'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.
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.
If you have any questions, please call me at (334) 233-2002.
Thanks for your interest in "Wastin' Away"!

About Tina Scarborough
We are native Alabamians. We live in Tallassee, Alabama. Joe and I enjoy actively participating in our Church, traveling with our friends, boat rides on Mobile Bay, fishing and shrimping, riding the ferry to Dauphin Island, bike rides in the Fort Morgan and Dauphin Island area, and enjoying the prettiest beach in the world- here in Ft. Morgan!
Tina Scarborough purchased this House in 2000
Why Tina Scarborough chose Homes, Bernard Court
The Fort Morgan area reminds us of how Gulf Shores was forty (40) years ago- prior to the proliferation of condos. Ft. Morgan is a quiet, peaceful place to relax and enjoy the pristine white sandy beach, salt air, and ever-present Gulf breezes; a community of single-family homes, with great neighbors and friends.
What makes this House unique
'Wastin' Away' is a short walk to the beach- the street (Bernard Court East) actually dead ends onto the beach- there is no cutting through other property owner's yards, or walking down the beach front road east or west to access the 'public' areas. The Gulf and Bay views can be enjoyed from the front deck. Since the house is located about a 1/4 mile away from the marina, and less than a mile from the Ft. Morgan historic site with public boat launch and fishing pier, there are a lot of fishing and boating activities available- we enjoy shrimping and fishing in Mobile Bay.

Two week winter getaway in Fort Morgan
Dear Barbara,
I am sorry to learn that your two week stay in “Wastin’ Away” was less that enjoyable due to the things mentioned in your recently posted review of our property on VRBO.
I wish you had mentioned any/all the deficiencies during my three calls to you during your stay to make sure everything was ok...... you ALWAYS said everything was “fine”, you were “enjoying your stay”, etc. One reason I call all our guests is to try to assure all aspects of their stay are satisfactory (except the weather!!). As absentee landlords, we rely heavily on input from guests. We will certainly follow-up on the items you mentioned, but must point out that the guest that was in this house for ten days immediately prior to your stay rated this property as “5 stars”.
Again, I apologize for your less than a totally positive experience that you had at “Wastin’ Away”.
Tina Scarborough
Delightful Two Weeks
Charming Christmas getaway!
Excellent Stay
Awwsome
