House old but in ok shape. Should have been warned about house construction next door and would not have committed. Construction noice all day from 8am to 5 pm took away any enjoyment sitting outside on decks! Expected better!

Clean and spacious for our two families. Outdoor shower was great, especially with the beach and kids. Have to cross a busy highway to go to beach but it isn’t far to walk. Dryer and mattresses could use updating. Overall for the price it was quite nice! Loved Gulf Shores and can’t wait to come back.

Great house
The house was very nice and in a quiet area. We had a couple issues that were addressed promptly. Very comfortable stay for my family. Would definitely stay again. My only complaint would be that there's not enough outdoor lighting. Could use some more facing the back yard, and the motion lights under the house didn't say on long at all. So it was very dark when taking the dog out at night. Had a great trip!

Spunky Sandpiper getaway!
My family of 7 and my inlaws enjoyed our stay at the Spunky Sandpiper and our visit to the Fort Morgan area. The location is great and a short walk to the bay or beach. Great outdoor space for throwing the football or letting your furbabies run. The beach is beautiful, lots of sandcastle making, jumping waves and walks to the point where the fort is. The house has plenty of space for entertaining inside or outside, we enjoyed lots of early coffee mornings and quiet evenings sitting on the front or back decks. Even better the surrounding neighbors had lots of great suggestions for food or play and just overall friendly. We enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to visit again!

Good time
The property was beautiful and the amount of beds and tvs for our family was perfect. However things weren’t as clean as expected. Not dirty but not super clean there’s splatters and such in the kitchen. One of the bedroom sinks didn’t drain well. Things listed as there at the house were inaccurate, there was no keurig only a drip coffee maker. Not a big deal, but should update the list. There was dry dog poop on the back porch, there was also a large spot in the back porch which needs to be fixed for safety. I would stay here again, it is a beautiful house and quiet neighborhood with good access to the beach and bay!! Thank you!

We enjoy visiting Fort Morgan we are from a small town and its great for us! We have stayed at this property before short walk to the beach, away from all the hustle of Gulf Shores but still near everything in Gulf Shores for shopping and enjoyment of your vacation! The house like before had everything we needed and enough space for 10 of us to enjoy and not be on top of each other!

The entire process was a breeze, from check in to check out, we loved the location it was quiet and a nice walk to the beach, we had the best time. The only downfall was that we had to leave. We will definitely be booking here again.

Great stay
Spent 3 nights and 2 full days. The real beach is across the highway, just a short walk and the crossing traffic is light. The house is great and has pretty much everything you need (although I would pack cleaning supplies just to augment what's at the house and avoid having to make a supply trip). Had a great trip, would highly recommend!

Not what we expected
This was only our 2nd time staying at a VRBO house. This one was found lacking.The bds in the 3rd bedroom weren't made. The sheets were tied into plastic bags and left on the beds (except one set, which was under the TV table). What made this completely unacceptable is that exchange students won't complain when something is amiss, so i didn’t even know this until we were leaving and I asked them to strip their beds. In the kitchen things seemed 'just a little broken '; the bottom shelf in the fridge is cracked so the drawers don't fit, ice cube trays were cracked and the ice cube overflow tray is cracked Towels were threadbare and even though they warn that they only supply one trash bag per receptacle, they were the cheapest out there, making them useless. The toilet in one bathroom was very dirty, the shower in the other had to be wiped down before we could use it, pillows in the master and third bedrooms were dirty. One pillow was was actually sticky. I even had to sweep floors before id walk on the floors. I didn't bring an animal with me, but I had to clean up after them. Lastly, i do NOT recommend this house if you have toddlers. The porches (especially the back deck) are in such bad shape that i cut my foot on a nail and many slivers were removed from feet. Though the house was an embarrassment, the porch furniture and the views are amazing! Plz leave adequate cleaning supplies and condiments for future guests, it'll go a long way in repeat business.

Pleasantly Surprised!!
This house made for a relaxing weekend. Everything we could have possibly needed was provided. I brought my own fan because I like to have white noise to sleep. To my surprise; the owner had fans in every bedroom closet. This was great for my sister and mom since they didn’t bring one. This home was vey roomy and had plenty of sleeping space. The rooms were very nice and the back balcony had a great view of the bay.
