Wonderful stay

Sugar Shack is beautiful and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Karen was quick to respond and very helpful during the booking and check in process. Clean and spacious enough for our 8. Although not right on the beach it is just a short walk. The pool is right by the house. The neighbor was nice and quiet.

We truly had the best time. It’s a beautiful property! It’s a short walk to the beach, and having pool access was also a plus! Check in and out we’re easy, and the home owner was easy to get in touch with, and never made us feel like an inconvenience. We will stay again!

Home away from home for large family

Part of our family stayed at Sugar Shack while the others stayed next door. Sugar shack was equipped with so many necessities- booster seat, baby gate, blender, etc. You really can’t beat the pool and beach access for a large group. Comfortable couches and beds. We deducted one star for cleanliness as the tub was dirty. We were asking to check in early so maybe the cleaning staff was hurrying trying to accommodate us. Regardless, we’ll be back!

Great place to stay if you love the beach!

Family had a blast on the beach and in the pool. Beds were comfortable and clean along with everything else in the house. More towels would have been nice as we had to wash them everyday and remember to bring a beach towel. It was a fun stay and will book again for a future beach vacation.

Family vacation

Our family had 2 neighboring houses owned by the same people. Our houses shared a pool and was just a short walk to the beach. Cleaning staff was super helpful and so nice. We couldn't go through just the owners so a lot of communication leading up to vacation was via VRBO. For our family of 12 it worked out nicely.

This is our second time staying at the Sugar Shack and just like before everything was perfect. Easy Beach access, Clean and well appointed property and Karen is a dream to work with. Even added ESPN to the TVs so we could watch Texas A&M in the College World Series. Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

Such a terrible experience…when you have to leave

Yes I’m kidding, nothing terrible about it. Everything about the house was perfect, clean, correctly advertised, etcetera. Karen is absolutely awesome and great to talk to when going over the house. I accidentally met her two sisters and I was equally impressed with them. I really like the area because it’s not such a tourist trap like orange beach, yet if you want that it is close by. You can’t get closer to the beach. The constant breeze from the gulf was amazing and my family really enjoyed the stay here. I will always be looking to book each year from now on going forward. Karen is five star all the way. The house has everything you could possibly need. Once you get to know Fort Morgan you will realize you do not have to drive to Gulf Shores or Orange beach for anything. Look around you. See you next year

The perfect getaway!

We had such a wonderful stay, and hope to make this place our “go-to” beach house every year! The property is clean and had everything we needed. The beach is much less crowded than Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area, but yet only about 20 minutes from restaurants, tourist attractions, major grocery stores, etc. if you want to go into town. Highly recommend this place!
