Quiet & peaceful

House was fantastic. Great location in quiet community. We loved the layout of the home and it was clean and well appointed. Owners sent a digital guide for the home and the area that was very helpful. Communication was excellent from start to finish. We were able to park on the side of Cortez Rd and easily make our way to the beach.

Fort Morgan Getaway

We could not have asked for a more perfect place to be our home base when spending time with family this week. The house is beach chic and super comfortable. The owners were kind, considerate, and helpful when we ran into flight complications resulting from Hurricane Ian on the east coast. Many thanks, and we hope to have the opportunity to stay again!

One of the best vacations we've ever had

This property was amazing. We were steps away from the pool, which was nice and relaxing. We met a lot of nice families that were also vacationing. With teens that like to sleep in, I was able to walk to beach every morning and just enjoy the view. There is parking at the beach and it's not very crowded. The hosts were great in communication. The house was big enough that everyone had their own space and enough room that we could all play cards at the table and watch a movie together. Only downside, that ended up being a blessing is the internet is very spotty and we were unable to watch shows on the smart TV. Luckily they had a DVD player and movies. We did a day in Gulf Shores, did a dolphin tour, took the ferry to Dauphin Island and ate some delicious food. This is a great house, great host and great location for a family vacation. Looking forward to staying here again in the future.
