Located 17.3 miles down Fort Morgan Road from Highway 59, our home sits at the peaceful end of the peninsula in a quiet residential area. We suggest stocking up on groceries, supplies, and gas before making the scenic drive out, as shopping options are limited once you arrive. For convenience, Instacart delivers to the area, which many guests find helpful. While there are a few local restaurants, a Dollar General, and a beach market nearby, trips back to town require planning ahead.
Take Highway 59 into Gulf Shores. Turn WEST (Right if traveling from the north) on Fort Morgan Road / Alabama 180 and drive 17.3 miles. You will pass Pontoon Avenue and Vacation Lane. Turn LEFT on Anderson Street (look for the bright tangerine colored house.) Go to the end and turn right on Ponce de Leon Court. 2933 is about six (6) houses down and will be on the RIGHT side of the road directly across from the octagon house. The Jellyfish Twist sign will signal your arrival.
