Relaxing and Carefree

This was our first time bringing our dog with us to the beach and the house was perfect! The private boardwalk was amazing and made it super easy to get to the beach. There was a very nice multi head shower at the bottom of the deck stairs that made getting sand of us and our dog very easy. The railed in deck was awesome to relax on and let our dog off leash but still contained. A very clean and great place to stay!

Great place for families in PSJ!

Diane’s home was fantastic and just what our family was looking for during our Spring Break stay in Port St. Joe. The home was very clean and well appointed. We brought a bunch of extras (soap, tp, paper towels, etc) as we normally do when renting a place, but never had to dive into our stash. The kitchen was really well stocked - a Viking range, air fryer, and microwave. The drink fridge was a great added bonus too. Plenty of dishes, pots, pans, etc. The size of the home was perfect for our family and the proximity to the VERY quiet beach can’t be beat (my unscientific measurement was 85 steps from back porch to toes in the sand). The back porch is spacious and perfect for morning coffee, meals, and enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Diane was a great host and very responsive and left great instructions. Check-in and check-out were a breeze! Being able to walk to Shipwreck Raw Bar was a great bonus too.We hope to be able to find time to make it back to PSJ and Diane’s place again.

Wonderful Stay

The house was all one level, well stocked, clean, and had very comfortable mattresses. There were no homes on either side for the utmost privacy. The deck overlooking the ocean was wonderful. The deck is well built and very safe for our toddler and our small dog. We experienced the most beautiful sunsets on the deck. We saw dolphins several days and a bald eagle on the beach one morning. The private boardwalk to the beach was very convenient and well kept. Check in and check out was easy. Diane was a great host. We hope to stay here again.

Perfect Getaway!

We could not have had a better time in Port St Joe. From the communications with Diane to the wonderful accomodations, it was everything we were hoping. The location of the property was perfect, and the peacefulness of the beach was amazing. It's as if we had it all to ourselves!! We spent most of our time relaxing on the amazing back deck, enjoying the sites and sounds of the ocean, the pups loved it! The house was stocked nicely, making it feel like home away from home. And, Diane was just wonderful to work with. We can't wait to go back!!!!

We had a wonderful time! This is an older home, right on the beach. The decorations are nice with tile floors throughout (which was great with sandy kids). The back porch is large with decking right to the beach. We plan to return.

The Perfect Location

Our group of 4 loved this vacation rental home for our annual girls’ trip. This was our first time in this area and it will not be our last! The house was perfect! It was very clean and very well stocked. The view from the huge, new deck was amazing! That’s where we spent most of our time. The house was in the perfect location with just a short drive to restaurants, shopping, exploring, etc. We would highly recommend this rental property! You will not be disappointed. We can’t wait to visit again!

Beyond expectations

This house was everything the owner stated in the description. We were more than comfortable in the living area. The kitchen was very well stocked. Plenty of towels for our stay. The beds were very comfortable after spending the day playing on the beach We enjoyed many quiet nights on the large deck overlooking the gulf. The wooden walkway to the beach from the house made for easy access. If you are looking for a quiet beach with beautiful sunsets then this beautiful spacious house is the place for you

Great sleepy area!

We really enjoyed our stay, beach had hardly anyone else there, everyone we met was very friendly. Some trouble with cleaning in between our stay and the stay before us was quickly remedied by Diane. Back porch is really a great addition and was perfect for us to hang out on while the kids napped. It is gated and our dog loved sitting out there as much as possible.

So good I want to keep it a secret

This place is absolutely a hidden gem. The location is top notch. You won’t find a better one. The inside has been refreshed and updated. The back patio is where we spent most of our time. Diane is an amazing host with quick response and clear instructions for check in. We love this place so much that we want to keep it a secret but it’s too good not to share. We will be back.

Simply wonderful

This is a nice home in a perfect location directly on St. Joe Beach. It is located on a beautiful and not overcrowded section of beach with the cape in view. The new deck was a great place to watch the waves and the beautiful sunsets. The updated home was clean and comfortable for our family of six and had all the amenities necessary to prepare meals and hang in when the weather wasn't so beach friendly. Port St Joe is only a few minutes drive away for some shopping and excellent restaurants. Shipwreck Raw Bar is only a few minutes walk up the street and we enjoyed several excellent meals on our visit. There is also a well stocked Dollar General very close for essentials. Check in was effortless with communication from the owner. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and can't wait to come back next year. A truly wonderful experience!!

Perfect escape from demands of daily life!

This is the perfect spot to getaway and relax! The beach is not crowded, your nearest neighbor is a block away and the new deck is 10/10! If you’re looking for touristy things to do, this isn’t it. The beach and ocean are very much natural (ie there is seaweed), the locals fishing everyday are incredibly friendly, and there are no high rises or water/theme parks. Shipwreck Raw Bar across the street is good and it’s a 10min drive to Port St Joe, where there are several cute, local restaurants and shops (and a Piggly Wiggly). The house had everything we needed and Diane was great to work with. The area is still recovering from Hurricane Michael, but shouldn’t deter you from coming!

Great House, Quiet Beach getaway

This house had comfortable beds, a great stocked kitchen. The huge deck and boardwalk and beach are the best part. The houses on either side are far away. There are sunsets over the water because the shape of how coast juts out. The beach wasn't ever crowded. There were people fishing around sunrise and sunset that I saw catching fish. It's a 10 min drive to Port St. Joe restautrants & shops. The beach has shallow water(up to 4ft) for over 100 ft out, then drops to about 10 to12 ft deep max., for 50ft, then a wide 3-4 ft. sandbar. No huge waves, calm waters most of the time. We had rental kayaks delivered to the house and crossed the the 1.8 mile end of the bay(45 min's 1 way) to the deserted beaches on the tip of the peninsula of the State Park that you can't get to by car. We and explored there and saw many fish, a couple rays, and many blue crab while snorkeling and collecting shells. They call it 'Old Florida', a quieter area without the tourist traps. I'd recommend this house to anyone. We had a great time.
