Highlights
Welcome to Longview! This super cute beach cottage just received a total facelift! Check out the photos to see the transformation.
When your vacation plans don't allow for a full week or if your group will be on the smaller side, then Longview might be the perfect fit! This adorable cottage is located in desirable Surfside Shores. This quiet community offers access to the beautiful white sand, pet friendly beaches. And Longview offers the perfect alternative for those guests that choose to travel with their dog since most condos are not pet friendly.
You will fall in love with this storybook beach house. Beautifully renovated and tastefully decorated, it truly is everything you wish for in a beach vacation. You are close to the beach but the home sits on a large lot on a quiet street, so you'll have the best of both worlds.
The Space
The furnishings are calming and welcoming, inviting you take off your shoes and stay awhile. There are two bedrooms and two full baths. The first bedroom has a Queen bed and the second has one Full and one Twin. There is also a sleeper sofa in the comfy living room, bringing the sleep count to 7.
The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a conveniently located washer and dryer. And it is equipped with all you'll need to prepare tasty meals at home should you choose to dine in.
* Renter must be at least 25 years of age. Guests under 25 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

Surfside and Fort Morgan
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.

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.

The rental was nice.
It looked clean, but you could tell it needed a good cleaning.
I was very disappointed that I wasn't told ahead of time about the lock on the door.
We slept there and left our dog there for 2 days and nights, assuming that the door locked automatically when you shut it.
I had no idea that you had to turn the deadbolt lock until you heard a little noise and that would lock the door.
I was totally IN shock when my grandson tested the door and it was unlocked. I then had to call and ask about the lock, she then explained how it locked.
For it to be a pet friendly house. I feel like the backyard should be mowed. It was terrible there to take the dog out.
The 1st 2 stairs going down are slanted downwards, I felt that was dangerous.
Also, the bottles of hand soap needed replaced. Not left with some water added to stretch them further, that should have been used elsewhere, not in a rental that I paid 2000.00 + to stay in.
Manager's Response
Hi Loanann and thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent stay. We are sorry to hear that you had difficulty with the lock but happy to hear that you figured it out. This hasn't been an issue in the past, but we will be mindful of it going forward. It sounds like a previous guest left hand soap; this isn't something that we provide. Guests are advised that we provide a starter set of amenities, but they are responsible for bringing what will be needed for the duration of their stay. Because of protected wildlife, in particular, the endangered beach mouse, we do not typically mow the sea oats or other natural vegetation in our coastal community. We will definitely take a look at the stairs. Thank you for pointing that out!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Longview. Cute decor inside and such a bonus having fenced back yard for our dogs! It was not the most convenient location to beach so if you are hauling a lot to beach, would recommend getting a golf cart since you can’t park a car near beach access. One thing that might make this house more inviting to future guests would be to clean up the outdoor area. Lots of items that just need to be thrown away-broken hammock, gas firepit, multiple beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. that I’m guessing previous guests left behind. Overall, would recommend!

We appreciate your great feedback Lana! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we'd welcome you back for a future visit. Thanks for staying with us!

Beach feel and quaint home. Easily sleeps 4/5. There could be some games or cards. Loved the shell sign on idea! Please come up with a better idea for the shower curtains. It’s difficult to shower while being attacked by the curtains! Allison is lovely and very attentive.

Our 4th year coming to Fort Morgan, we love this neighborhood, quiet, close to Kiva Dunes where I play golf in the winter, only 15-20 min into GS and such a "walk-able" neighborhood we love it. Fenced in yard is the only thing we'd recommend "tightening up" our dogs did get out once (although we have no idea how) but there are some loose spots in the fence. Thank you for a great stay!

Thanks for staying with us Jeremy! We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your extended visit at Longview and we'd welcome you back for another stay in the future.

The beach house was very nice and clean. Everything you would need for a great vacation. The location was great for us. A little ways from the beach but not too far. The fenced in area was wonderful for our Daisy. The neighborhood was so peaceful. I would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed the close walk to the beach. We payed a lot of money for this house, and the living room ceiling leaked when it rained during our stay. Overall cute house.
