About Bob Toler
We are Bob and Rhonda Toler. We have designed and built our homes for guest enjoyment and comfort. Bob’s background is architectural engineering and professionally built homes in Birmingham, Alabama. We have enjoyed the Cape for years and love to share this special place with others. It is our pleasure to extend our home to our guests.
Bob Toler purchased this House in 2015
Why Bob Toler chose Seagrass
After vacationing at the Cape for many years, we decided to purchase a lot and build our dream. We invite you to relax and enjoy our new beach cottage and fall in love with the unspoiled beauty of the Cape too.
What makes this House unique
Salt Air Cottage was specially designed by the owner to maximize gulf views from every room. Two spacious covered decks and the private pool entertainment area cater to outdoor family meals and gathering or simply relaxing in Adirondack chairs with beautiful views and the tranquility of ocean waves. The elevator enables mobility for all guests. A coffee and beverage station just outside the bedrooms is convenient for early mornings and evening indulgence. Serene upscale interiors are intended to refresh and renew with the simplicity and comfort of an old Florida vacation.

Beautiful and comfy!
This was amazing! Well stocked and gorgeous!!
STUNNING
This home is amazing, along with the owner Bob. From our initial inquiries of this property through the entire trip - impeccable customer service! The home is beautiful - a perfect family getaway for lots of family time and few disruptions! I highly, highly recommend this home.
Beautifullly decorated home overlooking the beach!
After hours of searching, we chose this beautiful home to celebrate our 50th anniversary with our children and grandchildren. It definitely exceeded our expectations with the beautiful well-maintained decor, extremely well equipped kitchen and attention to even the smallest details. We had the pool heated, which is definitely worth the cost if renting before the weather gets hot. And the elevator was such a plus with luggage and groceries to bring in. Bob was wonderful to work with and couldn't have made our stay more memorable!
We would highly recommend Salt Air Cottage and hope to come back again.
Dear David and Jan,
What a wonderful review. Thank you for your willingness to be together for 50 years, it has such a positive impact on so many. We look forward to your return.
Many Blessings,
Bob and Ronda
Salt Air Perfection!
Our stay at Salt Air Cottage was sublime...everything we’d dreamed of for our first “seaside vacation”! The beautiful decor is fresh and costal-chic, with every amenity (loved the linens- especially the giant beach towels). The outdoor space is awesome, and the beach is fantastic!
One of our favorite things was the gorgeous landscaping around the house and pool. Large palm trees give you shady, “tropical privacy”. Our dog loved lying in the soft mulched areas while we enjoyed the pool. We felt like we were at our own private resort!
Cape San Blas is stunningly beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed trips to Port St. Joe (wonderful small coastal town) and Apalachicola (friendly historic village), and lots of delicious seafood from area restaurants, with Shipwreck Raw Bar in PSJ being one of our our favorites.
The owners are extremely thoughtful and so kind, and truly have the gift of hospitality!
Tom and Shelly,
How Kind of you! We love hosting wonderful guest. Please tell Bear we enjoyed having him and will try to remember to have fresh soft mulch for his next visit.
Best Regards,
Bob and Rhonda
Best Beach House Ever
Great weekend at Salt Air Cottage. The owners have provided everything you need. Bring your clothes, food, and drink, and you are set to go. Beautiful beach views, especially sunset, from the main floor and every bedroom. Very short walk to the beach. We visit Cape San Blas regularly and will rent this house again.
Greg,
We enjoyed having you and your family as our guest. Thank you for taking your time and sending such a nice review.
We look forward to having you and your family return as our guest!
Kind Regards,
Bob and Rhonda
Perfect stage for lon lasting memories
This property is truly a unique find. The house is in perfect conditions (pretty much new) and you are only steps away from one of the most beautiful -and less crowded beaches- of this corner of Florida. The owners go out of their way to make sure your stay is above expectations. Will be coming back for sure as a recurrent destination.
Jurgen and Lisa,
Your kind comments are truely appreciated. It was our pleasure to have you and your wonderful family as our guest! We will look forward to your return.
Best Wishes,
Bob and Rhonda
Location
Cape San Blas is like going back in time; Old Florida at its best. The Seagrass community is quiet and family friendly; a special, sought after, private vacation community. It offers a club house, community pool and the beautiful Cape San Blas beach which was ranked #1 beach by Dr. Beach in 2002. The Cape continues to be considered one of the top five beaches in America. There are no tall condos or hotels anywhere nearby; just simply miles of pristine beaches and large dunes!
As you stroll along the quiet beach, you can collect a variety of seashells or just enjoy watching the dolphins swim by or eagles and osprey scouting for prey. Of course, swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, kayaking or fishing in the surf are also a favorite. Explore St. Joseph Peninsula State Park just a few minutes away with it nature trails, huge natural dunes, fishing, and abundance of birds.
You may want to rent bikes and golf carts to cruise on the many miles of bike paths or kayaks and motor boats to explore the bay, gulf, many waterways or fresh water lakes. Or you may prefer sunset horseback riding on the beach as it can also be conveniently arranged. St. Joseph Bay Country Club open to the public is only a few miles away offering a golf course along with tennis. For water exploration there are five separate boat ramps within a few miles offering access to St Joseph's Bay, Apalachicola Bay, St. Vincent’s Island National Park, Lake Wimico for large mouth Florida Bass and many other waterways.
You can catch blue crabs, throw your cast net for shrimp, collect Apalachicola Bay Oysters or go scalloping in nearby St. Joe Bay. Enjoy these delicacies or freeze them for your return home.
If you're not in the mood to cook, there are a number of great, local restaurants and night spots nearby. The famous Indian Pass Raw Bar is just a few miles away, offering the area's delicious oysters, shrimp, gumbo and often featuring live entertainment and dancing. It is just 20 minutes to the historic and quaint fishing town of Apalachicola. Here you will find some great shopping as well as many restaurants offering the worlds best seafood along with night spots. Walk the boardwalk and see what catch the fishing boats have brought in for the day or visit the charming shops. The village of Port St. Joe is 15 minutes away with numerous shops and restaurants; a good place to stock up on all of the provisions you'll need.
