Fun rental for a family of 4

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.

House it self was clean

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.

Take a relaxing trip to Fort Morgan.

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.

Great Stay

Our stay was great! Nice and peaceful. The "Beach" at the bay was very nice. A few suggestions. The steps were hard for my mom to get up and down. A handicap ramp would be nice for older people. I kind of like them myself. Pictures of the outside need to be updated. The property didn't show the new houses on each of the house. Overall it was a great experience!!!
