I got an email today from a hotel down there and figured that MANY of you qualify and thought you might be interested....
Before you ask:
Yes, it is my FIL hotel.
No, I cannot enter.
No, he did NOT ask me to Post here.
No, I do not have any connections at the hotel.... I get the High Season rate +10%, when I book a room, that is why I stay in Carrabelle.
