​General Information

​
Our homes (they are not just houses- they are completely furnished homes) normally rent on a weekly basis during the spring and summer season. Shorter rental periods are considered on an individual basis.  Arrival time is 3:00 p.m.- departure time is 10:00 a.m.

All of our homes are completely furnished with tableware, pots and pans, utensils, small and large appliances, including microwave, dishwasher, washer and dryer, towels, linens, and things you might need to enjoy your visit to the beach. We make every attempt to provide and have available for your use everything you will need for a relaxing, enjoyable stay, except food and consumables such as paper goods!

We attempt to keep some beach toys at each home for your use at the beach- however, these items are sometimes misplaced. Each home does have crab traps and bar-b-que grill- even a wagon for your use in getting all your beach items to and from the beach.

Each home has Wi-Fi.

Wastin' Away, Busy Doin’ Nothin’, and Castaway II are located side-by-side- all on Bernard Court East, a one block long paved street that extends south from Alabama Highway #180 and  dead ends onto the beach of the Gulf of Mexico. Our homes are located in the middle of this one-block long street. You do not have to walk great distances to gain public access to the beach- the beach is at the end of our street!
Are you planning a family reunion, or a get together at the beach with a lot of friends? Our homes can collectively accommodate over 20 people without anyone sleeping on the floor!

Beautiful views of the Gulf of Mexico and Mobile Bay. At Fort Morgan, the Gulf of Mexico and Mobile Bay are separated by a narrow strip of land- about a 1/4 mile wide at our location. Direct beach access: the street in front of our homes dead ends on the beach- Castaway II is approximately 300 feet from the beautiful, wide, white sand, beaches; Busy Doin' Nothin' is next door but 50 feet further, and Wastin' Away is the farthest from the beach at 400 feet.

Mobile Bay is to the north of our homes, less than 200 yards away.

Small, housebroken pets (no larger than 30#)  are allowed with the payment of a non-refundable pet fee.
