Windin' Down...Bay Front, Pool, Nearby Pier & Beach in Panacea

Our comfortable 3 bedroom/2 1/2 bath townhouse is located in George�s Lighthouse Point on
Ochlockonee Bay, 40 miles south of Tallahassee on Hwy. 98. Right out our back door, we have a cozy
little deck, furnished with a table and chairs and the convenient shade of a retractable awning.
This is the good life that we all dream about! Consider this your own private paradise and kick
back and leave your troubles behind. You can start windin' down right now!
Right across the way from our front door is the marina area. The community pool and tennis courts
are right across the parking lot. Also, just a few steps away is Angelo's Restaurant, regularly
voted as one of the "Top 100 Restaurants in Florida". Newly remodeled (courtesy of Hurricane
Dennis), Angelo's boasts mouth watering seafood (and other dishes), with indoor seating and casual
outdoor seating right over the water!
We offer 1500 sq. ft. of living area, which includes 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, den, kitchen, dining
area, deck and balcony. The family area is furnished with comfortable den furniture and is open to
the dining area and the kitchen. The dowstairs bedroom is furnished with a double bed and has
access to the half bath. The master bedroom and bath are upstairs. It is furnished with a queen-
size bed and offers an awesome view of the bay. Enjoy your morning coffee in privacy as you step
from the bedroom out the back door onto the balcony. You can spend hours viewing wildlife on the
bay or just enjoy watching the boats go by. The other bedroom is also upstairs and has a a bunk bed
and 2 single beds (for a total of 4 twins), with a full bath in the hallway. Our accommodations
will sleep 8 people comfortably. Perfect for an average size group or family.
The fishing is as good as it gets in this area. You can fish in the bay, head out for deep-sea
fishing, or go down the river for fresh water fishing. We have it all!!! If you bring your boat,
you can launch it at the boat launch on Mashes Sands Rd. (about 1 mi. away) and you can rent a boat
slip for $10 a day. If you don�t have a boat, you can book a fishing charter with your choice of
licensed captains, who are ready to take you out for an experience that you won�t soon forget!
Another local attraction are the beaches. The closest beach is Mashes Sands in Panacea (less than 1
mi.). It offers a beautiful, small beach and a fishing pier. The beach is located on the bay and
is pretty shallow for a good ways out, offering safety for small children and a great opportunity
for shelling. Next are the gorgeous beaches at Alligator Point and Bald Point State Park (about 7
mi.), where you can enjoy sunbathing, snorkeling, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, hiking,
bird watching and nature study. Within a few minutes drive are two of the nation�s TOP TEN RATED
BEACHES, St. George Island State Park, near Apalachicola, and St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, near
Port St. Joe. Both parks contain miles of undeveloped beaches, emerald waters and white sugar sand.
Other nearby attractions include St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, an unspoiled barrier island
just offshore from the mouth of the Apalachicola River in the Gulf of Mexico. The island is a haven
for endangered and threatened species, including bald eagles, wood storks, sea turtles, indigo
snakes, gopher tortoises and red wolves. It is accessible only by boat. A favorite is Wakulla
Springs State Park, one of the world's deepest freshwater springs, with swimming, nature boat rides
and glass bottom boats. Wakulla Springs is known as the shooting location for several Tarzan movies,
Creature from the Black Lagoon and Airport �77. From the river boat and glass bottom boat tours,
you can see alligators, many species of wading birds, water fowl, fish, turtles, and snakes, in and
among the crystal clear waters emerging from the depth of the springs. Kids love diving from the
diving platform into the refreshing spring waters, which remain a constant 68-70 degrees year
round. The St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge features the St. Marks Lighthouse, and offers a
habitat for all kinds of Florida wildlife. (Bald eagles are often spotted here - so keep your eyes
peeled!)
So the guys want to go fishing and you ladies don�t ...NO PROBLEM! While they are catching speckled
trout, Spanish mackerel, grouper, redfish (the list goes on), you can visit historic Apalachicola.
Once a bustling sea port, this quaint village of about 5,000 still boasts a large shrimp fleet, a
downtown shopping area with antiques, boutiques and local art, and beautiful restored houses from a
bygone era. Once the third largest cotton port along the Gulf Coast, the Apalachicola/East Point
area still harvests and processes 90% of the oysters consumed in Florida.
Locally caught seafood is prepared in the many fine restaurants located in Panacea, Carrabelle, and
Apalachicola. If you prefer to cook it yourself, fresh shrimp, oysters, and the catch of the day are
available in the seafood houses dotted along the coast from Panacea to Port St. Joe.
