Welcome to Southern Tides at The Rookery! The Rookery is a peaceful, low-density community situated next to the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge. It's a highly sought-after destination for families, offering an array of excellent amenities, including two pools, a covered gazebo, hot tub, tennis courts, a community grilling area with picnic tables, and easy access to world-class golf courses. This location combines affordability, spaciousness, and a wide range of amenities, making it a fantastic choice for your stay. You'll have the opportunity to enjoy tranquility while remaining close enough to the Gulf Shores attractions and restaurants.

This spacious three-bedroom, two-bath condo is ideal for families and friends. The master bedroom features a Queen-size bed, a private bathroom, and a TV. Both guest bedrooms are equipped with Queen-size beds, with one of them also featuring a futon. Additionally, there are three Queen-sized futons in the living room, providing sleeping space for up to 12 people in total.

Your private screened porch is perfect for relaxation, allowing you to enjoy the gentle breeze while rocking or swinging. The condo also boasts charming old-fashioned pine floors, a feature that many people appreciate about Rookery condos. The beach is just a short walk or car ride away, with the Rookery being located 0.4 miles from the beautiful white sand beaches of the Fort Morgan peninsula.

The Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge offers several easy trails through sawgrass marsh and slash pine forests, providing opportunities to spot 500 different animal and bird species. The Fort Morgan Peninsula lies in the bird and butterfly migration route. During early spring and late fall, the entire peninsula comes to life with birds and butterflies, including Monarchs and Gulf Fritillaries. In addition to the typical gulls and sandpipers, you may encounter ospreys, great blue herons, and various hawk species, such as sharp-shinned and Cooper's hawks. Be sure to bring your camera to capture a piece of paradise to take home with you. Historic Fort Morgan is only 4.5 miles from the cottage, and you can catch the car ferry to Dauphin Island, where you'll find more walking trails and the Dauphin Island Sea Lab.
