Sandy Bottoms is a warm, comfortable, cozy beach front home with character plus! View of dunes, sugar white sand, sunrise, sunset, and the blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico! You will feel right at home the minute you walk in the door!
Sandy Bottoms is located on the Fort Morgan Peninsula, about 15.5 miles from the intersection of Fort Morgan Road (Highway 180 West) and Highway 59 in Gulf Shores. You can be there in about 20 minutes!
If it is peaceful relaxation and uncrowded spaces that you desire, the Fort Morgan Peninsula is the place to be! Fort Morgan is surrounded by water, with the Mobile Bay on one side and the Gulf of Mexico on the other - the most beautiful natural beaches in the area. Steeped in history, it is a place where nature abounds. The coastal dunes between the house and the Gulf are habitat for the endangered Alabama beach mouse and nesting sea turtles! You won't see high rise, high density condo buildings in our area; rather, you will feel like you have come to a place that is lost in time. It attracts like a magnet! Once you have visited, you will want to come back again and again!
Sandy Bottoms is light and bright with an open floor plan in the main living area, which includes the living room, dining area and kitchen. It is a great space for family and friends to gather! The main living area has a view of the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and access to the spacious deck.
The living room has plenty of seating with a large sectional sofa with chaise, as well as an additional comfy chair with ottoman and a desk and chair with charging station.
Enjoy watching TV and take advantage of the DirecTV full lineup and smart TV with access to Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc.
For your dining pleasure there is a large table with six chairs, plus two bar stools. The kitchen always gets rave reviews from our guests! There are plenty of excellent restaurants in the area, but if you prefer to stay in and cook your own meals, you won't find anything lacking in the kitchen at Sandy Bottoms. Just read the reviews!
The master bedroom suite is separated from the other two bedrooms, and has a private bathroom, comfortable queen bed, large dresser, two nightstands, comfy chair with table lamp, walk-in closet and private bathroom, and TV with DirecTV full lineup. The lamps have a USB port for charging your devices. The master bedroom also has a view of the Gulf of Mexico and access to the deck.
The additional two bedrooms have two twin beds in one room and a queen bed in the other. Both the twin and the queen bedrooms have closets and chests for plenty of storage. The queen bedroom also has a desk and chair with charging station. The second full bath is located on the wing with bedrooms two and three.
Step out of the living area or master bedroom onto a large deck with a beautiful view of sugar white sand dunes and the gorgeous blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico! The deck also provides an additional sitting area and dining area, with a table and six chairs, two loungers and a glider. This is a great spot to view the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, watch the dolphins frolic, or catch some rays. You might even be lucky enough to get a show from the Blue Angels flight demonstration squadron as they practice!
Want to get out of the sun for a bit? Enjoy the additional covered living and dining area underneath the house! You will love the outdoor enclosed shower which has hot and cold water, vanity with sink, lighting and electrical outlet. You must experience a hot shower where you can feel the ocean breeze and hear the crashing waves! There is also a sandy sitting area on the beach side of the house with loungers and Adirondack chairs. A great place to watch the kids play in the sand!
Step from the Gulf view deck to a boardwalk that leads to a covered gazebo with built-in seating. From the gazebo walk about 75 feet on the sandy beach access lot to the dunes, and over the dunes to the beach!
The beach at Sandy Bottoms is uncrowded and unspoiled and one of the widest sections of beach on the Fort Morgan peninsula. The beach is not groomed, which means you can happily hunt for driftwood, seashells, and other treasures. You might spot dolphins swimming and frolicking in the surf, pelicans flying in formation, or blue herons or seagulls right on the beach. Relax, unwind, soak up the sun, frolic in the waves, surf fish, and watch nature. Enjoy gorgeous sunrises and sunsets during the day and star gaze at night to the dark sky!
For added safety and security for our guests, Sandy Bottoms has security cameras monitoring the entry and exit points. The cameras only show the entry, the driveway in front and the dunes in back. The cameras do not show any other exterior area where you may congregate while at the house. There are no cameras or recording devices inside the house. Your privacy and enjoyment are important to us!
Accommodation, Features
Additional Property Information
We fell in love with the location! So unique! It is so peaceful, quiet and uncrowded! We never thought we could be so close to the beach. The beach and Gulf of Mexico are just steps away! Although the beach is public, our beachfront is only shared by 4 houses. You will not have any problem staking out an uncrowded space of your own. The view from the deck, living room and master bedroom is gorgeous - sand, dunes and blue-green water! So relaxing and peaceful! We love sitting on the deck with a view of the water, just watching for sea gulls and dolphins, or maybe even the Blue Angels practicing right off the beach!
We strive to provide extra amenities not usually found in rental homes. Many of our guests have said our beach house is even better equipped than their own homes! We are attentive owners, and make frequent visits to our home to make sure it is well maintained, clean, updated and fresh.

About Vickie Boozer
We are beach people! We have visited many wonderful beaches in our 38 years of knowing each other. But none of them attracted us or felt more like the best home for us than Fort Morgan. We are casual and relaxed, and are more attracted to a laid back feel. That is why we chose Fort Morgan. We love the fact that you can see the beach from the road, and there are no high rise, high density condo buildings near Sandy Bottoms Beach House. Our area contains mostly modest, privately owned beach homes without the glitz and glamour of other beach resort areas. We enjoy the quiet and peaceful relaxation we feel when we are at the house. We absolutely love hearing the surf from the Gulf and the views are amazing! You can even see dolphins and sea birds right from our beach-front deck! We couldn't be happier owning a little slice of paradise! We love sharing our guest photos on our Sandy Bottoms Beach House Facebook page!

Wonderful!
This was a much needed reunion and vacation for me and my 2 adult girls. What a wonderful spot! And the host was great, working with us to get our full week in despite tropical storm
issues. The home is just perfect, updated and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was very well stocked. We were pleased to find internet and lots of TV options, including movie channels,
Netflix, Amazon, etc. And the location was just perfect for us...quiet area but close enough to town when we wanted. We frequented the Sassy Bass restaurant and convenience store a number of times both by car and by beach walk. An overall great time...we hated to leave and hope to return again!

Perfect Beach Home Away From Home
We had a wonderful week at Sandy Bottoms! The close access to the beach was perfect for us. The short walk made it easy for us to go to the beach multiple times a day with a 1 and 3 year old! The outdoor area around the house was perfect for relaxing, grilling, and hanging out. The house is fully equipped and well thought out. We prefer to cook and dine in for most meals. The kitchen has anything and everything a person could need. I especially appreciated the extra blankets kept in each of the bedroom closets, as well as the sufficient amount of hangers. We really enjoyed the private beach and lesser crowd that Fort Morgan had to offer. The highlight of our trip was getting to watch a sea turtle nest hatch. Vickie made sure we knew what apps and text alerts to set up so we could keep up with the weather and currents. She also provided us with information to the local markets, stores, and restaurants. Sandy Bottoms is a beautiful home, that has anything and everything you could need! It’s the perfect location close to the beach front!

Heaven on the Coast!
I could have lived on the back deck. The house is well-situated with a great view. The kitchen is perfectly appointed. All spotlessly clean upon our arrival. Great communication. The ocean and sky had many moods. Getting sand off wasn't a problem with the convenient outdoor shower. A gem. Will dream about it in the cold of Winter. Thank you!

Such a Special House!
We had a wonderful visit to Vickie's beach house. The house itself is perfectly renovated with comfortable furnishings. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything new could need. The beach itself is stunning and very quiet. We couldn't have had a better week and are hopeful to visit many times in the future. Don't hesitate to book this wonderful house!

Paradise Awaits!
Just spent the most relaxing and fun week at sandy bottoms beach house! The house is immaculately clean, beautifully furnished, and extremely well appointed. My husband and I traveled with our 2 year old, and this area is very peaceful and family friendly. You can still experience all gulf shores has to offer without staying in the overcrowded strip. If you want a day away from the beach, the old fort was 10 minutes down the road and a must see! We cannot wait to come back again— I feel like I’ve found my happy place. Vickie was a great host, made the rental process painless from start to finish, and checked on us multiple times to make sure we were comfortable and had all we needed. Thank you Vickie!

Best beach trip ever!!
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at Sandy Bottoms beach house. Every time we think this is the best beach trip ever.....then we go again. This trip was different than the other 2 in that it was a (grownups only) friends trip. The house is perfectly suited - each couple had their own room and plenty of common space as well. The beach is very private - don’t have to fight for your own space - ever. In the evenings we enjoyed cooking down below & hanging out where we could play corn hole & relax & visit. This might have been the best trip ever - but we will definitely be going back just to make sure!! Vickie is always very helpful and is full of information about the area. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise!!

Perfect Getaway!
Sandy Bottoms was the perfect vacation spot for our trip with family and friends. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipt. The location was absolutely perfect - a quick walk to the beach with a great view of the beach. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the sunsets and utilizing the downstairs swing and chair when it was raining. We would absolutely return to Sandy Bottoms and look forward to planning another visit soon!
