Perfect Place for Family with Furbaby

Wonderful yard with blooming bushes greeted us when we escaped a nasty northern winter. Plenty of romping room for our furbaby and also room for the adults to stay! Close to downtown and the beach or docks. Lovely place to return to!

Charming older home - nicely renovated

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is close to restaurants and shopping. Easy drive to multiple beaches. I gave location a "4" because there was constant construction going on next door and people walking through the gate by the back door. I'm sure it will be completed soon enough. I would definately stay here again. The owner put a lot of thought into making guests feel welcome.

Trip to Port St Joe’s

We loved our time in Port St Joe’s , Reanna is very responsive and a great host! The property was cozy, the screened porch was so tranquil, lots of nice places to visit within walking distance. No traffic, small town with close 10 minute drive to Mexico Beach, white sands, clear water and clean beaches. Local shops to buy nice things, if you like to shop and are ready to spend some money. Many places to go swim, boat, or fish. Many places to eat or buy local from grocery store and grill or cook at property. Nice car parking in shaded car port. Sofa bed best for young teen. Beds comfortable and sheets and towels provided. Nice basket for pet parents, very dog friendly place to stay, with local walking or biking path, just a block away. Beautiful sunsets within walking distance. We enjoyed our stay!

Love the Great Tide!

We enjoyed our week stay very much. It was great to find an "old Florida home" so well maintained and updated with all the amenities. Our dog really enjoyed the fenced yard. Port St. Joe is a fun town with great restaurants.

About the host

Hosted by Raeanna Pitzer

Host profile image
Pitzer Properties is a family owned and family ran company that specializes in short and long term rentals. We are currently located in 2 states (FL & GA) with hopes to expand to the Smokey Mountains. We take care of our guests and are here for whatever our guests need. We look forward to you staying in our shabby beach homes where time is slow and people are friendly.

Why they chose this property

The Great Tide is the best of all worlds when it comes to vacationing at the beach. We are in the heart of Port St Joe so walk to dinner, go shopping or catch one of the trails for exercise. Then pick a beach. Our beaches are so public-friendly and spacious that doing a day at the beach is a breeze. A short drive and you can be several different beaches making your view and adventure different everyday! Our home is dog friendly and so are our beaches. So bring your fur baby and enjoy all that Port St Joe, St Joe beach and Cape San Blas has to offer. It's like "Mayberry" but by the Sea!
