    Floating docks, functional power pedestals. No fuel, laundry, or pump out. Single shared bathroom with shower, clean. Some current in Scipio Creek, so time your approach. The hotel has a pool you can use. The town is nice, lots of shops, several restaurants, some history. Groceries within walking distance. Lots more to see here than in Carrabelle if you are needing to spend time. Would stay here again, just because not much else to choose from in Apalachicola.

    This is a great place to get fuel and spend the night. Right off the ICW and well protected. Nice facilities and there is a restaurant on site. It was closed the night we were there. It was an easy 10-minute walk to downtown with options for dinner. Definitely someplace I will stop at again.

    The marina is ok. The star review is related to their deceptive pricing scheme. We called and were told $1.70/foot. When we checked in, the price was $3.75/foot including a .25 cent Boat US discount. The (very nice) clerk said the lower price was effective if we rented a room. We would not have reserved had the price been clear. It's a shame because the town is very attractive but at the high rate we weren't staying an extra night.

    WG Editor Comment:
    Rate posted on the Waterway Guide listing is $4.00/ft or $1.70/ft with room reservation.

    Great place to enjoy North Florida's coastal beauty.
    Facilities are well maintained and floating docks make overnight stays easy. WiFi, nice pool, and close to good restaurants...what more could you want?

    This marina is very well protected and we got good internet connection. Not too far from downtown, we enjoy this location.
