Lovely location for a beach vacation

We had a wonderful time at this lovely beach home. There was plenty of room for all 13 of us to gather together or all have our own space to do our own thing. Everything was very clean and we had everything we needed. We were within easy walking distance to the beach. The owner was available right away when we needed him. I would definitely stay again!

One of the nicest beach rentals I’ve stayed in!

Beach Bound was a perfect home for our weekend getaway. It felt like I was staying at a family’s home rather than a rental property - the house was absolutely spotless, and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped, with new appliances, and the ice maker was such a nice touch. The house was just a short five minute walk to the beach, which was perfect! Great communication too from Jack & Kim.

This is a beautiful home in a very quiet and friendly neighborhood. The house is well-appointed, comfortable, and large, but still cozy and family friendly. They had most every kitchen gadget we needed. Jack kept in touch during our stay and invited us to ask questions about the house if we needed to. Jack and Kim were excellent hosts and we look forward to a future stay at Beach Bound!

Perfect family rental

This place was very clean and the owners were very friendly and very communicative during our entire stay. If we had questions, they were available to answer them via text message or call. We had a large group of 11 people, and there were enough beds for everyone to have their own. The place was close enough to the beach Accessible by a five minute walk. We enjoyed our stay very much and the view from the balconies was great.

Jack was very quick to respond when we had a question and quickly took care of a small issue we had. Morgantown Is low key and didn’t have all the “noise” as Gulf Shores did over spring break.

An Awesome Week and a Beautiful Home!

The house was perfect. We had two families totaling 10 people. There was more than enough room for everyone, with beds to spare. The house was clean and well appointed and the beach was just a short walk. We loved being able to wake up in the morning to a beautiful view of the ocean from the third floor porch. The kitchen was well appointed and the large dining room table made it easy to have family dinners. The owners were extremely easy to work with and responsive. We definitely look forward to renting this home again!

Wonderful vacation

We had 6 Adults and 4 children ages 3 to 9. This property gives what they say ! We couldn't have asked for anything better. Plenty of room for all of us, with room to get quiet time to yourself if needed. A short walk to the beach and 2 pools. The beach and ocean were great! A cup of coffee early each day in a screened porch watching the sunrise. Doesn't get any better than that. One way we judge vacations, is would we come back. In a heartbeat!! Jack & Kim were very good hosts, with helpful communication throughout the process. from time of booking until or departure.

We came back!

The property where is immaculate and we love all the porches! Virtually gave everyone a private place to relax. Got to see the blue angels practice right over the beach in front of us! That was quite a treat. Feature not included at every house was a commercial icemaker. It just kept turning out ice and we used it and saved us a trip to the store. But the place is as advertised. The walk to the beach Takes about five minutes. Overall we totally enjoyed the visit!

Beautiful, amazing, good location

We shared this amazing house with another family. It worked perfectly for us with all the kids (4 adults and 12 kids). The kitchen is beautiful, spacious, and well stocked and the dining area was big enough for all of us. There are plenty of bathrooms for everyone. It was a short walk to the beach and pool. We all enjoyed sitting on the balconies and relaxing- lots of comfortable outdoor seating. It has an outdoor shower and hose for cleaning off after being at the beach. We will definitely book this house again if we make a return visit in the future. The owner was very quick about getting in touch with us. There were great instructions all around the house. Everything was ready and clean for us; made it very easy and enjoyable.

All of us loved this AMAZING house! It was very clean and well stocked with necessities. The whole house was so bright and cheery! The kitchen had everything we needed--and more! It had multiple sets of dishes, plenty of silverware, all sizes of pots and pans, a griddle, waffle maker, rice cooker, hand mixer, coffee maker, and other appliances. There were 13 family members (4 families) that stayed in the house. It was roomy enough that we could all get together or we could split off into smaller groups. The elevator was a huge plus for getting our things in and out. We definitely want to return! All of our texts with questions were immediately answered and addressed. Jack was fun to work with.

Our stay at Beachbound

The house and location to the beach are amazing. We are a family of sixteen. Eight adults and eight children. The children range from age four to ten. We had plenty of space to sleep, eat meals, cook, play or just sit around and relax. There were plenty of decks and porches to just get away and read or just spend some quiet time. We could see the beach from the upper floor. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of space to prepare meals. We even had several occasions to invite other family members over for dinner or just to visit. Our whole group consisted of about 35 family members that were also visiting Gulf Shores. The walk to the beach took about two minutes to the boardwalk and another two minutes to the beach. The beach was fantastic. It was never crowded. I walked every morning for half an hour on the beach around 5:30 and maybe met five people on my walk. One morning I didn’t see anyone. Contacting Kim and Jack was never difficult. I had several questions before our trip and they would contact me within minutes of me sending an email or phone call. They were very easy to talk with and couldn’t have been nicer. This was our first visit to Gulf Shores and I feel so lucky that we found this house. I would recommend staying here . Morgantown is a great place to stay in Gulf Shores because of it’s proximity to the hustle and bustle of Gulf Shores but yet its also far enough away so you can enjoy the relaxing quiet of the beaches. Thank you Kim and Jack for letting us enjoy your beautiful house. We couldn’t have picked a nicer place to stay.
