    Great place to stay. Plenty of living space in the house. Area was nice and quiet, beautiful views. Easy drive to Fort Morgan definitely worth exploring with two beautiful beaches very close as well.

    We enjoyed our stay in Fort Morgan. The house is great for parents plus 2 teens and we loved bringing our dog also. Furnishings are fine (not deluxe) though the couch was kinda permeated with sand, which didn’t come from our dog because we only allowed her to sit on ottoman that I covered with my own sheet. There’s more neighboring rentals than you see in the listing photos, I think they haven’t been updated since several properties were built. The beach is slightly in view but you are looking past the other houses to see the bay. But those are minor details and the price was very reasonable. I definitely overall recommend the property! We loved that it’s less than a mile walk to get to the beach on the Gulf side of Fort Morgan. We had fun exploring tiny Fort Morgan and still drove back to Gulf Shores at some point each day. We did a sunset dolphin cruise from a place called Surfs Up and they did the 2-boat wale and we saw so many dolphins! Great family activity and our teenagers loved it.

    We do a anniversary getaway with friends. This is year 4! We grill and sit outside and watch the sunset and enjoy being together. We learned the grill was not usable! The boards to get to the Private Beach access were rotten with nails coming out of the as well as bushes growing up between the boards in a few places. We sent pictures and let them know we planned to grill! Nothing was done. We won't rent this place again. We will try to be more careful about the places we stay.

    Our time at Blue Marlin in Fort Morgan was so relaxing. Cozy residence which we needed as one day the wind was so high with rain. Fishing was great and neighbors were fine.
