Relaxing Weekend Getaway

The apartment over the garage could not have been nicer. Everything was provided that was in the listing. You were close to everything that Apalachicola has to offer. This is a great town to just walk around in and see the sights.

What a great place to stay to get the feeling of old Florida. A perfect loft equipped with everything you need. Much better than a hotel room. Really really charming. Love the antique hot plate for cooking.

Wonderful stay!

We found this loft very clean, nicely furnished, and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a pleasant two-week stay. The location is in the heart of historic downtown Apalachicola, safe, and just steps away from the wonderful restaurants, historic sites, shops, and bars the area has to offer. Despite the central location, the loft is very quiet, and the balconies are perfect for catching morning sun while sipping coffee. The host was wonderful, too! We highly recommend this place.

Peaceful and Private.

We really enjoyed our time here. The place was comfortable and quiet. The balcony was very enjoyable, we especially enjoyed the birds . The Carriage House is easy walking distance to restaurants and nice shops. Apalachicola is a wonderful place to visit and our stay there was great. There is a lot to do in the area. Fishing, museums and a short drive to beautiful beaches at St George island. The WW 2 museum at Carrabelle was very special to see.

Location Location Location

We were in town for the Porch Fest. We wanted to stay in town so we could walk and ride bikes everywhere. This was a perfect location. Close to everything. The rental was very clean and cute. You must be able to walk up stairs. This could be a concern if you are not able to carry luggage or had a lot of items to carry up. This did not impact us. We enjoyed the common areas and enjoyed visiting on the porch with others.
