Tacky Jacks and Sassy Bass right down the street. Beautiful views. The house was so clean, the cleanest we’ve ever stayed in. We will most definitely stay here again!

This was a wonderful experience staying at this residence! I did not know that the 4th bedroom was downstairs and you had to walk outside to gain access. However it was perfectly fine and we enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful home in a great location

We loved our stay. The house was so nice and had everything we needed. The owners/property manager were very responsive. Love the location as its away from all the business but not too far away. Beach wasn’t overcrowded. We would definitely stay again

Great Beach Rental

My family and I stayed in this home for 4 nights and we all had the best time. It was a short walk to the beach and we were pleasantly surprised to find that the beach was not crowded at all. The house was roomy and clean. Kitchen was stocked well with everything we needed for cooking. Owners were quick to respond and very accommodating. We were happy with our stay and would definitely book again.

Nice house on a secluded street

Wow, what a nice surprise this house was! It looked older on the outside, but inside looked completely redone. Every bedroom had a large bed, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The living room and kitchen were spacious. The beach was a short 400 yard walk away and it was not crowded in this part of Fort Morgan. The only complaint the kids had was that the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms do not have TVs. I told them to unplug for a while and relax or use the TV in the great room. I think the deck can use a little TLC but other than that this place was great and we would stay there again.
