Great experience. New owners. Owners and property managers are very responsive to issues.This was our 4th time staying at this home. It's an easy walk to the beach. Off the back porch, the street goes directly to the beach entrance. It also has access to a swimming pool and tennis courts which the kids, especially when they were younger, have enjoyed almost more than the beach.

We love this place. This is our third time staying at this house. The gates were a plus since we had a two year old with us. He did find a loose balliste, but maintaince came out promptly and fixed it. The kitchen is ver spacious with a very roomy pantry.

The house and location to the beach were great! Property Manager was great! The only negative was the spying drone that came around hovering over us when we were on the front deck!

The house was casual and clean and comfortable, perfect for our family with small children. We loved the covered porches. Property manager checked in with us on the first day to see if we needed anything. We enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed a brief fall getaway in Fort Morgan. The house was lovely, clean, well-equipped. One block to beach access, across the street from the pool. Not crowded. Would rent again. Highly recommend you try the Sassy Bass Pizza!

We enjoyed the beach house!! Everything worked (air conditioner, dish washer, ect). Plenty of kitchen supplies for 6 adults and 3 kids. Really appreciated gate on the porches to keep the 2 year contained.

Thanks you for the kind words. We are so pleased to hear that you and your family had an amazing vacation! We look forward to welcoming you back.
This was our second time staying at this property. We love the neighborhood, the pool, and easy access to a private beach. The house is spacious and comes with everything you need! Two decks-one for morning and one for evening, an outdoor shower so you leave allllll the sand under the house, and easy access to some sweet spots in Ft Morgan.

Blessings in the Sand was spacious with a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the neighborhood feel of Heritage Shores. The home was near the pools and was actually a little closer to the beach than it appeared in photos. The front and rear balconies were nice where we could see the bay and the beach.
Definitely we would rent this property again. This was our first time staying in the Fort Morgan area.

This is the 3rd year that we have stayed at Blessings in the Sand. We love it and it is very pet friendly. We were a little disappointed with the lack of towels on this past visit. I would have brought some of my own had I known they were going to cut back. Overall, we love the house!

We have stayed in this area many times prior and have always enjoyed our stay. The house was nice. Wish it would have had a few more kitchen utensils (frying pans) but other than that we had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was nice. Really could not have asked for anything more. The house was perfect for my family.
