A Real Gem

Nestled in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown, it features a secure yard for fur babies. It is comfortable, stylish and well maintained. Had all amenities you need. The owners, Marisa and Danny were professional and answered any questions I had in a very timely manner. I cannot imagine finding a better spot to enjoy this historic Florida town. Definitely will be back. Highly recommend.

Perfect Stay

The house was the perfect central location, yet quiet and relaxing. We were in town for a wedding and able to walk everywhere and not drive until we checked out! The house was the perfect size to accommodate us. We also loved how it was all fenced in for the dogs to be able to go outside. If we ever get back to Apalachicola we will for sure book here again.

Casarita take alma money

We’re traveling with another couple who stayed elsewhere, so our time was limited in the unit. The screen is still ripped in the front door that doesn’t have a latch. The internet didn’t work, so the tv didn’t work. Bed #2 is ridiculously sloped. Based on the lack of care, I’d suggest just putting a 2x4 under it to level it out! It was that bad. The drapes were closed & it wasn’t until the next day that we discovered a window without a screen was left open. And the worse part of the stay was lack of hot water. So one lukewarm shower. One no shower! The response from the host was minimal and almost accusatory on why we didn’t contact earlier. I guess I expect our host who lives across the street would assure the basics were working properly. This felt like she was just taking your money . .

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
