Perfect December Retreat

Years ago we had spent time in Port St. Joe and this was the perfect place to revisit old spots and discover what has changed since the hurricane. The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed for our 12-day stay. We were able to walk to the bay, shops and restaurants, and the bike/walking paths were only a couple of blocks away. The owner was great to work with and responded quickly to any questions we had. All and all a great place to stay in Port St. Joe.

As good as itlooks

This is the second property we’ve stayed at. We would recommend this property. Remember it is upstairs, that did not bother us. Close to downtown and walking path. Reanna was great to work with.

Hidden Gem

Port St Joe is a little hidden gem and so is this vacation rental. Host was amazing and loved all the little things she thought of to make our stay amazing, from the extra toiletries (in case you forget something, which we did) to the snacks and water. There is also a basket for fur babies. Close to downtown where you can walk to restaurants and stores as well as the light house. Check in was easy and the home is very comfortable. We are buying a home in Port St Joe but will definitely be reserving this little gem for our friends and family in the future! Thank you to the hosts for making our stay amazing!

Staying in PSJ

This property was convenient to all activities. Loved sitting on the screened porch in the shade listing to the birds and enjoying the breeze. If you have knee problems pick one of the downstairs apartments. 15 steps carrying your stuff in may be difficult.

About the host

Hosted by Raeanna Pitzer

Host profile image
My husband and I have owned real estate for years and we enjoy sharing our homes with others. We absolutely love Port St Joe and the friendly people here and we think you will too. When in town we are often hanging with our guests, enjoying the local music and oysters and always watching the best sunsets ever! Make sure you see at least one while you are here - they are AMAZING!

Why they chose this property

We think that being in town is the best of all the worlds here in the Forgotten Coast. Walk to dinner, grab some ice cream at the Sugar Shack, enjoy the bay. If you want to be at the beach, grab a beach chair from the laundry room, your bathing suit and cooler and you will be sun bathing in 5 mins. Oh and don't forget your pup. Our units are dog friendly as well as the beaches in Gulf County. Being at The SeaDrifter is a great way to enjoy all that there is to do here in Gulf County and with the other units around you, you can always bring some friends too!
