About this property

Comfy family friendly house, short stroll to the beach!

Comfortable home only a few minutes walk to the white sands and clear waters of the Gulf! Located right next to St. Josephs Peninsula State Park. Community pool, playground, and tennis courts available.

Our home is a short stroll (275 yards or a 3-4 minute walk) from the white sand beach, through the quiet condominium neighborhood of Barrier Dunes. The bay is nearby with great fishing and wildlife spotting.

The home has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. One bedroom (king) and bathroom is located on the ground floor along with the living room, kitchen, dining area, and screened porch. The remaining bedrooms and bathrooms are upstairs, including a king bed master suite, a queen bedroom, and a queen bedroom with twin bunks. There are 2 pack and plays, high chairs, TVs and games for indoor fun.

While our house is perfect for families and low-key vacation fun, it is not perfect for parties or excessive noise. Please be respectful of our neighbors! Evidence of extra guests, pets, smoking, or partying of any kind will result in forfeiture of the security deposit. While the home is comfortable and modestly remodeled, it is not a "luxury" home so the kitchen and bathrooms are clean, but older. Please check out the pictures to ensure that the home fits your criteria.

The Cape San Blas area itself is a beautiful, somewhat remote area, perfect for unplugging and relaxing with family and friends. Bars, restaurants, and "entertainment" venues are sparse, but incredible sunsets, shells, white sands, and clear water are abundant. We are happy to provide additional tips and recommendations to make your trip a wonderful success.

Check-In/Check-Out Times: Check-in is 4:00 pm ET to allow us to ensure the house is cleaned to our high standards. Check out is 10:00 am ET for the same reason.

Barrier Dunes HOA: Our community is a quiet, family friendly neighborhood with a noise ordinance. No loud parties or blaring music is allowed--please be respectful of elderly neighbors and those with small children. Quiet hours are 10 pm through 7 am, although the area usually settles down even earlier :)

Age Requirements: No rental will be made to individuals under the age of twenty five (25) unless accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times or pre-approved by the host. Any reservation made under false pretenses will be subject to forfeiture of deposit and/or rental money.

Maximum Occupancy: The maximum number of guests is 12, unless the host provides an exception. If maximum occupancy is exceeded, you will may asked to vacate the property and forfeit all rental payments.

Reservations Canceled/Reservations Changed: Please read the cancellation policy as there will be no exceptions. We cannot afford to have guests booking and changing as we miss other booking opportunities

Damage: If you damage something by accident please just let us know so that it does not affect the next guest's stay or our reviews. Thank you!

Pets: Pets are not permitted on the premises due to the host's allergies. Guests found with a pet will be asked to leave immediately with no refund of rent or security deposit. Additional charges may apply for house cleaning, carpet cleaning and other damages.

Utilities: No compensation will be given for temporary outage of water, electricity, satellite, cellular, propane or internet services. Outages will be reported immediately and efforts will be made to have services restored as soon as possible. The operation and maintenance of these utilities is out of our control.

Non-Smoking Unit: Smoking is strictly prohibited inside. Your damage deposit will be forfeited and you will incur additional charges for cleaning, deodorizing, and/or painting if any evidence of smoking is found in your non-smoking unit.

Gas Grills: A gas grill is available for your enjoyment. As we do not live in the area we cannot guarantee the propane will be full--if for some reason it is not, we will reimburse you for any propane tank exchange upon presentation of a receipt.

Parking: Please park in the driveway. There is room for two vehicles. If you bring additional vehicles there is overflow parking within the Barrier Dunes community.

Linens: An initial linen supply (one set of towels including one bath towel, one hand towel, and one wash cloth per number of persons the property sleeps and one set of sheets per bed) will be provided.

Items You Need to Bring: Toilet tissue (we will provide initial rolls), bath soap, paper towels, detergent, dishwasher soap, garbage bags, foil, sharp knives, any special cooking utensils we may not have provided, coffee filters.

Indemnity: The owner cannot be liable for injuries resulting from any accident that may occur in or on the premises during guest occupancy. Owners are not liable for acts of theft, vandalism or damages to any guests’ personal property, or for items left in rental units, as well as no liability for errors or omissions.

Great family getaway.

We spent three nights here with our grown kids and their families. Just right for our group of 6 adults and three children. The house was perfect for our group. Very nice, but not so fancy we would have to worry. A short walk to the beach or pool. A cute pond with a boardwalk and fountains just across the street. We loved our stay.

Loved our stay at Cape San Blas

We loved our stay here so much. Leah kept us informed and answered any questions we had quickly. She did a great job suggesting wonderful places to eat! The house was clean and so close to the beach. We can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful Home

We love staying at Barrier Dunes and have always wanted to stay at this house. It met all our expectations and more! The decor was modern and calming. The roominess and cozy furniture of the place meant that everyone could come together around the dinner table or get some alone time with ease. We’ll definitely be staying here again. It’s a lovely place!

Awesome house and host

The host was incredibly responsive to the small issues that came up during our stay. The house was as described, the neighborhood friendly (lots of dogs), and the beach was beautiful! This part of Florida is still wonderfully natural and not congested. The food in the restaurants on the cape was great, too.

House was very nice and clean. It has a lot of amenities and was well equipped.

We arrived and were very pleased with the size, amenities, and cleanliness of the property. The property manager was very responsive, and provided us with helpful information, and tips about the community. The house was equipped with plenty of things needed for the beach but, also had games and toys for smaller children. If you preferred a pool instead of the beach there are two pools in the community. The community was very quiet and friendly. I recommend stopping and buying groceries in Port St. Joe because it's a 35 minute drive to pick-up groceries. There are several little shops once you hit the peninsula. If you want an awesome trip to the beach with families and friends this destination is perfect!

Perfect for Families - Host, Home, Location

This was a great property for our family with a two and four year old. No sharp furniture, sweep able floors, toys, books and games. Close to beach and nice pools. Best of all, close to State Park with calm bayside beach for little ones! It is quiet and peaceful. We had a slight snafu at checkin because the neighborhood gate code was changed, but Leah responded promptly even though it was 11-11:30pm, ensuring that we got the updated code and were able to get in safely. The only reason I gave 4 stars on cleanliness were some dirty (outside) doors, and dust bunnies (retrieving toys from under furniture). Otherwise very clean, no bugs (yay - it’s FL after all)! So really Both “tics” were minor/resolved. I would DEFINITELY recommend this home. Oh yes and I asked if she could provide a baby gate for the stairs, which she did - VERY much appreciated! I hope we can come back again.

Great House For Families

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was spacious and worked well for a family with young kids. We loved being in a community with easy access to both the beach and pools. The host was very responsive to all messages and very accommodating. It was a wonderful location for a family vacation!

Lovely vacation spot

This house was perfect for our family vacation. We really enjoyed the spacious home to spread out. The screened sun porch was a wonderful extra. The beach was gorgeous and just a short walk away. We appreciated the beach wagon & extra chair available to take to the beach. Owner was quick to respond to any needs. Thank you for a lovely vacation!!!
