    Perfect location - Outstanding communication with host. Spotless rental with everything we needed. Tons of space with convenient beach access. For those concerned about it being a duplex, we had neighbors 3 of the 4 days with zero issues. First time here but will NOT be the last!

    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!

Rapid communication back and forth, answered all questions and provided excellent customer service. There were some extras for little ones (beach toys and what not), which was a pleseant surprise. We did not want to leave this place, and will be looking to be repeat guests next time. Thanks for having us!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 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.
