Cabbage Key Inn — Roberta Cruger Like

Signing Your Dollar Bill on the Pub Wall in Cabbage Key, Florida

At the 1930’s Cabbage Key Inn overlooking serene Pine Island Sound, the rest of the world seems to dissolve. Arrive by boat (or air) on this 100-acre spread and imagine former guests Julia Roberts and Johnny Carson appreciating the secluded ambiance. Without cars or stores on Cabbage Key, guests revel in reading, writing, boating, fishing, or roaming the trails. Join the tradition initiated decades ago by local fisherman at the lively Dollar Bill Bar: sign a buck and plaster it to the wall, along with approximately 50,000 others. Built by writer Mary Roberts Rinehart, this spot supposedly inspired Jimmy Buffet’s “Cheeseburgers in Paradise.” Have one.
