wildlife, and great birding. Explore St. Vincent's Island across the
Pass. Bring your kayaks, canoes, fishing poles, binoculars, and camera. Excellent
fishing and crabbing, shelling and long walks on miles of pristine
beach. Private and peaceful.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
Why Kids Love It
The kids love staying in the "tree house!" They enjoy being so close to the birds and squirrels that visit the property. They also love that the deck goes all around the house. No matter the day, they can always find either sun or shade, whichever they prefer.
Enjoy your vacation at this fabulous round house in a tree-filled
setting, tastefully decorated, located on the tip of Indian Pass.
Indian Pass is located at the extreme west end of Apalachicola Bay
where it flows into the Gulf of Mexico. This conflux of fresh and
saltwater makes one the most fertile estuarine areas of the world.
While the area was settled by Native Americans for thousands of
years and then again by the early European explorers modern
civilization has conveniently skipped us over.
Long Known as Florida's 'Forgotten Coast' most of the inhabitants
here have fins or feathers. No high rises or motels but miles of
unspoiled beaches, succulent oysters, world class fishing and
spectacular sunsets. Beachcombers are greeted by miles of shells,
fossilized shark teeth and pottery shards from our earliest
inhabitants.

Carol M.Comfortable and Relaxing
We love staying at the Barnacle, which is very clean, comfortable and well maintained. We love watching the great variety of birds in the trees surrounding the Barnacle. And the quiet, peaceful Gulf sand beach is close by via the private boardwalk over the sand dunes. The hosts are welcoming and wonderful communicators, prompt and responsive to any requests. We would definitely recommend the Barnacle to others.
