Beautiful Cottage in an Awesome Town

Loved the location. Cottage was quaint and a historical site. Very pet friendly. Lots to do in this wonderful town and not far from ocean beaches. Hosts were friendly, kind, and available when needed. We highly recommend The Cottageit!

Quiet Escape

I was attending an event where sunup to sundown we were very busy. The cottage was a perfect place to relax and get a good night’s sleep at the end of each day. My hosts were very kind and responsive. I would definitely stay there again.

Excellent place to stay. Close enough to walk into town. Bed could use an upgrade. Property could use a grooming and cleaning. But we had a great time.

Girls trip

I have been visiting Apalachicola for years but my friend had never been. I found this cottage on Vrbo and it looked perfect for a restful couple of days to get away. The cottage was perfect , clean & comfortable. Very quiet and close to everything. Would definitely stay again and again. Owners were so easy to deal with , we had no problems.

Quiet

My husband and I spent a weekend recently. It’s a great place to relax. It’s clean, quiet and cozy. Just right for a couple. You can explore the historic cemetery just outside your door or easily walk/drive to the downtown shops.

Perfectly private in-historic district night away

We needed a midweek clean, cozy & cool place to stay during a home remodel project -- reached out 24 hours in advance and Patrick/Lauren were not only responsive but truly accommodating. Gorgeous main property hidden behind ivy covered brick garden walls with path to our private cottage. A perfect little 'tiny house' with just what we needed for an early check in, AC, kitchenette, and just-as-pictured stay in the cottage. Will definitely keep in mind when we have out of town guests/overflow or simply want to get away from day-to-day! Highly recommended!

DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!

My wife and I just needed a getaway from life for a night. We live in Panama City and know Apalanche is a great community to get away from our normal life. This place is incredible. We enjoyed downtown early and came back and stayed in the cottage. Everything from linens, floors, amenities and location were top notch. We will def be back!

Cute pet friendly spot

A great clean spot to spend the night within walking distance to downtown. The decor was perfect and it was exactly what we were looking for! Only thing of note was the mattress being a little bit on the soft side. Otherwise nothing of note!
