Great Spot to Explore Area!

Very clean and large space - set up like a hotel room with plenty of parking (including space for boat/trailer). We enjoyed being between Apalachicola area (30 min drive) and Panacea area (30 min drive) and being able to explore whole coastline. Would definitely stay again.

All was well but...

The AC/heater vent was unbelievably filthy and unhealthily. I dont understand why this is is possible. Pics avaliable

Perfect Getaway

My hubby and I booked this on a whim, looking for a quick last minute getaway. At the suggestion of our daughter, we chose Carabelle because it was quiet and far away from the crowds, traffic and wait times of the more popular Gulf Coast spots. We were not disappointed AT ALL. Our room was very clean and offered just what we needed. A comfortable bed, mini fridge, microwave and a clean bathroom. Although we had to drive to get to certain destinations, coming back to this comfortable room was ideal for us. We will return.

Cole’s Lodge // Perfect for a party of Two

My husband and I decided last minute to visit Carrabelle for the weekend. The Maui suite was very clean and we were allowed to check in early. Bed was comfortable, layout great, and as I said, very clean. We’d stayed there before, so knew what to expect. When we realized there was no toilet paper, I reached out to Jamie and TP was provided immediately. One thing that would be helpful is instructions on TV usage.

Great inexpensive stay and a beautiful town

The place was clean and roomy and reviewing our stay. It did have a squeaky bed and poor Wi-Fi but other than that it was fabulous.

Convenient spot

Our stay was comfortable and very close to what we wanted to do/see. It is tastefully decorated although the paint job in the bathroom could be improved. Being coffee lovers we appreciated the fact that we’re TWO coffee making options - a Keurig and a regular coffee maker! The refrigerator was really nice because it had a separate freezer that was big enough for our blue ice packs. There was also fresh ice ready for us! A couple of suggestions to make the stay even better: instructions for the AC, a toilet paper holder, and a rod somewhere to hang clothes. Also, if there is WiFi access (which would be nice) we weren’t aware of it nor had info on how to connect. But overall it was a comfortable and pleasant stay. Thanks!

Carrabelle

This was our first time to Carrabelle. The property was great. Very clean, easy to find, check in was super easy, and the owner was quick to respond. Really recommend eating at Marine Street Grill too.

Property ok but could have been better

Property was clean and as described but it could have been better. Only two small pillows on bed that were not supportive. Toilet tissue and bath soap were not furnished. Door was hard to unlock and lock. Thanks but no thanks on further visit.

Some polish needed

It was hard to get the front door lock open and locked The room was clean but very small with stickers still on every ceiling board and an inferior paint job with missed spots especially in the bathroom We signed up for pet friendly with vrbo and this property but after we had paid the owner told us we could not bring our pet. Housekeeping was extremely loud when they were next door cleaning This looks like an up and coming area with the street just being cut through all the way to the ocean. It has great potential just needs a little more polish.
