Fort Morgan Cottage for Rent: Private, Romantic and Charming Beach Cottage (This one is Different!) - Property 144444

Description:: This cottage has a very romantic feel to it. It is tastefully appointed and has a warm, festive atmosphere. It is also very private, you have the beach to yourself on most days. All furnishings are brand new and we did not furnish it with the typical condo-style furniture. It has been owner-occupied for 7 years, which is evident by the landscaping and decor. Our cottage is perfect for the couple wanting to get away from the crowds in a special atmosphere. If you choose to stay here, I promise you will want to come again and again!
