I wanted to take a moment to do a quick review on the beach house we recently stayed at. We understood prior to arrival that it had been recently remodeled, however it beyond exceeded our expectations. It was stunning and the location was absolutely perfect. We did notice that one screen door had just been replaced, but the actual screen had not. The other screen door needs the screen better installed because the wind blew it and I was able to put it back in tack. The only...and I say only thing was that the grill didn't have propane. I went and switched the tanks, so it's full now. Those things are minor, very minor. Overall, we would definitely rate this experience a 10/10! On the day of arrival I did call to see about a possible early check-in and Abby was extremely customer service friendly, you need to retain more staff like her. The purpose of this trip wasn't to just take a vacation, but to take time away with the family from the recent loss of my father in law & mother in law who passed 3 weeks apart 3 months ago.This house gave us a start in the healing process to make memories they would want. (Gulf Shores was their favorite place and they visited yearly) I deeply thank you all for the excellent experience from start to finish. Again, the home & location is stunning and we will be looking to book the exact house next year! Feel free to add this experience on any other platform.

This is a great location if you love the beach. The beach is right down the stairs. Short walk to the water. Beach is beautiful and not over crowded. The house had everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this house to everyone! It's a perfect getaway!

We LOVE Harris Property. We have been using them for 10 plus years - all in Fort Morgan with the one exception of Gulf Shores. We love Fort Morgan. We had a great stay - the shower stalls are very small, but not really a problem. Harris Property responds quickly with any problems - including getting a new dishwasher during our stay. The Harris people are extremely nice. We will continue to use Harris. Thanks for providing us with a wonderful stay!!!!!!

We stayed at This'll Do this past weekend and had the most relaxing time! We were greeted with a group dolphins jumping out in the water and the most beautiful sunset. I highly recommend this property or any other of the Harris Vacation Rental properties for a great stay.

Great open space. Great view and wonderful being on the beach. I wish there was a broom indoor and outdoor to help deal with sand. And a hose at the bottom instead of just a spicket. That way it would be easier with sand. These are all minor considering this place was amazing. DEFINITELY WILL RECOMMEND

Best Vacation Ever

by Paige
Closest we have ever stayed to the Beach! Didn't even need to tote a cooler down , we were so close. Will definitely stay here again.

Great Location - Excellent views. This house isn't just at the beach, it's ON the beach. At certain tides the water is right at the deck pilings. Back deck is the massive and inviting. Kitchen is stock with all the amenities and the WiFi and cable TV worked great. There's a wonderful restaurant / grocery store within walking distance. Simply put, this place has it all. The Harris team goes the extra mile to accommodate their guests.

Sits right on the beach

by Caroline
Step off the deck and you are ON the beach. No walking across any streets or through other properties. Nope. You're already there. Really enjoyed the very large deck which provided a perfect view of the water, sand, and sunrise/sunsets. Would definitely book this house again.

The house is right on the beach and water with an excellent deck. Being pet friendly was a big plus too as I was able to bring my dog and take him on beach walks. House was well equipped with everything you could need to be comfortable.

Amazing

by Billy
The stay was amazing. Had everything we needed already provided. The view was gorgeous. The only downside was our original code did not work so we had to call to get a new code but the process of getting g a new one was easy. Will definitely rent from them again!

Well, I'm back home from Gulf Shores. Stayed at the This'll Do this past weekend. Such a charming, awesome little beachfront home. Completely remodeled inside, super clean, great open layout. Loved spending time on the newly built deck where I had a continuous breeze from sun up to sundown. Loved so much decided to stay an extra day once I got there. Just didn't want to leave!

Best family trip ever

by Carly
This was the best family trip we have ever had together. We rented This'll do and That"ll do. The houses were very nice, clean and hospitable . The views were breath taking. There was something for every age level. From my three year old niece to my sixty-eight year old dad.. We didn't just rent a beach house for a vacation we made memories that will last a life time. We are already planning next years trip back to Fort Morgan. Thanks a million Harris Rental Properties. Carly

Peaceful stay

by Kelly
My Husband and I stayed here with our fur baby. It was so peaceful to wake up each morning and have a cup of coffee while having a front row seat to the beach. Even the living area gave us amazing beach front views. It was partially secluded perhaps due to the season but we had an amazing time. It was much needed. Highly recommend a stay Here

I you want a perfect place on the beach, This'll Do, for sure!

by Norman
This beach house and it's twin "That'll Do" are both within a frisbee throw of the sea. In high summer you'll get the sunrise and the sunset from your deck. We saw dolphins playing in the surf every morning and pelicans dive bombing the sea constantly. It is heaven. They are probably the last two houses to resist the "tear down and remodel" bug that has hit the rest of the beach, so be prepared for charming comfort instead of hi-tech luxury. Everything was clean and functional, though. Wifi was fast and easy to connect to, TV had a decent amount of channels to choose from, bring your own stereo if you need music. With Sassy Bass within walking distance, you don't even have to worry about the long trek to Gulf Shore supermarkets to stock up the fridge. They sell everything you need and have a cocktail bar and restaurant, if you don't feel like cooking at all. We were a little concerned having read some recent reviews citing the state of repair and decoration as being substandard, but the house has either been recently decorated throughout and given new window treatments; or the reviewers were grinding an ax because of some other issue. The deck is weathered and rustic - if you can't handle that, then maybe you would be more comfortable at one of the resorts, with the rest of the herd. Be careful when arriving at the house for the first time, the hard standing driveway does not extend all the way to the house, and you will need a 4X4 to navigate the sand. We hope to make this an annual booking. The weather, location and accommodation were exactly what we needed. Note: Norman, thanks for your kind comments about This'll do. You are right, this is a charming little beach bungalow, nothing fancy but we have guests like yourself that love it, year after year! The driveway ends about 35 feet from the house (it gets eaten away by high tides). Hope to see you here again soon! Brian Harris

WONDERFUL TIME

by Tracy
We really enjoyed our stay. Loved being so close to the beach. Thank you for allowing us to bring our beloved pet. She had so much fun. It was her first trip to the ocean. We arrived late and with our poor eyesight we overshot the drive way and ended up in the sand. We called a Tow Truck to get us out. $200 I would suggest putting up a barrier or fence at the end of the driveway. An information book with local attractions and places to eat would have been really nice to have. Thank you!

The Great Little Getaway!!!

by Darren
I was really impressed with the beach house and location. Nothing more satisfying than waking up to the sound of waves roving back and forth. And ohhh yeah don't forget the sunrise... absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for the great weekend.

Amazing! Very relaxing and quite.

by Lorenza
We stayed for Spring Break 2013 and the house was perfect and the beach was clean and beautiful! I would recommend "That'll Do" to friends and family and all other properties. Very relaxing and quite.

Excellent location truly on the beach!

by Yung-Mei
We loved this place, very clean, right on the beach, had everything we needed. The deck was great to watch the sunrise! Just be careful if you come late and night and it's dark - the driveway is not well lit and we ended up in the sand! Manager's Note: Yung-Mei, I am so sorry that it was dark when you arrived and that you got stuck. There is a street light that is out that are working to get fixed so that future renters will not have that same issue. Brian

Any closer to the beach and you'll be in the water!

by K
If you like the beach, you can't get any closer than this house! The location is out away from the condo crowds (you don't have all of the crowding issues on the beach)! Its location is still close enough to Gulf Shores attractions that it is not an issue (20 min drive). This house is perfect for 2 families with children. Plenty of room for everybody!
