Big Breezy 5 bedroom Beachfront Retreat with Pool By Prickett Properties

This was our first family vacation to the beach. We had a wonderful time. I guess the only complaint I would have is that one of the showers wasn’t cleaned. There was still a soggy bar of soap and hair in the shower. Next time we will probably try to stay closer to Gulf Shores. We were almost to the end of Fort Morgan.

We have been renting vacation homes for 35 years and we would put Big Breezy in the top 50% of where we have stayed. The beach and water is beautiful and not crowded. The house has a nice layout and was clean. Plenty of parking. There are a few things that need attention. There is not enough lighting in the parking area, a few pieces of furniture needed to be replaced due to wear and tear in this pet friendly rental. The folks at Prickett were quick to respond to requests. All in all it was a nice rental, we understand it's the end of the season and things get heavy use, but the owners need to focus on repairs and a deep cleaning in the off season for next year.

We enjoyed the week we spent at Big Breezy West. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of space. We only had people on the other side of the duplex for a day. I wish there were a divider between the 2 balconies for privacy but the view of the beach was great.

Thoroughly enjoyed

Big extended family week at Ft Morgan, all ages shapes and sizes. Prickett is The Best! House was perfect

Loved this house. Best one we have stayed at. Only complaint was wishing there was a door separating the 2 porches on main level. Rooms were very nice size beds were comfortable, kitchen was wonderful and had all the utensils and pans you would need other than a baking sheet, even had a crock pot. View was wonderful and nice walk to beach

First, I will say that the location of this property is excellent. It's a beautiful area and away from the crowds of Gulf Shores. But there is a general lack of maintenance of this property. I was very disappointed in the lack of attention to basic upkeep and amenities. There were 2 chairs and 3 stools on the balcony. One of the chairs was broken and couldn't be used. We pieced one of the stools back together so it could be used, but they were all in various states of disrepair. One of the chairs at the bar in the kitchen had the whole bottom rail broken and splintered. Most of the doorstops in the house were broken and the sheetrock was busted up and cracked. The coverings over the chairs at the kitchen table were grease-stained and dirty. We had two coffee cups for the whole house, extremely minimal pots and pans, and there are no basics (salt and pepper) that are usually supplied in a VRBO rental. The mattresses on all of the beds were worn out and in poor condition. If I had been staying in a primitive-type cabin somewhere, I might understand, but we were paying over $700 per night and were expecting an above-average rental. It appears that this rental has been used and abused and the property owners are not putting anything back into the property for maintenance. Although we loved the location and the beach, it was not worth the price to stay at a rental with so many issues. This is part of a duplex and our neighboring renters expressed the same problems with their unit. This place needs some work.

House was large, kept up well & you really are just steps to your own beachfront! Great location exactly what we were looking for!

Great for the family!! Loved being right on the beach. Only downfall is drive into town.

Great decor. Kitchen stocked.
