Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was perfect and had great space for everyone to spread out. They kitchen is well stocked. This was a short walk to the beach and had minimal traffic in the neighborhood. Only thing to consider is if you go out to plan ahead as it’s 18 miles from the main highway but that didn’t bother us and will definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments: We booked a very last minute stay. We knew we wanted the beach and a pet friendly location. Shellcase exceeded every expectation. We had plenty of room for our 3 kids, their friends and our dog. The home was nice and inviting. It was essentially on the beach, as we walk farther at other locations. We loved this trip and will definitely return!

Great stay at Shellchase

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we had a great time on our trip to Fort Morgan, staying at the Shellchase. We booked the house with plans of two other families coming as well, but due to Covid-19, and extended missed work, they were not able to join. This house was more than enough space for the 5 of us and had just about everything we could have needed. The basement area with beach supplies was very handy! The only draw back was that the half bath off kitchen. Will continue to run if the handle isn't jiggled, but even that became a joke among the kids. All happy memories were created during this stay.

Perfect Family Beach Vacation

Large duplex, I did not realize it was only half a house, but it was a three story huge house for 8 adults. Very comfortable couches in the main room, large back deck with two tables to eat outside, very close to the beach, just watch for the poisonous snakes! (didn't see any, just had signs posted. A few pointers I would suggest, the master bathroom on the main floor, needs a black out curtain because you wake up at the crack of dawn from the sunlight. The pink upstairs bedroom is connected to the orange bedroom, so you need to walk thru the orange room to access the pink one, that is probably only good for kids and parents. I would also suggest a folder or binder of nearby things to do, places to go, where to get groceries, etc. The internet is very spotty, so do not expect to be working out of the home. Definitely have the gate code, and door code and directions on screen shots on your phone because you will NOT get wifi access outside the house! and you will need them to get in. It is a very very very quiet area ( except for the neighbors sometimes) great beach, but put your chairs down early! it fills up fast! Clear water, not much seaweed, a TON OF MARINE LIFE, we saw dolphins almost daily, got a ton of seashells, and almost stepped on a stingray! Great house, would be back again.
