My husband and I were here visiting our 24 year old son and his girlfriend who live in Apalachicola now. They stayed with us. Everything about our stay was perfect. We are so grateful for this amazing property. We would like to come in warmer weather next time but loved it !!

Only issue for us was the stairs- hard on us and the dogs Dock needs guardrails- that direct drop is dangerous Need grab bar on outside of tub for help getting out in Bath upstairs Both towel holder and toilet paper holder were loose in upstate bath But, beautiful house in a great location. Gorgeous sunsets. So easy to get to both Apalachicola or SGI!

Anniversary Getaway
We were celebrating our 44th anniversary and decided to go away for a few days. We found this property hoping to do a little fishing but Mother Nature had other ideas. The heat made it difficult for the air conditioning to keep up during the day; the nights were better but it took a while to cool down. The house was immaculate and the appliances were all brand new. Also the house was fully stocked with every accessory for cooking. The only thing that really bothered us was the tv situation. Couldn’t figure out how to get regular channels only could get what was on Samsung Plus. Small inconvenience but somewhat annoying nevertheless. Would recommend this property for anyone not needing to put a kayak in the water or didn’t need to watch a lot of tv.

Lake House on the Bay
Enjoyed our stay! View and dock is amazing. I loved dog bowls in place for dogs. Dogs are not allowed on furniture or beds. Dishes have to be put back, so I wasn’t confident of cleanliness. Leaving dishes in dishwasher is an incentive for guests to use it. Garbage had to be pulled to the street. Loved that I could check in early!

The property was perfectly situated between St. George Island and Apalachicola. We had waited until the last minute to rent not knowing our exact dates to be in the area. We normally rent on the island; however, with the holiday weekend, it was close to impossible. This house fit the bill for us perfectly. It was newly renovated, the furnishings were new, and the view from the new dock was gorgeous. The only drawbacks were the dock was too high and the water too shallow for a boat. It was a lovely stay.

We enjoyed the location, comfort and cleanliness of this home. Comfortable beds, beautiful view of the bay and close to the beach and Apalachicola. We were responded to quickly and considerately when we had questions about the house when we arrived. I would recommend this beautiful home for a restful vacation to my family and friends.
