My bride and I wanted to get away and do a little fishing in St. Vincent bay , so we hooked up the boat and headed to Gufenauf. Perfect place to accommodate our needs. plenty of parking for the boat , close to the boat ramp. The house was well stocked with linen and quiet convent . Plenty of dishes in kitchen to cook a little for ourselves. Owner was extremely nice. and his quick response to our offer on his place was our decision maker. . By the way - we didn't catch any fish....... (fishin' not catching). But our view was incredible !!!!

Heaven on earth

I have just spent a week in heaven on earth. We fished, swam and saw where baby sea turtles crawled across the sand to the ocean. At night, we walked on the beach by the moonlight and sat by a campfire. Totally awesome.

Loved, loved, loved our stay here. We aren't crowded beach people and this was the perfect place for us. We practically had the beach to ourselves and it was July. The house was the perfect size for us and it was very quiet all around us. I think we brought the rain with us though. We never got to see one of those spectacular sunsets. Guess we will just have to go back!

Little Slice of Heaven on Earth!

We had the best vacation at Gufenauf and Indian Pass. It was our first trip to the area and we were amazed that on a holiday weekend we had the beach basically all to ourselves. Gufenauf was perfect for us. It was very accommodating with a dvd player, clean bath towels, a full kitchen, and outside shower for washing the sand off. From the house it is just a short walk down the path to the beautiful beach. We have found "our vacation spot" and can not wait till our next visit! Thanks Ralph for sharing your little slice of heaven with our family.

Had a fantastic time "Gufenauf"

This house was fantastic! Ralph was very helpful to me, as I literally waited until 2 days before to book this vacation (Luckily he had availability still)! The house was clean, literally about 150 feet to an almost private beach and provided us a week of great sunsets from the porch. I will certainly be back again! While you're there, try out the little outdoor cafe at Triple Tails off of C30

October in Indian Pass

October is a beautiful time in Indian Pass. I reccommend that you visit this beautiful place. The beach was wonderful almost deserted. If you are looking for a out of the way place to relax, Goof off at the Gufenauf is the place for you. It was everything I thought it would be. I was very pleased with our stay at your place. My family loved it. I plan to visit again next year.

We really enjoyed our stay at Indian Pass and hope to return soon. The Gufenauf had everything we required and a great location. Something that made it really special was the owner, Ralph. He was helpful and concerned with our needs. In all my years of rentals he is the only owner who called and checked with us during our stay to insure everything was fine and we were having a good time. I highly recommend this rental. Thanks Ralph

Ralph, First off I want to say thank you for being so awesomely patient with me and my forgetfulness. Second, I would like to let you know that we had an amazing time. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and accomplished our goal of relaxing. We were almost the only family on the beach. We walked it seemed like forever and never met another soul. The sand was so white and clean. On our third day there we saw 5 dolphins swimming only inches away from us. One of the dolphins even came up on the beach and jumped back into the water. My girls were overwhelmed with excitement. I have to say that we have been to the beach many times, but it has never been this relaxing. We sat on the beach for hours at dusk and my girls had so much fun they were sad to go. This was a very memorable vacation. Again, thank you for allowing us to spend the week in your beach house, we made memories that we will never forget. Hopefully, we will be back next year! Thank you! Angel Lee & family.

We stayed at the Gufenauf at the end of April 2009, it was great. The beach was very private, we saw 10 people the whole time. The fishing was great and the community where the house was located was very quiet. The Gufenauf had everything we needed and was very nice. We had a wonderful time, we will be back. Thanks Ralph........................ Kevin And Amy

Our family had a wonderful time at the GUFENAUF, over the 2009 spring break (March 28 - April 3). The house was well furnished and had everything we needed, and was located just a few steps from the beach. The beach is the best in the world. The Indian Pass Raw Bar just down the road was awesome and a must for lunch or dinner for great sea food and good conversation. There is no better place for fishing from the beach. Our 10 year old son caught more fish than expected. Also a great place for walking the beach finding shells and sand dollars. We often saw the local peacock walking around the neighborhood. Don't forget to visit the nearby town of Port St Joe and Apalachicola and the local state parks. We will definitely be back again.

This place was top notch. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place. We have 2 young children and love the fact that you can walk the beach and find the most amazing shells because the beach is almost deserted. The best thing is to rent or bring a golf cart and tool up and down the beach - its so much fun and you can build so many memories with your family. Ralph called us each visit to make sure everything was okay. The place is clean, comfy and makes you feel at home.

Our beach house has only been available for rent for two years as of this posting. We are averging just under 3 rentals per month. That's outstanding. The people who stay here come back. Why? because they love it. It's a cute little house, that's priced right, on a beach that's almost deserted. What's not to like? Did I mention that it's very very quiet with sunsets and stars to die for????
