Florida vacation

The house was clean and had all the amenities that we needed for our stay. The beaches were close by and the restaurants and shopping in Port St. Joe were excellent. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this property to our friends and family.

Great place to stay near beach and I really felt safe when walking my dog. Quiet gated community is exactly what I needed. Beds are on the softer side. I personally prefer a harder mattress but honestly you could not go wrong staying here. I would say that if a problem did arise the management company was not great at reaching back out. Their laminated brochure is not up to date and mentions needing a parking pass and if it’s not present after you leave you will be fined. It took a couple days to respond back to say that the information in the brochure is not accurate and up to date. I also asked for the code to the workout room and never heard back. I’m so grateful that I truly had no issues with the place itself and enjoyed the community and my stay.
