Wonderful Stay

Excellent accommodations and setting. Very clean and plenty of room for the 9 of us. Would recommend to anyone and hope to return. The only request would be to extend the wooden dock all the way to the dune. May have misjudged the pictures but it would have helped with my mother's ability to walk.

Large family vacation

Three families (grandparent and 2 adult “children” with their own families) totaling 12 people stayed in this house comfortably! Excellent layout for our family. Able to have the relaxing family time we were all looking for rather than only being able to see one another at the hectic holidays.

Wonderful location

Location was perfect and we really enjoyed walking to 'the elbow' and hunting sea shells. It was easy to run into Port St. Joe for groceries and restaurants and over to Apalachicola and SGI as well. Nice and quiet neighborhood over the holidays. House was nicely decorated and loved the main bedroom and all the bathrooms. Plenty of towels and some basic toiletries provided. Will definitly stay again.

Great Layout, Amazing Views!

We stayed here as a family of 12 - 6 adults, 6 kids and the space was perfect. Plenty of sleeping options and bathrooms! The views from this house are gorgeous and it is the last house before the beach which we loved! We can’t really say enough about the location, house layout and beautiful beach. They were all lovely! House Manager was very responsive before and during our stay. I would say we would agree with the other reviews that said that more attention could be paid to the cleanliness and it could use a deep clean (i.e. extremely dusty in areas - walls and ceiling fans) - but other than that we would completely recommend!

We had the best time staying here. Though the red tide had just started when we got there, we still enjoyed our time at the pool. It is definitely small town beach vibes. We will be coming back.

Beautiful house, well outfitted. Great view.

The house was awesome, decorated nicely but you may want to take preventive action if you have small children, glass items, vases, etc. We did and had no issues. There is a nice high chair at the house if you have a little one. Awesome screened in porch and great views from the top deck. The garage is enclosed with a manual door. This ended up very helpful as we could place and secure our bikes, beach carts, etc. This house has 4 bedrooms with 4 bathrooms(3 of the bathrooms are attached to the bedrooms exclusively). My only dislikes are not related to the physical house. #1. The board walk has three levels of steps to get to the beach. If you have a cart or bikes this is a pain. This would apply to all of the rentals in this neighborhood. #2. Cost. #3. Check in after 5pm and out at 10am. You basically lose a day. This seems to be coming a norm. I don’t believe the “extra time needed to clean due to COVID”. This will be a detail I will look at when considering rentals in the future.

Great house! But a couple issues...

We really liked this house, but noticed a cigarette smell as soon as we walked in. It wasn’t too strong, and we didn’t really notice it the rest of the trip, but when we got home, we realized ALL of our clothes smelled like smoke. There were cigarette butts outside, so clearly, someone had been smoking at this “nonsmoking” rental. There was also some trash hidden in inconspicuous areas that the cleaning crew had missed, but other than these two issues, we loved staying here. Room for all of us and lots of sleeping options. We really liked the close proximity to the beach and pool and the small neighborhood feel.

Lovely little gem

This house has room to spare. Plenty of space to spread out. The screened in porch was great for nights playing cards. Was very clean except back porch needed a little more attention (leftover food on the ground). It’s very close to the walkway to the beach and pool. Convenient! I’d you have kids there are 3 yes 3 sets of bunk beds. Great for a reunion.

Labor day weekend

My family stayed for labor day weekend and enjoyed the beach. The house was big and the vicinity to the beach was nice. The neighborhood was quiet. The cleanliness left a bit to be desired but this has been brought to the attention of management to correct and they have assured it will be corrected for future.

True Paradise!

We visited over Thanksgiving with two families, including five youngsters. The house is spacious, clean and had everything we needed for cooking. The beds are comfortable, with very nice linens. An easy walk down the boardwalk to the beach, with great fishing and awesome sunsets and sunrises. Beach fire pit every night to roast marshmallows. Can't wait to visit again.

Property was great & view was wonderful!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation with family and friends. The home was nice (except the TV did not work in one of the bedrooms but didn't need it). The pool was fantastic and clean and the beach was great (long walk to beach though). Water was not clear but still enjoyed it. Gorgeous sunsets and sunrises and the dolphins put on a show one day. We usually come down once a year for a week but this is the first time staying here and it was fantastic.
