Welcome to the Forgotten Coast and to Ocean Mile J9!
Our 300 Ocean Mile Unit J9 is just one unit out of the 100 unit townhome community, comprised of 1 to 3 bedroom units constructed in the early 1980s, all in a half-moon shaped arrangement around the community pool which faces the beach - to be even more exact on location, we're on the East End of the island next to the gorgeous State Park just steps away! This unit may have been built 30 years or more ago, but immediately our travelers notice very spacious and brightly colored living spaces combined with the basic comforts of home to create an overall inviting stay at the beach!
Ocean Mile J9 has two private sun decks, one located on the second level for the Queen Bedroom and the other on the third level for the King Suite to grab those warm, relaxing salt breezes and views of both the Gulf and Bay! Another sun deck is just off of the main living room which is also furnished and provides access to the boardwalk system to give you easy access to the pool and beach! (This pool is not heated). There is a pet/child gate located in the down stairs pantry closet if needed for added safety.
J9 is designed with beach living for small families in mind and is dog- friendly (up to 2 dogs max); the unit is very- well appointed with a fully stocked kitchen, a spacious living area that provides a 65" LCD flat panel display with Roku and Netflix that allow you to bring your account access with you. There is a very nice selection of Academy Award Winning movies - some DVD and some VHS - and may be watched on the players in each bedroom as well. We also have a a small book library to tie everything together. If you want to challenge the mind, a few board games and puzzles can be found under living room TV. The Queen Bedroom shares the full bath in the hall containing a walk - in shower, no tub. Just up the stairs are a full size washer and dryer and just beyond is the King Master with Vaulted Ceiling, a private balcony and the biggest bubble bath tub you can ever imagine!
* Floor covering is ceramic tile in most of the unit with carpeting in the bedrooms.
*We have grilling supplies located in the pantry closet but only grills at the common grounds area at the pool can be used.
We are adjacent to the state park which offers access to boat launch, kayaking in calm waters, fishing and unspoiled beaches.
Nearby Apalachicola will entice you with fine dining, boutiques, galleries, antiques, a dog park, and beautiful parks . Be sure to visit the farmers market in Apalachicola. Farm fresh vegetables, jams, breads, fresh off the boat seafood, and local artisan crafts.
Bring your fishing gear for world class surf casting or book a charter with one of the excellent local guides.
Note: Ocean Mile Supports The Leave No Trace Ordinance. All Beach Gear Must Be Removed From The Beach By 9pm During Turtle Nesting Season.
