Labor Day Vacay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was just as described and accommodated 7 adults perfectly. Beach access was right across the street and we had a nice view of the beach. We will definitely be back next year!

As advertised -- everything we needed and nice location.

In the past, we have occasionally been disappointed with the accuracy of descriptions. This trip was the exception. The property was "as advertised" - clean, beautifully decorated, and close to the beach. It had everything we needed to relax, and the hosts provided all the information we needed in advance. The chairs and beach gear were a plus. It was nice not having to pack everything to bring with us.

We had a wonderful time in Ft Morgan beauitful and peaceful and you are a few miles away to be able to do whatever you want in town eat, shop and walk. The house was everything we needed beds were comfortable had enough room in kitchen to cook. The beach was great and we saw the sunset on the beach it was a great week.

Nice home and great view.

All in a great stay. Sadly it appeared previous renters hadn't respected the property or the renters after them (us), but owners were prompt in responding to issues. A nice home with a great view, and we loved being able to bring our dog on vacation with us!

Fabulous home in a great spot!

Spacious home with a fabulous view of the gulf. We had perfect weather, but the upside is that if you did not, you always have the view! Best stocked beach gear in any stay that I have had. The only “wish” would be enclosed outdoor shower, but seriously great place and Fran was always available for our questions.

Great Stay

Easy experience. The property was a little walk but you are able to cut through the vacant area in front making it incredibly easy and the view was fantastic thanks to that lot. Kitchen was stocked great, plenty of space, comfy furniture. Wifi is a definitely on the slow side, but it’s a beach house and you should want to relax and not expect amazing speeds, just wanted to share for those thinking for WFB :) (work from beach). Thanks for the great stay!

GREAT!!!

Perfect for a family vacation! The house was wonderful with plenty of room. The 3 baths and two large balconies were a big plus! Beautifully decorated, nice furniture and large tv in all rooms. You could view the ocean from the balcony. The neighborhood was quite and peaceful, and everyone around us were very friendly. We walked dog every night and felt comfortable doing so. Short easy walk to the beach. Easy check in and out. Everything was perfect to me, and I would love to come back.

Wonderful View

We enjoyed our stay very much. The view was wonderful from the porch, the walk to the beach was easy, and the house and furniture were comfortable. We enjoyed watching the sunset and sunrise from the back porch, and also found it a nice place to catch some rays. We always love Ft Morgan. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Excellent House Ideal Location Dont Count on Elevator

Excellent location & house. Would rent again. A few things to consider: 1-Elevator not operational. Owner communicated prior to trip that it was broken with no idea when it would be repaired as a part was on order. 2-Cable and internet down. Owner provided account numbers so I could contact companies; after 20 minutes of pushing menu buttons I gave up. 3- Road was underwater due to heavy rains; with an SUV no problem but if we had a sedan it would have been. This could have been the cause of item 2. We loved the house and location!
