Fantastic beach house!
Review Submitted: July 22, 2009
Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed in Shipwatch North the first week of July, and we loved it! It was actually our second time to stay there, and we could very well return again.
We had a group of 3 families (6 adults, 6 kiddos) plus an additional adult. We were definitely not cramped. We spread the adults (and one of the younger kids) among 4 of the bedrooms, and let 5 of the kids sleep in the room with the bunk beds, using the upstairs rollaway bed that easily fit into the bunk room. There was plenty of space for all.
The house is in excellent condition. Hardwood floors all around, and plenty of furniture for everyone. There is a normal-sized dining table, plus a large folding table you can pull out for the whole crowd.
The downstairs deck's value cannot be overemphasized. We had a blowup pool that we put down there for the younger kids, out of the sun (under the house!) and free from jellies on those bad days.
The biggest selling point of the house, though, is by far the location!!! There is a single house between it and the beach. It's literally about a 30 or 40 yard walk to the beach, at most. No hauling stuff back and forth! You can leave your stuff on the beach.... at Fort Morgan, we have never had any trouble with anyone messing with our stuff. It's truly a fantastic place for families that like a little room.
Oh, and Tacky Jack's 2 is about a mile away.... great food.
I highly recommend this property.... just don't steal our week away the next time we are planning a trip!
