Such a great beachfront house! The master suite on the top level was spacious and the deck hot tub access made it even better! This was our first trip to Cape San Blas and we were so impressed with the peacefulness of the area, the water color on the north side beaches, and the cute downtown Port St. Joe! Our pups felt right at home and loved walks on the beach. Would highly recommend this beach house and area!!

Peaceful and great location

This house was perfect for a family vacation! So close to the beach. The private boardwalk was wonderful, especially when you have kids and use wagons to carry beach gear. Kitchen was the best stocked of any VRBO. The private pool was a Plus+++ plenty of restaurants within 10-15 minute drive.
