Port St. Joe condo rentals

We had a week-long family get-together at all four of the Pitzer properties in the town of Port St. Joe. Our property was well maintained, clean, and fully stocked with everything down to charcoal for the grill. The onsite laundry was much appreciated. The hosts were responsive and the location, three blocks from downtown, was perfect. The pet supplies hit a homerun with our dog. We'll be back.

Overall, our stay was wonderful and the house was excellent. We had 6 kids, ages 10-20 and 2 adults. Beautiful house, great location, CLEAN. A couple of suggestions that are easy fixes for the future and would further elevate the experience. 1: there is no full-length mirror anywhere in the house. A $10 Walmart mirror on the back of a bedroom door to look at an outfit top to bottom would be so helpful. 2: small/sample size containers of salt and pepper would be a nice addition to the kitchen. 3: there is some sort of drain trap in the main bathtub. This may be common at the beach, but being from the Midwest, we were unaware so some instructions in the bathroom would be so helpful. With 5 people showering in there, it backed up very quickly. Delayed response from owner and then only a question about if we’d stuck something down the drain (we obviously had not). We bought Drano ourselves and when we took out the stopper to pour it in, we found the trap and dumped it, fixing the issue. Drano was not needed or used and it ended up a simple fix, but some info about this and how to clean it out would have saved us much time. It had to be cleaned out twice in our 5-night stay, and probably would have been three times if we’d known about it from the start. Overall, it was a great experience and a fabulous home. The layout, amenities, and kitchen and living room setup allowed us lots of family time and room for everyone to hang out comfortably.

Is right in the middle between Port St Joe and Mexico Beach and the location was very convenient to us to go either way

The Gypsy Cottage is/was a perfect winter getaway spot. Close to everything: shops, trails, parks, and restaurants. I highly recommend it.

We travel to Florida every year (snowbirds) and try to find "old Florida" where we can. It is increasingly difficult. Port St. Joe and the associated beach are exactly that. And it is not because they were not affected by recent hurricanes, because they were. But rather than tear down and build 15 story condos and shopping malls, this community restored existing buildings and have limited most shore construction to private homes. Judy has a special place. It is an easy walk to the beach, but an easier drive. Free, plentiful beachfront parking is available There is a "concrete pond" style pool, which is also very old Florida and her rental unit behind the pool has everything you would need. It was rebuilt after the last hurricane, so it benefits from a new, modern bathroom and the mattress is so nice we asked what brand it was. Judy said others also ask her the same. The host spent much of her life in the hospitality business and she understands what it takes. Thanks!

Great weekend getaway and great owner communication!
