These amenities include two pools, a covered gazebo, a hot tub, tennis courts, a community grilling area with picnic tables, and convenient access to world-class golf courses. While the beach is just a short walk or drive from the beach house, you'll find it challenging to match this combination of affordability, spaciousness, and amenities. Relax and unwind on your private screened porch, where you can enjoy the gentle breezes while rocking or swinging. The cottage is professionally decorated in soothing neutral colors, featuring comfortable beds, sofas, chairs, and beautiful pine floors. It's equipped with all the essentials for a delightful stay. You can watch your favorite movies or enjoy cable television in the family room and the king-sized master bedroom. Additional bedrooms include a queen guest room and a bunk room with one full bed and three twins. There's also a TV with a DVD player and free WIFI available for your entertainment. The Rookery is conveniently located just 0.4 miles from the pristine white sand beaches of the Fort Morgan peninsula. The adjacent wildlife refuge offers several easy trails that wind through sawgrass marshes and slash pine forests, providing opportunities to encounter over 500 different animal and bird species. The Fort Morgan Peninsula is part of the bird and butterfly migration route, making it a vibrant hub for birdwatching and butterfly enthusiasts. Historic Fort Morgan is only 4.5 miles from the cottage, and you can catch a ferry from there to Dauphin Island, where you'll find more walking trails and the Dauphin Island Sea Lab.

Then we get to the house finally and informed them of cockroaches on screened in porch, no pot holders, no skillets, ice maker wasn’t working and I registered two vehicles and they said only one. The house wasn’t very clean but since they said ok to my other problems I didn’t address that. ##### Diane R.
