Om boendet

Öppna efter Michael! Som ses på HGTV! Designer kuststuga m / strand / bay tillgång

Njut av oöverträffad integritet, lugn och ro i ljudet av bränningen i vår professionellt inredda kuststuga! Le Grand Merci ligger inbäddat bland de ursprungliga florentinska tallarna i högt uppskattade North Cape San Blas med enkel, grannskapsfri tillgång till både strand och vik. Vakna upp varje morgon omgiven av natur bara en kort promenad från de suiter-vita sandarna och smaragdvattnet på vår strand som var dubbelt rankad # 1 i Amerika. Vårt 150 000 dollar övergripande makeover av denna fastighet med en känsla inspirerad av de år vi bodde i Frankrike slutfördes i juni 2018 och presenterades på HGTV. Nu erbjuder vi dig en unik möjlighet att njuta av vår älskade hem-bort-från-hemmet vid SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY RATES under resten av detta år. Kolla ofta tillbaka för LAST MINUTE SPECIALS (beroende på tillgänglighet).

Le Grand Merci sover upp till tio personer i tre sovrum (2 med king size-sängar och 1 med queen size-säng); två övervåningen hall "yacht-stil" ungdomsbunkar; plus en queen size-bäddsoffa för vardagsrum, alla möblerade med höga trådlängder. Vår master svit har en sittgrupp; eget badrum med stor duschkabin och dubbla fåfängligheter; och direkt tillgång till en privat, skärmad veranda. Le Grand Merci har ett extra badrum på varje våning för användning av andra gäster plus en marknivå, "strandvänlig" privat utomhusdusch med varmt och kallt vatten och toalett. Köket är fullt utrustat med elspis; mikrovågsugn; stort kylskåp; bondgårdssvink med avfallshantering; blandare; brödrost; kaffebryggare; en uppsättning krukor, kokkärl och andra köksredskap; och tillräckligt med rätter, porslin, glasögon, koppar, etc., för minst tio gäster. Två extra löv kan läggas till matbordet för att förstora sin kapacitet för upp till tolv personer om du har vänner att stanna med. En stapelbar tvättmaskin och torktumlare finns i hallgarderoben på bottenvåningen för enkel åtkomlighet. Le Grand Merci har plats att parkera upp till fyra fordon plus ett intilliggande sandigt område perfekt för din båt, kajaker eller jet-skidor. Förvaringslåda under huset innehåller några strandstolar, sandleksaker och uppblåsbar båt för din njutning. Ytterligare fritidsartiklar, inklusive cyklar, golfbilar, ponton eller fiskebåtar, andra vattenfartyg och fiskeredskap etc. är lättillgängliga att hyra i närheten.

Le Grand Merci ligger på St. Joseph Peninsula mindre än en mil från ingången till den berömda T. H. Stone Memorial State Park och Wilderness Area. Den norra delen av parken har sju miles av orörda stränder i Mexikanska golfen som präglas av några av de högsta sanddynerna i delstaten Florida utan ett picknickbord, en ljusstav, en byggnad eller ett annat tecken på mänsklig bostad överallt i sikte. Det inkluderar också många miles av naturliga bayfront nedåtgående till en vacker, "barnvänlig" strand och snorkling område med begränsad våg handling intill en liten marinan och båt lansering.

Tillfälliga middagsalternativ nära Le Grand Merci inklusive Conehead's Restaurant; Trading Post; Shoobie s; Peachy s; och Low Country Boil är lättillgängliga via den asfalterade cykelvägen som gränsar till vår egendom, liksom St. Joseph Shrimp Company där du kan hämta fräsch, lokalt fångad skaldjur för att laga mat på vår utomhusgasgrill eller få sina vänliga anställda att laga ditt val för dig medan du väntar. Flera bra restauranger är en pittoresk bilresa längs bukten i den mycket vänliga staden Port St. Joe, smeknamnet "Mayberry by the Sea". Vi gillar särskilt Sand Dollar Cafe och Paul Gants BBQ-grill, men det finns flera andra bra alternativ för dig att välja mellan. Port St. Joe har också massor av små butiker där du kan ta bort din tid på en regnig dag samt en fullservice livsmedelsbutik, marina leveranshus, hårdvaruaffär och marina med drydock och reparationsmöjligheter. Apalachicola erbjuder extra mat och rekreationsmöjligheter, inklusive det unika Apalachicola Maritime Museum och träbåtbyggnadsskolan där du kan lära dig tidlös tradecraft eller boka en kryssning på S / V Heritage (deras 58 fot trä segling ketch). Det är också värt att notera att Cape San Blas är en av de få platserna kvar i Florida där vissa stränder tillåter ridning och är hundvänliga.

Om du letar efter en avkopplande, familjevänlig, avslappnad semesterplats där du kan koppla ur trycket i livet och känna stressen som dränerar bort, är Cape San Blas den perfekta platsen för dig. Koppla av i solen; spela i vågorna; snorkla eller kajak på bukten; vandra lokala naturstigar; fisk till din middag ta långa promenader ner miles och miles av orörda stranden; eller bara göra en lägereld och titta på de vackra solnedgångarna! Gör minnen med dem du älskar mest i den speciella atmosfären i denna familjevänliga, höga, fria och folkfria del av Florida där saker fortfarande är "som de brukade vara".

Vår familj har rest över hela världen, inklusive hela Franska Polynesien i södra Stilla havet, men vi har aldrig hittat någon plats på jorden där sanden är någon vitare, vattnet något tydligare, eller folket något trevligare än Cape San Blas och Port St. Joe! Vi ser fram emot att vara värd för dig medan du är i området och vi ber att din vistelse i vårt hem blir en av dina mest kära minnen.

Great Family Trip

Our family loved our stay. We rented a cart to help haul things to the beach which made things a lot easier. House is well kept and felt like a real coastal getaway.

Everything I needed to feel like home

The amenities and house was very accommodating for a relaxing vacation. This is the perfect place to go when you want a low key, natural beach vacation. The owners kept in touch to help with any issues that we may have had. The house was clean and the decor was HGTV beach house fabulous.

Winter Getaway

My Wife and I enjoy finding and experiencing quiet locations, off the beaten path, that we can “home base” out of to explore the surrounding area, that reveals local discoveries worthy of remembering. Our stay here was all of what we look for and more. We found our entire experience rememberable. If you are inclined to do your own thing, and not follow the crowd, this may just be the place for you, it was for us.

VERY LOVELY BEACH HOME!!!

We had a great vacation at Cape San Blas! Le Grand Merci is a wonderful place to stay! It is newly updated and very nice! The kitchen is small but it has custom cabinets which were fully stocked with all the cookware and utensils you need and new appliances which were great! The beds were very comfortable to sleep on. The bike path was right outside the house- which we took advantage of several times and St Joseph state park is only about a mile down the road. We went there several days to kayak and snorkel. Mark was very friendly and checked on us a few times to make sure we were doing ok. I would highly recommend staying here if you want a great vacation experience!!

Lovely Beach Cottage

Our family had a perfect long weekend in Cape San Blas. Mark, the property owner, was very helpful and easy to work with. The house is newly renovated, so everything is brand new! The owners have thought of everything: beach chairs and umbrellas, floats, plenty of kitchen supplies for cooking and entertaining, a wonderful outdoor bathroom including shower and toilet, a grill, quality bed linens and towels, and even a rubber ducky in the bathroom for the kids! The home is beautifully decorated but not fussy, and has obviously been designed with comfort in mind. The neighborhood beach is a 6 minute walk and we had it almost to ourselves, even in peak season. The walk to the bay is about 2 minutes along a beautiful shady path through the pine forest. We would definitely stay here again!

No frills and kind of a mess of a stay.

The owner of the house was very easy to reach and very responsive for the record however we did have some issues. The parking area for the private beach to the north on the gulf side has been sold and is now considered private property and you will be towed if you park there. Obviously for a family of 4 that is a huge blow to beach days having to carry a lot of stuff so far. The washer has some mold, we were doing a load of whites, and the shirt I had on at the wedding as well as a dress of Nikki's was stained with mold. I am not sure what is up with the AC or if it's just not big enough for the downstairs but it has yet to cool down to even close to what we set it at 72 (it doesn't seem to be able to get below 76) which makes sleeping in the master pretty rough with this heat. The door to the washer and dryer comes off the hinges quite frequently. The ants and the cockroaches we're sprayed for and bait was put out. There is consistent construction going on every morning at 08:00 next door (as you are looking at the house from the road it's the new house to the left). The TV in the living room has a purple spot covering 1/3 of it on the right side, after looking into it a bit it's a sign the TV is going out. In closing this is a no frills non beach front rental for a pretty high price. It was our first time doing a VRBO and I will be much more picky next time.

So relaxing, so fun

This house is lovely and we so enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect - views of both the bay and the gulf, one mile south of the TH Stone park, a short two mile bike ride to the Trading Post and the St. Joe Shrimp Co., and a super easy walk/ride to the beach. Even though the house is right on the main road, the windows are so well sealed that there was zero road noise. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality cookware, dishes, and utensils. The bathrooms were so fresh and nice with beautiful counters, new showers, etc. The beds are the most comfortable I've ever slept in. (I actually took a picture of the tag on the mattress and am now shopping for a similar one for my home.) The week of Aug. 7-14, 2021, we had loads of room on the beach with no crowding. The marine life was so fascinating to see in both the gulf and the bay. Sailing was good.

Perfect vacation

House was lovely, clean and well supplied. Cape San Blas is a great beach....We did not go to the beach close to the house as we had a 2nd house for our family and it had closer beach access , so no experience with getting to beach . We enjoyed the chairs etc. , outdoor shower, and all the games and books. Thanks for hosting us , Mark and Teresesa

Le Grand Merci on the Cape.

Le Grand Merci was just as beautiful as pictured. The property was clean, well stocked with everything you would need. It is beautifully decorated and plenty of space for our family. Cape San Blas was so nice, no large crowds to deal with. Great family vacation!

Beautiful and tranquil

What a wonderful home in such a special location! The house is beautiful and such an amazing transformation (We recommend watching the HGTV episode featuring this renovation). The owners are very responsive. Cape San Blas is a place to which we will return as soon as that is realistic. As you know, Hurricane Michael came ashore nearby, actually only days after our stay ended. Fortunately, Le Grand Merci suffered no major damage. The house is surrounded by trees, providing a feeling of seclusion. In reality, both the beach and the bay are nearby...just a short walk. Inside, there are so many thoughtful touches. The decor is beautiful. From one of the upstairs bedrooms, we could see the sunrise over the bay. The people of the Forgotten Coast need help. One way to do so is to visit and help the local economy, while enjoying a lovely home and the best beaches anywhere. Please book a stay there! You won't regret it.

Best beach home rental EVER!!! Peaceful retreat!

My wife and I wanted a beach getaway with our 4 young children, but we didn't want the stress of being surrounded by masses of people in a typical condo or beach resort. We were looking for peace and quiet without a long drive to get to the beach. From the moment we walked through the door at Le Grand Merci, we knew this would become our usual getaway for years to come. Nestled in a pine grove, Le Grand Merci is a beautifully decorated home with a paved sidewalk that leads to a private beach access spot just 4 or 5 minutes away. Lots of windows and sliding doors allow generous amounts of light to flood the interior of the home. At one point, as I was sitting on the couch with my boys, I said to my wife, "Did you realize we haven't had to use a single interior light all day?" What a peaceful and refreshing experience. Every aspect of this home has been thought through for beach vacationers. A BBQ grill at ground level, very clean, spacious and completely enclosed outdoor shower with toilet downstairs, king bed in the master with screened in patio seating, bonus bunk beds upstairs and fold-out hideaway bed down, smart TVs so we could enjoy a Netflix movie with our kids, and a spacious refrigerator and kitchen space for full meal prep. Cape San Blas also holds some fun little surprises just down the road...fresh, hand-made donuts for an early morning treat, and Shoobies ice cream and soft serve. We'll definitely be back!!

WOW! WOW! WOW!

WOW! What an amazing and wonderful home. This property is a special jewel of Cape San Blas. The location is ideal for those that want a little privacy and yet still be located near the beach and bay. The pines around the home are so serene. The home is beautifully furnished with designer furnishings and jazzy flair. So many details went into planning and making this a dream beach vacation home. The master bedroom has a lovely porch that is great for relaxing outside and reading a book. The home was spotless and everything you need is provided to make this home a perfect vacation. The host were stellar and reached out several times to see if we needed anything. They went above and beyond and were the best host of anyplace we have ever stayed. We will be back in 2019 and I have been telling everyone about what a great and fun vacation we had.

Merci Beaucoup for Le Grand Merci!

Very thankful for the opportunity to stay at Le Grand Merci! It is newly renovated (as seen on HGTV) with an open-concept in the living/dining/kitchen area and three spacious bedrooms, plus a bonus Bunk "nook". The furnishings are bright, cheerful and comfortable. The location is great with privacy, yet close to the beach. There are 3 full baths inside the house, with a lower/street level enclosed shower & toilet for use after a day at the beach. The property was very clean and well-stocked with "necessities" (towels, bedding, toilet paper, etc.) There are several good restaurants in Port St. Joe (a short drive away), as well as a few on the highway between the house and town. Also, there are a couple of good-sized grocery stores in town and a small market on the Cape near the house.. The setting of the house is private & peaceful and Cape San Blas is a very nice, non-commercialized beach area. I highly recommend a stay at this BEAUTY!

Varför värden valde detta boende

We discovered Cape San Blas during a very stressful time in our lives and quickly fell in love with this area that is so different from everything we have seen elsewhere in Florida. Because the residents of Gulf County voted to prohibit the building of high-rise buildings, Cape San Blas and the St. Joseph Peninsula promise to retain the low-key, restful, down-to-earth, and family-friendly atmosphere that attracted us in the first place.

We were drawn to Le Grand Merci because of its unique combination of privacy and accessibility to both beach and bay and also because we saw the potential to turn its rustic charm into a true, French coastal cottage inspired by the many years we lived in France as missionaries. Le Grand Merci literally means, "A big thank-you." We chose this name as an expression of our gratitude to God for entrusting this property to our care. One of our greatest joys is being able to make Le Grand Merci available to some very special people working sacrificially for missionary and other non-profit organizations in remote and urban areas around the world who could never afford a vacation in this beautiful place. The proceeds from your rental help make that possible. Thank you!!!

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Le Grand Merci is unique among properties on the northern part of the peninsula because it is surrounded by original, Florida short pine trees whose branches grow close enough to the ground to provide a sense of privacy unknown to most all of the other homes nearby. Once the renovations were finished, we were amazed by how its many windows flood the interior with natural light. Looking out from inside, the beautiful trees give the impression of total privacy in a secluded forest campsite while being so close to the beach that the sound of the surf can clearly be heard from our outdoor deck. In fact, our own family spent a month here before any window treatments were installed without any sense of being visible to passersby!

When we began searching for a property to purchase here on the Cape, the national HGTV network got involved in our project in a very unexpected way and featured our renovation in an hour-long episode of their Beachfront Bargain Hunt Renovation program entitled, "Cape San Blas Bliss." They were great to work with and it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our family. If you would like to view the HGTV episode of Beachfront Bargain Hunt Renovation entitled "Cape San Blas Bliss" that chronicles the story of Le Grand Merci, you can find in streaming video online via iTunes, Amazon Prime, Youtube, or HGTV.

One last thing- no matter how many times we walk through our neighborhood to the beach, we never grow tired of seeing the dolphins or of watching the sunsets!
