Amazing Family Vacation Home

This is our second year returning to this home and we absolutely love it for our family. The main room is our gathering spot for meals and board games and planning out our fishing adventures. The backyard and pole barn is what drew us here for our boat trailer, and this summer it was even better with the fish cleaning station-- even if all the fish had lockjaw this year and we barely used it! We also love evenings in the hot tub, and communicating with Jay is really easy. He responds quickly and is great to work with. This location is also great for walking into town or down to the water for a sunset. We absolutely love it and recommend! We plan to be back again next summer!

Cute cottage with great access to PSJ fun!

The cottage is a quintessential Florida home, full of character and charm. It is just a short walk to downtown Port St. Joe and an easy ride out to Saint George island. For nice long walks, we highly suggest Forest Park, just a few blocks away.

Senior Trip for our Son

The property is in a great location! If it wasn't oppressively hot, the distance to the beach and downtown is very close to walk. The house fit everyone perfectly, although we were gone more than we were there. All new appliances, washer/dryer, new fixtures make this a comfortable stay. We hope to come back in the off season to enjoy the town's ammentities further.

Beautiful vacation home

We had a wonderful time at your beautiful house! It was much bigger than we imagined! Beautifully decorated everywhere too. Everything was so well-maintained, well stocked and we felt right at home! The street was quiet and felt very safe and laid back. Port St Joe is quaint and we had awesome excursions to Apalachicola, beaches at Cape San Blas and St. George Island and Panama City Beach. Our entire family loved the hot tub in the beautiful backyard! Thank you for being dog friendly. We will certainly be back! Happy Spring Breakers from Chicago!

Great house

We stayed here for a week with 2 adults, 19 year old son, 16, 15, 13 and 12 year old kids. It was tight, but we made it work. The home has been recently renovated and the owners were thoughtful in their selection of tastefully decorated and quality furnishings. The master bed was really comfortable and had great sheets and pillows. High end LG appliances in the kitchen and washer/dryer. I particularly appreciated that there was a decent selection of kitchenware for nights we cooked in, as that is sometimes skimped on rentals. There was a Kitchenaid blender, at least one All Clad Pot and Calphalon pan (along with some Revereware) and Henckles knives, Soda Stream (bring your own bottles) and a Weber grill. The owners took great care in creating ambiance in the outdoor spaces with string lights around the patio and porch areas, along with outdoor chairs, outdoor fans, outdoor shower (I never even used the inside shower once) and a hot tub. I did wish there had been a fire pit out back, but that is my biggest feedback. We had a great trip. The owner was very responsive and great to work with.
