This property is located in a family and pet friendly neighborhood. Gulf Shores is a short and easy drive away and Dauphin Island is a fun Ferry ride away. The beach is just steps away! The communication from the property managers was fantastic!

Sweet Home Alabama
Vicki and I were looking for a place that we could escape the winter and found it here at Wasting Away. It’s a beach bungalow cottage with everything you need to enjoy Fort Morgan, one of the best kept secret's. The place had what we needed and if it wasn’t there we went to the Dollar General to get it. Wasting Away is about the beach, surf fishing, Mardi Gras and the Blue Angles flying by. If you have pets it’s perfect, a short walk to the dog friendly beach and miles of open space to run and play. The open floor plan has the longest kitchen center piece I’ve ever seen. Great for gatherings and just spreading out a buffet. Wasting Away is for independent minded people that can improvise, making it what you want it to be. It was the perfect place for the beach hippie in me. We plan to come back soon.

DO NOT STAY HERE
Do not stay here unless you love extra unwarranted charges. We were charged $150 for leaving a very little food in the fridge and a little trash in a bag in the kitchen. I have proof! Ask me for details. TERRIBLE hosts. Called and harassed me. I have the pics that caused them to do so. Love fort Morgan, this is the first place to make me not enjoy my time here. Tina Scarborough and husband are awful.

Great place and amazing location!
This place is wonderful! It was just right for two adults. Sure, the furnishings might be a bit dated, but they were functional. And nothing can beat this location! We wanted a quiet place for some beach R&R, and we got exactly that!

We were very pleased, the house was nice and clean and not far from the beach. Tina was an awesome host and we will stay in a property owned by her, if available, next time we go on vacation. Convenient to Gulf Shores snd places to eat.

Family friendly and relaxing atmosphere
We enjoyed our stay, this was our first time to stay at Ft.Morgan and we discovered a paradise. It was refreshing to enjoy an beautiful beach without the fanfare of more popular areas. Definitely a must on our future beach trips. The rental was dated but clean. It was a camp experience. Our next stay request will include 2 bathrooms and a larger shower. But all in all it was a good place to stay for our needs.

The house was amazing a little small but for a family of 4 perfect. The house is a little lower to the ground than the rest of the houses down there so if you are over 6 foot tall you have to watch your head. The house was clean an comfortable
