About this property

Castaway II

Castaway II is a beautiful beach home located less than 100 yards from the prettiest, and perhaps least crowed, beach anywhere! The home's 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, along with full size, complete kitchen, eating bar, spacious dining area, den, and laundry room offer generous room for your stay. The home features tile flooring (except bedrooms), is fully furnished, with a fully furnished kitchen, featuring all needed small appliances, dishwasher, microwave, and stove; -everything you will need for a quiet and restful vacation in our 'no condo' single family residential community. All bed linens and towels are furnished at no extra charge. A washer and dryer are in the home for your use; TVs in the family room and master bedroom with satellite for your enjoyment, along with DVD and vcr players.

The master bedroom has a king size bed; another bedroom has twin beds; and, the remaining two bedrooms each have queen size beds.

The front deck faces east- perfect for enjoying a Gulf coast sunrise, and is shaded in the afternoon for enjoying the view of the Gulf and the constant Gulf breezes. This house is located approximately 300 feet (length of a football field) from the Gulf- the street (Bernard Court East) dead-ends on the beach for direct beach access- there is no cutting through other folks property, or walking great distances to gain beach access.

There is an extra refrigerator under the house for your use. The area under the house is concrete which provides a parking area and/or shaded play area for children. There is plenty of off-street parking for multiple vehicles, your boat, or other watercraft.

Alcohol is allowed on our beaches, as are pets. You are free to leave beach umbrellas in place over night.

We appreciate your interest in Castaway II.

Wonderful time
First time in Fort Morgan and booked on a whim. Loved the location and access to beach (quick and easy for kids) the house was very homey and perfect size. Spent most the time out on the beach. Loved that we didn’t have to pack beach toys or our wagon because they had those there, same with towels, rags, etc. We can’t wait to book again!

Great
So close to the beach and quiet neighborhood. House is huge with great kitchen and plenty of cooking utensils (first one I stayed at that had a cast iron skillet) Owners frequently in neighborhood and available without being intrusive. Beach was lovely and just steps away. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels. Will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Tina Scarborough.

Host profile image
We are native Alabamians. We live in Tallassee, Alabama.
Joe and I enjoy actively participating in our Church, traveling with our friends, boat rides, 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!

Why they chose this property

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 pristene white sandy beach, salt air, and ever-present Gulf breezes; a community of single-family homes; with great neighbors and friends.

What makes this property unique

Only a short walk (less than 100 yards-the length of a football field). Our 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 when leaves are off the trees in the Fall and Winter) can be enjoyed from the front deck. Since the house is located about a 1/4 mile away from Fort Morgan Marina, and approximately a mile from the Ft. Morgan historic site with public boat launch and fishing pier (to be remodeled in the coming year), there are a lot of fishing and boating activities available- we enjoy shrimping and fishing in Mobile Bay.
