About this property

"Reel Simple" a bay view home one block from the Gulf of Mexico

Relax with the family at this peaceful place to stay. "Reel Simple" is a 2 bedroom/2-bathroom mobile home. This mobile home is located in Eastpoint, Florida on the Forgotten Coast. We are minutes away from the beach on St. George Island or shopping in Apalachicola. Or, just enjoy relaxing on the hammock in the large screened in porch. Located one block from Hwy 98. Why pay high prices staying on the island when you can stay just minutes away for far less?

Outside Looks Can Be Deceiving

This is a great place. Doesn’t look like much when you first see it but the accommodations were outstanding. Wonderful look, feel, with all the creature comforts you could ask for. Also a great location close to the gulf water and St George Island beaches and fun beachside restaurants. Our host Chris provided excellent checking communication.

Close to the beach and very affordable

My stay included my 2 dogs. We all loved it! The fenced yard is perfect as it allowed them to play and be safe. The house has everything I needed for a relaxing vacation and getting to St George Island beach is just a short drive. I can see myself staying here again.

About the host

Host profile image
My family and I have lived in Eastpoint for the past two years, but have visited for long as I can remember. Reel Simple is a very special place once owned by my parents when they first moved to the area. We live on the property on Highway 98 behind Reel Simple and are always available for your needs.

Why they chose this property

This property has been in the family for over 30 years and we love the laid back lifestyle it provides our family.

What makes this property unique

This home boasts a large screened in deck with seating and a hammock. We have witnessed bears, foxes, rabbits, ospreys, owls and bald eagles while enjoying this peaceful property.
