Welcome to Noah’s Ark: Your Beachfront Sanctuary
The Highlights
For some, a beachfront location is all that’s needed—but Noah's Ark offers so much more. With expansive outdoor decking, both covered and uncovered, you'll have plenty of space to unwind, enjoy the ocean breeze, and listen to the soothing sound of the surf just steps away. Watch the local wildlife, and if you're lucky, you might catch a breathtaking performance by the Blue Angels practicing along the coast. Inside, a wall of windows floods the living area with natural light, providing spectacular water views from virtually every corner. The home is equipped with thoughtful amenities like a commercial ice maker and a separate beverage fridge to make your stay even more comfortable.
The Space
This spacious two-story home features a grand great room with a wall of windows, maximizing your opportunity to enjoy the stunning views from the inside. The updated, fully-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare delicious meals, and the ample dining and living spaces ensure there's room for everyone to gather or spread out.
The primary bedroom, located on the upper level, boasts a King-sized bed, a private bath with a jetted tub and stall shower, and, of course, breathtaking views of the Gulf. There’s also a cozy loft area with a Twin-over-Twin bunk, perfect for kids or extra guests.
On the lower level, you'll find four additional bedrooms, each offering comfort and privacy. The King bedroom has its own private bath and also features magnificent Gulf views. The Queen room has access to a full bath, which opens both to the room and the hallway. The second Queen room and the bunk room share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, making them perfect for families or groups traveling together.
For your convenience, the ground level offers a hot/cold outdoor shower and a half bath, making it easy to rinse off after a day at the beach without bringing the sand and saltwater into the house.

Morgantown & Fort Morgan: A Hidden Gem
Morgantown is a charming, coastal community that’s known for its family-friendly atmosphere and pride of ownership. The neighborhood offers two sparkling swimming pools, a kiddie pool, two lighted tennis/pickleball courts, and several beach access boardwalks. The area is perfect for leisurely walks and bike rides, and many guests love renting golf carts to take in the sunset views. For those with small children or a preference for close parking, a public lot is conveniently located just west of Morgantown.
Located just 15 scenic miles from Gulf Shores, everything you need is nearby. Stock up on essentials at the Dollar General or Sassy Bass Market, or explore the many local restaurants that serve up fresh, flavorful dishes. Popular spots like Tacky Jack’s, Sassy Bass (with two locations), Coast, and the soon-to-open Jesse’s offer both great food and live local entertainment.
Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Fort Morgan Fishing Pier, where you can enjoy inshore fishing and reel in the area’s abundant species.
For nature lovers, a visit to the Bon Secour Wildlife Refuge is a must. With over 7,000 acres of pristine coastal habitat, the refuge offers four hiking trails of varying lengths and terrains. It’s the perfect spot to observe the region’s diverse flora and fauna and soak in the natural beauty of the Gulf Coast.

This is a beautiful house in a wonderful location. We had one small issue with some linens, but it was resolved quickly. The property manager was great to work with and there was plenty of room for our families to spread out and have a great time. We had a fantastic visit!

This is our 4th visit to Fort Morgan beachfront, and our 15th visit to the Gulf Shores region. Noah’s Ark has been one of our favorite stays. It is in close proximity to the beach, making it ideal for families with little lbs who need to potty, or nap, or eat every 30 mins (it seems). The outdoor private shower and toilet were very useful. This place has nearly 100 hooks throughout which is amazingly convenient for towels, wet suits, floats, shoes, etc. the light switches, cabinets, & drawers were all labeled which was also a great touch that took out guess work. We are cookers, and approved of the stocked kitchen. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Extra cozy blankets provided. Plenty of bath towels. Seating for 14 in all areas including eating and the porch. Living areas are spacious. Safety bed railings provided for any little that may need. Fun board games, puzzles, dvds, beach chairs, floats were all bonus items we enjoyed. Cheri, property manager, checked in with us on day 1 and was available throughout the stay. Charcoal grills and Griddle provided. Located immediately next to public entrance, but was not an issue at all. (Probably because there is no public parking allowed) beach was not crowded. Hoping to return. Hope this review helps others choose Noah’s Ark. Note: if you have little climbers, the upstairs loft is not a safe area for toddlers to be. The railing is low & has a ledge just perfect for their climbing feet. We chose to sleep downstairs due to.

We had an amazing stay at Noah's Ark! The house was clean and inviting. The owner was in contact with us from beginning to end. The ice maker was perfect, the kitchen was well stocked, the rooms were clean and comfortable. The beach was amazing. Two things to note: - You are not supposed to leave stuff on the beach overnight, but people do. We could not set up right in front of the house because another group kept their stuff up the entire time we were there. This, of course, does not go against the home itself. - While the upstairs bedroom is lovely, the morning sun shines through the upper windows. So if you are a light sleeper, I recommend bringing an eye mask or sleeping in the master bedroom downstairs. Same for the bunk on the loft. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.

Good, not great.
Spent Labor Day weekend at Noah's Ark with a group of 11 ranging from 4 to 74 years old. The layout of the house was great for a group of our size and the location / ease of beach access couldn't be beat. The kitchen was very well stocked in terms of dishes and cookware, and the kids enjoyed the sand toys and boogie boards found under the house.
The house definitely needs some love and more attention to cleaning prior to check in. It's a big house, and hard to get everything, but there was literally a small pile of sand in the closet 6 inches from where the vacuum is stored. The bunk beds in the bedroom on the main floor need to be discontinued. There are several sharp edges on the metal frame that they cover with tape and or dishtowels to make safe. It's also extremely wobbly if anyone is on the top bunk. There were a handful of other small issues - leaky kitchen faucet, a few bugs, very saggy floors in some places, etc.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and the beautiful views from the wall full of windows in the living room, but the condition of the house itself leaves much to be desired.

Perfect Getaway
We were able to have an amazing vacation at this house. The beach was fantastic and not crowded at all. The rooms were all a nice size, the kitchen and family rooms were also great. If I had one complaint, it’s that I didn’t like the note in the thermostat REQUIRING guests to keep the AC above 72 or threatening the AC unit would freeze and we would get charged - we usually keep our house cooler than that and this got frustrating after a warm day at the beach. Overall though it was A+ and we will 100% be back.
