Get to the Jig!

This is a beautiful beach house inside and out! Nice short walk to the beach with available beach cart and beach accessories. Property is well maintained and squeaky clean. The charcoal grill under a covered area is definitely a plus as is the outdoor shower. I can’t say enough good things really. We had a great vacation and will be returning next year!

Wonderful!

Awesome location. I was worried about the walk to the beach: DO NOT worry, it's a very easy and short walk, even for our 5 year old. The beach cart at the house is amazing - game changer for hauling our stuff to the beach. My kids also loved the outdoor shower.

Great Stay

This is the best property we've stayed in over the years of visiting Fort Morgan. It was clean and easy to maintain. The full concrete pad under the house made it perfect for our grandson's to play and ride scooters. The walk to the beach is only a minute or two away with hardly any traffic in the neighborhood. The beach buggy makes lugging your stuff so much easier too. Will likely be back in the future.

Lovely Beach House

This house is lovely. It is clean and comfortable. With 6 adults and a 2 year old and it was the perfect size. A short walk to the beach was made even easier with the beach wagon provided by the owners. It is a very quiet area and not too populated. There are a couple of good seafood restaurants near by and a convenience store.

Fantastic

Great location. Easy 8 hour drive from the Houston area. The house had everything we needed and if felt warm and inviting. Kaleb was easy to message and answer questions. The nearest full service grocery store is 16 miles away but it was such a beautiful and relaxing drive that it was not an issue. We had a great time and look forward to returning.

Lovely

We stayed with our family of 5, with small children. The beach is a short walk, even my 2 year old had no problem walking it. The giant beach cart fit everything we could possibly need and more. The closet under the house had lots of extra beach stuff. Boogie boards, umbrella, a couple of beach chairs, etc. There were also beach towels in the laundry room. Our hosts were very responsive. We made so many memories at jig-a-de-jig and would love to stay here again in the future.

Beach stay

Property manager was extremely responsive. We experienced a power outage in the area. He was easy to get in touch with to make sure it had been reported. The property is well kept and so close to the beach. This was my first stay in renting a house so I didn’t realize you had to supply some daily usage stuff like toilet paper, trash bags, etc. the outdoor shower was great and let you rinse all the sand before going in doors. There was always a shady place to be outside either on the deck or under the house.

A Perfect Retreat for Reflection and Celebration

Scott and I recently retired, and this beach trip was the perfect way to celebrate this new chapter in our lives. This sweet beach cottage was everything we hoped for—comfortable, cozy, and steps away from one of the best shelling beaches in the Gulf Shores/Fort Morgan area. We felt right at home here. The neighbors were warm and welcoming, adding a lovely touch to our stay. The beach itself was peaceful and quiet, perfect for long walks and collecting shells—we even toted home a bucket full of treasures! On the two colder days, we stayed indoors, enjoying card games, making homemade soup, and simply spending time together. When the weather warmed up, we soaked up the sun, read on the beach with our toes in the sand, and waded through the surf. This trip gave us the uninterrupted time we needed to reflect on all we’ve accomplished and celebrate our new adventures ahead. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories. We’d highly recommend this cottage for anyone seeking a peaceful, rejuvenating getaway.

Perfect

This property was perfect for our family! The walk to the beach was super short and the beach cart provided by the property was EXCELLENT! It had my husband and I trying to figure out how we could build one that we could put together/take apart to never have a beach vacation without one just like it. We go to this area every summer, and the two most important things on our checklist are distance from the beach and cleanliness. This house was great for both. There was plenty of space and the property owner was very responsive to questions. The only issue we had was the drain in the 2nd bathroom, but unfortunately some renters don’t take the post-beach shower very seriously, I don’t blame the property for this but instead the previous renters. The property was also very close to the marina which was great for meeting up with the captain for the deep sea fishing trip we went on. We have no desire to be in the hustle and bustle of Gulf Shores, but instead prefer the QUIET and less crowded beaches.
