Labelle is a small country town with a beautiful downtown historic district, river access, and plenty of food options. There is Interstate access from the main road so expect to see big trucks and tractor trailers. Please be attentive to the change in speed limit, as law enforcement takes that seriously. The people are friendly and the town is overall very nice.

여행 팁

교통편

You definitely need a car to get around

The closest towns nearby are LaBelle, FL and Clewiston, FL, so make sure you budget at least 20 minutes to get into "civilization"!
준비물

You're in the countryside

Make sure that you pick up all of your essentials before you make it out to the property. The nearest grocery store is a 20 minute drive, so be sure to grab everything you need for your cozy cabin getaway. The nearby gas station has emergency essentials, in case you need a snack or a phone charger on the fly.
관습과 문화

Floridian advice to live by

A hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and bug spray are always recommended. We try and keep bug spray available for our guests, but it never hurts to be safe and pick some up. Apply BEFORE you think you need it- otherwise its going to be aloe vera and itch-cream that you're in need of.
