Escape to Location X, a private Gulf-front retreat on Florida’s beautiful Forgotten Coast near Carrabelle. Set on 1.2 private waterfront acres, this newly renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home combines authentic Old Florida charm with modern comforts, incredible sunsets, and direct access to some of Florida’s most unspoiled coastal waters.

Whether you’re coming to fish, boat, scallop, kayak, paddleboard, or simply relax by the water, Location X is the perfect place to slow down, unplug, and experience the natural beauty of Florida’s Forgotten Coast.

WATERFRONT LIVING

Step outside and enjoy an approximately 300-foot private dock extending into the Gulf—perfect for fishing, boating, watching dolphins and other marine life, or taking in an unforgettable sunset.

Guests may tie their boat alongside the dock during their stay, and the property offers plenty of room for boat and trailer parking. A fish-cleaning station with running water and a hose is located at the end of the dock, making it easy to clean the day’s catch or rinse your boat after a day on the water.

Guests also have access to one kayak and two paddleboards, along with life jackets, for exploring the surrounding waters.

After a day on the Gulf, rinse off salt and sand in the private enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water, fire up the Weber gas grill, relax in the waterfront hot tub, or enjoy a drink on the deck while watching another beautiful Forgotten Coast sunset.
