- Most people find plenty to do at Withers Beach enjoying the beach, the dock, tennis court, swimming pool, cozy corners for conversations and afternoon naps. Across the bridge (15 minutes) there is a small grocery store, fresh seafood markets, Angelo's Seafood Restaurant, Posey's Steam Room and Dockside restaurants, 2 liquor stores, a bank/ATM, marine supply stores and gas stations. Be sure to check out the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab in Panacea and no trip to the forgotten coast is complete without a jungle cruise and a swim at Wakulla Springs (Ed Ball State Park) or a day kayaking the unspoiled coastlines of the Forgotten Coast or the pristine nearby rivers. Alligator Point Yacht Basin can launch your boat or you can use the free boat ramp nearby. A half an hour to Crawfordville and you have restaurants, Super Wal-Mart, all kinds of stores and shops. An hour away is Apalachicola, perhaps the most charming small Gulf town in the State with charming shops and great restaurants.

Great large beach front home.

Review Submitted: 01/04/12
We stayed in August of 2011. We had a large group. 12 counting a baby. There was plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was great. Had most everything we needed to cook for our large group. We cooked all of our meals while there. The bedrooms were good. The only complaint would be the two upper bedrooms did not cool very well. It was very hot even into the night. Otherwise it was a great place. The lower level bedrooms were very comfortable.
Owner response:We are in the process of improving the air conditioning system for the 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor; the central air system works well for the 4 bedrooms on the 1st floor, but we realize a new system is needed for upstairs. The beach is beautiful this time of year, no air conditioning needed, come enjoy the lovely weather and some cooler evenings, you will enjoy sitting by the fireplace!
Recommended for:Girls getaway, families with teenagers.
