Photos and Description of the Alligator Point vacation house rental
3BR/2BA Beachfront Home

White Pelican: 3 BR, 2 BA home. Sits on huge Gulf front gulf-to-bay lot for water view from every window of the house. Huge deck and screen porch on the gulf, overlooking beautiful sand dunes and private beach. Front deck overlooks Alligator Bay and natural forest area. Beds for 7, but can sleep up to 12 with couches (extra charge for more than 7 people.) Air conditioned, dishwasher, washer/dryer, cable TV, DVD, VCR, gas grill, fully furnished, except linens. Computer provided with cable internet with wireless capability.

Amenities: Hardwood floors throughout, two queen beds, bunk bed with double and a single; recently remodeled; tile kitchen counters and tile baths; microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher, fully furnished kitchen, ceiling fans, cable TV and VCR, gas grill; 16 foot wide glass doors look out on huge screen porch, private beach.

Activities: Very quiet area. No theme parks, roller coasters, kiddie parks, etc. Shopping within 30-45 minutes; trips to Carrabelle, Wakulla, Apalachicola, East Point, Tallahassee are popular. Deep sea fishing boats leave from several local marinas. Wonderful restaurants within 15 minutes drive. Fishing from surf in front of the house this year yielded Spanish mackerel, flounder, whiting, and Redfish.

Area: Alligator Point is a narrow spit of land about 4 miles long. Most maps don't list it. Years ago, the area was called 'Lighthouse Point' before it was developed. Our house is at the most narrow part, thus the gulf-to-bay location. Our back yard is the Gulf of Mexico; our front yard is Alligator Bay. Nice easy 200 yard sand path to the beach....the bay is accessible in the front of the house and there is actually a nice little white sand beach there too.

Highway 98 is the main highway that runs along the coast. Alligator Drive (Highway 370) cuts down to the peninsula just west of the big bridge over Ochlocknee Bay. Light shopping is available within 15 minutes of the house.

We stayed at the White Pelican in April 2010. The house has been well maintained. The house is very nice house with a large screen porch and deck and large kitchen and living area. It's a good house for families with young children.

We had a positive experience communicating with the owner. Owner was responsive and very easy to work with through email and phone.

The beach is beautiful. We saw a black-tip shark, sting rays, dolphins, and crabs. Alligator Point is a great beach for a family trip with young children.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The views are awesome. The house is located right on the beach. The location is on the narrowest part of Alligator point, and you can see the bay from the front of the house. The large screened in porch on the back of the house facing the gulf is great. We spent early mornings and evenings rocking in the chairs listening to the ocean and enjoying the breeze. This was one of our all time favorite vacations. It was quiet, secluded and private. We highly recommend this property. The owners are also very friendly and great to work with. We plan to come back next year.

We stayed here 2 years ago and loved it. It is a very unique location. You see the gulf out the back and the bay out the front. Fishing is unbelievalble! Reds, mackerel, catfish, black drum, sheepshead and more. There is a great screen porch off the back and you are steps away from the water. I highly recommend this house!
