Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Franklin County

We had a lovely stay at this Airbnb. Although outside downtown Apalachicola, it was just a short drive, and the location was very peaceful. The decor of the cottage was a highlight for us - we could tell that the owners took great care in decorating and we loved the nautical and beachy theme. We also enjoyed sitting on the front porch with a glass of wine in the early evening. Sandra kept in touch with us - letting us know the unit was available for check-in early and making sure everything was okay during our stay. We love the Apalachicola and St. George Island area, and this was a lovely base from which to explore it.

The house was in near new condition and very well appointed with everything needed and more. The location is a short walk to beach access and is located on the bike/walk path. Our group loves the area and Patrick's place was perfect and super clean. Patrick was a great communicator and we appreciated that so much. I highly recommend to other guests.

We had such a great stay at Wally’s Coastal Cottage. The pictures of Wally’s place do not do it justice! We loved the old Florida charm of this cottage and it was very comfortable. The backyard area was comfy and private. We were a quick drive or bike ride from the center of Apalach’s historic downtown with its cool restaurants, bars and music and a 15 minute drive from the beautiful beaches of St. George Island. We also were lucky enough to meet Wally! Highly recommend his Coastal Cottage.

Our family had a great time at Molcie's. The location is very conveniently located near the beach. It takes no time at all to get there by foot, even while carrying beach chairs and pulling a wagon. The place was as described and checking in/out was a breeze. I love that she allowed us to bring our fur babies for an extremely fairly priced dog fee. We will be back!

Ben’s place was absolutely fantastic. The house was fully stocked with everything, great fishing, tons of outside space and right down the road from everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay or a better host! We will be back!

I’ve stayed at a lot of Airbnb properties and this one is my favorite. The host Lee is very responsive and great guy. The Kayaks were much appreciated and the fishing was amazing. We caught 5 reds, 3 trout and a few flounder. When you first pull in there is a huge bald eagle nest in the pine tree. We saw the eagle 3 times and 2 fox. Awesome memories made and we will be back for sure.

We were looking for a quiet place to enjoy widlife, sea, sun and beach with our 2 boys and we found Marcin's Sea La Vie House. That's was a perfect match. This house is very nice, well maintained, well equipped and well organized. I could spend all my time taking pictures of Dolphins and birds from the wonderful porch. We enjoyed being there and we will certainly be back.

Carrie’s place was beautiful and spotless! There was anything and everything available that you could possibly need…lots of beach towels, beach chairs, floats, nice beach cart, and the house was stocked with anything you need! The beach was less than a 5 minute walk away. The house felt private because it was surrounded by trees and shrubs. Carrie’s local recommendations were spot on and very helpful. Would absolutely stay here again!

Heidi’s Bee Hive was amazing! It’s beautiful. The kitchen has everything you might want. The bed and furniture is very comfortable. It is clean and inviting. The decor is very well done and themed perfectly for the Apalach scene. Heidi and her husband were very clear with the simple directions and very open with communication. 10/10! Great place! I highly recommend!

Allison proved to be an exceptional host. Her rental was situated in an ideal location and met all of our requirements. I needed to communicate with Allison on a few occasions, and she was consistently courteous and prompt in her responses. This rental merits a five-star rating.

Enjoyed our stay as always!Didn’t see the bald eagles this time…boo. Thank you for your hospitality!

The Beach Cottage #1 was perfect for our family of three, and could have accommodated more of us. The pool was sparkling clean, the picnic tables were a perfect addition. Emil was very easy to communicate with and easily helped us add an extra night to our stay, and Laura was so kind and friendly! The location absolutely can’t be beat, as the beach access is just steps from the driveway. We cannot wait to return to Beach Bum Cottages, and highly recommend this stay to other families!

We enjoyed exploring the area. Visited plenty of great beaches and charming local shops nearby. Overall, our experience was wonderful. The location is rich in history, another fascinating part of staying here.

Has the nostalgic Old Florida Vibe... love this place and town. Would diffentely return!

Our family was fortunate to have booked both units upstairs in adjoining apts. All was comfortable, well-appointed, everything we needed was in walking distance. Donna was superb to work with. Would stay again!

Super relaxing spring break! We loved the condo, loved the huge backyard. Condo had everything we needed, dishes/towels/cleaning supplies/pool toys, goggles, board games.. very welcoming feel. Went fishing most of our trip, and went to fill out the guest books d a friend showed up, after we left, we realized we never finished our journaling! We’ll fix that on the next trip. Definitely staying again!

The second story condo, was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for two older adults bicycling in the area on a short stay. There are two pleasant and private balconies. One overlooks the bay and the other overlooks the boat docking area. We enjoyed sitting at the table on the bay balcony for snacks, coffee and the big water view. Pleasant breeze and few annoying sand gnats. You do have the same expansive view from the inside as well, which is a nice retreat. This gated grounds area has several different buildings. All seem well kept and it was very quiet on our weekday stay. It was convenient to the bike trails we wanted to ride and the two state parks, Bald Point and Ocklocknee, that we wanted to visit. The internet access was adequate for us, we did have to reconnect occasionally. The place was spotlessly clean and we enjoyed our stay in a low key part of old Florida that is fast disappearing. Would return for another visit. Easy place to like.

probably the cleanest Airbnb we've been to.. but no open restaurants in area... if I have any suggestions it would be to replace sofa with something more comfortable

We booked Gone Fishing with Marlinda. She called to inform us that our room wasn't ready (no fault of hers) and asked if we would be interested in staying at her other place (Gone Fishing 2) or if we wanted to wait for it to be cleaned properly. We agreed to stay at Gone Fishing 2 because it wasn't a problem for us. The place was VERY clean and smelled amazing upon entering. This little place had literally EVERYTHING you could want or need! We cooked breakfast every morning and enjoyed the tea/coffee that was provided. There is room to park in front of the house if need be. The screened in porch was nice as well. We would definitely stay here again and wouldn't be afraid to try the Gone Fishing house. Marlinda is very responsive and handles her houses very well! 10/10 would recommend!

We had a wonderful time at Julio‘s condo. It was quite spacious and perfect for a couple. It was very clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. I was just a short distance from the beach and on the quiet end of the island.

It was a good stay. The pictures were accurate. It was well supplied and had everything we needed.

We always are happy with Sandy Beach Properties! Another wonderful stay with a beautiful, clean, and well organized trip! We had all instructions prior to arriving and everything went smoothly! Thank you for the great experience!

Ruth is a wonderful host, very responsive, kind and helpful with any questions you have about Saint George. It’s a beautiful place especially if you are looking to be in walking distance of restaurants, shopping, and other family attractions. The rentals are walking distance too. It is above a Subway, which I didn’t mind and neither did my kids that were down there everyday we were there. Lol! The management there was very nice upon arrival letting us know if there was anything we needed to let them know which was very kind. It’s very quiet at night. We enjoyed our stay and recommend.
