The public beach is less than 5 miles away and is a maximum 8 minute drive.
The neighborhood is quiet with only the sound of crowing roosters and children playing. "The Pearl" is located in a residential fishing neighborhood so you will see boats and other fishing and hunting equipment in some of the yards. This is old Florida living. No two houses look alike and trailers share the same street as historic homes. This is a quiet neighborhood and the roosters are the loudest residents, which you cannot hear from inside the house. Bicycle, kayaks, paddle board, and boat rentals are all available in downtown Carrabelle as well as charter boat rentals.
Dog Island is short distance by boat and trips can be arranged to spend the day shelling, crabbing or fishing on the sparsely populated barrier island.

Other things to note
Carrabelle is the entryway to The Forgotten Coast. There are no traffic lights or fast food restaurants. There is one grocery store and a wonderful seafood market along with the local restaurants ranging from BBQ to Korean food and of course fresh seafood. Food truck eating is at its finest all along The Forgotten Coast. If you are looking for 'Old Florida" without all the artificial glitz of the tourist beaches this is the place for you.
Carrabelle is surrounded by National forest which make for great hiking, birding and hunting. It also means that wildlife is abundant and sometimes makes it way into the neighborhood. You will see and hear hawks, owls and other birds of prey. Deer, foxes and raccoons and white pelicans are often spotted. The forest also host black bears which we strive to live with peacefully. It is important not to leave food or garbage outside of a secured bin, and never leave your dog or small children unattended, even in the fenced yard. There has been very few bear attacks in this area and we would like to keep it that way. There is literature in the cottage about living with black bears. Please read it and follow the guidelines. I love seeing the bears and have never had a problem with them.
