While you’re there

Check out some of our favorite parts of Forgotten Coast. Sourced from our local teams who live there.

Bayside Coffee Co.

The perfect pick-me-up for exploring the Forgotten Coast—this Eastpoint roastery proves good things come in small batches.

Franklin Cafe & Parlor Bar

Southern breakfast done right—biscuits smothered in sausage gravy, bagels piled with smoked salmon, and a setting as inviting as the food.

Indian Pass Raw Bar

A local favorite with a laid-back vibe and fresh Gulf seafood. Grab a drink from the cooler, settle in, and enjoy the kind of easygoing meal where strangers become friends.

Oyster City Brewing Company

Brewing Gulf Coast tales in a glass since 2014, where every beer is shaped by the same waters that shaped this storied town.

FatDaddy's Smokehouse & Grill

Nestled along the coastline of Saint George Sound right off scenic Highway 98, this rustic smokehouse serves up hearty barbecue and Southern hospitality to locals and travelers alike.

Blue Parrot Oceanfront Cafe

What started as a tiny beach stand is now St. George Island's go-to for fresh local seafood—where owner George might be cutting your catch in the kitchen or out on the bay catching tomorrow's special.

Crooked River Grill

A hidden gem serving elevated takes on local shrimp and steaks, seriously generous cocktails, and golf course views that'll have you ordering another round.

Owl Cafe

A downtown Apalachicola institution since 1900, dishing out warm hospitality and Forgotten Coast favorites. Come for the fried oysters, stay for the nostalgia (and definitely the crab dip).

St. Joe Bay Buffer Preserve

A vital preserve for the pine flatwoods, coastal scrub, marsh, and tidal flats that keep St. Joseph Bay pristine—and its famous seagrass beds and marine life thriving.

We loved the house. The location was close to the beach and close to businesses for groceries etc. Everything was clean and consistent with the information on VRBO. There were a few things that were broken and unusable but otherwise most everything was in good shape. Some things were provided like dish pods and laundry pods but you should definitely bring these items if you are staying for longer than a day or two. Also the description should say that there are two separate living areas that can only be accessed if you go outside to get to the other one. We would definitely stay there again. Very special needs friendly for our autistic son as well.
