We had a multigenerational vacation. The house was very comfortable and lived in, not a new build, which is what we were looking for with younger children. The distance to the beach was the easiest, closest walk we have had since coming to the area 7/8 years ago. Having a pool, while shared with the other side of the duplex, just outside the back door was awesome. The kids enjoyed the waves and sand at the beach, but equally liked swimming in the pool while siblings were napping. The house was stocked with anything you would need for a week at the beach. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to booking again in the future.

We had a blast staying at this property. It was perfect size for our family. It had everything we needed and some. The pool was perfect and was even better since we did not have to share it with anyone during our trip. Plenty of chairs to sit on the deck by the pool. We loved having the patio on both floors. The beach is just a short walk from house. My son loved fishing on the pier every day. It was the perfect spot for our family vacation. We can’t wait until next year!

Annual family trip
We have been coming to Ft. Morgan every summer for vacation. This house fell below our price range we wanted to spend for the week with extra rooms and a pool and close to beach access. We loved our stay at the house . It was so nice to have all the room to spread for privacy if needed but to have an area big enough to get together in if needed. The walk to the beach was easy as we make a whole day of it and our husbands and sons fish off the beach so we have quite the set up to carry to the beach. This was one of the easiest beach access we have used

0 out of 10 would recommend Family Waves. It was dirty upon arrival. The air conditioning did not cool the house to below 78 degrees for 3 days. There was food underneath one of the beds that caused ants in the bed. Accessing the house initially was problematic and the rep at aqua waves was ugly and condescending when it turned out that she did not know enough about the property to help with accessing it. We were promised for 3 days in a row that someone would come out to assess the air conditioning situation. No one came and on the 4th day we were advised that they were actually aware of the situation and it was the result of the lack of fulfillment of the maintenance contract which only made it more frustrating since it was clear that they were aware of the situation and still allowed guests. There was so much sand under the sofa it made you think that it could not have possibly had cleaning underneath for weeks or months. Upon checkout conversation to

Absolutely wonderful house layout and location for our large family. Pool was a great addition to the week. Quick walk to the beach plus being able to rent a tent and leave beach chairs on the beach was very handy. House was clean and comfortable. Several places in home could use some general maintenance like painting, etc but did not lessen the enjoyment of our stay. Our family said they would love to stay at this house again!

Needs Work
The location and set-up was great. (We traveled with friends in the house next door). The house needed work and updating. The pool deck needs repair. The children got splinters and stubbed toes. There was a terrible musty odor in the house (especially the tower). The washer and dryer only worked occasionally. There was not a skillet in the house and the freezer ruined some of the things we put in there because it did not freeze consistently (and it was not overstocked). The furniture in the living room was nice; however, it did not work properly. For a house with so much potential, it could use some TLC.

Great for large group
Plenty of space, very short walk to beach path (basically across street). Pool was great to have also. Decks could use some replaced boards.

Nice house close to the beach
The house was nice, had plenty of space and was close to the beach access. The pool was great, not many houses have pools so this was something we specifically looked for when planning. The pool is semi-private and shared with the house next door. The listing says “private” but that’s not accurate. Fortunately we had decent neighbors and I think we both tried to be neighborly and it ended up being fine.
The house is surface clean but really needs a good deep cleaning. We had a major ant issue - found ants in one of the bedrooms, a bathroom and all over the kitchen.
The beds were mostly comfortable. The pullout in the tower was awful. Luckily we had kids in that bed but an adult would have been miserable.
Overall we had a great trip.

This house has so much potential but has been neglected for some time. There is no shower in the master bedroom and made for none of the adults couples to really want that room. Seemed like such a waste. The furniture is dated and worn. The whole house is in major need of a deep clean and the kitchen is in need of organizing. Some minor maintenance and fresh carpet/paint could make a major improvement. The location is great for beach goers as it’s literally just a 2 minute walk however it’s about half hour to get to town but there are a few restaurants and a General Dollar near by. The pool is a nice feature also. We had a minor issue when we arrived but they were very quick to remedy that. I also found it strange there were no beach chairs or umbrellas provided for a beach vacation house. We flew in so that would have been nice. Over all I would suggest this rental. 11 people (ages 13-57) in total and we all had a great time!

A Real Getaway
20 yrs old but well maintained. No shower in the master bath, but big tub. All other bathrooms had showers. Lots of up and down the stairs, not ideal for 80 yr olds. But it is very near the beach. Very "trusting" neighbors, everybody just left chairs, umbrellas, etc. right on the sand overnight! All the wifi, etc. was first class. Son-n-law was able to use Zoom for meetings easily.
