We had our 3 adult children and their families, and our 12 yr old son with us on our stay. Everything was amazing the golf cart was a nice bonus and the grandbabies loved going for rides on it. The house was perfect, we enjoyed sitting on the back deck and the kids loved the screened in play area especially the swing that was a hit with my 18 month old grandson. The extra toys and beach gear were very much appreciated and cut down on our packing. The tubs were great for soaking and bathing the babies. The only request I would have is the fridge is a little small for a house that holds 11 people we needed to shop a few different times as we didn't have room to shop for a week's stay and feed 11 people. Overall this was an AMAZING family Vacation and we would definitely stay here again!!! Thank you for a great stay!

Perfect location!

Location was perfect, 5-10 minute walk to the beach, but could take the golf cart right to the beach as well. Beach wasn’t too crowded and dog friendly. House was clean and cozy, perfect set up for our group of 8. Host was very responsive and quick to rectify any issues. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Perfect quiet location

We could not have been happier with our stay at Dreams Come True. The property was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked, beds were comfortable. The property is a short walk or golf cart ride to the beach and community pool. Property manager was great at checking in, and readily available.

Close but Quiet

Great location and perfect for our family. The beach is around five minutes away but the golf cart made it easy for transporting to and from the beach! We drove from different areas so having parking for five vehicles was a must! The house was wonderful and the host was excellent, making sure we had what we needed. I highly recommend staying there if in the area!

Perfect!

Our family of 6 loved this house! Very clean, awesome master bath, comfortable commons area for visiting and relaxing. Loved that the table was big enough for everyone to eat together. Having access to the golf cart to go to the beach was awesome! The rooms are spread out and allows everyone their privacy. I would highly recommend this house for a great vacation!!

Awesome property with lots of amenities!

Loved how close this property was to the pool! The golf cart was super helpful getting to the beach. We cooked almost every night and kitchen was setup well for that. WiFi and fire sticks made watching TV in all rooms a breeze. Kids loved playing the board games that were there as well. The screened in porch was great for morning breakfast! Would highly recommend for families with several kids or a couple of families w/ 2-3 kids.

Perfect house and host!

Let me start off by saying Dawn was amazing. She accommodated our last minute request when our reservation with another host fell through. With two families and two dogs stuck, she let us go right over. The house was perfect - close enough to the beach that we could walk up each day. It was extremely clean and fit our needs. Only part we were bummed about was the golf cart was not working. Dawn was always available and answered my inquiries immediately. Would definitely stay at this Coastal Cottage again!! Thanks Dawn for saving our family vacation!

Wonderful Home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay... even my 3 year old said she wanted to stay at that house lol. House was very clean. Kitchen was truly fully stocked. Dawn had thought of everything... down to make up towels and all the right small size toiletries you may have forgotten. Plenty of extra sheets and bedding along with a fold out mattress which was perfect for the toddler. Wifi... I truly hoped we are blessed to be able to return another year. You won't be disappointed!!

Family Spring Break!

It was perfect for us. The property was very clean and spacious. The family just enjoying time spent together in a laid-back atmosphere. Quite and away from the busy tourist areas but close enough to run to the store or restaurants. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. We had an issue with the hot water and Dawn made sure it was fixed as soon as soon as possible. She was super responsive and made sure we had a great experience. We would highly recommend this home. Perfect for large family gatherings! We'd love to come back again!

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

We love the Ft. Morgan area for its natural beauty, gorgeous beaches, and proximity to Gulf Shores. Our family has been vacationing in the area for 17 years and we have so many wonderful memories. We recently purchased Dreams Come True so that we always have a place for our family to enjoy. We can hear the waves from the front porch and walk to the beaches which are much less crowded than Gulf Shores.

What makes this property unique

Morgantown is so cute with all the homes painted 'beachy fun' colors and all are elevated on piers. We have 2 beautiful pools in the community with rest/changing rooms and plenty of lounge chairs. We also love to play pickleball and the courts are about 3 houses away. During the fall, the weather can still be warm enough to enjoy the beaches and ocean; and the dining in Gulf Shores is less crowded. In December, the Blue Angels fly practice drills from Pensacola past Morgantown-it is incredible to sit on the beach and watch them.
