Breathtaking

We stayed with a group of 18. Everything was wonderful. The house location is perfect, the kitchen is fully stocked. The views from the top deck are breathtaking. The elevator was a huge plus for our handicap daughter and they even had a bath chair in the master bathroom. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

October Beach

We love going to the beach in October. This house was perfect for us. It’s right on the beach and is well equipped. It even has an elevator which is a must for our family. We loved staying there. As a point of caution the outside stairs and deck may need to be replaced soon; however, that did not detract from the overall experience at this beautiful home. We loved our time there and would stay there again.

October at Ft Morgan

This location was terrific. We had 12 adults and 3 kids and there was room for everyone. There were jelly fish on the beach one day, and it was great to have a pool available to use. We were a little disappointed with a few factors, but recognize it's the end of season and time for repairs before 2024. If booking for 2024, I would recommend ensuring the deck and outdoor stairs have been replaced, all light fixtures are working, and the linens match the size of the beds. We were not comfortable in king sized beds with queen sized linen that did not match the VRBO property pictures. We also had 4 people working from the home and highly recommend you bring your own hot spots. The house wifi was extremely weak. With those improvements in mind, we would recommend this property!

As advertised

We had a great time. We were not able to eat in Gulf Shores with such young children, as the restaurants were always requiring hour to two hour waits which we couldn’t do with your children. However Fort Morgan itself had plenty of options, and even a fine dining option at Jesse’s on the Bay. Overall, fantastic trip without the hustle and bustle of Fort Morgan. There is a resort behind the house so the beach could get crowded if you don’t get out there early. I came here as a kid (I’m 40 now), and I haven’t been back since 2002. I have NEVER seen this much wildlife here. We saw a sea turtle swimming in the tide, dolphins, sharks, and tons of fish. Bring your rod.

Great family vacation

The location was perfect! Our family stayed with extended family coming through different days. The elevator was incredibly helpful for my dad, who has mobility issues. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms and kitchen were clean. The neighbors next door were a little loud but tolerable. The decks will need to be redone soon, as they are looking very worn in. Overall, we had a great time!

Beach getaway with person with disabilities

The house was beautiful and location was amazing! Traveling with a person with limited mobility so the elevator and grab bars were very helpful! We had a wonderful vacation and barely left the home. The rental owners communicated above and beyond and helped us find a beach wheelchair rental company and even gave us advice about a mechanic when someone in the group had car trouble. You won’t be sorry with this rental!

Perfect family vacation spot

Lots of rooms for everyone, not crowded. Easy, close walk to the beach. And perfect short walk to the pool. Each bedroom had a bathroom, so no fighting over that. Great with multiple kids of all ages. The girls had a sleepover all week long in their room with the bunk beds. Great set up for comfortable, relaxing home & stay. Also has an elevator, makes it easy to get all your belongings to what ever floor you need. Enjoy sitting on the decks, with plenty of chairs for everyone, & watch the dolphins go by.
