Great beach house!

We had a wonderful few days at Maw-Maw’s! The accommodations were excellent, both indoor and outdoor, and we were able to unwind with our pups without any issues or headaches. This is a great rental!

The best week!

My family of 7 enjoyed our week at Maw Maw’s beach house so much! I honestly do not have any complaints, the house was clean and pretty much had everything we needed that we didn’t bring ourselves! We loved sitting on the patio and taking in the scenery as well as having stores close by if we needed extras!

Our 5th stay at Mawmaw’s Beach House

As always the house was clean, comfortable, dog friendly and well equipped. My friend and I come with 3 big dogs. There are 2 large decks perfect for dog drying and a shower below for dog washing. It is perfect and Cheryle is always helpful.

Clean roomy perfect location

We booked this trip almost last minute and needed 2 houses next to each other to sleep a whole lot of people. Cheryle came through…. Super communication before during and after and made any anxietys about the house or check in non existent. These places have everything you need and then some as everyone who comes through there keeps donating stuff for the next group which we did as well. Do not being any beach stuff as there is ample amount of stuff for everyone . This place will not disappoint clean quiet and stores for basic needs within 10 minutes. Definately will be back! Thanks Cheryle you were great

Always our go to on vacation.

The area is peaceful, we wouldn’t go anywhere else. The house has everything you need and more. Cheryle is a wonderful person to rent from. We’ve been coming back to her houses for years now. I think this is the fifth time we’ve rented from her. Our fur babies got to come on vacation too. I wouldn’t have it any other way, leaving them at home I would be worried sick. Just wished we could stay longer and more often than we do. Fort Morgan is always beautiful, peaceful and away from crowds.

Absolutely perfect

This little beach house afforded us the most perfect vacation ever! It was about a football field length from a gorgeous beach with very few other people. The house was so well stocked, it had everything. And it was dog friendly, as well as the beach. Cheryle was a great host. We will definitely be back

Perfect beach house

Our stay at Maw Maws beach house was perfect. I have stayed at many properties over the years in the Gulf Shores/Ft.Morgan area, but this by far is the best. This is our 3rd time renting this home, and won't be the last. Cheryle is the perfect host, she truly cares about the people who rent her home, and she only wants the best for us. The house has 2 covered decks, one in front and one in the back. Unfortunately the first week we stayed tropical storm Francine hit, but having the decks to sit on still allowed us to enjoy the beautiful views, even in the rain. Thank you Cheryle for being such a gracious host.

Perfect Getaway

The house was just as described! We had everything we could possibly need. This was our first stay in Ft. Morgan and we loved the peace and quiet. The house is a short walk from the beach and you can hear the waves from the large covered front porch. There was plenty of room for all four of us and my dog Daisy made the porch her favorite spot to soak up the sun. Cheryl was very sweet and accommodating. I highly recommend this wonderful place to stay and hope to return very soon!

Perfect house

For 3 ladies and their dogs, this was perfect. Set up perfectly to shower dogs below then air dry them on the deck. Keeps house cleaner and easy to do. Washer/ dryer make packing lighter. Even the neighbors are all friendly at the remote end of Ft Morgan. My 4th stay.

Spring Break 2023

Pleasantly surprised by spacious feel of this beach house. Despite the stated smallish sq. footage, it never felt cramped & provided breathing room for 3 adults + 1 medium dog. Overall clean property but couch had off-odor that we noticed the 1st night. It improved with Febreeze provided in house supplies, which were much better stocked than other places we've stayed .
