Wooden stilt houses in the Gulf of Mexico just offshore at the mouth of the Pithlachascotee River. Theses havens from the mainland have a rich history dating back about 90 years, and with only nine left their rebuilding after storms makes them symbols of perseverance.

They have been havens to fishermen, summer homes, fishing camps, weekend getaways.

Johnny Cash owned a home along the river leading to the stilt houses and often blew off steam at Des Little’s "camp," as the locals call them.
OMG ! This smelled so bad !!  Make sure to ask the Captain to approach from UPWIND if possible. Seriously... It just about sent a few of us "chumming" over the side-rail and I have a pretty strong constitution.

Great location on the Gulf. The staff was super pleasant and helpful and the room, while a bit dated, was spotless, very quiet, and provided full kitchen, as promised.
