We’ve stayed in many houses in Fort Morgan. This house is by far our favorite. Not only is it on the beach but it is well appointed with everything you need for cooking, grilling and the beach. We were able to fly without needing to go to the store for anything but food. We will be back.

Great beach house!

This house was a great fit for our extended family of 8. We really loved being right on the beach. The private boardwalk, outdoor shower and deck made it easy for all to enjoy the beach. The house is very nicely decorated and comfortable. The upstairs washer and dryer made laundry easy. The neighborhood pools were both very nice as well. The owner checked on us during our stay, which was very nice. This is our first trip to the Gulf Shores area and I would definitely recommend the Fort Morgan area. The beach is deep, clean and not crowded.

Exceptional! Little packing required!

We had THE MOST relaxing beach trip EVER! The accommodations just go on and on! There were sand toys for the kids, lots of nice beach chairs, umbrellas AND beach towels! This meant everything to us because we flew to get there and had to pack lightly! We packed our clothes and stocked up on groceries when we arrived!! The kitchen and bathrooms had everything you need and more!! The beds were extra comfy! The owners are super sweet and were very responsive to any questions we had. The location couldn’t have been more perfect! The community pools were lovely! It just felt like home on the beach!

Family time

The property is very nice and roomy, with a well equipped kitchen and plenty of beach chairs. I think the property photo is misleading because it implies it is one property having the full width porches when in reality it is a duplex. Otherwise listing is accurate. The boardwalk is becoming dangerous in several places and needs maintenance.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 April 2020
Thank you for choosing our property. We hope you enjoyed your stay! We apologize about the confusion regarding the rental. While we did state that the west side of the home was for rent, we have made changes to the listing that we hope will clarify. We appreciate you alerting us that the boardwalk may be in need of repair. We are constantly evaluating the porch and boardwalk for safety. As you may have noticed, many boards were replaced to prepare for the start of the summer season. Now that the summer is coming to a close we will definitely reevaluate the property and make any necessary repairs. Our goal is to provide a very comfortable and safe stay for your fun filled vacation. We hope that you will stay with us again!

Needs Deep Cleaning

Arrives to find home in need of deep cleaning, dirty air vents, mold/mildew on shower curtain, tacks sticking up through carpet which child's foot was cut. Owner was quick to respond ,which I declined a visit from maintenance personnel due to the fact that it would take more than a visit to remedy the situation and we didn't want our vacation interrupted.

Beverly, I’m sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. I tried contacting you Saturday evening as your family checked in to my home. I had to leave you a message asking if everything with the home is okay and letting you know if you needed anything to please don’t hesitate to contact me. You sent me an email about midweek and I immediately sent our cleaning person to address all of your concerns. He arrived to find no one there and we started trying to contact you for him to return. You declined our offer. Yours is the first bad review that I have ever received in many years of renting my home. We take pride in making our home a special place for the families that choose to stay with us. Prior to this rental season we refinished the entire exterior of the home, painted most of the interior and replaced all of the carpet. It will be our continued effort to provide the highest quality environmental all of our guests that choose to stay in our home. Regards, Bob

This home has given us lasting memories and it is our hope that you will experience the same and more.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the beautiful white sandy beaches and natural habitat.

What makes this property unique

Some of the activities we enjoy are swimming, fishing, para-sailing, biking, and tennis. Most of all, we enjoy getting away and having uninterrupted family time and relaxation.
