Loved our stay at this house. It was very clean. Our hostess was very accommodating, friendly, helpful, and responsive. It was a lovely location. I loved our private pool. The beach was beautiful. And I love that it is not so crowded. Our family had a wonderful time.
6 adults and 3 children 10 and under. Private pool which the grandkids loved! Only issue was there was no parking at the beach for vehicles-just golf carts. Plenty of space for all!
The house was very clean, beds and bedding were comfortable. Kitchen was nicely stocked with cookware and utensils. The location was perfect. We loved the quiet neighborhood and private beach. We all had a blast in the pool. You should definitely rent the golf cart. While it is technically within walking distance, the golf cart is very handy when hot, sweaty and tired after a day at the beach lugging all your bags. We would stay here again!
All was good except the downstairs bedroom at the front of the house there was something on the sheets that was biting my son and his wife but stopped once they washed them before the second night
I will start by saying the communication with Elisa was incredible. What a great host! The house is beautiful and spacious. The pool was just the right size and refreshing. We were very close to the ocean. You can see the ocean from the upper balcony which we spent time having coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening. My family and I plan on returning. Also, my oldest grandson enjoyed the crows nest. It was a private getaway for him. Thank you Elisa for sharing your wonderful home with us!
Second time we have stayed at this property, and it was just as nice as we remembered. Great communication with the host. The only issue we had was with the coffee maker, and it was fixed immediately. We will be back, and would highly recommend. We have a family of 5, and 2 dogs, and we had more than enough room. Thanks for another great family vacation in Fort Morgan!
If you’re going to be rained in by a hurricane for most of your vacation, this house is a good one to stay in. All kidding aside, the house was clean and beautiful. The pool was nice and I didn’t find the walk to the beach to be too daunting. Would stay there again.
We had an awesome time at the beach with friends staying here! So much space on all floors and great location to the beach with just a little bit of a neighborhood walk to get to the access point. Really enjoyed how private the beach was and quiet the neighborhood was as well. Highly recommend and would love to stay again!
Great location and beautiful property! Plenty of room and well appointed. Great communication with owner Elisa and local property manager Lisa who was readily available for anything. The pool was a perfect perk and of course we love all the little local spots Fort Morgan has to offer! Thanks for a great Labor Day week!
This is a great house with everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway from New Orleans. Really close to the beach and two big balconies to relax on after a day at the beach. We had a wonderful couple days here.
Couldn't have asked for a better place. A great way to unwind for a week!

Super Location!
Best neighborhood to stay in Ft Morgan!!! House is within walking distance to beacb access, however a cart rental makes it more bearable!!
We had a few minor hiccups upon arrival, but quick communication with owner/property manager corrected those.
This is a great vacation rental with modern furnishings! Loved everything about the home and we look forward to renting again. Enjoyed having morning coffee and reading on the decks.
Another great week at Big Blue the whole family had a blast the beach the pool the on site manager Lisa was fantastic
Big Blue check all the boxes
From the little kids to the sixty year old kid we all enjoyed our stay and will be back next year
Had a great holiday week with the family! The house was spacious and the pool for the kiddos was a huge plus! The recommendation for the golf cart was greatly appreciated, it made traveling back and forth to and from the beach a breeze since I always tend it overpack! Will definitely be back! ❤️
This was our second time renting this property. Once again it exceeded our vacation expectations. The property is always clean and the check in is a breeze. We can’t wait for round three with this property on our next beach getaway. You can’t go wrong with this rental.
