Welcome to our family retreat! We endure agonizing car rides with whining children for the profound serenity and fresh air at the end of the island. Share in the magic of our house that many of our previous guests have written about in our guest book. The sound of waves will lull you to sleep at night. The sun will rejuvenate you during the day. Our home is Bright and Roomy with a perfect angle for maximum views of the beach and ocean.
We are tucked away near the end of the Fort Morgan peninsula, away from the endless crowds. We have an enormous duplex home with a drive under carport, elevator and four floors. You will notice granite countertops, pine floors and large walk-in showers in our home. Enjoy a spectacular view of the ocean and still have the beautiful grassy dunes. Mobile Bay can be seen from the front side of the house. Our home is appointed with the finest linens and gorgeous beach chic furnishings.

Girl's Getaway 2011
Guest: Ann E.
Date of Stay: 08/19/11
Review Submitted: 08/26/11
I stayed at this house with my daughters and my nieces from Louisiana; I came in from North Carolina. The house was wonderful, everything was picture perfect. The house was well cleaned, spacious and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable too. The layout was excellent, lots of space! Everything you would need was provided. The large shower is to die for and so was the whirlpool tub. We visited Waterville, the Tanger Outlets, Walmart and even drove down to Orange Beach and did a dolphin tour. Enjoyed the pool, the spa, and the beach where the chairs are already provided for you. The water temperature of the pool and the beach was great. We ate at the Oyster House and the food and service was excellent. I highly recommend this house for any vacation. Looking forward to returning again. The owners were great, good people to work with; kind and considerate. Didn't have to contact them at all after arriving because everything was PERFECT! Just should have gotten the elevator; recommend for anyone over 50. Thanks again Krista my girls had the best time ever.

I stayed at this wonderful house a few weeks ago with my sisters and their children. It was warm and relaxing, with a little walk to the beach. I could not have asked for anything better! The home was everything that we expected, clean and well maintained. The owners were helpful and provided all the info that we needed. Thanks for allowing us to experience your wonderful home!
