This was our first time in Apalachicola and we had the best weekend! The Oystertown Cottage was clean, accommodating, and within walking distance to all the bars, restaurants, and shops.
The hosts were very communicative and helpful.
We will 100% be back!

Second we’ve stayed at oyster cottage and just love! Clean, bright, well cared for, cozy- small cottage but rooms nicely done and well maintained- so easy to get around town from this location! Definitely a favorite place to stay in Apalachiacola plus we were able to bring our dog- a bonus!

4th or 5th time we've stayed at the yellow cottage and it was perfect as always. Comfy bed, perfect location and having the washer/dryer is wonderful. We always buy catfood and feed the neighborhood kitties. The black and white one is especially affectionate! We'll be back to stay again.

First time to Apalachicola and Oyster Cottage was a perfect location to enjoy all the charm of the area. Walking distance to downtown for shopping and restaurants. Close access to bridge for beaches and exploring Eastpoint and St. George Island.

This property was exactly as described, appropriately equipped, and in the perfect location for staying in Apalach and walking anywhere you’d like to go.
We ran into one minor snafu checking in and the property owner was quick respond and resolved the issue almost immediately so we were able to enjoy our stay without issue.
The only item travelers should be aware of is that there is an adjoining property that can be rented separately by another party. This would have been awkward for sharing the patio space, walkways, and gated entrance with strangers but an amazing arrangement if you are traveling with friends.
Bottom line: recommended for sure! We hope to stay here again.

I thought this cottage was perfect for our short Christmas visit. It worked out great for my dog and I. The fenced in area was a great surprise that allowed my dog some exploration space. I’ll be booking again!

I am actually honored to write this review. I have used VRBO on numerous occasions and I can honestly say this was THE BEST rental I have ever had. Small cottage feel that was extremely clean with new appliances, well appointed, with comfortable bet. All within a very easy walk around town. The owner has thought about everything to make you very comfortable. I will definitely be returning to this location for an extended stay. Don’t hesitate to rent this property!! Thank you to the owner!!!

The rental had a lot of charm from earlier times with modern amenities. It was well equiped with all we needed. The surrounding garden was great as well as areas to sit outside. Two blocks from downtown and pet friendly.
10.0
The property is nice, in a great location, packed with history. Renters need to know there is another rental on the same property. Curtains or shades need to be placed on kitchen and dining room windows. Guest walking by can see right in.

This cottage is well stocked with everything you need for your stay. Very clean inside. The outside garden area needs some attention. We did not know that there is two different rentals inside the property. This would be an issue with our two dogs not being able to walk inside the enclosed garden area.

Great location which is why we chose it… Just a short walk to downtown Apalachicola. The bed was extremely comfortable, nice and quiet, we were blessed with not having anyone in the house behind us on the same property. Overall, very enjoyable, property could definitely use a little bit of TLC in regards to the exterior garden area.

We love this little cottage. Our 2nd stay and will not be our last. Great location to get to all the bars and restaurants. We parked the car and didn’t get back in until we checked out.

My husband and I rented the Oystertown Cottage and our friends rented the Oystertown Loft behind the cottage. This is the second time my husband and I have rented the cottage and we have loved it both times. It is perfect for the two of us and total bonus it is pet friendly. The location is perfect and we love the cottage/property. We didn't have a need to contact the property manager since we have stayed there before but they have always been available if we needed them. I look forward to staying here again next year for my birthday.

The house is very clean, and the overall is good. The courtyard is beautiful. It's just kitchen and shower the water is too small.

Clean quiet cottage near restaurants and brewery. Walking distance to museums and water. Loved sitting on the porch with coffee and walking along the river. Watching Santa and the Grinch come to town via a shrimp boat was great.

My wife and I enjoyed our recent stay, the cottage has a great location and all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay.

The cottage is in a perfect location 1 block from downtown. The rooms are very spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. My only negative would be the one bedroom is right off the livingroom and there is no bedroom door. This makes it tricky when you have a spouse who goes to bed earlier than you do. I would recommend adding a door to the bedroom. Otherwise, the cottage is very comfortable.
10.0
Well stocked kitchen, clean linens, proximity to downtown was great, and tons of beautiful vegetation surrounding property. There was a slight musty odor indoors that was present throughout stay - reminded me of an old lake cabin, but overall it didn’t bother me. All in all, the stay was great and I would stay at the property again.
