Overall it was good but it wasn’t what was on the picture as advertised

Listing was just as advertised. If your not into the tourist hot spots and activities, Fort Morgan will not disappoint. Peaceful and beautiful with great fishing opportunities throughout the area. Beach house took care of all our needs, would highly recommend.

This property is on the bay side but it’s a very short walk to the public beach. The house has good space for a group or family. Kitchen is well-stocked with cookware and dishes.

The house was great once we cleaned up a bit. Beds and furniture were very comfy, we loved the location and the views and how close it was to the local beaches, not a far drive back into the main gulf shores city area too. Unfortunately, the house was sold while we were staying there and the internet got shut off for 5 days and barely worked after a temp router was set up. We had planned to stay just over 3 weeks but had to cut the trip short due to the inconveniences this caused. The new owner was great and reached out personally & did his best once he realized the situation. The property mngt company, however, has been difficult to communicate with and the refund that was promised due to these issues still hasn't been reveived, it's been almost 3 weeks since we left. I have have called multiple times to see if I can get updates and it's still not resolved. Hopefully it will be soon but feels now as though they were running out the clock on me leaving a review, today was the deadline.

This is our second time staying here with the dogs. It’s a beautiful place to stay. We love the privacy of the area. It’s perfect location. There’s a small beach for the dogs to swim. There are a few restaurants near by that are great! Only about 25 min to Gulf shores. We would love to come back for a third time next year!
