Guestbook comments from the manager
We spent 5 nights at Summer Wind. Even though it was not super fancy, the location was superb! We had a few neighbors that we shared the beach with, but it was almost as if it was our beach exclusively. The house was clean, there was lots of room, our dog was welcome, and the views were fantastic. We walked right out the back door to the beach and played in the surf and sand to our heart's delight. We spotted a couple of Dolphins traveling toward Fort Morgan on our last day. The washer and dryer were rather old, but they worked okay. There was a soft spot in the downstairs bathroom that was a bit scary, but it survived our wet feet. The pool was clean and we enjoyed some family time splashing together. On the down side, it was about a 25 minute drive to restaurants and attractions. All in all, it was a wonderful place to spend time with our family!

The Beach Was Amazing! ❤️
The house needs some improvements. A lot of soft spots on the floors and the dryer doesn't work well. But with that being said, the house served its purpose for us. It gave us a place to sleep and eat. We spent the entire vacation at the beach, which was a short walk out the back door. We would definitely stay here again.
Great Location, needs some TLC
Location, pool and overall great place except for the first floor has several "soft spots" which felt like you could fall through!! 😬
It is a really nice and quiet place for families to stay.
We stayed the entire week that our youngest son got married. There were 9 of us total and we had out of town guest come to visit some during the day. There is plenty of room, plenty of bedding space and plenty of room to get away from the rest of the guest if you like.
Great house
Wonderful view, comfortable house
Undermaintained, underequipped, dirty carpet, worn flooring. Great location and view. Nice pool.
The location was perfect, right on the beach, with a small pool shared by 4 houses. The view and beach access were great. Not as many houses on this stretch as along other parts of the beach. Price is very attractive. But you get what you pay for. There were no clothes hangers, we had to go buy some. There were no placemats for the table. There was 1 small spoon and only 6 forks. The manual can opener fell apart when I tried to use it. The electric can opener didn't work. They replaced it promptly. The carpet is dirty and worn. The floors are in bad shape. The sheets are too short, old sheets made when mattresses were thinner. I shopped for hangars, place mats, flatware just so we could put our clothes away and eat a meal. If price and location outweigh other considerations, this is your place. But if you want comfort and nice lodgings, this is substandard. The garbage carts for all 4 houses were at the highway. We had to roll them back to the house to use. Several garbage pails at the main road had spilled garbage on the road. It took them a week to address this, so we drove past garbage every time we went in or out.
We loved Fort Morgan just not harris properties
Upon arrival we could tell the house had it's issues, But since it was the first day we tried to look over it. The first night the septic overflowed and the alarm went off.The bathroom downstairs smelled like urine from the time we got there. The downstairs hallway had a huge dip in the floor and so does the downstairs bathroom.The grab bar in the shower is just sitting in place, The hotwater never lasted more than 10 minutes or so. The cable never worked properly we called and they came out several times but we finally gave up on tv.The hardwood floors had big gaps in them.The screens on the windows were all rotten and broken. Everyone in the house got a bad rash, I'm not sure if the house had fleas or what the deal was but we even tried to wash all the sheets and the problem didn't go away.To sum up our vacation we loved Fort Morgan but we'll not be staying in any harris properties in the future.
