Come enjoy this fully restored 1935 cottage in the historic district of Apalachicola, located less than 2 blocks from charming downtown restaurants, shops, parks, and the marina.

Beautiful, chef's dream kitchen perfect for cooking up that fresh catch. 15 minute drive to the pristine beaches of St. George's Island.
