Half Shell Hideaway

House was newer construction and decorated very nicely. It was stocked with everything we needed and more. About a block from Windmark shops, restaurants and pool. We really enjoyed our stay. Melissa was very informative and responsive.

Shhh… don’t tell anyone!

We had a wonderful stay! Everything was exactly as pictured, and the home was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We brought our dogs along since it was pet-friendly, and it made for such a memorable trip. We especially loved spending time at the beach—it was peaceful, not too crowded, and perfect for relaxing with our pups. The surrounding area was charming, and we discovered some great local restaurants nearby. The property manager was very responsive and helpful whenever we had a question. Overall, a great experience—we’d definitely come back! We’re torn from telling everyone how awesome it was and keeping this placd a secret.

Perfect getaway!

This is the perfect house for a couples trip or family getaway! We spent a long weekend here with friends and had nothing short of enjoyment. The house was coastal and modern, clean, and in a perfect location. Windmark was a beautiful community with great amenities, but the house itself was plenty entertaining. Our favorite parts were the outside patio and the garage (an awesome game room and hangout space). We will definitely make this a property we return to next year! Highly recommend!

Little slice of heaven

This home was everything that was promised. It is beautifully laid out and had everything that we needed. The location was great, close to everything. The community was nice and upkept. The host was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again. There are a few items that probably need to be addressed for future renters. I would do a deep clean of rugs and baths. I would also look at the condition of the bicycles making sure that the tires are able to hold air.

Great family stay

This home was thoughtfully designed for travelers. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay with my family of 4 and small dog. The location was awesome and the surrounding area is very low key. (Which is what we were looking for!) My pup enjoyed the dog park and my kids enjoyed riding the golf cart to the pool, beach, and shops near the property! The beds were quite comfortable. The neighborhood was quit. The property owner was always quick to respond and was available for anything we would have needed. The beach was not the white sand with clear water but it was perfect for smaller kids and very safe. There were lots of shells and sea creatures to find! We would stay here again.

Everything you could want!

We had the best time! Even on the day it rained, the house had games and things to do. It’s close to the main street where there are places to eat shop and hang out. The bridge in front of the house takes you all the way to the ocean. It’s perfect to walk with lots of paths all along the community. We will be coming back!!!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Cantrell

Host profile image
Hailing from the charming town of Jasper, Georgia, I've always had a soft spot for beautiful structures and the serenity of the coast. While architecture holds a special place in my heart, there's nothing quite like unwinding with the rhythmic whispers of the waves lapping at St. Joseph's Bay.

That's why I decided to share this little piece of paradise with others! Our home, nestled right by the bay, is where I get to play host to families seeking a memorable getaway. Here, you can soak up the sun, build sandcastles with the little ones, and let the sound of the ocean lull you into a state of pure relaxation. It's my way of sharing a slice of coastal bliss with those who appreciate the beauty of both architecture and the beach.

Why they chose this property

This quiet beachside town wasn't just a choice, it was a calling. Here, the days unfold with the rhythm of the tides, a stark contrast to the hustle I used to know. The community is like a warm hug, friendly faces greeting me on walks and neighbors offering fresh-baked cookies. It's a place where wildlife thrives – dolphins dancing offshore, majestic birds soaring overhead, and the occasional curious sea turtle lumbering across the sand.

But it's not all about serenity. The beach is my backyard, a constant source of wonder and recreation. When the salty breeze calls, I can simply step outside and sink my toes into the sand. And when I crave a touch of civilization, charming shops and delicious restaurants are just a short stroll away. This neighborhood truly has it all – the tranquility of nature, the pulse of a friendly community, and the convenience of modern amenities. Plus, the breathtaking beauty that surrounds me never fails to take my breath away. It's a constant reminder of the simple joys in life, and a place I wouldn't trade for anything.

What makes this property unique

Imagine waking to the gentle call of St. Joseph's Bay, stepping outside to a private beach haven. Our rental isn't just a place to stay, it's an experience. Unwind in serenity, roast marshmallows under the stars by the fire pit, or let the kids build sandcastles in our very own beach-inspired sand yard. Oyster shell flower beds add a touch of coastal charm, while the game room keeps everyone entertained.

Craving adventure? Explore the bay with watersports, or venture out for live music and delectable dining, from casual beach fare to fine cuisine. The friendly community offers endless outdoor activities, perfect for families and furry friends alike. This is more than a rental, it's a beachside escape waiting to be yours.
