Great place to stay!

This property was excellent as was property management! It’s a relatively short walk down to the beach if you take the little trail right of the back deck. House was clean, well stocked, and a quiet neighborhood.

Our family really enjoyed our time in Fort Morgan. The house was beautifully decorated. Close to the beach. Pathway to the beach was a bit overgrown. Overall great time.

Adorable House

The house had the perfect layout inside. The decorations were amazing. The kitchen was well stocked with everything that we needed to cook. The walk to the beach was less than 5 minutes but the burrs were brutal. A weed eater would do the job. Overall we had a great time and would rent this house again.

It was very nice. Everything met out expectations.

This was our first VRBO experience. We were pleased. The house had no major issues. We found checking in and out easy and pleasant. We will likely do it again.

Great place

Great family rental. The appliances and stocked pots/pans and kitchen utensils were great. The house is slightly dated but very well decorated. The A/C unit would work at times but shut off before reaching target temperature. However, the wonderful Fall weather helped us to not rely on the A/C too much. The walk to the beach took us around 5 minutes (that’s with young kids). We had a great time!

First family vacation!

We arrived around 10:30 pm so we had a late check in but it was very easy. Drive to the office, pick up a packet outside the door, go to the house. The keys were a bit agravating. They gave me two keys one for front door and one for back door but they aren’t marked to indicate which and the front door (door facing beach) has a deadbolt which neither key worked for. That was frustrating. The listing also is not pet friendly but we found that previous tenants must have not cared about that because there was pieces of dog food in the living room and dog hair through the house. We didn’t really care about any of that we were just thankful to be on vacation and be staying in such a beautiful house. The pictures really don’t do it justice. Wish it was beach front or maybe even 2nd row because the sharp grass makes the walk to the beach somewhat unpleasant but overall this trip was a blast. The property was great, check in and check out was easy. 10/10 would reccomend.

Beach getaway

The house was just as described. We had plenty of room for our group of seven. The walk to the beach wasn’t to bad (about 5-10mins) we realized there was a shorter access point to the right our last day there. Management was very polite and easy to get in touch with. The beaches weren’t crowded at all. We would stay here again.

Nice house

Great house but travel plans (by airlines) made us come in at 10pm at night which was a waste of the first paid day there. Having a discounted rate for people that come in late would be nice, thanks!

Perfect beach week

The house was just like the pictures! Great price for the quality of the house and beach. Plenty of room for 6 people. The walk to the beach was short and once on the beach it was almost like having our own private beach! Our last day there we got to see baby sea turtle hatch and make their way to the ocean with the help of Share the Beach volunteers! Couldn’t have been a better week!

Needed Break from COVID Isolation

This house was perfect size and price point for our group. We really enjoyed the deck and the short walk to the beach. The girls were well pleased with the size of the kitchen and its appointments. We would definitely recommend and look forward to coming again ourselves.

Cute place, very comfortable

My mom, daughter (14), friend and her daughter (12) stayed for a week at Pelican's Rest. The decor is so lovely, furniture and beds very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. The interior was perfect! The only minor drawbacks were that the grill was so rusty it was almost rotted through (but an easy fix for the owner) and there is only one TV - there should be at least one other TV in a 3 bedroom. We used to have a Gulf Shores rental that had one bedroom and two TVs. Sometimes kids want a different movie at night than the grownups. The walk to the beach was easy. There was a problem with the septic after a torrential rain that the property management kept us updated on and it was fixed within the day! Other houses nearby had similar issues, just one of the things that happen with storms at the beach. Overall we loved the house and had a great stay!!
