Great Place near local attractions

We've been renting house down here for a very long time and I will say we were pleasantly surprised this house was so nice. Sometimes rentals aren't, but this house was very clean, had a great view out the front and plenty of space. Nice clean parking area and manicured yard. Yes there is a slight smell to the water, but that's pretty common down here and didn't bother us at all. Only negatives would be to maybe add some better patio furniture and that the road noise when outside can be a bit loud. Inside was very quite though. Would recommend for sure.

Great rental

This was an excellent vacation spot, especially if you’re familiar with the location. It is an easy drive into Apalachicola or on to St George Island. The house was a great layout, especially if you’re traveling with the kids. The upstairs featured a queen size bed that was a pleasant surprise, since the listing showed it as a futon when I booked. The downstairs shower had warm water, which is a huge plus. The kitchen had almost everything you could ask for (except maybe a sheet pan) and it was very clean. Overall, it was a great vacation spot!

Beautiful home and scenery

The house is very nice! It has lots of room and is comfortable. The view of the sound is beautiful! It is located near some great restaurants and shopping. Unfortunately the house water smelled terrible. We obviously didn’t drink it, but didn’t want to use it for anything else either. This really took away our enjoyment of the property.

Perfect Water Views

I loved the view of the ocean it was epic!! The bed was so comfortable and the overall decor was great.The drive over the bridge to the beach was an adventure each time. The beach was the cleanest I have ever experienced. I did get a chance to interact with the office staff and both ladies were the epitome of kindness and professionalism. Thank you "B" for your thoughtfulness. Yes I will book through Vacasa again. Overall we had a great time thank you Vacasa.

Peaceful Stay

I loved the view this place provided. It had a beautiful view of the ocean out of one of the bedrooms. There was a room upstairs that is an excellent morning coffee room if you open up the windows. This was a cozy stay & I would definitely come back again!

Amazing

Beautiful sunrises. House was clean and bigger in persons than what pictures showed. So close to state park beach entrance and good restaurant. I forgot to pack pots and pans but this place had them so we still got to cook the fish we caught. So grateful to be able to enjoy this house during spring break with our children!

Much room for improvement

Unfortunately, we will not be staying at this property again. We found broken door latches that would not lock wobbly rails on the deck, and a loose knobs that would not close in the bathroom. The water did have a very bad sulfur smell and the house is definitely in need of some TLC. For the price, it is fair but not a great deal.

Nice with room for improvement

Our overall stay was nice but I do agree with other comments about the water odor and the highway 98 traffic/noise. There is a lovely view of the bay and BEAUTIFUL ancient live oak trees in the yard. The deck chairs need replaced and the air flow in the master bedroom needs addressed. We loved the area and definitely will make a return trip and wouldn't rule out staying at Bliss again.

Beautiful peaceful home

The views are beautiful and the home is peaceful and well laid out. There are 2 bedrooms (1 king/1 queen). One thing to mention is the water view is not a regular beach so you would need to drive to walk in the sand. Location is great easy to get to St George Island and Apalachicola. Fun shops and dog friendly beaches.

801 Fun

We had a great time. The home was stocked with toiletries, dish soap, towels & hand soap as expected and clean. We will recommend to friends. Improvement suggestions: it’s time to update the living room furniture and fix the thermostat so more user friendly, there were no outside lights, improve lighting in living room & dining areas & strap garbage can-my husband cleaned up a mess bc the wind blew it over and it was full when we arrived Friday evening but overall it was nice stay.

Great view and price.

Arrived and house was ice cold and the pipe burst water down in parking area so no water for even flushing the first cold nite. Obviously no one checked the house_ took an hour to heat up- Good beds, nice deck, and terribly cheap, rusted grill. If you book this place, bring EVERYTHING you need including paper towels, coffee, shampoo, foil, salt pepper etc. there is a small grocery nearby and Lynn’s has fab oysters. Overall, okay. (If I were real picky, I’d say It would’ve been nice to have had someone check to see how we were doing after the botched check-in- but I’m not that picky-just passive aggressive. Nyuk.)

Adult get away

The property is nice , could be great !! The grass needed cut , needs lights on the steps , the water smelled like sulfur so taking a shower and washing hands was rough . When we first got there the code nor keys worked. We did call and finally after about 30 minutes they changed the code and gave us a new code . The mattresses need to be replaced . On the good side the view was great , the location wonderful, The a/c kept it nice and cold cause it was very hot and humid outside!! Over all we had a great time !!
