About this property

Enjoy Crawfordville at the Courtyard’s Oyster Cottage

Sister to the Courtyard’s Pelican Cottage (vrbo #2683629), the Oyster Cottage is awaiting your arrival. Comfortable, cozy, convenient, and wheelchair accessible. Located Across the street from Wakulla County Courthouse, and across the lawn from the Courtyard’s Pelican Cottage, and neighbor to Coast to Pines Home Partners just off of Crawdordville Hwy. This early 1900’s cottage is a unique piece of history with modern comforts. Close to everything in and around Crawdordville. We love pets, but are not accepting pets at this time.
St. Marks, Shell Point, and Panacea are just south, and St George/Apalachicola are one hour west. Tallahassee is 30 minutes north. Taste of Mexico and Subway are across the street, and Myra Jean's, Lex & Roll, and the Breakfast Station are just a short drive. If you love coffee like we do, try Atlas or Wild Ox. Enjoy seasonal Meyer lemons, kumquats, blueberries, crab apples, pears, persimmons, & figs from the orchard. Paddle the spring fed Wakulla River from TNT canoe rental or visit Wakulla Springs State park for a step back in time. St. Marks Wildlife Refuge and Lighthouse are also close by and a popular saltwater fishing spot. Cool off swimming in beautiful clear Emerald Sink off Lighthouse Road.
The Courtyard properties are equipped with outdoor security cameras. Please reach out with any questions. We value your business and look forward to your visit.

Thank you, Kevin and Rena, for sharing your property with us. The cottage was welcoming, clean, easily accessible, and well stocked. The property owners shared various eateries and activities in the area which was very helpful. My sisters and I will definitely be returning again.

Great little home away

Property had everything you need for your stay. Comfortable in every way..Owners very responsive. Great location for visiting Wakulla Springs. Deducted 1star due to noisy street. We were too tired to care after a day at the Springs but might matter to someone.

Coziest Cottage

Perfect location for my stay! I lived here in Crawfordville for 8 years so I’m quite familiar with its proximity to a busy roadway, that didn’t bother me or my mom who was a first time visitor to the area. We loved the cottage and will book again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Kevin and Rena

Host profile image
We are a husband, wife, and two school age boys currently living in my home town of Tallahassee. We love the Forgotten Coast, and spend most of our staycations between St. Marks, Crawfordville, and Apalachicola, doing everything from fishing, snorkeling, scalloping, wind-surfing, canoeing, paddle-boarding, antiquing, and of course working to fuel our passions.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with 5 High Drive when we viewed it in 2021 with our realtor. The location is unique in that the property is nestled in the heart of Crawfordville. When the church lights are on behind us it's a beautiful seeing the stained glass light up, as well as the church steeple, and the historic Chamber of Commerce building (which is amazing at sunset, and has a mullet on the steeple).

What makes this property unique

Crawfordville and the Forgotten Coast provide such unique adventure opportunities with something for everyone. We love providing a clean, safe, and enjoyable experience in the heart of all the area has to offer. Please enjoy seasonal fruit from the orchard, and be sure to walk to the original courthouse and original jail (museum with a night time jailer visible in the upstairs window after dark).
