We really enjoyed our stay and the owner was very responsive. The back deck was incredible and a great place to view the beach. We really loved the seats at the end of the boardwalk to enjoy the beautiful sunsets. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed.

The kitchen had many extra spices and seasonings and a very nice coffee bar. May add some tea bags as a plus. We actually cooked two meals and breakfast.The large deck was super nice with two doors to access the deck. Beach view was incredible. Directly across from Cape San Blas. Enjoyed kayaking right from the house.Not far from Port St Joe making going out to eat easy and grocery shopping quick.
Your very own walk way to the beach. The bench seats were perfect to watch the sunset in the evening.

This charming house sits directly on the beach with its own private boardwalk. The Deck has new patio furniture, beautiful views and there are no neighbors on either side of the house so it’s more private.

The back deck on the home is absolutely amazing. You’re steps away from the beach and have the best views. Some of the most vibrant and gorgeous sunrises and sunsets every single day. There is a bit of road noise but nothing that ruined our sleep. Home was fully stocked and very clean. Its a bit dated in some things (like windows/shower) but nothing to the point I wouldn’t book this spot again. Walking distance to a great dinner spot. Close to PSJ for lots of food choices. We loved our trip here!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a wonderful review! The back deck is my favorite place--the sunsets and stars at night are breathtaking! Thank you for your feedback on the showers and windows. The home has been a work in progress since Hurricane Michael, and it helps us prioritize our next updates. We hope to see you back again soon.

This place is a jewel! Great location and owner has high attention to detail to ensure your stay is top notch. The best equipped kitchen I’ve ever stayed at and back deck has recently been remodeled and is twice as big with boardwalk all the way to beach! Outstanding!

A lovely place and location, private access to and from the beach. The balcony offers terrific views and the furniture is perfect for relaxing or outdoor dining. The house is super clean and has all the amenities that one would expect! Rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. Washer and dryer, dishwasher and a wonderful kitchen to boot! We are planning on our next visit already and will be staying here in the future as well.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoy staying at this beautiful property. It is our 2nd visit and we will definitely be back. The very short walk to the beach is perfect and the beach was absolutely stunning. Water was clear and the fishing was so much fun! The house was very clean when we arrived. Check in was super easy with our host, Dianne. The location is very convenient to Mexico Beach and Port ST Joe restaurants. I loved the grill and we used it to cook at night and just enjoy the peace and quiet. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms clean and the whole house is well stocked with what we needed. We can't wait to return and enjoy the area again.

Relaxing and Carefree

This was our first time bringing our dog with us to the beach and the house was perfect! The private boardwalk was amazing and made it super easy to get to the beach. There was a very nice multi head shower at the bottom of the deck stairs that made getting sand of us and our dog very easy. The railed in deck was awesome to relax on and let our dog off leash but still contained. A very clean and great place to stay!

Excellent, peaceful getaway experience

This property is just a walk to the beach. Clean and ready with the basic essentials to start your peaceful vacay. The beach is dog-friendly (on a leash), as is the property (don't forget to bring Fido's essentials). We actually went fishing and were able to have fresh fish for dinner. If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful getaway, watching the sunset right off the property, this is the place to stay. I recommend this property.
