About this property

Apalachicola Oyster House, new Dock

Hip studio style, pet friendly rustic beach cottage & former Oyster house refinery on the bay with a new dock w/ plenty of parking for your boat/trailer. There are crab traps at the dock that you can bait. We have a Yamaha gas powered golf cart that is available to rent for $55 a day as Apalachicola is a golf cart friendly town. ****🚬Smoking is not allowed inside, but is allowed outside. Please keep the discarded butts from the yard please. ****😀 Amenities include a picnic table, Weber grill, and fire pit with Adirondack chairs and a yard swing for enjoying your time outside. The yard is large with a tropical feel with tropical foliage overlooking the bay. Conveniently located 1 mile from shopping and restaurants downtown.
******PETS****
House trained , well behaved fur babies stay for $25 (one charge for 2). Would like to keep pets at 2 max. The Oyster House has a nice, big yard if you have a dog. Just bring a tie out and a runner to keep them off of Hwy 98 as there is no fence. There is a tie out in the yard if you find it satisfactory to use at your own risk. Please clean up waste after pups! 😀
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Absolutely love the oyster house! Crab galore! Ran traps off the dock. The view was of back of the island and an awesome view of the big water and a cute palm off the tip of the bay. St. George lit the islands shore. Very private and convenient to many things. Not to far to go enjoy downtown in the golf cart. Will be back.

I loved every minute I spent here. The property was exactly as described. It’s a really special and unique experience to stay in this oyster house on the bay. Convenient to shopping and food. Amazing wildlife in the backyard. I saw dolphins, a bald eagle, a great blue heron. We caught blue crab off the dock and ate well. What a stay! I highly recommend. The bay delivered us a Statler Brothers tape one morning, right up to the shore. I left it amongst some other treasures from the sea. Pic attached.

What a unique place! I think the pictures and description are clear with the exception of privacy. This house shares a property with the owners’ camper. The docks are fairly close too. Thank goodness they are super nice! But it’s something to know before you go! Overall, we loved this place. It’s right on the bay and has crab pots ready to go (just add chicken for bait!) We caught about 35 crabs without trying too hard. The kitchen is very well stocked so we could have a crab boil one night. The place is over 50 years old but well maintained. It was comfortable and clean. The bed is two twins pushed together so that was a little odd. The only part we didn’t like was the tiny shower but it didn’t hamper our stay! The owners are great and helpful. We would definitely stay here again and would love to bring the grandkids! They would have a blast!

Short Trip from South GA

Overall was the best weekend trip we have had in a very long time. Plenty of fun to be had at and around the property. It was a little disappointing that the paddleboat was not working, as it was the initial picture that drew me to the property, and there was nowhere to swim nearby (less than 15 minutes away). However, the property was very clean, had many other fun things to use, and let's talk about the location! We sat out on the dock and saw dolphins and manatees. Fishing, paddling, golf-carting, the beach stuff, crab traps; we stayed very busy and very happy! I have been recommending it to all my friends who want a quick weekend trip.

Super fun place right on the bay

We stayed here for a week-long fishing trip over thanksgiving and had a great time. The house was clean, well provisioned and full of character just as it appears in the photos. The new dock worked well and there's a boat launch just down the street which was convenient. Communication was great with our hosts and check in/out was easy.
