Great location with very short walk to access the beach. Plenty of room for family of 4. Open floor plan with large kitchen counter. No outdoor shower, but a hose available to rinse off. Nice deck with lounge chairs.

Thank you for sharing your experience and kind feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, space, and deck. We appreciate your note about the outdoor shower and will keep this in mind for future improvements.
It was ok, a few vital things missing, bathroom mats, oven mits etc that we never missed before. And we had ants!!

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are sorry for the missing items and the issue with ants, and we understand how frustrating that must have been. Your comments help us improve, and we will review our inventory and pest control procedures to prevent this in the future.
We have stayed at this location several times. It is always clean, and the price point is perfect. And it is a quick walk to the beach. Will be staying here again.
We had a great stay house was clean and had everything we needed. Location was perfect right across the street from ocean. Will be staying again. Fast and friendly contact with property manager.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was Perfect for our group. Great location and a lovely beach house. We look forward to renting it again in the future.

Amazing for a family vacation
My family stayed down here for a week in June of 2014 and we loved every minute of it! The house was beautiful, the closeness to the beach was great, and the area was absolutely amazing. The drive into town was quite a long one but worth it. I highly recommend this house to anyone and everyone who would want to visit fort morgan

Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
Yes, I agree. Fort Morgan, with its uncrowded, white sandy beaches, lack of commercialism, relaxed ambiance, lazy streets, and family friendly environment make the 20 minute drive into town worth it! The area possesses a charm unlike most other beach destinations! So glad to have you back again!
Hello Jeff,
Thank you for your review and feedback. We are glad to hear you had a great experience. We hope that you come back next year for another memorable vacation!

We look forward to going back next year

We loved this house. Very short walk to the beach. Drive to town wasn't bad. We managed to do everything we wanted to do. Dauphin Island was a neat place to visit. Planning on staying at Mim's Whim in the future.

Winter Getaway
We spent Jan & Feb at Mim's Whim and found it to be exactly as described. The house was comfortably furnished and the kitchen well stocked. The beach was not crowded and just a short walk across the street. The owners were great to deal with when problems arose. Would definately recommend this property.

Great Vacation!
We had a wonderful vacation at Mim's Whim! The house was beautifully decorated and created an environment of a true "home away from home" feeling. The neighborhood was friendly, safe and yet spacey enough to feel like you have your own piece of "tropical heaven". I plan to use every year!

The quaint neighborhood resembles a picture postcard with its colorful rows of houses. The sights and sounds of children rushing out to greet the ice cream man as he makes his way down the street each day is reminiscent of times gone by and adds to the charm of the area.

Mims Whim
My family and I just returned from our stay at Mins Whim. We had the best time, and this house is perfect! Amazing views, on the beach, lots of room, and the owners are amazing to work with! The house was even better in person; the pictures don't do it justice! So clean and very warm and inviting. We felt right at home! Would not hesitate to stay again and plan to do so!

Good times at Mim's Whim!
Perfect vacation at Mim's Whim. The porch is ideal...esp. if you have children. Good view of the beach and to listen to the waves. Beds are super comfortable! Recommend shopping at Wal-Mart and Publix and cooking in. Kitchen is stocked with pots, pans and dishes. Highly recommend!

Excellent Stay
Mims Whimm was excellent. The house was awesome and clean. Beds were very comfortable. The box of beach toys and chairs were a plus as we didn't have to pack this stuff! We left our canopy up all week on beach and didn't have to worry about anyone bothering it. The owners of the house were very nice and personally emailed us to check on our stay, both upon arrival and after we made it back home. When we go to gulf shores again we will be staying here!

Great Vacation Property
Mim's Whim was such a great vacation home. We have rented vacation homes for years and this property and owners were by far the most responsive and caring that we have ever dealt with in our history. The owners were very respectful and truly concerned about your stay. The communication throughout the process was excellent. The home itself was in great shape, and our family loved the cleanliness, and close proximity to the beach. The Ft. Morgan area is very quiet and relaxing without the worry of the heavy traffic found in the Gulf Shores area. We highly recommend this property for your vacation stay!

Mims whim was Wonderful!
This house was beautiful and in a perfect location. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 1 child. Short 2 minute walk across a small street to the gulf. You can see and hear the waves right from the living room. It was very hard to leave! The pictures of this home doesn't show it's true beauty. This was the first time we've rented a house and we were not disapointed.

This cozy place was perfect for our family of 8 to get away for a quarantine vacation. Place was clean and so close to the beach. Beach was not crowded so we felt safe. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the front deck with views of the ocean between the one row of houses across the street. It is a little drive to a store so wished we had packed dishwasher pods since they only give you two. The heated outdoor shower and swing under the house were nice added bonuses.

Great Escape
We loved the location, house had everything we needed. My only complaint is we had small children with us and there were rusty nails they found by outside showers, also as children will do they also found a full medicine vial in living room. Small things that can be easily fixed. The children were only 15 months old. The house was otherwise clean, kept up with and I would rent again. Nice place for a 2nd tier home.
