The host of this property was very responsive during the booking process and during our stay. They addressed anything that came up in a satisfactory manner. The house was in great shape and was a great fit for my family. Parking was very close to the house we rented. The house was large enough to accomodate my family of 6. The on-site pool was also great. My family and I really enjoyed our stay there.

Nice getaway
Nice quiet location, easy to get to the beach by mile walk or easy drive. Hot tub/pool were nice for the evening. House was fine and bigger than it looked from the pictures. Could use some updating here and there as a few things are getting worn. Could also use a deep cleaning. Overall it was good and I’d go back.

Fall break family trip
My family of six traveled to Fort Morgan with my in-laws (total of 8) over fall break. The property was well-maintained and had everything we needed. David was kind and easy to work with. The unit has everything you need, but the appliances are a bit dated. Still, everything worked and we had a great trip.

Almost too hard to leave
Great cottage within a short 1/2 mile walk to the beach. We have a family of 6 and made the walk easily every day, sometimes twice. Plenty of room for all of us to spread out, especially the dual bunk beds were a great touch. The cottage is toward the back of the Rookery so there wasn’t any traffic passing, it was very quiet.

Enjoyable getaway
The cottage was as advertised. Stayed in the same community last year. Enjoyed the stay more this year in this property than the other one last year. Clean, comfortable and affordable. Perfect quiet stay. Good sized pool. Close to anything you would want to do while visiting. Well worth the money. Places like "Comfort Cove" make vacations possible again in today's time. Great host.

Quiet and Cozy
We absolutely loved this cottage! We've stayed at the Rookery before, but the location of this cottage felt very private and was unbelievably quiet and relaxing. Check-in was very easy and the owners reached out to us the evening of our stay and again the next day to make sure we were comfortable. Owners also gave some very useful info prior to our arrival that made our first night that much easier. We can't wait to go back b/c it honestly felt like home for my family...we will absolutely book this cottage again in the future!

Great stay
Overall the place was nicely decorated, clean, and welcoming. They even provided beach chairs, inflatables, and buckets for the sand. They also had games that we played on rainy days. The community grills and pool location was very handy. We enjoyed walking down to the beach every morning before it got too busy. We also loved sitting in the screened in porch while it rained. Great stay overall.

Great Location. Perfect for families with small children. Very peaceful.
Everything was great except that we were unaware that we would be staying in a duplex. No problem since no one was staying in the other half. Also there were pool rules posted but no one was following them. Lots of alcohol and smoking around our young kids. Great location and host was fantastic !

Fun weekend getaway
We had a great time staying at Comfort Cove! It was cute and it was the perfect space for our 2 families staying there. The boys especially loved the bunk room! The pool was nearby, plus we rented a golf cart to drive to the beach. There were some issues with the AC, but the owner sent someone to check it out right away and offered to deliver us popsicles and ice cream to cool us off! We enjoyed ourselves!

Perfect Family Getaway
We had a great (albeit short) end of school getaway! House had everything we needed and more. Kids loved the bunk room and pool area! Rented a golf cart and went to beach daily and saw bunnies all over property which the kids also loved. House had everything we needed and we really got to relax and unwind after a crazy school year! Hosts were very attentive informative. Will stay again!
