This was the best vacation I’ve ever had! Right on the water of Cipio Creek, best sleep I’ve had in a long time, and everybody was so friendly. Fishing off the deck was divine and the town is amazing with lots to do. Already planning our next trip!

The property was clean and well stocked. The view was terrific. It was a quiet venue. The air conditioning was perfect. Although we did not fish, we did see many fish jumping. Every evening an alligator swam by, and we saw several turtle heads (they didn’t surface to show their shell). We brought our own binoculars, which helped in spotting the wildlife. The mattress was a bit more firm than I was used to, but I got used to it after the 2nd night. The only thing I didn’t like was, the top railing on the deck was at my eye level (I’m short), so to see some of the wildlife I had to stand up or slump down in the chair. The only way to fix this would be for the owner to install a different railing (which I’m sure would be pretty expensive) or maybe provide a bar height table and chairs. Regardless, I would stay here again. The location was great for walking around town, driving to the outer Island, or exploring the area.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 4th of July weekend is definitely the time be there. Only issue was the sulfur smell of water. It’s Florida, what can you say. Food and shops can all be found within a short walk. Fishing was great. Just an awesome time!!

Charming waterfront accommodation

We truly enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need and Karen was super friendly and available for any questions. Don’t worry about staying on the water because even the biggest boats passing by caused very little movement. We will definitely be back and plan to tell our friends and family about this little jewel.

Perfect respite!

My husband and I recently stayed in this beautiful home. It was a perfect slice of paradise - even in December - to get away from the craziness of day-to-day. All of the shops and restaurants were within a short walking distance, the sunrises were breathtaking every morning, the house was the perfect size for just the two of us, and there were even dolphins right outside the back patio! We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet, gorgeous getaway.

Comfy stay on this houseboat!

I enjoyed a March week vacationing on Rebel's Rest. Despite several days of cool and windy weather, the houseboat proved to be comfy and cozy. I felt comfortable there immediately as everything you might need is available and the layout is excellent. I will consider staying here again when visiting the area because I loved waking up to sunrises on the water and being so close to the shops and restaurants in Apalachicola.

Great experience!

We loved staying on your houseboat. It was so magical sitting on the deck watching the fish jump, the lily pads float by and the shrimp boats coming in surrounded by birds. The location was great, was able to walk right out the door and listen to some good music right around the corner, browse through the local shops and eat some great restaurants. Also, a quick drive to Cape San Blas, spent the day at the beach swimming in the Gulf. I can't wait to come back and share this experience with other friends.

Everything was fresh and in good condition. I brought bottled water because others had complained about the water smelling and tasting like sulfur. But that is no longer the case. I was able to drink from the tap and it tasted just fine and no sulfur smell at all!!We had everything we needed for a lovely stay. Karen greeted us upon check in and Norma checked in later to see if everything was to our liking. We got up early each morning to watch the sun rise from our porch. We walked everywhere. The car stayed parked. The weather was a little chilly but we were super comfy sitting on the porch and watching the boats and the pelicans and reading. We ate at many of the local places, but found the best food right next door at Up the Creek!It was all so wonderful, we look foreword to the next time.Will recommend the houseboats to anyone who is going to Apalachicola for a quiet, restful time.

What a sweet comfy houseboat!

The houseboat was everything the listing said and more. We absolutely loved sitting on the deck in the morning watching the fishing boats go by and the sun come up over the water while enjoying our tea and coffee. This houseboat is located within walking distance of old town Apalachicola with all its restaurants and shopping. Walk across the street in the morning for the most delicious biscuits from The Biscuit Factory or walk next door to Up The Creek Seafood Restaurant for an amazing dinner. No fishing poles? No problem! The owner has provided two! We intend to return!!

Truly Restful, much nicer than pictures show

We were pleasantly surprised with this gem on the water. The pictures make the interior look a little dated and dowdy. That is FAR from the actual experience. We thoroughly enjoyed this place with high ceilings, a lot of natural light, and a fantastic A/C system. While the bedroom was small, the mattress was very good and extra pillows were provided. There is a LOT of storage so you can tuck your suitcases out of site and ample room to cook in the kitchen. The ONLY downfall is the weird sulfer smell of the water - many the hot water, from the faucets. The water is clean and it didn't provide a bad showering experience but we did get bottled water for our coffee. Plus, if you like to fish - this is the place. My husband actually got tired of catching fish off the houseboat - mainly sail cats and other smaller catfish. But it seemed that every cast resulted in a catch.

Relaxation week

We found the houseboat just as described in the listing. The photos were very accurate. We met Karen one day while walking the dock & had a very nice conversation with her. She gave us a little history of the town & her boat rentals. If you are looking for a small town to go & relax, then this is the place for you. We spent alot of our time just relaxing on the back deck enjoying the water. This town is a no-frills, laid back, friendly , quite place. The stores / restaurants close pretty early & some places are closed on Sunday / Monday. It is worth the drive to take the bridge over to St. George. The beach at the State Park there was absolutely perfect. No crowds & the softest sand ever. We went into this vacation looking for relaxation in a non-tourist trap atmosphere and that is exactly what we got. Everything was GREAT! Thank you Karen for offering such an awesome rental.

Perfect Location

Rebel rest is a cute little house boat. It was very clean & comfortable! It’s location is perfect! You can walk anywhere around the town from its location. The view is beautiful and even on a hot summer day the breeze off the water makes it pleasant for sitting on the front patio & watching all the boats go by. Although we cooked nothing while there the kitchen is adequate for preparing a meal. We throughly enjoyed our stay and we give the place 5 stars all the way but, we were a little amused that we had to wait 30 minutes to get into the houseboat and communication was very slow. When you travel upon arrival you just want to get out of the car & relax. I notified Karan shortly after 4 that the houseboat was not open but did not hear back until the next day. Luckily someone showed up about 4:30 to open it because we were concerned that there had been a mix up. We would still highly recommend the Rebels Rest with its full view into a small fishing villages life style, off the beaten path of the touristy town but don’t by any means miss the cute shops & wonderful restaurants. Our favorite restaurant was The Station. It’s a short drive to Carrabelle, MX Beach, Pt St Joe and even Tyndall if you happen to be military which we are & we enjoyed visiting several friends along the Panhandle stretch. Book with confidence that you will enjoy your stay.

3 day birthday weekend

We loved our stay at the houseboat and had so much fun. The water view is beautiful and the boat barely moved at all. I will say it was not very private and was odd to have some harmless patrons from the restaurant next door and the host board and come around to the back porch while we were still inside.

I purchased the houseboat marina in 2013 and moved to Apalachicola to manage Florida Houseboat Vacation Rentals in 2014 after retiring from my career as a Commercial Lending Officer. Since then, I have added 3 houseboats along with the 2 additional houseboats which were moored in the marina already. I decided to move to Apalachicola for the "Old Florida" charm of the city with it's historic homes and easy lifestyle.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

The location makes it easy to walk to all of the restaurants, bars, shops and historic homes in downtown Apalachicola.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

These 4 houseboat rentals are moored in downtown Apalachicola and offer an unique waterfront stay while located in a quiet and comfortable locale. The Rebel's Rest (one of 4 houseboats) offers a covered waterfront porch with space to enjoy a meal or just watch the boat traffic and a very upscale interior.
