Great house for doggo
Me and my Redbone coonhound stayed for 2 months. The yard was safe for him and we were minutes from the dog park and walking distance from downtown. What could be better? I slept like a baby every night.

The location is close to town. The house has a nice layout when it was raining I was able to lay on the daybed to read, or look out side and just unwind.

Perfect spot for seeing downtown. A bit old and beat up, but the shower was great and everything worked. A bit of ice in the freezer would be nice. Thanks for the stay.

Great location, large backyard.
Place is as advertised but the location is excellent; walking distance to bars, restaurants, shopping, parks, nature trail. Woke up to the sound of seagulls each morning, which is a nice reminder that the coast is near. River is 2 blocks away. Large shaded backyard with lush grass.

Weekend getaway
The house was cute. It is an older home but it was redone nicely. It creaks and makes a lot of sounds. The neighborhood has some nice homes and some older homes, but it is very quiet and quaint. We enjoyed walking everywhere during our stay.

Great house
I really enjoyed my stay here. The house was adorable and in a wonderful location, it was exactly what I was looking for. Had a fenced yard for the dogs, a lovely little back patio area, and a welcoming front porch as well. The only issue I had is that my 30 pound dachshund mix found a space at the bottom of the chain-link fence in the front right corner of the yard and was able to run out, but I quickly recovered him nextdoor. Other than that everything was fantastic and I would love to stay here again.

This was a really cute place and had plenty of room.
Great location right near downtown and had a nice large backyard. We found the TV a little difficult to work with; the remote buttons didn't work well. This place would certainly sparkle and shine with a good spring cleaning. The window in the kitchen has not been cleaned in a very long time and the back porch was not usable it was so dirty. Otherwise, it was a nice place.

Would have been better at the Best Western
Made a quick trip to my home town, so options were a little slim. At first glance, the house was a cute little rental, however, we found numerous Palmetto Bugs in side, the beds were super uncomfortable, and it seemed like the floor was slanted from the kitchen to the master bedroom. Could not enjoy a hot shower, as the first family member only had like warm water.

So dirty!
We knew the house would be small and in town. What we didn’t know is how dirty the place would be. There was so much dirt and dog hair! The rugs, floors, corners, even the windowsills were dirty with dog hair. There is no way this place was cleaned before we got there. The fridge was dirty and smelled of rotten fish. The grime was visible in the fridge drawers were the smell was coming from. There were several open bottles of condiments in the fridge which I thought was very unsanitary. There were ants all over the place including the bathroom. The air in the house is so heavy that I’m sure the walls and floors are full of mold. The bedroom floor sloped so bad that one misstep and you could fall over. There was very little comfortable seating in the living room. The chairs that were there were just gross. We had to cover them with towels. On the plus side-the location was good. There is a washer and dryer in the back which was nice. The beds were ok and the sheets seemed clean. The AC worked. The saying “you get what you pay for” almost holds true. In this situation we got more than we paid for- in the form of lots of dirt and dog hair!

Great Family Vacation!
Everything was neat, clean, and very pet friendly! Marisa was just a call or text away and always willing to assist! The venue is in close proximity to the downtown and restaurants. Very close walking distance or golf cart ride. We would definitely recommend this home to others! Thanks again!

Rental cottage in Apalachicola
This is a cute little cottage, very well maintained and clean inside. The front and back porches could use some sprucing up, but the weather was not so great so we didn't want to spend any time on the porches anyway. We were grateful to find a place that accepted pets. The location is only a few blocks from town and very quiet. We will definitely stay here again when traveling with our pets.
