Visit 'Stork Nest' for your relaxing beach vacation!

A sweeping stairway takes you to the main level of this thoughtfully furnished beach retreat. The large, covered deck space is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee as you watch the sun rise over the Gulf. Ocean views and the soothing sound of the sea lull your senses as yourelax into the comfortable outdoor seating.

When you’re not at the beach, you can enjoy a family movie on the large, flat screen TV with Blu-ray player or lounge comfortably with a book or indulge in a board game or puzzle. The restful and beautifully furnished living room shares a gas fireplace with the dining space that seats up to 6, and the bright and airy kitchen offers additional seating at the breakfast bar. Our well-equipped kitchen with brand-new stainless steel appliances has room for multiple cooks and one can easily access the covered deck from here. Panoramic window views of the Gulf greet you in every room of this shared living space.

A split bedroom floor plan allows for the utmost of privacy and relaxation in the evenings. The master bedroom is located just off of the living room and boasts a King-sized four-poster bed with swivel rocker, flat screen TV, a private bathroom and access to a screened porch. The spacious master bath has a vanity space, large walk-in closet, soaker bathtub and separate tiled shower. The screened porch overlooks the driveway and pool area, and is a great spot for an outdoor card game or meal or to watch the colors of the changing sky at sunset.

On the opposite end of the home is a private Queen bedroom with view of the pool area, hall bathroom with combination tub/shower and laundry room with front-loading, full size washer and dryer.

A ground level bonus room offers a studio layout or “mother-in-law suite” with an additional living space with TV and Bluray player and half bath. This area has a private entrance and ground level deck space, there is no interior stairwell connecting this room with the upstairs of the home. Sleeping accommodations include a King sized bed and Queen sleeper sofa. A convenient morning kitchen offers plenty of counter space, mini-fridge, microwave, double sink and standard coffee maker. The full bath is located just off of the kitchen space and is accessible from the pool area as well. This is a great room for teenagers who need their own space!

Enjoy your own private swimming pool with ample deck and lounge space and hot/cold outdoor shower. The pool deck area offers a propane grill, with an additional park-style charcoal grill at the entrance of the home. A fish cleaning table is available just outside of the pool deck.

Situated on a corner lot, beach access via a community beach boardwalk is just a short and easy stroll from the property. Our home is also located just across from the paved bike path, for easy access to the Island center. We are also located about 3 blocks from the public East Hole access to the Apalachicola Bay. This is a great place to walk the dogs and explore the bayside of the Island. Up to 2 dogs 50lbs or less are allowed with advance approval, for a $200 + tax pet fee.

We look forward to hosting your family during your next beach getaway. Come and see why The Stork Nest delivers!

Please note, the outdoor lift is not available to guests.

    Very nice well decorated house. Being on main island road was a bit noisy at times. A lot of steps to negotiate. Would have been extremely helpful if the baggage lift was not locked out to guests. Microwave turntable was broken, the detergent door on dishwasher was broken, and only one of the two burners on gas grill worked. However kitchen was well appointed with various appliances and plenty of dishes and utensils.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay at The Stork Nest! It is a great home in a convenient location. It is a quick and easy walk to the nearest beach access. Our group consisted of 6 adults and one very busy and active baby who celebrated her first birthday during our stay. This home was perfect for us because the upstairs deck had a secure gate at the stairs, as well as a screened in area which was safe and secure. This helped give us peace of mind while enjoying the outdoor area. The kitchen was very nice and had plenty of dishes and pans for all of our needs. This is a great home!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. It would be so nice to be able to use the elevator to bring our things to the upper level. We are aging and have health issues and opted to stay in the lower suite because we couldn't carry suitcases up the stairs. We however enjoyed our stay with family. The house has had some nice upgrades, but the bathrooms were not as clean as I would have liked them. There was mold and soap scum in each of the showers and tub in the hall upstairs The gate to the pool needs repair and the hose and hose reel at the pool are way past time to be replaced. Each time we tried to wash the sand off the patio area the end of the hose reel kept exploding off the end from the water pressure. I finally just connected the hose to the water faucet and bypassed the reel after getting wet a couple times. It would have been a funny video for sure. We did not ask for sheets and blankets for the sofa bed but it would have been nice to have them at the house if someone would have chosen to sleep there. The Management crew at Forgotten Shores Properties was wonderful and responded to each one of our needs immediately. They are the very best at making your vacation stay everything you hoped for. It was a wonderful vacation.

    This is a wonderful property, with a nice private apartment on the lower level if that’s what you need. Built-in privacy for the special guest. The wraparound balcony was incredible. Unfortunately they do not allow access to the elevator. Conveniently located, bike trail right across the street. My only complaint, burn the sofa. The beds are great, the sofa has seen better days.
