MATLACHA, Fla. – Leah Brantingham of Sugar Sand Beach RV Resort said after Hurricane Ian they were able to assist the Coast Guard, as well as the Cajun Navy, in getting supplies out to the island by using the resort as a hub, according to a report by Paulette LeBlanc at pineisland-eagle.com.

“As soon as we were done helping the community, we were able to get back in and start doing recovery on own property and I’m happy to say that we’ve come a long way and it’s nearly complete. We’re still renovating the interior and finishing up our seawall and dock,” Brantingham said.

Immediately following the storm, she said, there were locals who needed somewhere to go. This encouraged the resort to open its doors, which they did, although the resort was not yet fully operational.

“At that time, we didn’t even have the power and water back on the island yet — we had people boon-docking with generators, just to give them a place to set up until the road was open,” Brantingham said.

Finally back to water, power and full utilities, she said, they are well on the road to recovery.
