Owner's Profile

Why the Owner Chose Private Homes

Our first visit to the Fort Morgan area was in 1999 and we immediately fell in love with the area- it was all single family residences- much like Gulf Shores thirty years ago- prior to the condo invasion! We were lucky enough to find a "cabin" for sale with four lots, and built Busy Doin' Nothin' in the the summer of 2004.

The Unique Benefits of this House

The beach is a short walk away- in fact- the street in front of the house dead ends onto the beach-the beautiful white sand is close by- the salt air and gently breezes are ever-present. We enjoy shrimping and fishing in Mobile Bay, and of course, deed sea fishing (the mouth of Mobile Bay is 1/2 mile west of the boat launch at the Fort)- since the boat launch at the Ft. Morgan historic site is a mile away from the house- doesn't take but a couple of minutes to be on the water.

    • We have just returned from Busy Doin'Nothin. The house is fantastic!! We were extremly pleased with the home, everything you need was there. It was about a 150 yards from beach. The community is family friendly. You are a 20 mile drive from Gulf Shores about 2 miles from the ferry. We got to swim with the sting rays, turtles, and dolphins. Thanks for the memories!!
