Great Get Away!

The property was wonderful! The proximity to the pool was fantastic for our kids! (Just make sure to bring bug spray, the mosquitos are huge down there!). The house was well stocked. Seriously, the only thing I thought could have been added is some lamps in the living room. The main lights were bright when trying to get our kids settled for bed. We would certainly consider returning to this property in the future!

Peace and quiet

We stayed at this property for the whole month of February 2022. Coming from Minnesota, warm weather was our number one objective. In short, for the four of us, this property was a perfect location. 5 minutes to the beach, the neighbors were friendly and quiet. The unit itself had everything we needed. Very clean and parking was right outside the building. The owners were very responsive and friendly. the Weather we had couldn't of been much better and the Fort Morgan site was only a 5 mile drive away. We were sad to leave.

Great Family Vacation

The place was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room for four adults and four kids. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook most of our meals for 7 days. The property was great. The tennis courts and pool were close and we could walk. Additionally, the pool was never crowded when we were there. We rented the golf cart for the week and it was perfect. We went to the beach almost every day and thankful we had the golf cart. It was close, but would have been difficult carry all of our stuff. The beach access was perfect. We found a spot every day and it was never crowded. I enjoyed how we were away from the busyness of Gulf Shore and Orange Beach, but close enough to enjoy the attractions and restaurants.

It'll do

5 STARS FOR THE CONDO. The condo was clean, spacious and had comfortable sleeping and lounge space. The patio sofa made sitting on the front porch nice and relaxing in the morning. The two sofas in the living room were great for lounging and watching movies after a long day at the beach. Once the rest of our group came, seating was tight. A loveseat/sofa in place of the two chairs would've been perfect. The bunk room for the kids was perfect and a deciding factor for choosing this particular property. The tennis courts and pool are right behind the property and a short walk which is another big plus. We really can't emphasize enough how nice the condo is.1 STAR FOR THE PARKING. The Rookery I & II DO NOT have designated parking. The Rookery III does. This would eliminate the parking issues. Guest from other condos parked right in front of our condo, blocking the walkway. They parked at angle, taking up two spots instead of one, forcing us to park in the guest area or do the same and park in another condo's area. We had to trek across the parking lot to load and unload luggage, ice chest and groceries. 2 STARS FOR THE BEACH. Parking at the beach is almost nonexistent. GOLF CARTS ARE A MUST or just walk from the Rookery. Good luck parking if you have a full size truck. We were all very disappointed with the beach. It was very crowded and hard to find a spot not on top of other people. The trash from PEOPLE was disgusting. I even saw a used tampon applicator!

Perfect Place for our Family

We had 5 adults and 2 teens and we fit very comfortably and could have brought a couple more people. The space is open and great for hanging out together! Super close to the pool, hot tub, and the beach access is only minutes away! We rented the owner’s golf cart and used it to travel back and forth to the beach! Less sand in our vehicles was a plus! We absolutely love Fort Morgan, it’s away from the hustle and bustle of Orange Beach but close enough to go in for some shopping, eating, or a dolphin tour! Love our trip! Owners went above and beyond! Kitchen was well stocked!

Nice place away from the crowds

The condo was in great condition and very clean when we arrived. It is about 15 miles from the strip in Gulf Shores, but there are several convenience stores nearby for anything you might need. The pools are nice and close by to spend the day, or the beach is just a short drive. We visited Fort Morgan and the Marina one day which are both a short drive away. The hosts were terrific and were very prompt in answering our messages. As others have stated, the Internet/wifi is slow, but it's good enough. Who goes on vacation to play on the internet anyway? Lol Highly recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Pope

Host profile image

My family and I came to Gulf Shores on vacation and fell in love with the area; a year later we bought our condo in the Fort Morgan area. After vacationing in the Fort Morgan area a couple of times a year, we decided to make it a permanent vacation.
We are currently living in Gulf Shores!! We have a house close to school and decided to share our little piece of paradise by the beach with other beach and nature lovers :)

Why they chose this property

This property offers plenty of entertainment for the family. We have 2 beautiful pools to swim and relax after spending the day at the beach, golfing, hiking or exploring the area. The complex located near the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge, so its surrounded by nature.
We are located a short distance to the beach, about 2,5 blocks away. The bay is not far away either.
Within the complex you'll find a tennis court, which is right behind the house and right by the pool.

What makes this property unique

Short distance to the beach. Access to two pools, tennis courts, picnic area, and a hot tub. Our unit is located really close to the pool area and right by the tennis court.
