About the Property

**The house's pier was damaged during Hurricane Sally, but should be fixed by March 2021.**
 
Bordering the Fort Morgan National Wildlife Preserve, the Little House by the Bay is a perfect place to relax, get away, and just let the world go by. Located on 2 acres, with 150 feet of waterfront on beautiful and historic Mobile Bay. This is a great place to fish, crab, or enjoy the nearby white sandy beaches. The location is secluded and very private, although high levels of activities are just a few minutes away.
 
A short drive across highway 180 and you are on the beautiful white sandy public beaches adjacent to the National Wildlife Preserve. Enjoy the blue water and surf during the day, and in just a few minutes, you are back at the Little House by the Bay.
 
The property includes a 130-foot pier to fish, crab and sunbathe.  If you are a boater, you can moor your boat 150' offshore at mooring posts and wade in waist-deep. By boat, you are just a 20-minute boat ride from Lulu Buffet's Bar and Grill and all the sites of Gulf Shores. Further to the East on the intercoastal, and you are at Orange Beach and Perdido Pass.  
 
A 16-mile boat ride to the West will put you at Fort Morgan and the Mouth of Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. A bit further West and you are at Dauphin Island. Some of the best in-shore and off-shore fishing and crabbing are right at your fingertips.  
 
The Little House by the Bay is a 1,000 square foot cottage with a large great room (den kitchen) and a very large bedroom with a king-size bed, a twin bed, and a bunk bed. The couch is also comfortable and blow up mattresses can be put in the den.  There is bed sleeping for 5, and room a for a few others. The house has been recently refurbished inside and out and is nicely appointed, with fine furnishings and all the modern amenities.
 
Leave your stress behind and immerse yourself in unparalleled relaxation at the Little House by the Bay!

Wonderful and Relaxing

Mark R. Aug 24, 2021

If anyone is looking for a place to relax, get away from hustle and bustle, and recharge, this is it. The cottage is as described in many of the other reviews. It’s clean, neat, cozy, well equipped, and has every amenity. What the pictures, reviews, and description can’t describe, is the feel and vibe. The house and location, give you a real Island, low country feel. While being only a short drive to Gulf Shores, it has a very secluded, isolated feel, that is both comforting, and transforming. Best described as almost getting caught up in everyone’s desire for an escape to a tropical island. Everything you need is located close by. We discovered a wonderful seafood market, butcher shop, and fresh produce store, very close by, next to the Dollar General. Also Pines Grocery has everything you need for enjoying fishing, and the beach. Fishing from the dock, is very very good. Boil your bait shrimp first, it makes it harder for the croakers to steal. We caught numerous Lady Fish, sea trout, catfish, and croakers. Dauphins were abundant daily, and some mornings would come almost to the dock. Sunrise, unmatched sunsets, church bells every 1/2 hour, seagulls, and pelicans. It’s all part of an unforgettable experience that Don and Kay offer at there Little House by the Bay. Regardless of where you are from, you will be transformed to another world, and will have a beach vacation like no other.

Peaceful and charming

Perfect getaway for two lifelong friends. Owners are kind and accommodating. The property is beautiful, we especially enjoyed sitting on the pier. The house had everything we needed. We are already talking about going back. Highly recommend for a vacation stay.

Little House by the Bay checks all the boxes for our vacation!
