A great place to stay

The owner is very quick to respond and instructions for the checkin and stay were clear, concise and spot on. The unit is clean, and very cozy. It has everything you will need for your stay and everything works. It is right by the second swimming pool and tennis/Pickleball courts. It is also a very short walk to the beach. And as everything else in Barrier Dunes, it is also a short walk to the clubhouse and the main pool. The beauty of the Cape is it’s peaceful easygoing pace. No big crowds, And if you want even more seclusion there is St. Joseph Peninsula State Park that is just outside of Barrier Dunes and which provides trails and even more secluded beaches.

Peace and Tranquility!!

Cape San Blas was so peaceful and this rental was the perfect location on the island. It sits just minutes from the State Park with uncrowded beaches and such a laid back vibe. The Condo was clean, nice, and had everything we needed. If you want peace, quiet, and a great place to relax this condo is it!

Cozy autumn getaway

Hubby and I had a great time at this cozy unit and on the beach. The home is positioned perfect in the neighborhood, with the back porch and table facing west; lets you leisurely enjoy coffee on porch without sun beating on you until afternoon, and can enjoy gulf breezes at sunset and night.

About the host

Hosted by Chris

Host profile image
I am a retired art teacher from the Chicago area, now moved to LA to be near our new grandchildren. Our family loves the beach at Cape San Blas. Our place is beautifully decorated, and well appointed. We are located 30 seconds to the solar pool and tennis courts, and less than a 2 minute walk over the boardwalks to the beach, clubhouse and pool. We love to bike and hike in the St. Joe Peninsula State Park. We love to eat the great seafood in the nearby restaurants, and listen to live music in the local eateries/pubs. Apalachicola, the second oldest city in FL., is a half hour away.

Why they chose this property

We purchased our townhome in 2004 from an NFL football player. We love the uncrowded, sugary white sand beaches of the Florida panhandle. We enjoy the great fishing eating, shelling, biking,and relaxing at the gated community of Barrier Dunes.

What makes this property unique

We love the small town of Port St. Joe. We shuck our own oysters that we purchase by the pound. We enjoy the most beautiful sunsets over the water. We also enjoy the shopping and great restaurants in historic Appalaciocola, the 2nd oldest city in Florida, only 30 minutes away. Also, we never miss a dinner at the Indian Pass Raw Bar during our visits. We take part in the several local activities whenever we can.
