Nice place to stay!

Overall it was a nice place to stay. It could have been cleaned a bit better (dirty towel still hanging from the door, hair in the shower). Good communication with Mike. Quickly got a repair done while we were there (broken railing). Nice complex, with other places available for those that don't fit/want to stay in the same house.

Great Location

Located on the beach and close to outdoor amenities. Plenty of room for the family. Communication with owner is very timely. Not all of the tvs were set up to work. We were there the coldest week in February and did not have access to indoor amenities so had to rent a studio to get the indoor amenities.

Best house in Ft Morgan

Great house, plenty of room for our party of 7 adults and 3 little kiddos (under 2). Loved having the second fridge for beverages, plus a wine fridge! Right on the beach, next to the boardwalk and very close to a community pool. Would definitely rent here in the future.

Fantastic vacation spot!

Such a great location!! Loved the view, loved the easy beach access, loved the pool, it was so fun! We go to the gulf shores every two years as a family vacation, and Ft. Morgan is awesome, to be away from the crowds and a beach that is not packed. We will definitely be returning!

Absolutely beautiful location right on the beach. House was huge and had plenty of room for our group of 15! Have been going on spring break on the Gulf Coast for 10 years and this was the best place we have ever stayed in!

Great Family Time

I liked this house from the first time I saw it. We were going to have mostly adults and the sleeping worked out fine. Also, everyone was coming from different directions meaning several cars. I thought 5 but it turned out to be 6. I sent Mike a request on parking the number of cars expected. He was fast to respond that yes it could handle 5 and that the resort had extra parking if needed. As it turned out, it handled 6. The people at the guard house were very friendly and also informed us of the extra parking if needed. All driving, check-in and check-out directions were given in a timely manner and accurate. Everything went without a hitch. Each time I contacted Mike I got a very timely response.The house was great!! Beautiful view of the beach with easy access. The master bedroom is something else. On first seeing, my wife thought it was a second living room. Huge. We loved the location. Far enough out towards Fort Morgan to be a quieter area but still convenient to the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area.The closest thing to a negative that I have is that it truly has only the basics supplied. This isn't a complaint. It is as advertised as all VRBO houses advertise this. There are plenty of cooking utensils/pots and pans. One set of silverware. If you don't want to have to wash silverware each meal take some plastic ware and paper plates. No seasonings, laundry or dish detergent. As advertised. We usually wait to get this stuff on arrival as some houses do have some items.

Great Location

Easy access to a non crowded beach. Host is quickly responsive to any questions. My only recommendations would be to organize the closet with the beach gear. The gear ( chairs, umbrellas, canopies) are all broken or of poor quality. I would definitely stay again.

Best Vacation Rental!!

Our family of 13 had the best time at Kat's Meow! The location and house were perfect!! We loved everything about this place! The pool and boardwalk to the beach were so close and the house had everything you need for enjoying the beach! The views from the two balconies were amazing! I can't say enough good things about our stay. No one in our group had one complaint and it is definitely our favorite place we have ever stayed. We hope to have the opportunity to stay again!! Thanks to Mike and Kat for the amazing stay! We loved it!!

About the host

Hosted by Mike

Host profile image
Mike and Kathryn (Kat) welcome you to our beach home.

Why they chose this property

We found the people and beaches of Gulf Shores to be hidden gems. The location offers solitude or fun and games at your whim.

What makes this property unique

The views from the balconies are outstanding. There is abundant wildlife and even nesting sea turtles in season. Look for our pal, the big Blue Heron. He likes to perch on the balconies. The dolphins can be seen most days playing in the surf. There is nothing better than sitting on the deck with a cool drink watching the sun slip into the ocean.
