Carrabelle Bottle House — Attraction in Carrabelle

What an amazing random "gem" of an attraction in the middle of this unsuspecting hospitable little beach side town. Carrabelle was my randomly but carefully picked birthday destination this past December. And the bottle house was my last destination in this nice town before taking the drive back home. Surprisingly it was hard for me to spot the night before when I was looking for it. Definitely a country town, there are no street lights in this neighborhood. Even with Google maps it eluded me, so I would suggest plotting it out before dark, especially if you are used to street lights and if you were traveling alone, like myself. So I saw it in the daytime, but it was just as amazing I'm sure. Very unsuspecting looking, so look for the bottle lighthouse! This guy who is an artist and was an art teacher just decided to retire here with his wife, looked to her one day and told her he wanted to build a bottle house, bought this property and the rest is history! It is his personal property with his house just on the other side, so being respectful is appreciated. They have a very sweet poodle that came right up to me while I was looking around =) I was alone, but depending on the season I'm sure it gets a bit more populated. No entrance fee, just a donation if you feel persuaded to do so. I'm so glad I got to see this before I left Carrabelle, it made my trip that much...

Beautiful koi fish 🐠 Wish I was closer to volunteer to help clean it up a little. I imagine donations aren't ample, but I would offer the suggestion to put a locked box instead of the glass jar out in the open.. I did NOT feel secure leaving a donation in the glass jar. Just a friendly suggestion.. overall, it's a free attraction & someone talented definitely did their thing with this...
