Great family friendly home!

We stayed with 7 of our family! The home was very clean and stocked with all the needed essentials and the beds were comfortable. We loved the neighborhood and driving the golf cart to the pool and beach! Our only complaint was the propane grill did not heat up properly and took a long time to grill our burgers. Overall, we would highly recommend!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is nice. Plenty of space. However, the 2nd ice machine barely works. The grill was so dirty, we had to have someone come clean it as it was a fire hazard. Seems like the resort is going through some construction. We had construction crew outside our house for several days.

In our recent visit, we only left the property once in six days... tho much is available to see, do, and eat within 20 minutes of the property. We love coming and are ready to return!

Loved the golfcart, beach umbrellas, large dining table, comfortable beds, and location very near one of the pools. Management was very kind and accomodating on more than one issue. Overall, a great vacation was had by all. Although we were made well aware of the insufficient parking, it wasn't the best situation to park a car off the complex. But we knew it going in, so on us.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My extended family rented this lovely home along with Coconut Caberet for Thanksgiving. The home was beautiful,clean and well located. We took advantage of the heated pool, the 6 person golf cart and of course, the lovely beach. The only downside were several items that were in disrepair: an upholstered chair, a broken toilet seat and a corner curio cabinet that had a sign indicating it was being repaired soon. ( The toilet seat was repaired after a phone call. Although these items should probably have been repaired before our stay, they did not detract from our enjoyment. We will return,

Lovely, well-kept home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week! We've been coming to Martinique for almost 18 years, and Crow's Nest is well-kept and suited our needs. The photos show one of the rooms on the second floor having twin beds. These have been replaced with a king bed. Also, there are exactly 10 bath towels in the entire house. That is not enough for a house that sleeps 12 people! There were two kitchen washrags and two drying towels. Again, for a week's stay in a large home, that is very insufficient. Otherwise, it's well-stocked.

Crow's Nest Martinique Fort Morgan

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time staying at Ft Morgan. Our daughter found this house at Martinique and it was perfect for our extended family of 10. 3 houses away from 1 pool and about 10 minute walk from the beach and 2nd pool. We had plenty of linens and the kitchen was well equipped. Nice to have laundry baskets and a drying rack. Plenty of extra beach toys in the garage and the gold cart was so helpful for all. I do have 2 suggestions: please sharpen the kitchen knives and add more silverware. We always eat in all our meals. We were constantly washing silverware to have enough. The knives were very dull.
