Highlights

Welcome to Sunshine! Sunshine is the ideal vacation rental located across the street from one of 4 beach access boardwalks and just a few houses away from one of the 2 neighborhood swimming pools. Sunshine is pet friendly and so are the beaches in Morgantown so the entire family can vacation together!

The Space

This comfortable home has an open floor plan which features a comfortable living area where the Alabama sunlight shines through the double glass doors and large windows. The dining area is roomy, and you'll find a full kitchen well equipped to prepare simple meals should you choose to dine at home.

On the first level, you'll also find a king bedroom and a bunk bedroom with two, twin over full bunk beds plus a full bath.

Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms, all with king beds. Two have balcony access and one has a private bath. There is also a full hall bath on this level.

While it's just steps to the beach, pool or tennis courts, you will enjoy spending time on the decks where you'll enjoy relaxing in Adirondack style chairs, rocking chairs and a table with seating for four. The ground level is equipped with an outdoor shower and a full-sized picnic table.

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.

Stevens Thanksgiving Holiday

The house fit our extended family perfectly. My husband and I used the bedroom downstairs with our grandkids in the bunk room. My 3 children and their spouses slept upstairs. Having 4 king size beds was a big plus. Plenty of room in the family room and kitchen area for all to watch ballgames and a big table for card games. We were able to host Thanksgiving for 4 other family’s staying in the neighborhood with all the outside seating too.

Sunshine

We had a wonderful stay at the Sunshine at Fort Morgan. The house was clean neat and just a short walk to the beach. The only thing we did not like was that there were way to many Knick knacks around the house. Covered every table,corner etc. was a little hard for crawling babies with things on the floors in corners everywhere. The dressers and tables in the bedrooms along with bathroom countertops were covered with Knick knacks too. You didn’t have much room if any to put your own things down. Overall very nice house and would stay again.

Sunshine on our Shoulders

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 just finished a week at this rental and had an outstanding time together. There were 16 of us in all. The house is very conveniently located to both the pools and the beach. We also enjoyed pickleball, tennis, and riding our bikes through the neighborhood. Coastal View Vacations was a pleasure to deal with. I had a number of questions before we left, and they were very responsive in answering them. Could not recommend more highly.

Amazing stay!

We absolutely loved this vacation house. We had to change a few things around and the owner was fabulous with our circumstances. It was the perfect location for our kids, ranging from ages 2-10. It was clean and everything they put online was extremely accurate. We would 100% stay here again! Highly recommend!

Great House

The house was perfect for us. The kids loved the bunk room and the house was roomy enough for everyone to be comfortable. Location is perfect! Cross the street and down the boardwalk to the beach. I hope to rent again one day.

Perfect family getaway!

House was perfect location with easy access to beach and pools. We love this neighborhood as we have rented other houses here for years and this property was just as lovely- almost as good as being right on beach with the boardwalk right across the street. It was also family & pet friendly which was great! We didn’t have great weather but the house was well stocked for cooking and we enjoyed the board games and video games we brought along. Plenty of room for our family of 5!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location clean and very close proximity to beach access. The house had most everything. If you’ve stayed in other houses in this subdivision you’ll be impressed by the amount of space and sleeping accommodations. You will need to make sure you pack salt, pepper and The basics. We had a great week.

By far one of the best places to stay...

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 had a wonderful experience at this property. Great location close to the beach access and pool and very clean. I have never stayed at a VRBO with so many kitchen supplies, there is plenty of everything from silverware to pots and pans. We had my whole family of 16 so that was a great asset to have as we cooked almost every night. Such a great friendly neighborhood. The property manager was very nice and came by to check on us several times. If you are looking for a beautiful and spacious place defiantly check this one out.
