About this property

Pet friendly & fenced, all size pets welcome, 5 mins to beach & bay, est. 2023.

Fully fenced, pet friendly property on half an acre. Fun trails with lots of sniffing opportunities! Located in a quiet neighborhood with no adjacent properties, giving you lots of peace & privacy. Just 3 min walk to bay & 7 min walk to beach, beach cart provided, along with 2 bikes & outdoor games. There is also a fire pit in the yard for fun evenings with family & friends. A charcoal BBQ is located in the back yard.
New build completed in March 2023, with 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms, one with a tub. Fully equipped kitchen with every gadget! Laundry facilities included.
A comfortable spacious screened porch over looks the front of the property, where you can enjoy sunrises & sunsets. Also a rear deck with great views.
We love dogs so have no restriction on number or size, nor do we charge a pet fee. Pet bowls & beds and 1 large crate provided.
State park is just a mile away, where you can launch a boat.
3 restaurants on the Cape, 1 bar & 2 general stores.
The deeded beach access dune was renourished earlier this year, but sometimes the tide and storms make it a challenge to access the beach - in this case, the public access is just down the road - see map.
We do not charge a pet fee or mind how many you have, but please let us know how many you are bringing so we can let the cleaners know a head of time - thank you.
If you give us their names, we'll add a stick to the dogwood tree!

If you have a dog and you want to include your dog, this is place to be. Also, for the two legged ones in the family, the location is excellent and the house is well appointed.

Driftwoof, for people and pups

The house was great! We enjoyed using the bikes and paddleboards. The outdoor space provided room for us to spread out and let our dog have some off leash fun. The beach walk took us closer to 10 minutes, but the private access point was easy to drive to for setting up gear for the day. It was so nice to have beach space that wasn't crowded!

Perfect dog friendly get away

The home is beautiful, perfect location. The fenced in yard was perfect for our pups to explore and roam. Everything was thought of with our furry friends in mind, from beds to bowls. The house is well-maintained, and very clean. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and we felt right at home during our stay. The hosts were so sweet and thoughtful and communication was excellent. No issues at all. Best “dog house” we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend!

We were contacted to let us know when house was opened. Let us know we could come in before check in time. The house was lovely. Very clean and new decor. The .5 acre fenced lot was great for our dogs and our boat. We enjoyed the enclosed screen porch as much as our dogs!
The dogs had more fun than we did.

Our favorite pet friendly getaway

The Driftwoof is such a perfect getaway, convenient to the beach, bay and state park. The small details making sure that our pups had everything needed were a nice touch. Kayaks and paddle boards were fun for exploring the bay at sunrise! Will be back next year!

What an awesome dog-friendly rental!

Although we weren't able to fully complete our stay (thanks, hurricane!), we enjoyed the time we had at Driftwoof. The owner was readily available for communication, and the home was even better than described. Our new pup loved it, too! We are definitely planning on staying at Driftwoof again.

The house was absolutely perfect for us. We had 4 adults, 2 kids, and 2 young rambunctious pups who had never seen the ocean before. Having everything on property being set up with dog owners in mind was a huge help to us and made traveling with pets really easy. The location of the house was also ideal-easy walk to the beach and easy walk to the bay to do some kayaking and fishing. Also having the restaurant right on the corner was really handy when we didn't feel like cooking or just wanted to pop in for a quick beer. This is our second time staying at a property with these owners and they are extremely friendly and responsive. We look forward to our next trip!
Our pups wasted no time and made themselves at home immediately.

I’d give this property and it’s owners 6 stars if I could! The house was beautiful and well done in a quiet neighborhood that had easy access to both the gulf and the bay. The house was so thoughtfully done with every need provided for that it made for a comfortable stay. We’ll definitely be coming back. My whole extended family was raving about it! Thanks for having us and for your kind, prompt communication!

About the host

Hosted by Murray & Emma

Host profile image
We have owned and operated a number of pet friendly rental properties on Cape San Blas over the years, Sandy Paws, Salty Paws, Soggyy Paws, Sunny Paws, and Dune Paws.
All have since been re-homed, and we now have Driftwoof to offer.
We feel that most pet owners want to bring their pets on vacation, and why not since they are a major part of the family, so being pet friendly is our #1 concern.

Why they chose this property

Driftwoof is nicely situated on half an acre, midway between the gulf and the bay, with deeded access to both. A 7 minute walk to the beach, or a 5 minute stroll to the bay!
The property is fenced and gated, and offers a tranquil spot for both sunrises and sunsets.

What makes this property unique

Cape San Blas is known as the forgotten coast, the beaches are unspoilt, pet friendly (leash laws applies), with stunning emerald green waters.
The bay offers kayaking, dolphin watching, scalloping during the season, fishing and turtle spotting.
