Overall the house was great. Excellent location. Clean. Well stocked. During our stay we had a few issues with delayed maintenance that were a bit of a nuisance. Swollen floors made the front door and the laundry room doors difficult to open. The front door had a large gap at the bottom, so rain poured in soaking the floor on rainy days. We’d stay there again, but we hope that they do a little work before our next visit.

We liked the house, however there were a few things that need to be addressed. Front door wouldn’t stay shut, toilets hard to flush, laundry door handle was broken. It was wonderful to walk right out to beach. Inside of house was nice and comfortable.

Absolutely Awesome

We had the best family time we have ever had at the beach! We loved the house and the view of the ocean is spectacular! Our son in law enjoyed fishing everyday we had mullet fried for lunch everyday. I would love to show you our feast. We visit the beach every 4th of July and this was the best place we have stayed because of location

Enjoyable vacation

This the second time being at this property. It was great being on the beach again. We love the new deck (just needs more deck chairs)! The weather cooperated all but one morning. Everyone got all the beach time they wanted. I wasn't able to atch many fish but had fun. The blue crabs were thick and I should have got a net and caught some for a crab boil! we will probably visit this property again.

Spacious beachfront home

Perfect for our secluded Christmas vacation. Perfect open floor plan, comfortable seating and bedding. Minor issues with a door handle, toilet paper holder off the wall, outside porch light out and a little sand on the floor but it is beachfront and didn't make it any less enjoyable. Great deck chairs to view the unobstructed gulf view. Fort Morgan is still recovering from hurricane Sally and I expect will be more than ready for vacationers soon.

Fabulous crapulous was perfect for our stay.

The property was as advertised and just perfect for our family vacation. We loved the open floor plan and big windows facing the ocean as well as the wrap around deck so we could watch the dolphin, fishing boats and the waves rush to shore. My young grandkids ages 8, 6 and 2 had never been to the beach before and this home was very comfortable and met our needs perfectly. We definitely would choose to stay here again.
