Location: Mexico Beach, Florida Main North West, Florida North West, Florida, USA (In Saint Joe Beach between Mexico Beach and Port St. Joe.) View Map
Accommodations: Mobile Home, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 8-10)
Home is pet friendly as are the Gulf County beaches, except state parks. Imagine lounging on the beach with a special person, and your favorite beverage watching a breathtaking sunset melt into the Gulf of Mexico. The house is a remodeled 1994 MOBILE home only 1.5 blocks from the sugary white sand of secluded Saint Joe beach. Not in mobile home park, but rather, in a quiet, peaceful residential neighborhood.
The two bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms are private and on opposite ends of the home. It is large enough for 2 small families as it sleeps 8 comfortably.
These beaches are among the best in the United States. The sand is so fine it literally squeaks when you walk on it. Sheltered by St. Joseph Peninsula, Mexico Beach has no UNDERTOW. The whole family can swim safely, wade, snorkel, and find souvenir seashells.
Free use of kayak stored at rental home.
The months with the least rain are October and November.
This area is a fisherman's paradise with St. Joe Bay, marina and Apalachicola Bay nearby.
Short 30 minute drive away or 1 mile by boat is St. Joseph Peninsula State park voted #1 beach in America in 2002 by Dr. Beach of the travel channel. 3.5 mile bike path is 1 mile away at Windmark.
The seafood here is some of the best in the US with several restaurants to choose.
You can't see the ocean but you can HEAR it from here. Do not have to pay for the view either.
This home is in the middle of the second block from the beach or 300 yards (3 football fields).
1600 square feet of home and enclosed porch is big enough for 2 small families.
Apalachicola is only a 30 minute drive. It has many quaint shops including two on Avenue E and Blue. If you love antiques mixed with art, gifts and trendy accessories, these shops are for you. The men can sit outside on a bench or go eat oysters and sip their favorite beverage as you shop.
Come to the beaches to relax with your favorite book or pursue one of many recreational activities the area has to offer. This area is referred to as the forgotten coast as it is unspoiled like Old Florida free of heavy commercialization. Discover the forgotten coast before it becomes discovered by big business and high rise hotels.
The Cape San Blas lighthouse is located approximately 5 miles before St. Joseph Peninsula State Park on highway SR30E.
St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge, in Franklin County, Florida, is an undeveloped barrier island just offshore from the mouth of the Apalachicola River, in the Gulf of Mexico. St Vincent has a large variety of exotic and endangered wildlife.
Come stay with us for the Port St. Joe Scallop Festival on August 18 and 19 or the Mexico Beach Artificial Reef Association Annual King Mackerel Fishing Tournament on August 25.
Other upcoming Mexico Beach events include the Mexico Beach Art and Wine Festival during the weekend of October 20.
Great place on the panhandle for family and friends to enjoy the beach and wonderful sunshine.
You must be 24 to rent this home. There may be exceptions to responsible people.
If you are a scuba diver, off Mexico Beach is the wreck of the Empire Mica, a British tanker sunk in 1942 by a U-boat. No internet connection but you can get internet access at the Port St. Joe library and there is a wireless hotspot in Dockside Cafe at the Port St. Joe Marina.
A few golf courses within 15 miles of vacation home.
Tyndall Air Force Base is 10 miles away so you are sure to see jets if you stay the week.

Why the Owner Chose Mexico Beach
Since I love to travel and enjoy the ocean, especially the ones with the sugary sand, I decided to buy a vacation home on the gulf coast of Florida. The beaches are among the finest in the world!
The Unique Benefits at this Mobile Home
My vacation home is a short walk to the ocean or you can drive and park on the street, next to the beach. It's a very peaceful, naturally beautiful place. It is trully the way Florida used to to look like before commercialism took over. The drive to Apalachicola along route 30 is scenic with forest on one side and the beach on the other.
Ride you bike or walk along the 3.5 mile paved path which used to be old route 98. Windmark beach has plans to build a pier at this location as well.

Homeowner Response:
Thanks for being appreciative of the supplies although I cannot guarantee there will always be paper towels! My promise is to make this rental affordable and convenient...affordable for large families with the convenience of a supplied home and the beauty of the Gulf Coast nearby. You can use another cart to carry items to the beach and there are 6 bikes, 4 boogie boards and a skimboard you can enjoy at your own risk.

We throughly enjoyed our weeks stay here. As a family of 6 there was plenty of room and all the comforts of home. Mark went above and beyond to make sure everything for taken care of. From the simple things like dish soap to having a VERY CLEAN and organized home. I would definitely recommend this home away from home. We are already planning another trip. My kids really enjoyed their spring break here. See original comment at homeawaydotcom property ID 182595
