This was our third visit to "Track of the Moon" and hopefully will not be our last. We like the quiet surroundings , sitting on the screen porch listening to the ocean. Taking the boardwalk to the beach and trying to identify the wild flowers along the way. Easy to get to Port.St. Joe and Apalachicola for shopping and great seafood

Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We had a wonderful family vacation. The house was exactly as the information stated. The owners were very helpful. We enjoyed eating at Triple Tails and they were very nice. We also bought lots of oysters, shrimp, and crab cakes from them. We took afternoon trips to area locations including Apalachicola, a very interesting town. The kids spent lots of time on the beach playing in the sand. We were even treated with a new nest of turtle eggs and got to see them buried. The kids adopted the nest which contains 124 eggs. This was a great educational experience for the kids. The guys enjoyed surf fishing and the fish were really biting. They caught catfish, growlers, stingrays, 2 types of sharks, crabs, and even a flounder. We loved being so close to the beach yet it was not a busy beach and the area people were very friendly. It was nice that we had our own boardwalk to the beach and could leave items by the boardwalk and did not have to carry everything back to the house. We will definitely recommend this property to friends.

Wonderful Relaxation

Location and amenities were excellent. Layout of the home with the separation of the master suite from the other bedrooms and the spacious kitchen/dining/living area was very accommodating. Combination of spotty cell reception and DSL internet access provided for selective disconnection from the outside world for relaxation while maintaining access as desired. Kitchen was well-equipped and, coupled with the gas grill, made staying in for dinner very easy. Indian Pass Raw Bar's food, atmosphere and live entertainment made it worth the wait as the closest dining-out option. Access to virtually deserted beach was incredibly inviting. Both Port St. Joe and Apalachicola provided very interesting shopping and dining opportunities populated with friendly folks. St. Vincent Island was well worth the cost of the shuttle ride, but cannot be adequately explored in a single visit. Would definitely like to repeat our visit sometime and selfishly hope the Forgotten Coast remains the way it is.

Great Family Vacation

This was our second family vacation on this property and I hope not our last. I love to fish from a kayak and also did some fishing from the beach. The fish were biting and my three grandkids all caught fish. The beach is beautiful and the water was warm. It is an easy walk from the house to the ocean on the boardwalk. The view of the ocean from the front porch is very relaxing. You could hear the surf and the mockingbird in a pine tree next to the porch at the same time. The house is comfortable with children around. We are outdoor oriented people so we try not to spend much time indoors other than sleeping or eating. We cooked several meals (fish and seafood fests). The kitchen is serviceable, with the basics covered, but don't expect everything you probably have at home. The place is not elegant, but it is clean and reasonable maintained.
