Amazing property!
We were there for a corporate retreat and totally enjoyed our stay. The home was well equipped with all we needed and the view of the ocean from the deck was an added pleasure. The hot tub was a great place to relax or swim some laps. We will definitely be coming back again. Everything was just perfect.
This beach house rental was an absolute perfect place for our anniversary trip.
The house was situated right across from the beach offering very convenient beach access, the hosts offered beach chairs and an umbrella which could be easily carried the short distance to the beach.
The view of the ocean from the deck made morning coffee and sun sets extra special!
Every detail of this rental was stunning. The cleanliness was impeccable, the beds and furniture were very comfortable, and the decor was absolutely beautiful.
The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, making our stay smooth and enjoyable.
This beach house rental exceeded our expectations in every way, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable vacation.

Home away from home
Great fall break! Our experience from booking to check out was simple. The house was so close to the beach and had everything we needed. It is decorated with a cute beach vibe and even has a hot tub with lots of outdoor seating. The owner was available anytime I had a question and very helpful. We would most definitely rent this place again!

We were able to walk right across the street to the beach every day and went and watched the sunsets every night. With four adults and two teens we had plenty of room and it was very clean. Loved it!

Spring Break 2024
Our first trip to St Joe Beach… house was perfect location with easy walk to the beach. Great set up, ample parking, we enjoyed the outdoor living area and hot tub. We couldn’t always get it to heat but it was fantastic when hot. Comfy beds, AMAZING master shower… everyone waited to use that one. Enjoyed the mornings on the porch with a nice view. I was cooking for an O line football crew, so I would have loved a few more pans and kitchen accessories- but we made do.Marc was an amazing host and very responsive. Easy check in and out procedures. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home- it was fantastic and we loved the area!!!!

Disappointed
This was our first vacation in almost 2 years. Being caregivers for a 94yo with Parkinson's makes it difficult to get away. We spent more than we intended just to get a place with a Jacuzzi/Spa for our short get away. This place looked perfect. However the spa was broken and all we got from the owner was "sorry about the spa, hope you enjoyed your stay." My wife was especially upset. We really wanted this place to be what we were looking for as we need a place to get away for our 10th anniversary. This will not be the place. The other issue we had was the toilet in the master was not clean. It looked as though someone had either diarrhea or had thrown up. Something had run down the front.

Fall Break at Our Happy Place
Our Happy Place was a well appointed beautifully decorated property. We were a family of six and we had plenty of room to spread out. The master bathroom was awesome!
The swim spa felt wonderful for October nights, and the cute little nook downstairs was perfect for the kids to hang out. The views of the ocean from the front and back deck were awesome!
I recommend this property for those that want comfort and close proximity to the beach!
The host, Marc, was readily available for all concerns!

Nice location not to far from town I think 4 miles there is a dollar general less than a mile from the house. Easy to park boat and extra room for other vehicles. We did go to Appalachia for the evening a nice little town I think it’s about 45 minutes from the house.

Just a 2 minute walk to the beach and it was so convenient to go back to the house to grab sandwiches, etc. or whatever we needed! Very cute place and kept very clean. The owner was very responsive and so kind in helping us by recommending places to eat and sending other suggestions for activities around the area for us to consider!
