Located Across the street from Wakulla County Courthouse, and across the lawn from the Courtyard’s Pelican Cottage, and neighbor to Southern Oaks Realty just off of Crawdordville Hwy. This early 1900’s cottage is a unique piece of history with modern comforts. Close to everything in and around Crawdordville. We love pets, but we're not currently accepting pets at this time.

Zap Zap Thai Kitchen, Taste of Mexico, and Subway are across the street, and Myra Jean's, Lex & Roll, and the Breakfast Station are just a short drive. If you love coffee like we do, try Atlas, Brewed by the Dude, or Wild Ox. They each are excellent in unique ways and serve locally roasted coffee. Please enjoy seasonal Meyer lemons, kumquats, blueberries, crab apples, pears, persimmons, & figs from the orchard. Paddle the spring fed Wakulla River from TNT canoe rental 15 minutes southeast or visit Wakulla Springs State park for a step back in time.

Amazing Cottage
My experience at the Oyster Cottage was outstanding, thanks to the property's exceptional cleanliness, attention to detail, and commitment to providing a 5-star experience. As one of the best VRBO properties I've stayed at, the Oyster Cottage is fully equipped with everything you might need, from kitchen utensils to toiletries. The property's location is also ideal for exploring the surrounding areas, and I appreciated its proximity to local attractions. The only issue I encountered was with the temperature, which was extremely cold. However, I notified the owners, and they quickly resolved the issue within two hours. Their prompt response and commitment to ensuring my comfort were truly impressive. Overall, I highly recommend the Oyster Cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay in the area. Its exceptional quality and ideal location make it an ideal choice for anyone visiting the area.

Beautiful Historical Building
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was interesting to learn a little history about the cottage. It was right across from the beautiful Wakula Courthouse which was so pretty. The only negative for us...and the owners can't help this...but the traffic off High Dr. was extremely busy, and again, the owners can't help this but some of the vehicles were crazy loud, and we didn't sleep well at all the first night. The second night wasn't as bad but we just kinda laughed it off as part of the experience. The host was wonderful, and our stay was nice.

Centrally located for nature submersion opportunities
This cottage has been very tastefully restored and updated. It was centrally located for our sojourns to Tallahassee, the St. Mark's Refuge, St. George Island, and several State Parks. Although we ate at "home" there are several restaurants close by. Also, Winn Dixie is really close for groceries. The traffic was a bit noisy for us since we don't hear much at home.

Perfect cozy little cottage.
My family and I stayed at the Oyster Cottage for my son’s graduation from FSU. The hosts were very responsive to all of my questions and replied right away. The cottage was immaculate! The hosts even stocked the full size fridge with refreshments for us to enjoy upon arrival. Coffee was provided as well, which was thoughtful and very much appreciated! Would definitely stay here again. ~ Corrado Family

We found this treasure and are so happy we did. Me and my parents came to Crawfordville to visit friends for a couple of days and Oyster Cottage was perfect! Cozy inviting and so clean. We had everything we needed and then some. The location was perfect for us and the hosts were amazing. The restaurants we tried that they recommended were yummy. Will definitely stay again.

FSU parents weekend stay
Hosts were very communicative prior to check in, making sure we had all info we needed prior to check in. Stayed here during FSU parents weekend (most places in Tally were rented or overpriced). Only a 30 minute drive from FSU campus. Super clean, well appointed property, which was exactly as pictured and advertised. We watched some college football on the big TV, which had a nice picture. I’d recommend this place to friends and would stay here again.

Wonderful Oyster Cottage
What a beautiful place! I loved the history of the Oyster Cottage. What a fabulous job Mark and Rena did restoring the home. The location of the Oyster Cottage was a perfect launching point for all the areas of the Forgotten Coast that I wanted to explore. Unfortunately my much anticipated vacation was cut short by Hurricane Idalia. Kevin was gracious to offer to extend my stay if I felt safe hunkering down. I plan on revisiting and would love to stay at the Oyster Cottage to resume my explorations of the Forgotten Coast (love this area). The Oyster Cottage has been one of my favorite VRBO rentals! Thank you again Kevin and Rena! Joy Marie
