About this property

Morgantown w/ Pools and Tennis!

The Highlights

Sunshine on my Shoulders is a custom 4 bedroom, 4 bath beach home decorated with coastal elegance. The oversized kitchen and living areas were designed to accommodate a large group in comfort and other custom features include granite counters and tile surrounds throughout. Relax in a rocking chair or dine at the table on the back porch enjoying the sounds of the gulf. This home is designated for families. Pro-Tip: One of the two neighborhood pools in on the way to the beach so plan to stop for a dip!

The Space

Guests really appreciate the modern furnishings and touches. Solid surface flooring throughout and soft neutral colors provide the perfect retreat for a restful beach vacation. Three King bedrooms with private baths are furnished with memory foam mattresses. The bunk room provides sleeping for 7, with a trundle available, and a private bath. Triple twin bunks and double full bunks all also have memory foam mattresses.

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

*. For you added safety there are cameras located under the house near the entrance door.

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. If you have small children or just prefer the convenience of parking close to the beach, there is a public lot just to the west of Morgantown.

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 (opening soon) 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.

Be sure and visit nearby Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge with over 7,000 acres of coastal habit. You'll be able to hike through the preserve and observe local flora and fauna. There are 4 trails, varying in size and terrain and you'll definitely want to make time to visit this natural oasis.

Just what we needed for two families with kids

We had two families coming together with 7 kids and this house worked just perfectly for us. The bunk room was an awesome space for them to all be together. The back patio was perfect for all of us to spread out and many crafts, games and activities were accomplished out there. Just what we needed.

Sunshine On Your Shoulders

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything about our stay here was wonderful. We’ve stayed in several houses here in Morgantown and this was by far our favorite. It was so clean and decorated perfect. We loved that each bedroom has its own bathroom! The open floor plan is perfect for a large family like ours. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if the rental included a golf cart. My parents are older and the walk was a little tough on them. We will be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The overall stay at Sunshine on your shoulders was good and I would stay again. The only thing I didn’t like was we could not adjust the air at all. It had a lock code on it and was locked from guest adjusting the air. Also the washer was out but the property manager got a new one in the house in just day and it was a really quick process to swap out. We had a great time overall and the house was very beautiful.

Family Trip

The property was nice. We had a couple of issues, the floor was dirty, our feet turned black when walking barefoot; the bed in one of the bedrooms was broken and we had to remove the mattresses to fix it; there was a ton of sand that we washed off ourselves in the carports and the brother in law appeared a lot and seemed to be watching us, especially on check out day while we were loading up. He sat on a golf cart across the street and watched us load our vehicles. That made us feel uncomfortable. The location was nice, loved the roominess of the house, easy access to pools and beach. The porch outside was wonderful.

Great time for family

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: Great space for the entire family. My wife and I took our three grown kids, their spouses, and our six grandkids, and we had a great time. Plenty of room, and the house was spotless and nicely decorated. I would like to have more water pressure in the master shower. That would be my only complaint. I would stay there again as access to the beach, and pool was easy since I could bring my golf cart. But not a far walk either.

Perfect For a Big Family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay here. You really can't beat the layout for multiple families. A short walk down the street to the beach that is maybe two or three blocks. We actually loaded the back of the truck up and dropped everyone off then the driver would walk back. The pool is only one block away. Enough parking under cover for at least 4 vehicles. A private bathroom for each room. We would definitely go back again.

Family Vacation after Covid

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our trip to Morgantown/Gulf Shores. The bedrooms were very spacious and the location wasn't bad either. The only complaint was the "big" pool was never opened. We understand it was closed for maintenance on Monday but due to the part coming in late, it never opened. The email stated it would be open on Tuesday but it was never unlocked. We even tried several different times of the day and throughout the week. We will be back but hoping to stay closer to the ocean.

Spacious but needs a good deep clean and better A/C!

Sunshine on my Shoulders is an adorable beach house. Very spacious and love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. Upon arriving, the floors were dirty, to the point that my son’s feet were (grossly) dirty after being there an hour (he’s a toddler and took his shoes off as soon as we got there). I notified the property manager when she checked in with us about that and some stains on the bedding, which she was very nice about and offered to have the cleaning lady come back for, but once our group was in and unloaded, we didn’t really want to deal with someone being there to clean. The kitchen is well stocked with all the pots/pans needed to cook. Lots of games and books available on the bookshelf which was nice. The A/C was set to 72 and would not go below 70. As a family that keeps our A/C at home set to 67-68 year round, we were hot most of the week and this information would be nice to know ahead of time (in the listing perhaps?) as we’ve never encountered that before while staying at the beach. The walls and baseboards could really use a deep cleaning, as there are visible stains. Obviously that didn’t effect our stay, but it’s just something I noticed during our time there. Again, loved how spacious the house is. We appreciated that there was plenty of dining seating available between the bar stools, kitchen table and bar table. However, seating in the actual living room is a bit limited if everyone in your group is all in there together. Our group had 9 people and a couple people ended up sitting at the kitchen table while we were all hanging out in the living room. Cute house, good location to the pool and beach. & loved having the outdoor shower downstairs!
