We had the best stay! The view from the house was spectacular, the walk to the waters edge was just a few steps, and we got lucky and had basically the whole beach to ourselves for the week! Our kids ran wild and loved every minute of it!

Quiet/Relaxing House

We had a large family gathering for the holiday, and the Kessler house was perfect! We loved both the covered and exposed decks as well as quick access to the beach. With the Sassy Bass Market and Grill within walking distance, we did not feel that we were missing anything. Quiet and relaxing for all - ages 1 to 74!

Absolutely Perfect!!

This house was exactly as advertised. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything we needed! The location on the beach was great! The beds were very comfortable. It has a nice big deck (wear shoes to avoid splinters) with a perfect view of the gulf. We felt like we had a private beach! It is far enough away from Gulf Shores to feel you are away from the crowd, but not too far from popular restaurants. We will definitely consider staying here again!

Ladies' Retreat

We stayed here for a ladies retreat and also rebted the house next door. This house was a perfect place to put the older ladies so they could have some peace and quiet. I also stayed in this house. It was very clean and I loved the deck. I opened the door and listened to the waves as I got dressed. So relaxing and quaint. Would definitely recommend.

Christmas at the beach.

The property was great. It is just a long way from town. I was always accustomed to having the lock code sent to me by email. This time I had to rush to get to rental office to get info before they closed. We were entertained by the Blue Angels one day. That was very exciting.

Fantastic location!

Fort Morgan is the place to be if you want a quiet and less crowded beach vacation. Perfect getaway for couples and adult groups. Overall the house is nice and very roomy. But it needs a thorough cleaning and some repairs. Cookware needs to be replaced and some of the bedding and living room pillows were dirty and stained. Be aware that there are NO “extras” provided. No dish soap, dishwasher detergent, trash bags, paper towels, etc. At this price point, I think a few of these items would be appropriate and much appreciated by guests. But, the location and proximity to the beach can’t be beat

Good not great

The distance from the beach was unbeatable. The house was okay but lacking some basics. You are only provided two towels per room which is not the biggest deal but I would expect more for a long stay. The deck furniture needs updated and you cannot walk on the deck without shoes or you will get a splinter. Every person staying at the house got a splinter within the first two days because the deck needs replaced. Also, when we arrived at our arrival time we were rudely greeted by the cleaning service letting us know it would be another hour before she was done. Although the agency had gave us our code to get in the house. We did very much enjoy our stay and in general the house was great. Some minor improvements and updates on the deck and I would have given 5 stars.

Hi Ashlee, Thanks for taking the time to review Kessler House. I would like to apologize for the delay in the cleaning. We do try our best to have all of the houses cleaned and ready for check in at 3 however sometimes things do happen and the cleaning crews run behind. I will also pass this info along to maintenance about the deck and deck furniture so we can get that addressed. We are happy to hear you guys enjoyed your stay even with the issues you mentioned. We hope to welcome you guys again soon. Reed Real Estate- gulfrentals

Loved the quiet.

House was as listed. Beds comfortable. AC worked very well (which is not always the case in rental units). Everything you could need for cooking was provided. Plenty of chairs on deck. Shade or sun available on deck. We brought our own large fan so were comfortable sitting outside in shade. Finding the property was not easy. Not marked clearly. So many Reed Real Estate signs stuck everywhere you couldn’t see anything else! Ice machine didn’t work. A boardwalk over dunes would have been nice but not too much of an issue. Only having one towel per person was a little cheap. Overall, we were happy with our stay at Kessler House and would stay there again.

Perfect location

Great location & plenty of privacy. The walk to the beach is a bit of a hike but the house does sit on the beach. Great size home. Plenty of parking & room. Dishwasher unable to be used while there & b/c of warranty issues could not get fixed during visit which was a little inconvenient. Mattresses could use replacing. Air ducts and returns need cleaning. Overall a super place to stay. Had a blast.

Fun in the Sun

Overall the property location was fantastic! The amenities could have been slightly more robust for the price point (for instance the skillets and linens were fairly worn and no paper towels were provided). The deck is a little worn, one of our party got a splinter and a few nails are popped up. There were lots of kitchen appliances and plates/ mugs etc. A few small updates would go a long way, but overall we loved our stay! Someone in our party had to work remotely and the desk in the upstairs bedroom was a lifesaver! Would recommend to anybody looking to get away.

Great house, great location

House was as advertised. Proximity to the beach couldn’t be beat. Property manager was very responsive; had a minor hiccup with the heating during the below-freezing cold snap while we were there but someone was out and had it fixed up very quickly. Only minor detraction is having to check in at the rental office (even though it’s very close) instead of having key code emailed or texted to us ahead of time.

Hi Adam, Thanks for reviewing. I know it is a bit of an inconvenience to have to come here to our office but since before Covid, our doors were always open because we like to meet and welcome our guests face to face so they know we are available 24/7 if anything is needed during their stay as well as making sure we give them the check in/check out instructions and other important items about the house. We will be re-opening our doors, masks required, on April 9 when Governor Ivey lifts the mask requirement. We are a bit of an "old school" type of company and believe in Southern hospitality and greeting our guests. I'm glad you did enjoy Kessler house and your vacation and I hope we get to see you guys again soon! Thanks, Reed Real Estate

Wished it didn’t end!!!

The property is as billed in the description. The view was amazing. You walk out the front door and it’s about 100-150 yard walk to the water. The kitchen and family room provided a perfect space for us all to hangout..,.that is when we were not hanging out on the beach or deck. The location is a bit away from all the commercial businesses...but that was good with us. We truly felt like we had our own private beach at times. I can only say a couple of not so positive things...make sure to take bath towels and kitchen towels unless you want to do the laundry everyday. They did not provide very many at all. I could have sworn they said beach towels were provided as well...but that wasn’t the case. Thats a solid vacation if those are my only issues! We would definitely go back!
