Great View and Great Location with a laid back vibe!

My husband recently retired and we decided to take a road trip throughout the state of Florida. Apalachicola was a first time for us and we loved it! The "Swan" was very clean, comfy, and cozy! Kathy was great! She was quick to respond to any question we had and she had several suggestions for us to enjoy our time out and around town! Our dog was very happy and enjoyed how pet friendly this quaint little town is. We also had a really nice day going to St George Island. Can't wait to come back for a girls trip!
