Amazing place.

We absolutely loved staying at this property. The location is beautiful, the house is right on the water and is very comfortable! We even had a issue with our heater and not only did they have someone out to check but he actually replaced the whole heater within hours! Can’t say enough good things, we will for sure be coming back.

Nice place

Great location. We have stayed in condos in Orange Beach and Gulf Shores many times but love the laid back pace with the homes of Fort Morgan. While the home is older, it was a perfect size for us. It could use updates to the interior but we didn’t mind that. We appreciated the large, gated deck. Harris Vacations, the property manager, was very responsive and quickly resolved a repair that we reported. The kitchen was well equipped with crockpot, electric griddle, drip and pod coffee makers, blender, toaster, and lots of cooking supplies including a large pot for shrimp boils.

Great location. You pull up onto sand with a view of the beach even from your car. We loved the patio with the locked gate so dogs could be free to roam on the deck while we watched the ways. Away from touristy area. So nice!

Beautiful Week on the Beach

The location is amazing! It is just steps away from the ocean and perfect for our family beach vacation. Quiet neighborhood, spaced out homes, and pet friendly beach made for an excellent getaway. The home was very clean and everything was in working order. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a week worth of meals and there were 2 local stores/shops very close and we were only an easy 20 minute drive away from larger/big-box stores. We truly enjoyed it and would stay again.
