The beach house was beautiful and very conveniently located. It was a few steps from the beach and the pool was a wonderful addition. The property owner was very quick to respond to any questions that we had. The beach was beautiful, clean, quiet, and family friendly.

Always a treat, never disappoints!

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here with several family members and are already planning our next stay. The place is spotless, beautifully decorated, and you will want for nothing aside from the food you want to bring. The new pool is excellent as well. Looking forward to our next stay!

GREAT TIME

Really enjoyed the quiet setting this place had to offer. The beach was not overflowing with multiple people and there was not the bustle of the big city. People were friendly and Fort Morgan was great. The home was wonderful and well stocked, communication with the owners were great. Thank you for a wonderful time

We loved the quiet, peaceful atmosphere of the location, and the ease and beauty of the home. It is steps from the beach, which made the back and forth with babies very easy. The home was well stocked with kitchen appliances, games, blankets, towels, and beach supplies! The host responded immediately every time and was so kind.

This was our second trip to the Salty Pelican Tuex. We absolutely love the location and the house. We have a large group of 3 families and the space is all we need. Great location away from it all but just a quick drive away. The owners are very accomodating and easy to reach. Thanks again Shae!!

We had a very small intimate wedding at this location and it could not have been more perfect!! The view, as well as the interior were absolutely beautiful. I think the pictures don’t do the house enough justice because it is gorgeous! Host was very friendly and informative. Would definitely recommend this house!

Amazing location

Shae was an amazing hostess. Wonderful communication throughout the entire stay. Couple things - very minor - would have been nice to have more drawer space in the bedrooms for storage of clothing and more chairs in the living room. But truly that didn’t take away from our beautiful experience. We adored her home!
