Some beach houses put you near the water. This one puts you on it.

Take Me A Wave is a beautifully renovated 8-bedroom, 6.5-bath beachfront home sitting directlyon a quiet, uncrowded stretch of Fort Morgan beach. No condos. No crowds. Just sugar-white sand, stunning Gulf views, and a house built for the kind of vacation your group will be talking about for years.

⭐ MADE FOR GROUPS. BUILT FOR FAMILIES.

Most beach houses make you choose between space and privacy. Take Me A Wave gives you both.

The open-concept main living area brings everyone together, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing breathtaking Gulf views from the living room, dining table, and kitchen. Three plush sofas, a large dining table, and two full-length Gulf-facing decks mean there's always somewhere to unwind, no matter how big your group.

When it's time to wind down, the upstairs splits into TWO COMPLETELY SEPARATE WINGS. The East Wing and West Wing each have their own bedrooms, bathrooms, and deck access, so different families or friend groups can have their own space without anyone feeling on top of each other. It's the layout guests mention more than almost anything else, and it's what makes this house work so well for groups of all sizes and ages.

Parking for 6+ vehicles is available on the property, so no matter how many cars your group rolls in with, you're covered.

⭐ THE KITCHENS

Two full kitchens. It sounds like a nice bonus until you're actually using them. Then it's a game changer.

Use one kitchen for food and the other for drinks. Run both ovens at once for a big group dinner. Have breakfast going in one while someone makes coffee in the other. However you use them, having two fully equipped kitchens with stainless steel appliances means a large group never has to feel like they're tripping over each other.

TWO KITCHENS MEANS YOU'LL HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED:

✔️ Two stoves, ovens, refrigerators, microwaves & dishwashers
✔️ Two coffee makers (Keurig K-Cup & drip)
✔️ Toaster oven, blender, electric kettle & crock pot
✔️ Full set of pots, pans, silverware, plates, cups & cutting boards
✔️ Spice rack with spices

The second kitchen also serves as a coffee bar, and comes complete with a custom surfboard table perfect for unwinding with a drink or playing a round of board games. Your stay includes a complimentary supply of coffees, teas, creamer, and sugar — ready and waiting when you arrive.

With two full-length decks facing the Gulf, mornings here have a way of turning into afternoons. Grab a coffee, find a chair, and watch for dolphins in the Gulf...and don't be surprised if the Blue Angels make an appearance overhead too. Not a bad way to ease into the day.

⭐ YOUR PRIVATE BEACH

Step off the back deck and you're on the sand. Not a short walk to the beach. Not shared beach access down the street. The beach is your backyard.

Fort Morgan's coastline is a world away from the crowded public beaches of Gulf Shores. On most days, guests tell us they can count the number of people who walk by on one hand. It's the kind of beach that reminds you what a beach vacation is supposed to feel like.

Our large storage closet is stocked with everything you need:

✔️ Beach chairs & umbrella
✔️ Beach wagon
✔️ Paddle board & boogie boards
✔️ Fishing rod holders (bring your own poles)
✔️ Beach toys

Fort Morgan is also one of the most dog-friendly beaches on the Gulf Coast. Leashed dogs are welcome on the sand, making this a true home away from home for the whole family, fur babies included. 🐾

⭐ WHEN THE BEACH BRINGS YOU BACK IN

The custom hot/cold outdoor shower gets you cleaned up and ready for whatever comes next. Take Me A Wave has no shortage of ways to keep everyone entertained, rain or shine.

INDOORS:

✔️ Arcade machine in the living room (12 classic games including Ms. Pac-Man & Galaga!)
✔️ Full cabinet of board games for all ages

OUTSIDE UNDER THE HOUSE:

✔️ Giant Connect 4
✔️ Cornhole
✔️ Giant Jenga
✔️ Ring toss and hook & ring games
✔️ Charcoal grill (guests supply charcoal)
✔️ Outdoor high-top bar with seating
✔️ Built-in benches & picnic table
✔️ String lights overhead for evening hangouts

From the living room arcade to the games and string lights underneath the house, evenings here have a way of taking care of themselves.

⭐ GETTING OUT & ABOUT

The secluded setting and two full kitchens make it easy to never leave. But when you're ready, there's plenty nearby.

Sassy Bass (restaurant, grocery & liquor store) is less than a mile away. Several more restaurants are within a 10-minute drive. Downtown Gulf Shores is about 20-25 minutes down the road.

WORTH THE SHORT DRIVE:

⛳ Mini golf at Pirate's Island or go-karts at The Track
🎡 OWA Indoor Water Park
🏰 Historic Fort Morgan
⛴️ Ferry to Dauphin Island & the Aquarium
🌿 Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge hiking trails

    Nice location! Quiet and not crowded. First floor area nice size and clean. Upstairs area bathrooms VERY small( I can stand in the middle of the bathrooms and touch the walls both ways). Looks like closets were converted to bathrooms. One side had one of those small bathrooms for 3 bedrooms. This may be ok for younger children but felt like munchkin land for adults.

    My family had a great time at this home. We had a total of 12 people with 4 toddlers under 4 and the house was big enough for all of us to feel comfortable. The location was great. The beach view from the decks is gorgeous. We were there on Memorial Day and the beach had minimal people on it. The kids enjoyed swimming and making sand castles. If you are staying in this home with kids, I would recommend bringing flash lights to catch the sand crabs after dark. It was a highlight of the trip. The host was very responsive both during booking and while we were in the home. Once we booked, we were sent a digital guidebook which was great. The check in went seamless. If you have alot of people, I would recommend bringing a couple of beach towels. There are some in the house but not enough for a large crowd.

    We really enjoyed our time here! The house was spacious and clean with a beautiful view of the beach. The guys golfed at three nearby courses during our stay, and the town of Gulf Shores was an easy 20 minute drive from the house. Great memories made for our first trip to Gulf Shores/Ft. Morgan!

    Perfect location! Love being that close to the beach. Was even comfortable enough to let my kids stay on the beach while I ran to the house to grab something. We absolutely loved all the games that were set up on the bottom floor and with all the beach toys and chairs there for us to use.

    This day was absolutely amazing and so much fun. The house had everything and was so nicely divided to where kids could stay on one side of the house and adults can stay on the other and not have to worry about making too much noise. We will be back.

    This beach house was wonderful for our family of 14 plus 1 fur baby. We had the best time and really enjoyed all the extras amenities that David provides with the house. The game room under the house was an added bonus, we had so much fun down there. You can’t beat the view and the private beach is great!! David is really nice and very helpful and a great host. Thank you David for all your help and your interest in our family having a great time. I definately would recommend this beach house to anyone looking for the perfect house for a large group. We will be back!

    We had a great stay at this beach house. The location is unbeatable—right on the ocean with a beautiful, secluded view and easy access to a quiet, uncrowded beach. The house is well-equipped, featuring two full kitchens and a fantastic porch that's perfect for relaxing and enjoying the ocean breeze. The host was responsive and helpful—when we had a minor HVAC issue, they had the refrigerant refilled promptly with no hassle. Overall, a peaceful and comfortable getaway spot.

    We fell in love with this place!! Located directly on the beach, navigating back and forth was super easy! The owners of this house have really gone the extra mile to provide all the “little things” we might have wanted during our stay. The coffee bar was nicely stocked, as well as all the kitchen things we might need. There were ample beds and plenty of space for our large adult party of 15. The deck furniture on the back porch, as well as the built in counter, made morning coffee and dolphin watching something we all enjoyed. This house was very clean and clearly well kept. We couldn’t have asked for a better home away from home!

    100% going to stay here again. The host is informative and easy to contact. The property is well kept and clean. It is beautifully decorated. Every room has a sound machine and extra blankets. We had 9 adults. Everyone found the mattresses very comfortable. 2 separate fully equipped kitchens was a game changer for people who love to cook a lot. The extra fridge space meant we could store drinks inside one fridge and food in the other. We had a minor issue with the Roku televisions when we first checked in. I messaged the owner and had a reply/resolution in minutes.
