About this property

New- Apalachicola River Waterfront Dock & Kayak Launch

Summary:

Escape to one of the coolest hidden spots in Apalachicola. This brand-new, dog-friendly waterfront cottage sits directly on Scipio Creek with a private boat dock, kayak launch, and incredible access to fishing, boating, and nature. The home features a fully updated kitchen stocked with seafood cooking utensils, perfect for preparing the day’s fresh catch. Ideal for a romantic getaway, fishing trip, or quiet retreat just minutes from downtown.



The Space:

This Waterfront cottage offers a peaceful and private Old Florida experience surrounded by nature. The home features comfortable living spaces and a fully updated kitchen stocked with everything needed to prepare fresh seafood, including cooking utensils and essentials for enjoying your catch after a day on the water.

Step outside to enjoy your private dock, which can accommodate up to three smaller boats or one large and one small boat. Guests can fish directly from the dock or launch kayaks from the private kayak launch. The property is dog-friendly and ideal for fishing trips, hunting stays, or romantic getaways where privacy and nature take center stage.



Guest Access:

Guests have full access to the home, private dock, kayak launch, and parking area. The property has a private entrance and easy access for loading boats and fishing gear.



The Neighborhood:

Located on Scipio Creek in the heart of Apalachicola, the home feels secluded and surrounded by nature while still being just minutes from downtown Apalachicola’s restaurants, shops, seafood markets, and historic waterfront. The area is known for fishing, boating, wildlife viewing, and its laid-back Old Florida charm.



Getting Around:

A vehicle is recommended. Downtown Apalachicola is only a short drive away, and boat access allows guests to explore the Apalachicola River and nearby waters directly from the property.



Other Things to Note:

This property is located in a natural river environment surrounded by wildlife and native vegetation. Guests may encounter insects, birds, and other local wildlife typical of the Apalachicola River area. Boat docking is at guest’s own risk. Please supervise pets at all times due to the natural surroundings and waterfront location.



Interaction with Guests:

Southern Coast Vacation Properties is available throughout your stay for questions or assistance, but guests are given privacy to fully enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Contactless check-in instructions are provided prior to arrival.

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. It’s in a great location for fisherman‘s access to the river and Bay. We brought our 20 foot aluminum boat and it was very nice to tie up to the deep water dock. The home is full of charm and has a huge room in the back for the kids to play in and watch movies. The kitchen was fully equipped with beautiful pots and pans and cutlery. It even had a brand new propane grill and outdoor burner for fish fries or a low country boil. Highly recommended, we will stay again.
