About this house rental
Wake up to the bay. Fish from your own dock. Relax to the sound of the sea breeze.
Welcome to Blue Crab Cottage, one of the rare waterfront vacation rental homes in Apalachicola.
Set directly along Apalachicola Bay, this charming ground-level home offers the opportunity to experience coastal Florida at a slower, more peaceful pace. Spend your mornings watching the sunrise from the waterfront swing, your afternoons fishing from the private dock, and your evenings relaxing with friends and family on the enormous screened porch.
With three bedrooms, generous living space, a private dock, and beautiful bayfront surroundings, Blue Crab Cottage is designed for an unforgettable extended stay.
Your Waterfront Retreat
The enormous screened porch is the heart of the home.
Enjoy a cup of coffee while the bay wakes up, gather around the outdoor dining area for a meal, or curl up on the bayfront swing and watch the sunrise over Apalachicola Bay.
The calming sea breezes and waterfront views make it easy to forget the outside world and simply enjoy your time together.
Fish, Boat & Enjoy the Bay
Bring your fishing gear and make the most of your private waterfront location.
