This was a short walk to the beach and had minimal traffic in the neighborhood. Only thing to consider is if you go out to plan ahead as it’s 18 miles from the main highway but that didn’t bother us and will definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments: We booked a very last minute stay. We knew we wanted the beach and a pet friendly location. Shellcase exceeded every expectation. We had plenty of room for our 3 kids, their friends and our dog. The home was nice and inviting. It was essentially on the beach, as we walk farther at other locations. We loved this trip and will definitely return!

Reviewer Comments: Shell Chase was a beautiful place to stay and easily accommodated 9 of us plus a small dog.....very close to the beach.....the place is in a gated community toward the end of the island so it is approximately 25 minutes to civilization....the kids especially loves the pool and the ice cream truck that visited daily.......we found the house to be clean and stocked with what we needed......we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to getaway and relax with family and friends!

Kathy, we appreciate you being our loyal guest and I do apologize that the clean was not up to our standards. I will reach out to housekeeping about these issues. This is the time of the year that all of our properties are deep cleaned, so that will be addressed soon.

Great stay at Shellchase

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we had a great time on our trip to Fort Morgan, staying at the Shellchase. We booked the house with plans of two other families coming as well, but due to Covid-19, and extended missed work, they were not able to join. This house was more than enough space for the 5 of us and had just about everything we could have needed. The basement area with beach supplies was very handy! The only draw back was that the half bath off kitchen. Will continue to run if the handle isn't jiggled, but even that became a joke among the kids. All happy memories were created during this stay.
