About this property

Cape Escape II End Unit on Lake & just 200 steps to beach w/ Beach chairs/cart

Welcome to beautiful Cape San Blas FL, located along Florida's Forgotten Coast in the Florida Panhandle--50 miles SE of Panama City between Port St. Joe & St. George Island and Apalachicola.

Cape Escape II is an end unit, located directly on a fresh water fishing pond (can fish or feed the turtles FROM the back deck), & it's just 200 steps to the beach!

It has a King & Queen Bedroom both have en-suite full bathrooms & private decks. There is an additional half bath on the main floor & queen sleeper sofa in den.

Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, and there is a gas grill on the back deck. (we even thought of a backup gas tank in case the gas runs out).

Cape Escape II is in beautiful, gated Barrier Dunes which is just steps from the entrance to St. Joseph State Park & its large variety of wildlife, Hiking, Biking, and over 16,000 acres of awesome 'Beachfront' wilderness surrounded on 3 sides by the Gulf of Mexico and St. Joe Bay.

We provide everything from beach chairs and linens to Wifi, right down to the little things like laundry detergent, trash bags and dish soap to make your packing easy and your stay relaxing!

Barrier Dunes has 2 pools (1 is gulf front & 2nd is heated 4 mo. a year), lighted tennis courts, 3 fresh water fishing ponds, playground, pet stations, boat parking, boat washing area, and boardwalks throughout!

In the evening, sit on your deck and take in the awesome beauty of a moonlit night & stars larger & in more abundance than you've ever seen. No city lights or commercialism on the Cape!

You will always enjoy a wonderful family-friendly atmosphere in Barrier Dunes & on the Cape San Blas pet-friendly beaches--even during spring break/summer!

Regardless of the season, this is just the place to enjoy life and each other! Come enjoy our pristine, coastal paradise!

The property was just like the pictures. A very short walk to the beach, pools and playground. The house itself was clean and well stocked. I will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cape Escape! It was wonderful! Clean, plenty of space for our 2 boys and our Boston Terrier. We loved the community feel of Barrier Dunes.. kids riding bikes, people walking their pups, & to and from the beach. We were just a short walk to the beach & both pools. And super close to the state park, which we love. Longbills & Coneheads are a short bike ride or drive- even walk! We had a minor issue with our AC unit during our stay, but Devi was very prompt in getting someone over to take care of it, which we appreciated during a hot week. Overall, we loved this property & would definitely stay here again.

About the host

We fell in love with Cape San Blas our very first visit! We didn't even know it was a pet-friendly beach at the time and we've always had dogs and been dog lovers!

At the end of about 2 years we ended up owning 3 properties, all in Barrier Dunes, and were discovering more we loved about the Cape every trip! Our kids starting going to Cape San Blas when there were 4 and 6 and both are now in college. I look forward to enjoying the Cape with their families when the time comes!

When I started renting, I was a mom of young kids and realized it was a LOT of work to get ready for vacation, so I try to make it as easy as possible for folks renting with Cape Escape Vacation Rentals. I provide everything from beach chairs down to the little things you want when you're on vacation, but many trash bags, laundry detergent and LOTS in between. I also try to communicate as many details as possible before your vacation and provide a very complete guest information book about the area once you arrive so you don't have to do the research!

Some of our favorite things to do are: Bonfires at the beach after sunset, scalloping in the bay, kayaking, Indian Pass Raw Bar to enjoy oysters, crab legs & steam shrimp as well as great local music and company, a day poking around the stores (and eating) in Apalachicola many things!

I look forward to having you enjoy a Cape Escape soon!
