'Busy Doin' Nothin' is located within a single family residential neighborhood- none of the crowded beaches, traffic, noise, etc. associated with some areas on the Gulf coast.

Restaurants and convenience stores located nearby. At last count, 13 golf courses in the area, Bon Secure National Wildlife Refuge, the Mobile Bay Ferry, Fort Morgan Historic Site, Alabama Birding Trail are all close by. For those that desire to 'shop 'til you drop', the Rivera Centre contains in excess of 100factory outlet stores and is located in nearby Foley (approximately 10 miles north of Gulf Shores).

The world's most beautiful beach is located approximately 100 yards from your front door. The home has a wagon for your use in carrying necessary beach supplies, chairs, etc.- most of which are available at the home for your use. Because the home is located on the Fort Morgan Peninsula, Mobile Bay is directly north of the home, less than a 1/4 mile away, and offers fishing, crabbing, shrimping, etc. The home has crab traps available for your use-you will need to bring your own fishing equipment. A fishing pier is located on the Fort Morgan Historic Site and is available for your use at a nominal charge, and well as the public boat launch.

    We enjoyed our stay very much. Nice and close to the beach (2 minute walk). The only thing that would keep us from renting this property again is the condition of the stairs. If they get replaced we will happily sign up for next year.

    The guys enjoyed their stay and fishing was good. The house was very convenient and so homey. This fishing trip will be talked about for months to come. Made a lot of memories with family and friends. Would highly recommend this house.

    The location was perfect — very close to the beach and easy to get around. Communication with the hosts was smooth and timely.The kitchen had what we needed for basic cooking. Like most rentals, the skillet wasn’t great, but that’s pretty common. Dishes and utensils were a mix of styles, but there was enough for our stay.The bedrooms were comfortable, though the carpets are older and a bit worn in spots. If you’re bringing dogs, I recommend bringing a gate or board to block off the deck stairs.Overall, the house had plenty of room and worked out perfectly for our short visit. We’d definitely stay here again!

    This home is in a great location. Just a short walk to the beach. There are several great restaurants nearby. Felt like home! It was the perfect weekend stay!

    This property has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The living area is huge! It has a large kitchen, packed with everything you need and plenty of space in the dining room. The location is so convenient. Walk by a few houses and you're on the Gulf of America beach. This section of the beach is actually dog friendly (as is the property)! Our little Ewokian (Havanese/Pomeranian) puppy loved the beach! The Tacky Jack seafood restaurant is a few minutes away and not far from Fort Morgan Historical Site (all dog friendly). The Fort Morgan area is so secluded from the tourists and is so quiet, yet close enough to drive to Gulf Shores for souvenirs and shopping. We'll be back!

    House was furnishing are garage sale quality. Dirty dishes in cabinets. Kitchen stove hood super filthy. Stairs are very unstable without proper rails for handicapped. Refrigerator was not working properly and has a note on it to the fact. Both refrigerators went out during 1st day. There was no where to put cold items. Ice chest had to be purchased. The main refrigerator was semi-cool on arrival. The note on refrigerator explain not to overload or keep open. I placed my insulin in the door and shut it. When I returned 3 hours later the refrigerator was hot as was my insulin. I notified owner and she sent repair man and her husband next morning. The husband apologized and brought ice for refrigerator. He inspected the hot refrigerator. Repair man came and clean dirty coils and stated refrigerator should cool down after a few hours and not to use till then. The repairman gave me a businesscard in case the refrigerator did not cooldown. The owner apologized and stated she would cover the cost of medication ruined. Now that I am home, the owner states there was nothing wrong with both refrigerators and I am after her money. Sad way to treat people but money is obviously an issue for this owner. To blame renters for know issues. Don’t trust these people with your vacation, find another property. WARNING
