We throughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking again. The house was well maintained and clean, with the cutest floor plan. Dollar General is only a mile away, with the closest public beach areas about 7-10 miles each way. Plenty of food choices close by if you don’t want to stay in and cook. Highly recommend.

Sister trip absolutely amazing. Great home. The bunk bed room is very small it’s as small as a closet. Should have been in the description. Kitchen great the other bedrooms were great. Not sure if the TVs worked because we didn’t watch any. The dock is very shaky please be careful walking on it. When ordering DoorDash and groceries make sure you put the letter because the house is next door is the same house number but A. Only thing is I would inspect after the cleaning company cleans. Refrigerator was dirty, microwave had food on the outside of it. Also, some air fresheners needed to used.

Loved the property, it was clean and quiet, far enough away from the hustle and bustle tourist area yet close enough to drive to what we wanted! My husband loved fishing off the pier early in the morning and late in the evening. It was very well stocked with anything you can need or want. The only thing that was somewhat "negative" was the bedroom with the bunk beds, it is only big enough for that, there is no nightstand or closet and hardly any room to move in there. Can be a negative b/c there was no room for any luggage to even be in there. Not a big deal if you have littles but could be if you have teenagers, especially girls, who like to pack their room to bring with them! All in all we highly recommend this place with a great host, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed our stay. Location was great! Visited Fort Morgan, the beaches, rode the ferry, & shopped all over. The house was right on the bay which was nice to be able to see all the wildlife.

Bay view, you can watch dolphins, fish, and crabs all day.
Beach down the road was nice. Very relaxed and secluded. Not crowded as the gulf shore beaches.

My son and I had a great stay. We fished the whole trip and this was in a perfect location for that. We were right down the road from Fort Morgan Beach and about 20min from the Gulf State Pier. There’s a nice Market Dollar General about 3 minutes from this property that was very convenient for food, ice, snacks, etc.
