Highly recommend! The beach house is barely a minute walk to the beach. Access to your own pool is great. The interior was nice and clean. This is a great place for a vacation. The only thing missing was provided beach necessities such as umbrellas and chairs.

The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our nine day stay. The bedrooms were roomy enough for everyone. The pool was an excellent added bonus! The walk to the beach was only one or two minutes. The outdoor shower saved us so much time with sand clean up. My little dog loved it too! We cannot wait to come back next year.

Rental was very clean and good for a single family. Location is great 100 yards and your on the uncrowded beach. Harris Vacations made the whole rental, check-in and check-out process simple and easy, I would definitely book this rental again.

Every beach house we have rented from Harris has been great. Keep It Simple was our family\'s favorite!! The house is beautiful and being so close to beach was the best. We will always rent from Harris!

Perfect low key location and house was so clean and very nice. A quick walk to the beach and no crowds. A few places nearby to eat, but definitely not the chaos of orange beach or gulf shores. If you’re looking for a nice, quiet location, this is it!

June 2, 2023 - Google

The house was clean and decorated nicely. It had everything we needed and only a short distance from the beach, which was beautiful and felt private even during the busy season. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We loved the house and the location! Going to Fort Morgan was really cool to see. Weather was a little chilly while there, but we were still able to enjoy some time on the beautiful beach! We definitely Kept It Simple while there.

We have used Harris vacation rentals for the last 3 years in Fort Morgan and we have never been disappointed. We love the Fort Morgan beaches. We stayed at Keep it Simple this year for our family vacation. It was a very short walk to beach which is what we always look for when we rent. The house was very clean and beautifully decorated. Loved the outside shower and patio downstairs. We brought our own cooking set up for a shrimp boil and it was perfect to do that outside downstairs. We highly recommend Harris Properties

Our stay at “Keep It Simple” was wonderful. The beach house was very clean and spacious for our needs. We enjoyed how close it was to the beach and the extras provided for us, things we didn't have or know we needed. We are looking forward to coming back soon. I would highly recommend using Harris Vacation Rentals. They were easy to book with concise instructions every step of the way.

Harris Properties provided top notch service by text and email before arrival. We stayed at “Keep it Simple” and it was great. Close walk to the beach, house was very clean and had all the necessities for a great vacation. Would highly recommend this rental company!

Enjoyed our vacation. House was very clean and well stocked with everything you need. It was a very short walk to the beach and a nice view from the porch.

The property was in excellent condition when we arrived. Very clean and it was stocked with everything we needed and more. From kitchen supplies to beach supplies. It was a very short walk to a nice local beach. While the water was too cold for the adults, the kids were having a blast everyday. They really enjoyed the beach toys in the storage room and we loved the beach wagon that helped haul them and the chairs that were provided. Overall, it was a wonderful stay that we will keep in mind. The property is a 30 min drive from large chain businesses/grocery stores but it isn't a deal breaker by any means. Highly recommend this place!

Great stay in great home called Keep It Simple. Home is recent build. Located about 150 feet from Gulf of Mexico and with great views. Immaculately cleaned. Every item to make your stay great was provided. Harris Vacation Rentals and the home owners can be quite proud.

House was very clean had a great floor plan and the beds were very comfortable. This house being a new build gave the home a nice feel especially in Fort Morgan where you can run into old homes that need updating and cleaning. We had 4 adults and our two dogs and this house was a perfect setup with plenty of room for all of us. It was just a easy short 3-5 min walk to the beach. There is a downstairs closet where you can lockup and store your beach stuff and there is a downstairs fully functioning shower with hot water. This was very nice to have.

Loved it!

by Lindsey
Great little house in a good spot! Short walk to the beach. House very clean! Fort Morgan itself is limited with food options, etc - but if you're willing to drive 20-30 min, it's not a big deal at all!

Delightful property & beach getaway

by Larry
Keep It Simple was exactly what we were looking for. Private, easy walking distance to an uncrowded beach, and peaceful. KIS is just 5 houses from the dune/beach access. Front deck is great spot to watch & listen to the ocean. Covered parking for 2 vehicles. 2 handy outdoor conveniences: a short hose at bottom of steps for washing off your feet upon return and a private outdoor shower that is really helpful. The small storage area with beach toys/boogie boards is an appreciative touch. Also, house is just 4 min from the Dauphin Island/Ft. Morgan ferry dock. Fantastic property! Highly recommended.

The house is beautiful, has everything you would need for a relaxing stay. Walk to beach is easy and short distance right out of driveway. The beach is very relaxing not over crowded. Sleeping arrangements are perfect. Keep it simple house. Is just that.

Family Spring Break

by Benjamin
This house was an absolutely perfect beach getaway. We had three young children and two adults and fit in the space well. The dining area is a bit tight but we made it work. There's a picnic table and plenty of outdoor seating! Kitchen comes well stocked. Our kids loved the massive amounts of sand toys and the beach wagon was an awesome perk too! 2 min walk down the stairs and to the beach. Keep in mind, it is a bit of a drive (30 mins) to get back into the town (gulf shores) for big grocery shopping. But we found that we really didn't need/want to leave Fort Morgan much...it offers nice dining options and cute little grocery options! The house was a perfect beach getaway! Highly recommend

Perfect Family Beach Getaway

by Katie
This house has it all for a family beach getaway- steps to the beach, sand area in the backyard, picnic table, an outdoor shower, an outdoor fridge, a bunk room and more! The home also had everything you would need for the beach with chairs, a canopy, a wagon and beach toys! All of these items are such a bonus when traveling with kids. On a holiday weekend, we practically had the beach to ourselves. We had 3 adults and 2 kids, and we all comfortably fit in the home. The kitchen and living area was a perfect size. The brand new home was very clean and we felt very safe in the midst of a pandemic. The backyard was perfect with the sand, grill, driveway and side yard. It had all of the outdoor necessities for a wonderful beach house weekend. We loved "Keep It Simple" although there was nothing simple about it...it has everything you need and more! The kitchen is stocked with every essential item. The neighbors are very friendly. We had great communication with the property management group. We absolutely loved our stay on this property and would highly recommend this home!

Our initial reservations for a beach house was canceled due to hurricane Sally. Harris Properties moved us to a different beach house in order to keep us in the Fort Morgan area. The house they moved us to was brand, decor was really nice and very close to the beach. We enjoyed our stay tremendously. I have used Harris Properties now for about 4-5 years and have always been happy with them.

This house was very nice and clean. Keep it simple is exactly what they did. Has everything you need. The outside shower with hot water is a nice feature. My favorite part of this home is being so close to the beach you can hear the sound of the waves. Such a short walk to the beach it's easy to set up for the day.

We were so excited about our family vaction and that we had found a house on the beach, pet friendly and a location that would allow us to bring and park our boat for the duration of the trip. Unfortunatly, because of Hurricane Sally, we had to cancel our trip. Harris Properties did and excellent job communicating with us on a daily basis. At first, our trip was postponed to see what the storm was going to do, then eventually we had to cancel. Harris Properties was professional, quick to respond to all of our inquiries, promptly refunded our money and they will be the very FIRST call that I make next time I plan a family vacation.

Lovely Little Beach Home

by Melissa
This house was spotless and brand new! The out door shower is an amazing experience and it really is a 30 second walk to the beach. The rooms/ space was a little smaller than the photos online make it seem, but for four friends it was fine. I had originally thought about bringing my family but the kids would have been on top of each other, so I'm glad it worked out to be four adults. The furniture and appliances were in great condition. I cannot say enough great things about this home. The street is quiet, and I know this for sure because I've stayed in other houses on this street as well. Highly recommend this house for 3-4 people.

Home is located on a dead end street. Walk to the beach was about 5 min. Very short walk. We enjoyed cooking out and spending time with family. Very relaxing vacation.

House was petty, looked to have been updated recently. Everything was clean. Big plus-- House on dead-end street with very little traffic.... One small issue was the one bathroom did not want to flush very good. Overall, we would book again.
