Blissful Seaside Retreat—Cozy Ambience, Tons of Amenities + Close to Everything!

Perfect for families, groups, couples, boaters and fishing enthusiasts, this gorgeous little gem of a house near the water in the heart of tranquil, friendly Eastpoint is close to everything and less than 10 minutes to the beaches, shopping, dining, waterways and culture of Apalachicola, St. George Island and Carrabelle. This lovely newly-built (2023) home is the perfect home away from home for relaxed travelers who want to soak up everything that this unique and beautiful area has to offer, while having a lovely, livable, organized space to get comfortable in or come home to when the day's adventures are done.

The Area:
The Forgotten Coast just might be Florida's best-kept secret for the perfect vacation. Chock-full of beautiful beaches and waterways, quaint little shops, one-of-a-kind local restaurants and so much more, it is beloved just as much for what it doesn't have (big-box stores, traffic, hustle and bustle) as what it does. It's an easygoing, relaxed and incredibly friendly slice of heaven on the Gulf Coast.

The Property:
Open, airy, and streaming with gorgeous natural light, this home is designed in a coastal cottage style with lighthearted details throughout. Custom window treatments, accessories and hand-built furniture create a memorably cozy atmosphere.

This home has all the amenities you need for the perfect trip to the beautiful Forgotten Coast. Quick instructions for everything from the tv remotes and WiFi to the fans and the smart thermostat are conveniently displayed. And a handy key to finding everything in the house means you won't waste vacation time trying to find what you are looking for.

Excellent location close to everything:

►Conveniently close to great duck-hunting opportunities

Other things to note:

►The whole house and yard are yours to enjoy during your stay*! Please note the backyard is not fenced and our property extends beyond the back lawn into densely forested ground that is not possible to walk in.
*With the exceptions of locked supply closet in kitchen and locked tool chest in master bedroom closet.

►With the natural beauty of the Forgotten Coast comes a bit of wildlife. We've never seen it but there are clues of a local bear who occasionally gets into trash cans and takes trash to the wooded area behind backyard (unfenced). Bear-secure trash can helps with this. We've also spotted an adorable small turtle and tiny frogs in the yard.

►Due to high mineral content, our tap water can give off a sulphur smell which generally fades several hours after guests begin using the water. We recommend using the refrigerator's filtered water for drinking, although the tap water is safe to drink.

►If you have an ADA Service Animal, please note that per VRBO policy as related to federal law, "handlers must have their animal under control either on a leash or by verbal command if they are unable to use a leash." This means that the service animal must never be left unattended at the property at any time. Additionally as we are a no-pet property, for the health and comfort of our other guests, service animals are not allowed on beds or other furniture at any time.
IMPORTANT: Per Florida law, we require proof of rabies vaccination for ADA Service Animals prior to stay.

►Please let us know right away if there's ever an issue at or with the property that impacts the enjoyment of your stay so that we can help resolve it. Our guests are our top priority!

Seafood Festival Done Right
My wife and I, and three friends were here for the Florida Seafood Festival. Accommodations and location couldn't have been better. Easy to get to and from the fest, comfortable and quiet during down time. Thank you Melissa for the great getaway!

A beautiful, upscale port in the storm!
Our long awaited “Disney” trip began with Milton making landfall. Luckily we were able to wait out the storm farther north and be, not only safe, but comfortable. Thanks for your hospitality.

Perfect location for a beach town getaway!
This was our first time going to the beach in this area. We loved it! The house was in a perfect location, just 30 sec from the start of the bridge to cross over into St George Island, and very close to the bay bridge to cross over into Apolachicola. The house was beautiful and had all of the kitchen amenities and bathroom amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were very comfortable, and everything was so clean. We also enjoyed the beach towels, cooler bag, and umbrella they provided for the beach. My only complaint, and it’s small, is that the living room area could use a lounge chair or two, as it only has the couch and two small wooden chairs to sit in, which aren’t super comfortable if you are going to watch a movie with the family. Overall a great place to stay.

Super clean and convenient spot
Our family of 5 loved this little house. We had everything we needed and we were so pleased with the location. We easily were able to cross whichever bridge we needed to get to the places we wanted to see. And each night we had a great spot to land and rest. The beds were very comfy, the kitchen was very well stocked, and all 5 of us loved how beautiful everything was. Our littlest guy loved the jar of legos too. Such a fun touch for kids. We would be happy to stay again and again!

The Perfect Escape
What a wonderful little surprise it was to book a last minute trip and end up in the perfect town and home to bring in the New Year! Melissa’s home is absolutely amazing! It’s organized meticulously and has all the comforts to make this your home away from home. If you’re duck hunting, you’re just 3 minutes from various ramps. If you’re sight seeing, you’re 5-7 minutes from the SGI and Apalachicola city centers. And if you’re just in the mood to relax, the home is stocked with great books, games, and cozy spaces. Thank you again to Melissa and her husband for allowing us to enjoy their beautiful home! I know we’ll be back soon! Jackie
