About this property

Charming Cottage With Beautiful Gulf Views - Perfect for Family Getaway!

Charming 4 bedroom, 2 bath raised cottage just steps from the Gulf of Mexico. Witness amazing sunsets and gulf views from the deck, with covered and uncovered areas. Fort Morgan has sugar white beaches and blue-green water. Enjoy the privacy of the beach, take walks or hunt for seashells, or enjoy the many activities in the nearby Gulf Shores and Orange Beach area. Watch the dolphins swim by, and soak in the sun and unspoiled beauty of this area. No condos nearby, small crowds. No smoking and no pets.

This cottage is perfect for a family looking for a beach vacation getaway. The lot is large, and there is plenty of room to spread out outside. There is a large partially covered deck that provides the perfect spot for morning coffee, eating meals outside, or just sitting and enjoying the breeze off the Gulf and listening to the sound of the waves.

Cottage has four bedrooms and two baths and an enclosed hot/cold water outdoor shower. Queen sized sleeper sofa and full sized futon, together with bedrooms, provide sleeping space for 12. Kitchen is fully stocked with coffee maker, toaster, blender, food processor, griddle, and plenty of dishes and serving pieces.

Perfect Stay
We stayed for 6 weeks and our stay could not have been any better. The owners were great. Very responsive with any questions we had. The location, just across the street from the Gulf, was outstanding. We will definately stay again when visiting the Gulf Shores.

A perfect family vacation!
We had a wonderful stay at Toot, the most perfect beach house for our family. We had plenty of room for our family of six (ages 18 & up)! The house was well-stocked with all of the kitchen supplies we needed. We also enjoyed the supply of beach chairs, floaties, umbrellas, etc. The owners were very responsive and helpful throughout our entire trip. Everything about our stay was just perfect and we hope to be back again soon. Thank you!

Great family vacation spot
Our family enjoyed staying here for our vacation. It was clean and had everything we needed, down to a garlic press. We loved the big island in the kitchen, made cooking so easy. Our favorite thing was the front deck. Loved having it covered with a picnic table for eating and the other end is open for enjoying dance parties and seeing the gulf waves. I highly recommend this lovely beach house for your family.

Great beach cottage for family getaway
We enjoyed the 2nd row cottage with easy access to the beach. The wraparound porch is wonderful and spent a lot of time out there admiring the gulf views. There is a Huge kitchen island for everyone to gather around for meals. The AC worked perfectly even in 100 degree heat. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beach oasis
This was the perfect escape! We loved that the house was literally steps away from the beach. House was so cute, great living space, beds were nice and comfortable! Close to major activities but far enough away to enjoy some serenity.

Absolutely perfect!
This place was adorable. Enough space for all 6 of us. The big kitchen island or the deck is where we ate, played games and hung out, if we weren't at the beach or site seeing. 2 min walk to the beach. We loved sitting on the deck just listening to the ocean. Great place, quiet, beaches not crowded....loved it all!!

About the host

Hosted by Linda Tucker/Bill Tucker

Host profile image
Our family has owned this quaint beach cottage on the beach at Fort Morgan for almost 40 years. It is our home away from home, and we are always pleased to be able to share it with our guests so they can experience the relaxing and beautiful beaches of Fort Morgan. We are "locals" who live about an hour away, and take pride in personally maintaining and overseeing our beach cottage for our guests.

Why they chose this property

Our family beach cottage is not fancy, but it is clean and comfortable. Our family has made lots of great memories here over the years, and we hope that yours will, too!
