One of the best values in Ft. Morgan. Book your Vacation today!

'Wastin' Away' is a cabin that has been remodeled with modern conveniences. It is a small house, with two bedrooms and 1 bath, but has a large living area. It is close to the beautiful Gulf beaches, offering guests real value in their visit to the beach.
'Wastin' Away' is fully furnished- all you need to bring is your food and clothing for a fun time at our un-crowded, beautiful white sand beaches which is located less than 100 yards.
For those interested in bay or gulf fishing, a public boat launch on the Fort Morgan historic site, approximately 2 miles away, offers quick access to both Mobile Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

Pets are allowed on our beaches as is alcohol, plus you don't have to remove beach equipment every evening.

Thanks for your interest in "Wastin' Away"!

2024 Fort Morgan trip

We had a very pleasant trip. There were ants in the house, but not enough to bother any of us, did not appear furniture had been moved and cleaned under and behind; quite a build up of dust. It was great to be so close to the beach access. I loved being able to take our dogs to the beach and to meet so many other fur families.

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!

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!

Vacation 2023

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.

Enjoyed our stay at Wastin Away!

We enjoyed our stay! We have stayed at a family members house that is directly across the street for several years now. When that house was not available, we were excited to find Wastin Away. We love the area and enjoy being able to walk to the beach, bring our dog with us, and feel safe letting the kids play outside. We had a great, relaxing family vacation here! Thanks Joe & Tina!

Beach week

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

Perfect spot for relaxation

Had a great Labor Day weekend (even if the weather was a little rainy). Great location very close to the beach. Lots of friendly people with dogs In toe in the neighborhood. Cute house with a great deck and everything you need to just relax and disconnect. Will definately be back again.

2nd time at wastin away!

This is the second time we booked wastin away with Joe and Tina. Felt like our home away from home. Time gave us a call our 2nd day there to make sure we got settled in and let her know if we needed anything. House had everything we needed and we truly enjoyed our stay. I believe we will make this a yearly trip:)

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.
