We have stayed in Fort Morgan many other times but this was our 1st time in the Rookery and we will definitely be back! We loved the Hello Sunshine cottage! It was clean, the beds were so comfortable and the kids loved the bunk room! It was one of the only places we’ve stayed that had stuff in the pantry you could use like spices, ziplock bags, sugar, etc! That was a nice surprise! They also had board games that the kids played and books to read! My only suggestion would be to add a clothes line to hang towels on either on the porch or outside somewhere! ##### Jenny F.
