Location: Carrabelle Beach, Florida Main North West, Florida North West, Florida, USA (Near Apalachicola, Tallahassee, and Saint George Island)
Accommodations: House/Cottage, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 5)
Don't let the quaintness of this beach front cottage fool you. This newly remodeled (2007) home may look simple on the outside but it has all of the modern conveniences that anyone could ask for! No expense was spared with decorating, but we left the charm of an older beach home intact. Everything in this house is new! It looks like a show room for IKEA meets Pottery Barn, right down to the kitchen cabinets!
With 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, this home sleeps 4 comfortably. The Master has a queen bed and the second bedroom has a full and a twin. The bathroom is located just between the two bedrooms. We believe we used the space perfectly to house the maximum amount of people, with still leaving a great deal of space to get around. There is a television in the living room and one in each of the bedrooms, for a total of 3 televisions. The house has cable, VCR's and/or DVD players (on every TV), and wireless internet, so bring your laptop and work by the water.
Sandpiper Quay is right on the water, and boasts a large screened in porch where you can sit and enjoy the coastal breezes. What's better than having the beach as your backyard? We have provided beach towels and beach chairs for your use and there is a park-style grill in the fenced backyard. Just like others, once you stay here, you will want to return!
Some of the best seafood can be found in Carrabelle. You can go to downtown Carrabelle and purchase shrimp each morning, fresh off of the shrimp boats. The freshest oysters are harvested every morning, so be sure to pick some up, as well as the fresh grouper and other fish. Or, if you prefer, you can fish from the beach just out your back door.
This is a great little beach bungalow in a tranquil setting. If you're ready to relax and get away from it all, then give us a call! You only need to provide us with a credit card to book the home, so what are you waiting for?

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Carrabelle Beach
Sandpiper Quay means Sandpiper "by the water". We pick this little home because of its location. It is right on the water, with beautiful views of both Saint George Island and Dog Island. Carrabelle is a cute undisturbed old fishing village, where you can still go into town and buy fresh shrimp off of the shrimp boats in the morning and the oysters are the freshest you'll find. The people are laid back and life is a little slower in Carrabelle. It's a great place to relax, unwind and enjoy the undisturbed, practically private beach.

Homeowner Response:
Carol, We are so glad you enjoyed yourselves. We did, at one point have information in the cottage about local places and attractions, but it seems to have disappeared. We will put together another folder to be place in the cottage. Thank you for the nice comments! We love the cottage.
