About this property

Highlights

Sandpiper is a beautiful, second tier home in the desirable Morgantown beach community. The beach access boardwalk is basically at the end of the driveway of this 1 story 5 bedroom, 4 bath home. So, you can go from looking at the view to being in the picture in no time at all. The spacious deck, with ample seating, provides the perfect spot for sunset watching and star gazing. Pro Tip: No need to pack for the day when you head to the beach. When you are this close, it's super easy to return for additional supplies.

The Space

Sandpiper features an open floor plan with a large living, dining and kitchen area. The kitchen has granite counter tops and top of the line appliances. The 5 bedrooms orbit the living area in this one-story home. The King primary has a private bath with separate shower and a double sink. There is also balcony access from this room. Two of the other bedrooms have Queen beds and private baths. The 4th and 5th bedrooms share a bath. One has a Queen bed and the other, two Twin beds. In all, Sandpiper will comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests.

For added safety and security, there is a Ring video doorbell at this property.

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.

First level: King bedroom w/private bath & balcony access; Queen room w/private bath; Queen room w/private bath; Queen room with shared bath; 2 Twins with shared bath.

First Family Beach Vacation is One to Remember

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 absolutely enjoyed our stay at Sandpiper! Waking up and being able to sit on the front porch and see/hear the ocean. The best! There were 10 of us but I never felt like we were all on top of each other. The bedrooms are spread out well and the kitchen was very spacious. The under the counter ice machine was the best. We didn’t have to worry about getting ice for coolers each day bc it was right there for us. Having the boardwalk right outside our front door was so great for the small children. Overall, our trip was great. The house could have been a bit cleaner when we got there but nothing that ruined our trip or would hinder us coming back to this exact house. We did eat out a few times and the drive into gulf shores was long at times but that’s no fault of the house. We knew we would have a bit of a drive with traffic. We loved our week at Sandpiper and hope to be back to make more memories.

Great Family Vacation Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Sandpiper is in a great location only steps from the beach. Overall the home is a great stay. Perfect size and nice layout. Very convenient and easy access to the beach. The board walk is literally in the front yard. There is room for parking four vehicles provided one is small enough to fit underneath. During our stay one of the tennis courts was usable. The net was broken on the second court. Younger kids enjoyed access to both community pools. The only issues we had were the ice makers. The frig icemaker would thaw and then refreeze causing the ice auger to lock up. We worked around that issue and it was a minor issue. The external ice maker needed cleaning and the filter had expired. No big deal if you are only using the ice in your coolers. The Morgantown community is really nice and quiet. The Sassy Bass Market just down the road was was convenient and although small had a supply of most common items. We would definitely stay in the Sandpiper again.

Perfect 50th Birthday Celebration

We had a wonderful time staying at Sandpiper! The layout of the house was perfect for our group of 9. The walk to the beach is quick and the ice maker was a fun addition! We will definitely be staying here again!

Nice and Easy

Property was nice and pretty clean. Pictures on listing do the add justice. Seemed to represent what you were getting relatively well. The walk to the beach was less then what I thought it would be looking at satellite images. Coastal view (management company) needs some work on their app. They send you a bunch of emails telling you to get their app but there is no information on that app and it’s basically useless. Had to use the Vrbo app to get in touch with manger to get the door code which was painless but a little slow because my phone had little reception.
