This beach house was just perfect for us! It was the ideal size for a couple, and we loved that it was dog friendly. The outdoor shower and hose was super convenient. Being so close to the beach and hearing the waves at all times from the deck really made the trip. Would recommend! Stay here for a cozy trip to Fort Morgan!

We absolutely loved this rental! It was very clean and inviting. The outdoor shower was amazing, on top of the huge deck to watch the sunrises and sunsets. The kitchen was fully stocked which made cooking an easy process. The host was super nice and communicative. We even stayed an additional day because we loved it so much!
