Perfect Beach House

The house is beautifully furnished and perfectly located. Lots of fun spaces for relaxing and feeling pampered. Steps from the beach. You can walk to a few restaurants nearby (or the brewery) or you can take a short drive to Port St Joe. The cowboy pool is perfect for cooling off after a hot day in the sun. The patio lounge set near the pool sits in the middle of a cross breeze that is pure heaven.
