampoo out there and would go ahead and bathe all three when leaving the beach. Fort Morgan is so peaceful-none of the spring break crowd.

great stay

Thank you Mick and Kim for an awesome stay. Everything from start to finish was easy. your house is very comfortable, homey, clean and we could not have found a better location. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch having morning coffee, watching the sun come up, and meeting all the great neighbors walking by with a friendly good morning. The pool was amazing. Very clean, and warm. We would highly recommend staying here. Thank you again for a great vacation.

Wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful stay here! Very clean, and the pool was great! So close to the beach. The owners are friendly and responsive. Not sure if it was the time of year we stayed or if it is always this quiet and uncrowded, but it was amazing! We hope to stay again!

Great place to stay

This rental was perfect for our family! The view from the covered front porch is amazing!! Mick is so friendly and was quick to answer any questions. We went to the beach in the morning and early afternoon and then spent the rest of the afternoon and evening in the private pool. I highly recommend this rental and we plan to stay there again.

Very nice property. Great location, well maintained, furnished and cleaned. Nice gift bag provided water, hugger and sunscreen. As a practical matter, we would have preferred a box of tissues and a 2nd roll of toilet paper. The only real negative was a listing failure. Given the time of year, I selected this property specifically for the heated pool. After arrival, I learned there was an additional $50 per day fee to actually turn the heater on.

Spring Break

Our stay was really good. We enjoyed the pool so much it was an extra charge for heating the pool but it was worth the extra money. I also loved that the kitchen was well stocked with cooking pans, pot, utensils! We would recommend a stay at Shore Thing to our family and friends.

One of the best

This vacation home is everything you would want and more. The owner is prompt and the view is fantastic. The beach is only steps away and one of our favorite spots besides the private pool was the porch swing catching the gulf breeze every night. All I can say is it is perfect!

About the host

Hosted by Mick and Kim Fieldbinder

Host profile image
My wife Kim and I have been married for 17 years and like most men….I’ve truly outkicked my coverage in landing her! She’s in the business world and I have been a coach my entire adult life (hence the “outkicked my coverage” remark). We have been vacationing on the Gulf Coast for over 17 years at different spots up and down the “Redneck Riviera”. There’s truly no place like Fort Morgan….so we decided to set up shop here.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location!!! If you like the laid back version of beach life then the Fort Morgan area is right up your alley. A solid 15-20 minute ride back into Gulf Shores is far enough to get you away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to still make a day of it without having to drive forever. And if you like being able to spread out away from other folks on the beach, then welcome home. Even in the busy times there’s still plenty of room for everybody to spread out. Not a whole lot of places on the coast that can claim that.

What makes this property unique

Our place is a stones throw from the beach. You can walk from our driveway to the beach access in less than a minutes time (NOT hustling either!). As a result of this proximity, the views are absolutely amazing! And oh by the way, not just from the front porch. The back deck is offset from the house so you can still get a knockout view of the ocean from there as well. And speaking of the back deck, it just happens to have a killer pool sitting right in the middle of it! Few things better in life than spending the day at the beach and watching the sunset from the pool. Come see for yourself!
