Wonderful vacation spot!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a wonderful time. Having the pool was amazing to float in all night if we wanted! The beach is a very close walk which is so nice when it is 90+ degrees outside. The house has plenty of kitchen utensils and pots/pans for making seafood dinner. Overall a great stay!

Kid and Pet Heaven.

No need to bring anything they literally have it all. High chair, kids plates and eating utensils, beach chairs, movies, books, crayons, pool floats, extremely large grassy back yard. Just wish it had a few more bedrooms so we could bring more family and friends. Great size for the six of us plus one infant. Plenty of covered parking so your car stays cool. Within walking distance of scallop cove.

Great location for Special needs family.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great Location and beautiful house. The fence in back yard with pool is excellent just make sure to reach out to management company if you want the pool heat turn on. Our son has autism and the fence in back yard and screen in porch was great for him. Coming from special needs dad wish the doors had sliding locks just keep our little running from trying run off. There was lot of construction going on around the property but that is not in fault of the management company. Overall great place for any family vacation and also suits for special needs family.

Great location

Loved having the private pool and a short distance from the beach. Howevwr, there are no outdoor lights around the pool area which made it unsafe for the kids when swimming at night. The pool light was too dim to illuminate the decking and other outdoor space. We spent several nights out by the pool grilling dinner and swimming. It would’ve been nice if there was more lighting, strings lights or landscape lights. We couldn’t get the elevator to work and the grass looked like it hadn’t been cut all summer.

The cart that you pull to the beach needs to have new tires put on due to it looks like they are split. The weather was amazing and the sunsets were amazing. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We look forward to it in the future.

Great location for a quiet beach getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I booked this beautiful home for our Christmas vacation. It was such a beautiful place to stay with our 4 pups! We walked along the beach several times a day with them and enjoyed hunting for shells and shark teeth. This is a great location just steps from the beach. This home has everything you could need (pool, beach chairs, beach towels, games, DVDs and all the cooking supplies you could need)! It was great to have a fenced in back yard so we could toss the ball with our dogs! Highly recommend!

People and Paws Love This House!

The house was impeccably clean - still smelled like new construction! The elevator was great for loading/unloading cars (or if you have a senior pup). Our dog was right at home here, and we felt incredibly welcomed as well. We had a snafu with the pool heater (which was remedied while we were there), but we weren't charged for days it wasn't heated and had no problems communicating with the property management company or host. My hint on this would be - specify during booking if you want the pool heated. I unfortunately did not, so it was a couple days into our stay before we tried to get it turned on - just to discover there was a replacement part needed. If you let them know in advance, they can make sure it's warm before you get there ;) Easy walk to the beach, which was never overly crowded. The entire area all around Port St. Joe is EXTREMELY dog friendly which we were pleasantly surprised to discover. Also, I rented equipment (beach stuff - umbrella, bikes, wagon, chairs, etc.) from a local company but I would advise to get here first before spending money on renting. The house has chairs, an umbrella, wagon and cooler. The only thing we had that the host didn't was bikes, if that's something you'd want. Pool toys, air pump, chairs - all the essentials to stay put if the pool is your hangout. I'd one hundred percent stay at this house again, no questions asked. I sent the link to my dad and he's even considering booking it for another vacation! Thank you!!
