Location: Indian Pass, Florida Main North West, Florida North West, Florida, USA
Accommodations: Beach House, 2 Bedrooms + Loft, 1.5 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)
New (2003) two bedroom, one and one-half bath home in a gated community very near the Indian Pass Raw Bar and the Turtle Beach Inn. The house sits on approximately three-quarters of an acre on the second tier (third row from the beach) and overlooks a large marsh area to the rear. There is a big screened-in back porch facing the marsh, and both bedrooms have excellent views over the marsh and a small canal.
The community has a pool directly on the beach. The home is approximately 12 miles southeast of Port St. Joe, just off Highway 30A, and 18 miles west of Apalachicola. As of July 2005, there are only six homes completed in this development of about thirty lots. The beach and pool are about a three minute walk on oyster shell paths.
Legend has it that pirates buried a casket of gold in the creek that empties into the Gulf about a half mile from the house. One visitor to the area reportedly found a gold doubloon near the mouth of the creek a few years ago. Whether the story is true or not, it is likely to keep the kids busy for hours.
DIRECTIONS
Drive east from Port St. Joe on Highway 98. About 2 miles out of town, turn right onto Highway 30A. Proceed 6.7 miles on Highway 30A. At this point, Highway 30E turns off to the right and goes to Cape San Blas. DO NOT turn onto 30E, but continue straight on Highway 30 for 2.7 miles until you reach the Indian Pass Raw Bar on your left. Turn right onto 30B directly opposite the raw bar; this road goes to the ferry to St. Vincent Island. About 200 yards after the turn off, you will cross a small canal. Just past the canal, turn right onto Painted Pony Rd, a small shell road. There is a sign for the Turtle Beach Inn. Proceed straight on Painted Pony until you reach a gate; key in the gate code (the key pad is on the left, just before the driveway to the Turtle Beach Inn), pass thru the gate and the house will be about 100 yards on your right at 157 Painted Pony Road.
Please NO SMOKING.
