    We have booked this vacation home multiple times and love it! Mick is amazing with communication. The house is extremely clean, the pool is excellent, the view and small few steps to the beach are perfect. We will continue to vacation and reserve this house as long as we can.

    This is the cleanest rental we’ve ever had the pleasure to rent. Communication with the owner was so easy. The layout is phenomenal. The pool area worked so well for the days that the ocean wasn’t cooperative. The kitchen was also very well-stocked. The bedroom layout was great for my family. The outdoor shower was the icing on the cake. We will definitely rent this again.

    This was my first stay using VRBO and the property did not disappoint. The property is just as described, very clean and appointed well with a little bit of a sun/salty character on the large decks. Location is really great with views of the gulf with fairly good privacy, yet easy access. Nice heatable pool. I really enjoyed the large front deck when you want to get out of the sun for a while. Great communication and Mick was responsive for any questions thank you!

    We have been to Fort Morgen before and love the quiet beaches there. This house was just as it looked online. Clean, spacious deck, clean pool. Heating the pool was perfect in early spring (small fee per day to heat but owner told us about that a month early). Owner was very nice, easy to reach and responded promptly. House did not come with a lot of amenities like beach toys/chairs, bikes ect but we were not expecting them so it was fine. The house does sit in a neighborhood so walking in evening/mornings was nice. Beach access is right across the driveway. It was a great place for spring break.

    This is absolutely the best property to stay with the beach basically at your front door. I love not having to go up and down stairs to the private pool this place also offers. There are several eateries within a 5 mile radius. It’s a beautifully quiet end of the beach. This house has everything you could possibly need for a great vacation.

    The house was perfect front covered deck or back pool deck the ocean was in full view, just beautiful. Had great communication with the host Mick he was absolutely wonderful. House was clean well organized, with all the necessities in the kitchen, just perfect. Away from the hustle and bustle of Gulf Shores with a short drive if you want to look things over. Close to the ferry we took that across and went and explored Fort Gaines on Dauphin Island. The whole vacation was 10/10. We will be back.

    We have stayed here for multiple vacations, and usually with a larger group, including younger family members. Check-in and check-outs are so simple and Communication with the owner is easily available. This facility is always clean and provides many essentials. The kitchen has all the cookware needed, and there is an outside grill available. The large front porch provides an excellent view of the beach , which is literally across the street. But the great pool is one of the things that keeps us coming back. Someone is in it constantly. There is also great restaurants and shopping areas close by. Love the place, and we will be returning to enjoy it all again.

We saw all sorts of sea life, and tons of dolphins. The front porch was perfect to sit in the morning with a cup of coffee and watch the waves. The pool is an added benefit with the kiddos!

    This was our second time staying at Mick’s beachview property in Fort Morgan, and it absolutely won’t be our last. The location is everything we love about a beach vacation—peaceful, private, and far from the hustle of big tourist spots like Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, yet still only a quick 15-minute drive if we wanted to grab dinner or check out the shops.The view from the house is breathtaking, and being just steps away from a quiet stretch of beach is something truly special. One of the major highlights for our family is the private heated pool—and yes, it’s actually warm, unlike many places that claim to have heated pools but don’t deliver. It was perfect for relaxing at any time of day.Mick is a fantastic host. He reached out well in advance of our trip, the week before, and even the day of check-in to make sure we had everything we needed. When we noticed a minor issue (a broken chair), he responded right away, apologized, and had someone out to fix it the very next day—keeping us updated the whole time. You can tell he truly cares about his guests' experience.As a family of five adults and two kids, we had plenty of space to spread out, enjoy family game nights, movie time, and just relax. Everything about this home makes it easy to enjoy your time and make lasting memories.Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quieter, family-friendly beach getaway. Thanks again, Mick—we can't wait to come back! P.S. Go Brewers

    This is the second time we stayed at the property and this time I would rate as just ok. The weather was not the best and we ended up spending a lot more time in the house than before. Our opinion is the condition of the property has declined and it was not as well kept up as before. There was mold on the ceiling in the master bath shower toilet room, and mildew around the deck area and rear entry door. The rear sliding door was very difficult to open and close, specially for our younger children. We had issues with the pool heater not working multiple times and it seemed to coincide when we were looking to use it. Sounds like it was an internet service issue. It was just unfortunate when you pay an extra 50/day. We did appreciate the host paying attention to that. We are several meals in the house and also ran into issues with the refrigerator freezing food even though it was set on a low temp. The master bed was uncomfortable and very noisy, we definitely did not sleep well tossing and turning then waking each other up with the squeaking when we moved, one of the beds upstairs was similar. We love the location, but left feeling disappointed this trip.and probably looking to vacation somewhere different next time.

    Mick was friendly from the moment I booked and continued to respond quickly when I had any questions. The house was perfect for our family & grandparents. The kids loved the heated pool and the very short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower with hot water is what every beach house is missing! I kept the kids shampoo out there and would go ahead and bathe all three when leaving the beach. Fort Morgan is so peaceful-none of the spring break crowd.

    Very nice property. Great location, well maintained, furnished and cleaned. Nice gift bag provided water, hugger and sunscreen. As a practical matter, we would have preferred a box of tissues and a 2nd roll of toilet paper. The only real negative was a listing failure. Given the time of year, I selected this property specifically for the heated pool. After arrival, I learned there was an additional $50 per day fee to actually turn the heater on.
