This beach house was exactly what we wanted for our vacation! We loved the remote location away from other rental properties as well as more space to ourselves on the beach! The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and lots of games and books to explore. Everybody's favorite was the screened in porch and big, comfy swing! We also made use of the extra beach towels, toys, and chairs provided in the storage room. We hope to return again and again! Thank you!

Great Location to stay

We loved the house and location of stay. Only a short walk to beach and not crowded. We loved that they also had some beach supplies like a wagon that we didn't have to pack and bring. Very spacious and screened in porch was nice to sit in the mornings and evenings without bugs.

Fort Morgan is the finish line for the Great Alabama 650 paddle race and I was a racer and mu husband and 2 other friends were my support / ground crew. After a week of racing we needed a quiet, clean, comfy place to recover and this place was absolutely perfect!! everything we needed was right here. Thanks so much, we absolutely enjoyed our stay.

We had a great time. There was a bit of a walk to the beach but not too far. The beach was nice and uncrowded. The house was comfy with plenty of room in the house for the three of us. The only issue we had was there were a lot of sand burs. Overall it was a nice week.

Nice location

The Rustic Retreat was very comfortable and the screened in porch provided a nice bug-free view of the beach. We were there to fish and it was located near Ft. Morgan Marina. There wasn’t many houses near it which made it one of the most private rentals I’ve stayed in at Ft Morgan. The host was awesome! Would definitely stay there again.

We absolutely love the place. Love the rustic atmosphere. Very short walk to the beach. Not many people on the beach so a lot of privacy. The place is very equipped to stay here for a week. We definitely will be back our new home at the beach!

Annual vacation

The pictures were on point and the stand along ice machine was good since we all carried water bottles everyday. Being able to enjoy the sound of the wave every morning on the porch was great. The short walk to the beach with the supplied cart and chairs was a plus. Everyone enjoyed their stay.

Our stay was perfect! Girls trip with our daughters and this property was exactly what we needed. It reuly felt like a home away from home. So peaceful and comfortable and quiet. I have never stayed somewhere so well stocked. From kitchen necessities to beach gear, games and entertainment this place had it all. The beacÄĄ was beautiful and uncrowded. We got to see crabs, dolphins, and a variety of birds. The kids really loved it. This host was easy to contact and truly thought of everything. We would definitely stay here again. Perfect for a girls trip or family vacation!

Rustic Retreat getaway

This property was great! The home is comfortable, roomy and well-equipped with anything and everything we needed. The kitchen had plenty of pots, pans, utensils, dishware, silverware and just about anything else we needed to cook. The laundry room was so nice to have and the master bedroom comfy and roomy. Access to the beach was just a short walk--and the enclosed screen porch, with its south and west views, gave us a panoramic view of the water and the gulf. It was a great stay!

We love the Fort Morgan area and were very pleased with this property. It was clean and very comfortable. Lots of pots and pans, plenty of silverware and drinking glasses. There is an on-site ice machine in the laundry room, and plenty of towels and extra blankets and pillows. We loved sitting on the porch in the mornings and then in the evenings when winding down from the day. We can’t wait to come back in the summer!

Perfect get away!

The house was great! We enjoyed our quiet time next to the beach. The neighborhood was friendly, quiet and relaxed. We enjoyed our time in town, but most of all we enjoyed the house. Board games, books, tv time, screened in porch. It was the perfect family time for our family. My husband, myself, 16 year old son and 17 year old daughter. Thank you Mike and Linda! The kids have already said this house should be our new family tradition.
