Apalachicola Oyster House, new Dock

Fish camp studio style, pet friendly rustic beach cottage & former Oyster house refinery on the bay with a new dock w/ plenty of parking for your boat/trailer. There are crab traps at the dock that you can bait. We have a Yamaha gas powered golf cart that is available to rent for $40 a day as Apalachicola is a golf cart friendly town. Smoking is not allowed inside, but is allowed outside. Please keep the discarded butts from the yard please. ****😀 Amenities include a picnic table, Weber grill, and fire pit with Adirondack chairs and a yard swing for enjoying your time outside. The yard is large with a tropical feel with tropical foliage overlooking the bay. Conveniently located 1 mile from shopping and restaurants downtown.
******PETS****
House trained , well behaved fur babies stay for $25 (one charge for 2). Would like to keep pets at 2 max but will make considerations. The Oyster House has a nice, big yard if you have a furbaby. Just bring a tie out and a runner to keep them off of Hwy 98 as there is no fence. Please clean up waste after pups! 😀
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

This stay was amazing. With breath taking waterfront property with private dock to take in all the zen feels. The host was amazingly in communication and pet friendly. We saw dolphins from the dock, while we enjoyed watching the mullet jump all around us.

The Oyster House is just what it is! Really enjoyed my stay here. It is just as described, and super clean! The kitchen has everything you need to cook your catch from the dock. Loved catching speckled trout in the afternoons when the tide came in. Very short drive to town for anything you might need. The owners are very hospitable and fun to to be around! Plan to come back soon!

Absolutely love the oyster house! Crab galore! Ran traps off the dock. The view was of back of the island and an awesome view of the big water and a cute palm off the tip of the bay. St. George lit the islands shore. Very private and convenient to many things. Not to far to go enjoy downtown in the golf cart. Will be back.
