This was my first stay using VRBO and the property did not disappoint. The property is just as described, very clean and appointed well with a little bit of a sun/salty character on the large decks. Location is really great with views of the gulf with fairly good privacy, yet easy access. Nice heatable pool. I really enjoyed the large front deck when you want to get out of the sun for a while. Great communication and Mick was responsive for any questions thank you!

We have been to Fort Morgen before and love the quiet beaches there. This house was just as it looked online. Clean, spacious deck, clean pool. Heating the pool was perfect in early spring (small fee per day to heat but owner told us about that a month early). Owner was very nice, easy to reach and responded promptly. House did not come with a lot of amenities like beach toys/chairs, bikes ect but we were not expecting them so it was fine. The house does sit in a neighborhood so walking in evening/mornings was nice. Beach access is right across the driveway. It was a great place for spring break.

This is absolutely the best property to stay with the beach basically at your front door. I love not having to go up and down stairs to the private pool this place also offers. There are several eateries within a 5 mile radius. It’s a beautifully quiet end of the beach. This house has everything you could possibly need for a great vacation.
