We had a fabulous time in Fort Morgan. The house was so clean. When the gulf was too rough to swim, we had the pool to lounge in. We could go into town during the day and have beach and pool time in the afternoons and evenings. We love the family atmosphere in Fort Morgan area. Loved our stay at this house!

Large Family Get Together
This Beach House was an absolutely perfect vacation spot for our large family. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the views of the Gulf and the pristine white sand beach. The house itself was spacious and had all the amenities we could have asked for.
The location was perfect for us, as it was just a short drive from Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, but far enough away to feel like we had our own private oasis.

Loved the duplex and pool. The beach was close enough for a 75 year old with 4 artificial joints to go to the beach and back. All the family loved the huge long table that fit all of us!!!! We enjoyed it very much!!

The BEST vacation ever!
We had the greatest time! The house was AMAZING! The view when you walk in is breathtaking! Rooms are beautiful. Beach was GORGEOUS. Our 11yo loved sitting on the balcony and watching the dolphins. Our boys(14 and 15) had a blast looking at all the crabs at night(there were so many). All three kids loved the pool and snorkeling everyday! You also aren’t that far from all of the fun of Gulf Shores! This is the perfect location if you want a fun, no fuss, beautiful family vacation!

This is a perfect place to enjoy time away from the crazy busy beach crowds! Plenty of room to spread out and rest, rock on the screened-in porch, or have large family meals. The accommodations are lovely! This area reminds me of old (70s) Destin. The only thing unexpected is all the oil rigs in the Gulf...but even they are beautiful lit up at night.

We really enjoyed the house. It was large, has a good floor plan, and was in a nice location. The only thing I would change is that I wish the pool were heated, so that we could have gone swimming without being cold during out stay since it was upper 70's/low 80'sF outside, but the water was still a little too cool to stay in the pool long.

2022 Family Vacation
Our family loved so much about this property. It has enough space for a large family to spread out when needed. The pool was very nice & the proximity to the beach made it easy to go back & forth frequently throughout the day. Overall was a great place. The only thing I would have changed is to have a few 'staples' like coffee, sugar.... All of the other VRBOs we have used in the past have had a small amount of these things to get us started. One even had a welcome basket with snacks. We did find a great little store just down the road to pick up a few things & we were able to get groceries delivered to the house. But definitely would go back to this one. It is a great area.
