Nice, clean and comfortable home. One of the bikes initially did not work but a quick text to Ash was answered and the repairman showed up in about a day to fix. We appreciated the prompt and helpful communication from Ash and her group. The house is close to shops including Port St Joe shops & restaurants plus biking was fun and the beach is very nice. All in all a very nice vacation!We would recommend it!

My husband and I visited PSJ for our anniversary trip. Clean and comfortable home that was decorated beautifully! A perfect location— conveniently located in a neighborhood where you can walk to the beach, as well as a pizza place, bar, and cafe. We rode the two bikes that were available at the house and that was so nice to be able to ride down to the beach! The neighborhood is also just down the road from downtown Port St. Joe, where we enjoyed shopping, eating, and hanging out. This was a great stay and I would definitely come back here to vacation again!

Couldn't have been better!

Buckle up, dear reader, this will be lengthy. First, what an amazing stay we had in Port St. Joe. My family of 5 and my brother's family of 3 stayed together in this property, and it couldn't have gone better. House: The house is a recent build with modern everything. Its spacious and attractive on its own. The owners have added furnishings that improve the appeal. Its a bit of a split floor plan, which allowed our families to be together but have our own spaces. Master had huge bathroom and closet, which honestly could have worked as a nursery room had a baby or infant travled with us. Amenities: who could want more than private access to a tranquil beach? The neighborhood also features a village center with a few shops, restaurants, and even a bar with live music. There are plenty of boardealk style trails and a dog park for outdoorsy folks and companions. Also a huge private pool with full bar and playground. Location: the house is a 7-10 minute walk to the bay on Windmark Beach. Drive 10 minutes one way to the historic downtown Port St Joe with shops and restaurants. Drive 10 minutes the other way to Mexico Beach, another gorgeous beach town. Owners: If you have read this far, you can tell Im not shy to reach out. The property owners/managers were some of the kindest and communicative I have encountered. They really enhanced the stay and even checked in to see how we were doing mid-stay. I really truly cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Home was nice and big for my family. The check in process was a little painful because the door lock keypad did not work. We had to contact the owner.
