About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Huge Estate Bay w/main house + 2 additional private cottages, pool, pier

Pelican Bay is a unique gathering of homes situated on a beautiful 2-acre estate overlooking the majestic Mobile Bay. Being located along the Fort Morgan peninsula and surrounded by massive oak trees gives you the ultimate in privacy and peace that you're truly looking forward to in a true waterfront destination while being a short drive from numerous Gulf-front beach accesses, boat launches, world-class golfing, restaurants, shopping, and fishing opportunities. Truly a home that has it all!

The entire property is made up of 3 homes that can handle any group up to 17 people and even your fur babies if you desire. The main cottage is a cozy 3,200 sq ft home with no detail left unimagined. Its Mediterranean style build is centered around a historic wood-burning fireplace that dates back to the early 1900s and boasts Spanish-tile flooring, expansive wood plank ceilings with custom skylights, plastered faux finished walls, a fully-stocked Italian kitchen with granite countertops, custom wood cabinets, 2 living rooms, a spacious attached screened-porch, and plenty of space for everyone to gather and entertain.

Also on-site are 2 spacious cottages that are separate from the main home. "Cozy Cottage" sits along the Bayfront and adjacent to the private pool where the views overtake your every sense. Its 500 sq ft open floor plan provides sleeping for 4 with 2 Queen beds, a TV, and a full bathroom that will leave you refreshed and revitalized. The 2nd cottage, "Diane's Hideaway" is 600 sq ft of spacious living located just behind the main dwelling and comfortably sleeps 4. This cottage hosts a Queen bed & Queen sofa sleeper, a full kitchen, a full bathroom, a TV, and a sizable living area that makes it a great additional space for everyone to spread out comfortably.

With all this beauty and luxury there is still more to enjoy! While staying at Pelican Bay you'll have access to countless on-site amenities, such as a large private pool, gas grill, and tons of outdoor space to play or lounge in the sun. Also, don't forget the amazing fishing pier with a large screened room that'll be a constant gathering place from sunrise breakfasts, to afternoon gatherings or naps, to evening dinners with breathtaking sunsets. (Pier and screened room are to be repaired by Spring 2021). With such an open and private setting, the water-related activities are endless; kayaking, fishing, crabbing, swimming, and boating are just some of the great things to enjoy while taking in the beautiful landscape!

Don't wait to book your trip in this exclusive Bayfront home, call us or book online and get your vacation started!
This property is pet friendly, but please let us know if you're planning to bring your fur babies along. Minimum Age Requirement of 25 and rents Saturday to Saturday during Main Seasons unless the calendar is already broken up or the requested time is approved by the homeowner.

Kitchen was the best stocked I’ve ever stayed at. Location great. Dianne’s cottage was a bit deceiving in that it was farther away than we anticipated. Check in was a bit goofy. Could have just emailed me the code. Not all of the info for getting in the extra cottages was handy. Had to call for the code to get into Diane’s cottage. Had to hunt for the key to the other cottage. The pool was not clean. Bought shock stuff to put in it but did not help. The real issue was bug bites, which we assumed were from the yard. By the second night I thought we were going to have to leave. I bought insect stuff to spray on the screens and put on pathway to water. Couldn’t go on the grass at all. My mother was still having issues 2 days after we left. I hope they were from the yard!

Great house
The only con for us. Pool is not heated. Water was too low to fish off the dock and parking a pontoon boat was tricky. Besides that this was a perfect house for the 9 of us. Located just far enough from the spring breakers but not to far to run to the store or dinner. VERY clean and loved the beds. Very quiet area.

The property is very nice! It was my first experience using VRBO, so I was a little nervous, my dad and husband love to fish so it was perfect! Other than maybe a heated pool I have no complaints & that’s not something I expected to have! THANK YOU for a place to make great family memories

Beautiful Hidden Gem
We absolutely love the house all the beautiful Spanish details. The kitchen is one of the best stocked kitchens I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying. Could use additional silverware. The grounds are amazing and we love the fairies and contributed to their garden. The pool was the perfect hangout for sun and relaxing. However the black flys were bad in Aug. Fishing off the pier was so much fun and playing cards and games in the screened porch. Wonderful property, hated to leave because it was so relaxing. Highly recommend.

My family had such a good time here. The house was perfect and the yard and privacy was a bonus. We pretty much lived in the pool. I would definitely recommend!

Large Families
The place is set up very nicely for large family gatherings. My wife & I booked this place for the 2 of us, our 4 adult kids with their spouses & our 7 grand kids ranging in age from 2 to 12 years old. There are 4 bedrooms & 2 full baths within the main house. There is a small cottage just outside the backdoor of the main house with a full bath & 2 queen beds in the cottage. There is a 2nd cottage out front of the main house that has a full bath, a small kitchen, a small living room with a pull out couch & a separate bedroom area. The pool was a great addition for keeping the grand kids entertained when there was down time during the week. The dock allowed fishing & setting crab traps throughout our week long stay. Although the kitchen appears to be stocked with everything you would need during your stay, it is very disorganized. You may have to open every cabinet to find something but odds are that it is in the kitchen somewhere. We are currently planning a cruise for next years family trip. The entire family enjoyed the place & we will probably return @ some point in the future.

This hardly ever happens, but the house and property were even better than we imagined! Plenty of room for everyone to have some personal space, and lots of gathering places for the whole gang come meal time. We spent every evening down by the dock. The only thing that could be improved is the wifi in the outbuildings and on the grounds. The weather was a little chilly for us to use the pool (mid April) but the younger brave ones did take a quick dip. Overall, we all agreed that we would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic holiday!
