Coastal cottage!!!
An amazing medium sized house that is a 5 minute walk to the bay and downtown!!! My kids and little dog loved the layout of the house and thd big back yard! My husband appreciated the sitting room in the back of the house where he could read and get away from the noise of the kids.
The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had all the appliances and dinnerware we needed.
A note: if you do stay here, plan on bringing coffee and/or k cups and filters. The coffee bar is minimally stocked. There is a keurig coffee maker as well as a regular coffee pot.
Family dollar/dollar tree is a block away. Piggly wiggly and dollar general grocery market are both about a 2 minute drive if you need any groceries or supplies!!! We'll definitely try to stay here again on our next visit!!!

Old school beach town charm
Great little week getaway bungalow. It’s a very quiet and safe area. This little gem has very comfortable furniture and beds. A 5-10 minute walk puts right in the middle of the entertainment district with specialty shops and dining. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Port St. Joe!
