November Refreshment

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: Perfect time for rest and relaxation at a wonderful location. What you see advertised is exactly what you get. The home was clean and appealing. The master suite and balcony is fantastic. There was a huge cabinet of books to enjoy with so many of my favorite authors. I read 3 while lounging on the porches, drinking coffee and enjoying the breezes and view. The management company does an excellent job. We will certainly be choosing them again for future stays.

Fall Beach Trip

The property was well maintained and clean. Check in was easy and the property manage was attentive. She even came by after we checked in to see if we needed anything. Kitchen was nicely stocked and the furniture and beds were comfortable. It was so convenient to walk to the beach and so quiet this time of year. Would definitely stay here again.

Beach Stay at Tranquility

This house has plenty of room and was very comfortable for our group of 9. The beds are really comfy. We love the location and Morgantown. It is a very short walk to the beach. The view from the decks is lovely. The house overall was clean. It could benefit from some deep cleaning in the kitchen and some household maintenance inside and out . We had a great stay in spite of those things.

Great Home with Amazing Views

What a wonderful experience! Our first trip back to Fort Morgan in over 6 years did not disappoint. Everything was perfect for our stay. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchen was perfect. Fort Morgan offers so many more dining options than pre-Covid, and we didn't even need to drive into Gulf Shores or Orange Beach for anything other than attending Mass and picking up something at Walgreens. We spent the majority of our time doing what we intended ... walking on the beach, playing in the water with the dogs, and just relaxing and hanging out at the house. We would LOVE to return if you'll have us back!

Beautiful home with awesome views!

This home will not disappoint! The floor plan is awesome, and the master suite is extremely large with great views! The bedding is very comfortable. The lower main floor deck also has great views. The kitchen has all the supplies you need. The keurig is a plus for those who have different preferences for coffee, but a regular coffee pot is also available. A charcoal grill is available for those who like to grill. The home is located in a beautiful community, with a very short walk to the beach! We will definitely stay here again!

We brought our dog this year, and it was nice to be able to have him on our vacation, and on the beach.The house was large and had everything needed for an enjoyable beach stay. The views from the upper balcony were a great place for morning coffee, and you are literally a short walk to the beach. We had no issues coming and going.Gulf Shores is about 20 minutes away, just a short drive for shopping and dining.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We came down to Fort Morgan for a quick getaway and found this house online. The prices were very reasonable so we decided to give it a shot. After staying here, we couldn’t believe the house was priced so great for the niceness and location. They have everything you could need, every bedroom is beautiful, and the master bedroom is incredible with perfect views. We took our dogs with us and the way it’s laid out at the bottom is perfect for walking your dogs in middle of the night when it’s raining. We had a great time and plan on staying here from now on!

Reset

This home was what my family needed to feel comfortable and to be able to relax. we have three children two who are autistic. This home gave us a safe place to feel comfortable and enjoy the pace of life.. We feel so lucky to have stayed at a place and be together as a family and enjoying one another company. The location to the beach is out of sight. The neighborhood is family, friendly and extremely clean. The house was very clean. It was nice that there were not a ton of decorations. Provided boardgames, which is an added plus. We would recommend this home for anybody who is looking to reset being a clean space and feel comfortable.

Perfectly relaxing getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This vacation home is stunning. The layout was perfect for our family of 4, or 5 counting our goldendoodle. 😊 The house is located away from the hustle & bustle of the touristy areas, not directly on the beach but an easy 2-3 min walk & good enough ocean views to experience serenity. Food places & stores were a quick drive away. The porches were incredible & had safety gates for kids & pets alike. There was quite a bit of fur on the furniture & even the kitchen counters, but it was easily remedied with lint rollers & clorox wipes. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

House was almost perfect.

We enjoyed our stay and to be fair this review is based on our personal preference. The mattress in the master bedroom had this thick foam on top of the mattress that was way too soft that we sunk down in it and there was absolutely no support.We expect to sleep on a good mattress and not a foam topper. That’s just us. We would stay here again if the mattress was a regular mattress and not covered with a foam topper with no support. Other than that, this place was perfect. Nice porches, nice open kitchen and living areas. Loved the large round table in the dining area.

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: This was the second year that we rented this home. We have been comign to Morgan Town for the last 10 years we have stayed at several lovely homes but we just love this house. I usually have to do some work even on vacation and I love that this home has a little alcove with a desk on the 2nd floor that I can work quietly from even if I have to get on a zoom call. This house is fully stocked with utensils pots pans cooking supplies and coffee filters. It is the perfect home for our family and our two dogs love laying out on the deck in the sun. The walk to the beach is really short and you have a pretty good view of the ocean. We just love this house and will continue to stay here when we do our annual visit to Morgan Town. The property management for this home is also awesome!!

Memorable stay at Tranquility on the Shore!

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: Our first stay in Morgantown exceeded all expectations! We spent a delightful three-day weekend at Tranquility on the Shore and couldn't have asked for a better time. The house itself is charming and thoughtfully stocked with everything you might need. The open floor plan seamlessly connecting the living room, kitchen and dining area was ideal for us and our beloved fur babies.One of the highlights was undoubtedly the back decks where we sipped morning coffee and enjoyed evening cocktails while taking in the breathtaking Gulf views. The primary suite was not only incredibly spacious, but also exceptionally comfortable. All the bathrooms were spotless and generously supplied with fresh linens. The plantation shutters throughout the entire home added a delightful touch of beachy vibes.Access to the dog friendly beach was a breeze, just a short walk or golf cart ride away from the home. We spent our days rejuvenating at the beach, soaking up the sun, catching glimpses of dolphins and feeling grateful for the simple pleasures of life. We enjoyed all the amenities Morgantown had to offer, from the community pools to the pickleball and tennis courts. The area's tranquility and serenity were truly a treasure.While our stay was nearly flawless, we did encounter a minor issue with the air conditioning. However, the rental company's swift response and resolution within just a couple of hours, even on a Saturday evening, left us truly impressed. Coastal View Vacations and their staff were a pleasure to work with, making everything incredibly smooth.Our stay was incredible and we're already looking forward to returning for another visit!
