While the beach view is 100% obstructed due to the newer constructed homes to the south, we still thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Fort Morgan is a very special place - a great beach, and quieter than the hussle bussle of Gulf Shores, with plenty of good food options.

This was a great house for my family of 5! Very comfortable beds for all. Farmhouse table was great for celebrating a birthday! The walk to the beach was super quick and the view from the back deck was really great. Good selection of beach equipment. The communication with Donny was quick and effective. We would definitely stay here again.

What an incredible stay! Home had every accommodation needed for our family's extended stay. Comfortable, clean, and cozy. Location is appreciated, not just steps from the sand, but also away from the hustle and bustle. Friendly hosts with clear communication and easy booking and check out procedures. Absolutely perfect for what we were looking for over the holidays.

Thank you for choosing the Summer Salt beach house! So sorry about the washing machine failure. The washing machine (less than 1 year old) had a malfunction, and it took several days, and multiple visits for the local appliance company to get the part in and get it fixed. We understand and share your frustration. Kay and Donny

Really enjoyed staying here. Just wished the carport area was paved so as to not track as much sand in.

Thank you for staying with us and we are glad you liked the house! You all took good care of it and please come back when you can. Thanks for the good feedback. The new blue house next door (to the south), and the recent storms have blown sand under the house and covered the shower floor and much of the under-house deck. This weekend, we are going down with a crew to do landscaping and sand removal that will restore the sand free living area under the house.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this house when we first saw it. It is just steps away from a beautiful spacious beach. The views from the west deck are incredible and Bernard Court West is a great neighborhood community and a fun place to stay. The neighborhood is great and the beaches are among the most beautiful in the world.

With Tacky Jacks, the Fort Morgan Marina, Fort Morgan, the Dauphin Island Ferry and Mobile Bay just minutes away, this is one of the great vacation get-aways you could ask for!

What makes this property unique

Wonderful views and steps to the beach. Great Neighborhood, complete renovation and refurnishing of the house in 2013. Very large and spacious great room and kitchen combo. Island Living at it's finest!
