Details: Cottage at Surfside is a beautiful beach home in the quiet community of Surfside. Located in South Cape San Blas, wider beaches often make this area more appealing. Designer touches give this home a coastal elegance that will make you feel at home immediately. Also, once you are in the house, everything is on the same level. No more steps to climb. Paved roads in the community also make this a great area to ride bicycles and its close proximity to the 8-mile Logger Head Walk/Bike Path makes it a perfect choice for biking and hiking enthusiasts. The path runs from the beginning of Cape San Blas Road to T.H. Stone Memorial St. Joseph Peninsula State Park.

Beautiful, comfortable, private pool, extra parking, and just a short walk from the beach – all fully descriptive of Cottage at Surfside. Small groups, small families, or couples time away, this beach home will make your vacation dreams come true.

Great!

We had a great time. We had some initial problems with the refrigerator and air conditioning. The property managers were there within an hour of our reporting the issue (on a Saturday!), and they followed up in person on Sunday as well. Management also offered to replace our groceries if necessary, but fortunately that was not needed. The master bedroom mattress was exceptionally comfortable; even the bunk bed mattresses were comfortable! We’d love to revisit in the future!

Amazing

We had a wonderful time at Cottage at Surfside! The property was even better than we expected! We enjoyed the large bedrooms, the screened in porch, tons of storage in the kitchen and closets, as well as the pool area and easy walk to the beach. We had to call maintenance towards the end of the week for a stopped up drain and garbage disposal…maintenance came quickly and fixed the issues along with replacing a shower head and shower curtain that he just noticed while he was there. We would highly recommend this property and Natural Retreats.

Really great house and location!

Our family loved our first vacation to Cape San Blas and this lovely rental house was such a big part of that wonderful experience. The location is wonderful and the neighborhood so quiet. The walk to the beach from the house was quick and easy. The beach was not crowded and clean. The house is laid out so well and stocked with so many amenities its impossible to rate it less than 5 stars. The ONLY criticisms we had were that it was not well cleaned the day we arrived. Under the beds in two of the bedrooms had Cheerios, empty grocery bags, a couple dirty socks, and just random food debris. (That was really our only cleanliness concern, but it did creep me out making me wonder where else they might have shortcut on cleanliness that I couldn’t see.) The grill was not functional when we got there but the rental company came out twice in the first couple days to get it going again. After that it was smooth sailing. Like I said, the rental was almost perfect, though the cleaning routine needs to improve so that renters feel the company is taking their cleanliness seriously in a Pandemic.

Quiet, away from it all and a very pleasant home

This was our very first visit to Cape San Blas, FL. This family of four has stayed in a lot of beach communities: Seagrove, Dune Allen, Grayton, St. George Island, Sunnyside, and Laguna Beach. To date, this our new favorite spot! We loved that there were no crowds. It was a beautiful beach. The seashells were even big and intact! The wildlife was incredible. We saw so many different types of seaside birds. We also saw dolphins swimming and leaping just 30 yards off shore. There are many hiking and biking paths. We even had an opportunity to ride horses on the beach. What a unique and different change of pace from our annual beach trip. This home was great. We appreciated the hammock, private pool, gliders on the screen porch, all the kitchen essentials, and the extra family beach toys. Thank you for opening up your home to us! We definitely will be back to explore more of Cape San Blas. The Naylors

Well kept and reasonable accommodations

All in all we had a very nice stay with our family for two weeks. The design of the home encouraged group interaction which we found to be wonderful for the entire family. We liked the areas natural beauty and lack of commercial feel. We have already booked our following year's vacation to Cape San Blas as we found the people to also be very friendly and welcoming willing to share knowledge about their area. The house was clean and had the necessary equipment required for cooking/entertaining, but lacked the addition items we've seen at other rental homes over the last 15 years.
