A Great Place for a Family Reunion
We had two sets of families so having a separation between the two floors was a nice feature of the site. The kitchen area downstairs did not have a stove but we had a Blackstone Griddle that we set up on the wooden table under the carport for cooking breakfast in the morning. The commercial ice maker was the best feature of the beach house. The washer and dryer were large capacity and came in handy for beach towels and the kids' daily laundry. The upstairs kitchen was very well-stocked with pots and pans, utensils, and dishes. The commercial coffee pot maker was used every morning and kept the coffee cups filled for all our coffee drinkers. The owner was quick to respond to our needs. There were lots of beach toys and beach accessories to choose from the bin located by the outside hose and shower which was also a must for being at the beach.

Convenient, needs some work. Decent for the price.
We got settled in on check in day with 14 people after a full day of travel. We had a meal planned but needed a grill. The grill was just a mess. We had to take the food off and finish in the oven. We then discovered that one of the burners didn’t work.on the stove. We also had a shrimp boil planned but the giant pot was so disgusting that we couldn’t do it. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked. The extra ice machine was awesome. The gulf view was nice, but was ruined because the sliding door has failed and you cannot see through it. The shower head in the bathroom needs replacing. The deck could use sanding because we got splinters. There’s no sitting outside on the best part of the deck during rain because there’s no cover. After getting home I messaged to ask what the procedure was about an item that I thought could have been left behind. I also recommended that they spray the house because two people staying in one room had bites all over them. There were also ants (biting painful ants) under the carport (probably due to the placement of trash cans) and we had a lot of tears from children. All of this and I never received a response after the lost item question. A little maintenance would go along way on this house. We really had a fantastic week, but this one needs lots of work.

House was not very clean. Mold growing on the vents, heavy dust on fans, under dresser in bedroom looks like enough hair to grow your own pet. Don’t understand why the beds are not made we had to make them when we arrived. Understand that you need to start dishwasher but to be required to put the dishes away before leaving is a bit much. I think it is rude to ask for a tip for cleaning. Overall the house was roomy enough for the number of people we had. Access to beach was ok but you do have to walk about a block and half to access.

About the host

Hosted by Janet Brittain

Host profile image
Neal and Janet have been in the property management and construction business since the early 80's. Janet currently has a business managing over 800 single family homes in NE Alabama, where they live. She is an Army brat whose father was a helicopter pilot stationed primarily in the SE. She graduated high school in Alexandria, VA and has a Finance degree from Jacksonville State University in Alabama. Neal has lived in Calhoun County, AL his entire life and graduated high school in Alexandria, AL. Neal's master carpentry skills and Janet's love for all things real estate make them the perfect team. They have 2 adult children, a yellow Lab and lots of brothers and sisters that love to spend time at Brittains' Beacon. Neal is a true outdoorsman. He and Janet's 4 brothers love floundering out front, fishing the bay for trout, sea bass, and deep sea fishing. Janet and the ladies mostly enjoy sunbathing on the deck and the beach.

Why they chose this property

What we love about our location is that the beaches are uncrowded. The Fort Morgan area has regulated against numerous multiunit condos thus keeping the beach population down. We were drawn to our specific property because of its elevation. We are 27 feet up on a dune giving us a spectacular view of the gulf and still a short walk to the beach. The size of our home is the perfect fit for our family gatherings and yours too!

What makes this property unique

The openness of the main living area into the kitchen and dining area with the vaulted ceiling and glass doors at the front allows for 18 people to be all in one space and not feel crowded. The double Bunn coffee maker is a huge hit with our large groups. Even though we are across the street from the beach you can easily watch the beach fun from the deck or even inside the living room. We can be at the Kitchen Island making pan cakes and see dolphin or schools of fish hitting out front. This usually ends in a stampede to the deck and sometimes to fishing poles and the beach. :0
