Beaucoup soulignent l'intérieur impeccable, les lits confortables et une cuisine bien équipée qui facilite la préparation de ses propres repas. Les propriétaires et les gestionnaires reçoivent constamment des éloges pour leur communication amicale et réactive, ainsi que pour un enregistrement et un départ fluides. L'emplacement semble isolé de la foule, mais se trouve à une courte distance en voiture de Gulf Shores, Fort Morgan, des réserves fauniques et des plages peu fréquentées, et un client a trouvé le panneau au bord de la route difficile à repérer. Attendez-vous à un séjour paisible, privé et axé sur la nature.

We so love staying at Bay Cottage! VERY quiet and peaceful! Love that you can walk out the back door onto the dock and fish whenever you want. Love the screened in porch and relaxing and listening to the bay. If you’re looking for peace and quiet, this is your place!

Wonderful stay in charming, vintage cottage with comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen (even has cast iron pans and spices) and large screened porch with plenty of rocking chairs. Quiet and private. Clean, clean, clean! Great air conditioner. Beautiful original heart pine floors are satiny smooth for bare feet. Gorgeous live oaks and natural plants lead to an unobstructed view of the bay. Spent many hours enjoying the porch, the dock and walking the long drive full of natural magnolia, and flowering lantana. Heron and pelican put on a real show at the end of the dock in the evenings! A Dollar General is only a couple of miles away and has absolutely everything, even fresh vegetables. Loved taking our Blue Heeler to a dog friendly beach about four miles away. She also enjoyed exploring and cooling off in the bay water using the gently sloped boat launch area to the right of the pier. The cottage has a dog bowl, leash, toys and treats in case you need them. Owners give great directions and communication. Such a peaceful place!

Bay Cottage was amazing. Comfortably accommodated our family of 6 adults; had plenty of room. Fished daily off the dock and caught multiple fish. 2 days spent on the beaches were perfect. The breeze off the Gulf kept the body temperature perfect. Went to the beach in Gulf State Park one day, and to the Public Beach at the end of Mobile Street (half mile from cottage) the other day. Both beaches were great. Recommend both of them. Hiked the full 5 mile Pine Beach trail and around Gator Lake. Beautiful trail that starts across street from cottage driveway. Greatly enjoyed, but recommend you do early morning before heat sets in. The best were the evenings spent on the screened porch after watching sun sets and the daily temps subside. Sharing laughs and stories after a day of fun. Bay Cottage is a special place, especially for our daughter, as she became ENGAGED while in this magical setting. Thank you Maggie and Mark for sharing your home with us! And...shout out to property manager Martha for making the planning of the trip so seamless.

My husband, doggo, and I had a wonderful stay. Many thanks to Maggie who is an incredibly thoughtful host.The warm weather, so much wildlife, and beautiful night skies have been our favorite parts of our stay. Having the pier right there at the cottage was a dream! And the cottage itself was so cute and just perfect. I work remotely so I worked a bit while my husband and doggo enjoyed just relaxing and reading on the pier.

We’ve chosen to take our annual vacation in Fort Morgan for many years. We have always had a large dog(s) which we like to bring along. We’ve stayed on the gulf side, the lagoon, and now the bayside! This was a first. I really appreciated this unique home (it truly feels like a home, not a rental. It had everything we needed and more. There was even a pet basket where some of the cottage’s supplies for your pets were easily accessible! I’m an artist so the decor and interesting touches throughout the home was a bonus for me. So many interesting things and I loved the eclectic style! The location was great because it’s secluded without being completely isolated. Pier was awesome and we kayaked from the boat ramp (use your bug spray when you’re adventuring in a forest, for goodness sakes!) I rode my bike up and down the long drive and felt like I was in a whole different place. Muscadines and beauty berries were out in all of their splendor. Herons and pelicans galore to watch throughout the day. We did see dolphins as well. I can’t say enough about the large screened porch - we had many days of rain and weren’t in the mood for sand and whatnot… the porch was fantastic and you can even have lunch or dinner around the table out there! We would stay here again the next time we want a bayside vacation!

We enjoyed our vacation at this lovely cottage! We loved that there was a private dock and we were able to catch fish and crabs off of it. We saw dolphins early in the morning and again at sunset. The sunsets were beautiful! There was easy access for launching kayaks and we appreciated that it was pet friendly. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Communication with the owner was excellent.

Relaxing week of morning coffee on the dock, reading and meals on the porch, fishing, the beach, trail walks, grilling, watching the sunset and dolphins from the dock and kayaking. Will definitely be back. House is conveniently located but away from spring break crowds. Clean and had everything we needed.

We found it difficult to find the cottage, the sign needs to be more visible and updated. It was all faded. Overall, we were satisfied with the country cabin charm. Loved the porch!! Enjoyed watching the dolphins from the pier, along with seeing eagles and blue herons.

This property is a rare gem. It is an old cabin that has been beautifully restored while retaining the vintage charm. The floors, walls, and ceilings are all wood. The house was clean and well furnished. Very private and quiet. Far enough from the pavement to escape traffic noise. Expansive views of Mobile Bay and the long pier is great for viewing fabulous sunsets and sunrises or for casting a fishing lure if you like. Located approximately halfway between Gulf Shores and the Dauphin Island ferry which was convenient since we visited both during our 7 night stay.

First, I must start off by expressing my gratitude to the owner, Maggie, for her professionalism and compassion. We had a booking that ultimately needed to be rescheduled due to the sudden passing of my husband's mother. Maggie was so considerate of our situation, not only did she let us reschedule at the last minute, she sent me available dates and once we picked a new date, she changed the booking for us so we didn't have to do anything. That meant so much to us especially during a chaotic time. Now, in to the property: it was magnificent. Pictures don't do it justice. The house was comfortable and clean. We never left the property once there. We didn't need to. It was so peaceful and while they do have a new house built next door, it's still very secluded and was so quiet. During our stay, it was very windy and cold so we didn't get to enjoy the pier that much but we did enjoy walking our dogs up and down the long, wooded driveway. It was great for exercise and my dogs couldn't get enough of the area. I'm so happy and grateful that dogs are allowed because we love traveling with our pups. We picked up after our dogs each time and it appears other guests were just as courteous as the yard was very tidy in that regard. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the house immensely.

My husband and I visit Gulf Shores nearly every year and love to stay on the bay. This was our first time staying at the Bay Cottage, and we would definitely stay again. The house sits in the perfect location - close enough to all the action but far enough away that it’s private and quiet. The private pier is perfect for fishing and crabbing, and for catching those beautiful sunsets over the water. Kenny the peacock came to visit every evening like clockwork and was a welcome delight. We enjoyed a seafood boil while there, and the kitchen had most everything we needed to cook with. The new Dollar General towards Fort Morgan was clean and well-stocked, and kept us from having to go into town for anything we ended up needing quickly. The house was clean and very welcoming, the bed comfortable. Our Yorkie had a blast going for walks on the pier to watch the birds and check the crab pots. I think he’s bored now that we’re home. Thanks for sharing your home with us, and we hope to come back again someday! Thank you to both Maggie and Martha for great communication and responding quickly when I had questions, and especially Martha for helping when I realized I had left something behind.

Bay Cottage was amazing. Comfortably accommodated our family of 6 adults; had plenty of room. Fished daily off the dock and caught multiple fish. 2 days spent on the beaches were perfect. The breeze off the Gulf kept the body temperature perfect. Went to the beach in Gulf State Park one day, and to the Public Beach at the end of Mobile Street (half mile from cottage) the other day. Both beaches were great. Recommend both of them. Hiked the full 5 mile Pine Beach trail and around Gator Lake. Beautiful trail that starts across street from cottage driveway. Greatly enjoyed, but recommend you do early morning before heat sets in. The best were the evenings spent on the screened porch after watching sun sets and the daily temps subside. Sharing laughs and stories after a day of fun. Bay Cottage is a special place, especially for our daughter, as she became ENGAGED while in this magical setting. Thank you Maggie and Mark for sharing your home with us! And...shout out to property manager Martha for making the planning of the trip so seamless.

This sweet cottage was the perfect answer to solving life’s stressors for the week we were staying! The dock with the picture perfect Adirondack chairs gave a beautiful place to watch sunrise with coffee AND sunset with a glass of wine. A little fishing continued the zen like feeling! We saw dolphins swim by in the morning. The sky was ever changing and the breeze was welcoming! We were close enough to the activity in Gulf Shores (we gravitated to Orange Beach though), and easy access to Fort Morgan. There is a beautiful and relaxing beach only about a mile away, with public access, but there were very few houses! Just surf fishermen and pristine beach. It seemed almost private. The kitchen was stocked with quality pans and kitchenware in general which was nice. The screen porch and the view of the water was so perfect and relaxing with the several rocking chairs to choose from. The beds were comfy and we had plenty of space. Even loved the little sunroom and day bed. What can I say… we loved it all! The owners communicated really well and gave us lots of info in advance. Hope to be back!!

We loved this place. Quiet, beautiful views, WONDERFUL screened porch. Loved drinking Coffee in the morning out there. Our dogs did so well and loved just walking around and behaved excellent. We stayed for 21 days and this was are first time in Gulf Shores. We are planning to return at some point. You will not be disappointed with this location. It looks just like the pictures. Rustic but comfortable and perfect for us.

This beautiful home is exactly like it is represented here. Maggie the owner was a delight to deal with! She made sure that we had everything we could ever need or want. The home has enough room for everyone to have their space while also making it easy to share family time. Fishing off the pier was so much fun. We caught catfish, crabs, croakers etc... It was also the perfect place to watch the dolphins! The cottage is also in the perfect location to go out and about just about everything was close by.

My husband and I visit Gulf Shores nearly every year and love to stay on the bay. This was our first time staying at the Bay Cottage, and we would definitely stay again. The house sits in the perfect location - close enough to all the action but far enough away that it’s private and quiet. The private pier is perfect for fishing and crabbing, and for catching those beautiful sunsets over the water. Kenny the peacock came to visit every evening like clockwork and was a welcome delight. We enjoyed a seafood boil while there, and the kitchen had most everything we needed to cook with. The new Dollar General towards Fort Morgan was clean and well-stocked, and kept us from having to go into town for anything we ended up needing quickly. The house was clean and very welcoming, the bed comfortable. Our Yorkie had a blast going for walks on the pier to watch the birds and check the crab pots. I think he’s bored now that we’re home. Thanks for sharing your home with us, and we hope to come back again someday! Thank you to both Maggie and Martha for great communication and responding quickly when I had questions, and especially Martha for helping when I realized I had left something behind.

Bay Cottage was amazing. Comfortably accommodated our family of 6 adults; had plenty of room. Fished daily off the dock and caught multiple fish. 2 days spent on the beaches were perfect. The breeze off the Gulf kept the body temperature perfect. Went to the beach in Gulf State Park one day, and to the Public Beach at the end of Mobile Street (half mile from cottage) the other day. Both beaches were great. Recommend both of them. Hiked the full 5 mile Pine Beach trail and around Gator Lake. Beautiful trail that starts across street from cottage driveway. Greatly enjoyed, but recommend you do early morning before heat sets in. The best were the evenings spent on the screened porch after watching sun sets and the daily temps subside. Sharing laughs and stories after a day of fun. Bay Cottage is a special place, especially for our daughter, as she became ENGAGED while in this magical setting. Thank you Maggie and Mark for sharing your home with us! And...shout out to property manager Martha for making the planning of the trip so seamless.

First, I must start off by expressing my gratitude to the owner, Maggie, for her professionalism and compassion. We had a booking that ultimately needed to be rescheduled due to the sudden passing of my husband's mother. Maggie was so considerate of our situation, not only did she let us reschedule at the last minute, she sent me available dates and once we picked a new date, she changed the booking for us so we didn't have to do anything. That meant so much to us especially during a chaotic time. Now, in to the property: it was magnificent. Pictures don't do it justice. The house was comfortable and clean. We never left the property once there. We didn't need to. It was so peaceful and while they do have a new house built next door, it's still very secluded and was so quiet. During our stay, it was very windy and cold so we didn't get to enjoy the pier that much but we did enjoy walking our dogs up and down the long, wooded driveway. It was great for exercise and my dogs couldn't get enough of the area. I'm so happy and grateful that dogs are allowed because we love traveling with our pups. We picked up after our dogs each time and it appears other guests were just as courteous as the yard was very tidy in that regard. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the house immensely.

We enjoyed our vacation at this lovely cottage! We loved that there was a private dock and we were able to catch fish and crabs off of it. We saw dolphins early in the morning and again at sunset. The sunsets were beautiful! There was easy access for launching kayaks and we appreciated that it was pet friendly. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Communication with the owner was excellent.

Had a wonderful stay at Bay Cottage! Would definitely stay again! It’s very quite and peaceful there. Got to see a peacock and had a very regular seagull guest we lovingly named Ernie. There’s a very long driveway back to the house that’s excellent to walk up and back in the mornings if that’s something that interests you. A dock in the backyard right on the bay for fishing and a very short drive to a public beach access on the Gulf which was never crowded. Also a great restaurant called Jesse’s that’s also on the bay and a very short drive to. Maggie is a great owner who is very responsive to your needs. We had a great stay and would stay there again.

This place is excellent for a private, romantic getaway or if you’re looking for a break from a busy life trying to relax! We will definitely recommend this place!

This property is a rare gem. It is an old cabin that has been beautifully restored while retaining the vintage charm. The floors, walls, and ceilings are all wood. The house was clean and well furnished. Very private and quiet. Far enough from the pavement to escape traffic noise. Expansive views of Mobile Bay and the long pier is great for viewing fabulous sunsets and sunrises or for casting a fishing lure if you like. Located approximately halfway between Gulf Shores and the Dauphin Island ferry which was convenient since we visited both during our 7 night stay.

It’s a very peaceful stay. We enjoyed walking our dogs down the long driveway and felt secluded. Our teenagers really enjoyed spending time out on the dock. Weather wasn’t great so we didn’t get to fish like we wanted but I hear it’s really good in that area.

We’ve chosen to take our annual vacation in Fort Morgan for many years. We have always had a large dog(s) which we like to bring along. We’ve stayed on the gulf side, the lagoon, and now the bayside! This was a first. I really appreciated this unique home (it truly feels like a home, not a rental. It had everything we needed and more. There was even a pet basket where some of the cottage’s supplies for your pets were easily accessible! I’m an artist so the decor and interesting touches throughout the home was a bonus for me. So many interesting things and I loved the eclectic style! The location was great because it’s secluded without being completely isolated. Pier was awesome and we kayaked from the boat ramp (use your bug spray when you’re adventuring in a forest, for goodness sakes!) I rode my bike up and down the long drive and felt like I was in a whole different place. Muscadines and beauty berries were out in all of their splendor. Herons and pelicans galore to watch throughout the day. We did see dolphins as well. I can’t say enough about the large screened porch - we had many days of rain and weren’t in the mood for sand and whatnot… the porch was fantastic and you can even have lunch or dinner around the table out there! We would stay here again the next time we want a bayside vacation!

My husband and two Goldendoodles had a fabulous time at Bayfront Cottage. Although the weather didn’t cooperate, there were plenty of things to do within minutes of the cottage. There were also several dog friendly places to go including Ft. Morgan beach, Ft Morgan, and The ferry to Dauphin Island. The cottage had everything we needed and the views were beautiful. We plan on returning soon!

The Bay Cottage is a perfect place for your family vacation! It is far enough away from town to enjoy some quiet time on the screened porch but close enough to town to go for dinner. The Peacock (Kenny) visited a couple times and is awesome. We used the beach access off the end of Mobile St which is part of the refuge and it is nice. We also enjoyed fishing off the pier and watching sunsets. The owner and manager are both very helpful. Would love to stay again in the future.

I chose this place because of its privacy and dog friendly accommodations. My husband and I were asked to keep our four month old granddaughter while my daughter and her husband attended a wedding in Gulf Shores. It was perfect for our needs. The property has very comfortable beds and the kitchen is well stocked with things you may have forgotten! There is a big porch that is so nice to sit on and watch the water. I recommend this property!

Wonderful stay in charming, vintage cottage with comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen (even has cast iron pans and spices) and large screened porch with plenty of rocking chairs. Quiet and private. Clean, clean, clean! Great air conditioner. Beautiful original heart pine floors are satiny smooth for bare feet. Gorgeous live oaks and natural plants lead to an unobstructed view of the bay. Spent many hours enjoying the porch, the dock and walking the long drive full of natural magnolia, and flowering lantana. Heron and pelican put on a real show at the end of the dock in the evenings! A Dollar General is only a couple of miles away and has absolutely everything, even fresh vegetables. Loved taking our Blue Heeler to a dog friendly beach about four miles away. She also enjoyed exploring and cooling off in the bay water using the gently sloped boat launch area to the right of the pier. The cottage has a dog bowl, leash, toys and treats in case you need them. Owners give great directions and communication. Such a peaceful place!

A Dollar General is only a couple of miles away and has absolutely everything, even fresh vegetables. Loved taking our Blue Heeler to a dog friendly beach about four miles away. She also enjoyed exploring and cooling off in the bay water using the gently sloped boat launch area to the right of the pier. The cottage has a dog bowl, leash, toys and treats in case you need them. Owners give great directions and communication. Such a peaceful place!

We’ve chosen to take our annual vacation in Fort Morgan for many years. We have always had a large dog(s) which we like to bring along. We’ve stayed on the gulf side, the lagoon, and now the bayside! This was a first. I really appreciated this unique home (it truly feels like a home, not a rental. It had everything we needed and more. There was even a pet basket where some of the cottage’s supplies for your pets were easily accessible! I’m an artist so the decor and interesting touches throughout the home was a bonus for me. So many interesting things and I loved the eclectic style! The location was great because it’s secluded without being completely isolated. Pier was awesome and we kayaked from the boat ramp (use your bug spray when you’re adventuring in a forest, for goodness sakes!) I rode my bike up and down the long drive and felt like I was in a whole different place. Muscadines and beauty berries were out in all of their splendor. Herons and pelicans galore to watch throughout the day. We did see dolphins as well. I can’t say enough about the large screened porch - we had many days of rain and weren’t in the mood for sand and whatnot… the porch was fantastic and you can even have lunch or dinner around the table out there! We would stay here again the next time we want a bayside vacation!

After you drive down the 1/4 mile treed drive, the bay is right in front of you. Saw more of Kenny the peacock than any neighbors. Only two or three human sightings from the dock. Brought two dogs that loved the dock and property. It is only a 10 minute drive to the thick of Gulf Shores and all the activities and dining, but you feel so isolated. Property was more than we had hoped it would be. Plenty of space inside and out, with well equipped kitchen and lots of little extras. A fantastic respite!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed a week at Maggie's Cottage. My husband (and dog) had a great time fishing off the dock. I read and relaxed in the air conditioning. Had a wonderful meal at Jesse's By the Bay, just down the road. Highly recommend!

This sweet cottage was the perfect answer to solving life’s stressors for the week we were staying! The dock with the picture perfect Adirondack chairs gave a beautiful place to watch sunrise with coffee AND sunset with a glass of wine. A little fishing continued the zen like feeling! We saw dolphins swim by in the morning. The sky was ever changing and the breeze was welcoming! We were close enough to the activity in Gulf Shores (we gravitated to Orange Beach though), and easy access to Fort Morgan. There is a beautiful and relaxing beach only about a mile away, with public access, but there were very few houses! Just surf fishermen and pristine beach. It seemed almost private. The kitchen was stocked with quality pans and kitchenware in general which was nice. The screen porch and the view of the water was so perfect and relaxing with the several rocking chairs to choose from. The beds were comfy and we had plenty of space. Even loved the little sunroom and day bed. What can I say… we loved it all! The owners communicated really well and gave us lots of info in advance. Hope to be back!!

Relaxing week of morning coffee on the dock, reading and meals on the porch, fishing, the beach, trail walks, grilling, watching the sunset and dolphins from the dock and kayaking. Will definitely be back. House is conveniently located but away from spring break crowds. Clean and had everything we needed.

Had a wonderful stay at Bay Cottage! Would definitely stay again! It’s very quite and peaceful there. Got to see a peacock and had a very regular seagull guest we lovingly named Ernie. There’s a very long driveway back to the house that’s excellent to walk up and back in the mornings if that’s something that interests you. A dock in the backyard right on the bay for fishing and a very short drive to a public beach access on the Gulf which was never crowded. Also a great restaurant called Jesse’s that’s also on the bay and a very short drive to. Maggie is a great owner who is very responsive to your needs. We had a great stay and would stay there again.

The Bay Cottage is a perfect place for your family vacation! It is far enough away from town to enjoy some quiet time on the screened porch but close enough to town to go for dinner. The Peacock (Kenny) visited a couple times and is awesome. We used the beach access off the end of Mobile St which is part of the refuge and it is nice. We also enjoyed fishing off the pier and watching sunsets. The owner and manager are both very helpful. Would love to stay again in the future.

My husband and I visit Gulf Shores nearly every year and love to stay on the bay. This was our first time staying at the Bay Cottage, and we would definitely stay again. The house sits in the perfect location - close enough to all the action but far enough away that it’s private and quiet. The private pier is perfect for fishing and crabbing, and for catching those beautiful sunsets over the water. Kenny the peacock came to visit every evening like clockwork and was a welcome delight. We enjoyed a seafood boil while there, and the kitchen had most everything we needed to cook with. The new Dollar General towards Fort Morgan was clean and well-stocked, and kept us from having to go into town for anything we ended up needing quickly. The house was clean and very welcoming, the bed comfortable. Our Yorkie had a blast going for walks on the pier to watch the birds and check the crab pots. I think he’s bored now that we’re home. Thanks for sharing your home with us, and we hope to come back again someday! Thank you to both Maggie and Martha for great communication and responding quickly when I had questions, and especially Martha for helping when I realized I had left something behind.

Maggie is a great hostess! She’s responsive to emails and texts. The cottage was just as expected…cozy and quiet! Great bike riding path to town…hopefully the next one we come down..the path the opposite direction will be finished. Great restaurant not far away..Jesse’s On the Bay.Would recommend renting this hidden gem!

Beautiful and quiet property. Maggie was the best at communicating and recommending places to go and things to see. The Cottage though was where we spent most of our time. We will be back!

Our family of 4 had an excellent week here. We sat on the pier and watched dolphins and sunsets. We grilled some fresh fish and veggies. We slept great in the comfy beds and they had all the items needed for our stay.Great memories were made and we would stay here again for sure.

The owners were FANTASTIC! They were warm and welcoming to my family. They checked in to see how things were going. The place was exactly what we were looking for as well. We reached out to Maggie and Mark multiple times with questions about the house, the area in general and recommendations on places to see and go and they were great in responding quickly and their recommendations were great as well, especially the beach down the road which was not as over-crowded as the public beach downtown and the Charter Fishing recommendation was awesome. We will return.
