This spacious 2 Bedroom 2 Bath townhouse has a gorgeous view of the Gulf of Mexico with a short boardwalk stroll over pristine 20 foot dunes to the silky sand beach ranked #1 in the US by Dr. Beach.
Nestled between the sparkling Gulf of Mexico and the tranquil waters of St. Joseph's Bay, Barrier Dunes enjoys a setting of uncommon natural beauty at Cape San Blas on St. Joseph's Peninsula. The community takes its name from the white crystalline dunes sculpted here over countless centuries by Gulfshore breezes.
Nuzzled in a secure gated community, this pet friendly, child friendly forgotten coast getaway has tons of amenities including Oversized Tub, 3 TVs, VCR and a gas grill on patio.
Relax at one of the swimming pools, play tennis, ride bikes through the winding roads and windswept dunes of the state park, stroll along the uncrowded white sandy beach or snorkel in the crystal clear bay.
You can see dolphins cavorting in the surf daily, enjoy fabulous fishing right from shore and, if you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of a nesting sea turtle or migrating Monarch Butterflies. Once you experience the beauty and serenity of Barrier Dunes on Cape San Blas you will never chose another vacation destination.

Why the Owner Chose Cape San Blas
We spent several years exploring the Gulf Coast and the Georgia Atlantic coast. We were looking for property close to the beach with ample opportunity for outdoor activities. We were not interested in typical high density areas with goofy golf, spring break bars and other night life. We wanted the peace and serenity found a century ago, a place to slow down, watch the sun rise and set, walk in the dunes or ride bicycles. When we stumbled across the forgotten coast and Cape San Blas we knew we had found what we are looking for.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse
Some of the unique benefits we enjoy when visiting the cape are hiking through seven miles of state park, snorkeling in the bay, renting a sea kayak or riding a horse on the beach.
At the entrance to Saint Joe State Park there is a charming trail that winds through the brush and ends at the bay of St Joe
Walk north for about half a mile and you enter the State Park. Walk another seven miles and see narry a sole, only dunes, birds the occational deer or dolphin
Rent a pontoon boat and cruise to the end of the Cape. If you go in the morning I'll bet a school of dolphins will come and check you out.
St. Joseph's Bay Country Club is a 18-hole golf course located along beautiful St. Joseph's Bay off County Road C-30. Mature trees, lush fairways, sloping greens, and strategically placed hazards high
The only way to get ther is by boat. Bring your own food and water and be prepared for lots of walking. I guarentee it is worth the hike.
This pool has solar heating. With good weather it opens by the end of March and closes in November
