Best vacation house

This cottage had almost everything. Wine glasses and cooking utensils. It was missing the wine opener but i brought my own as a backup. It was clean, close to the beach and the screened in porch and balcony was amazing for watching the rain or enjoying the outside without bugs. Bed was comfy, and the rooms were large. I’m sure i will return to this beautiful beach house next time.

Room for improvement

Nice area.great pool. House next door had dog poop all over the front and in the baking hot sun it smelled so bad. Floors were not clean. Baby crawling everywhere got black hands and feet. Only 1 paper towel was provided and the beds weren’t made. Room for improvement.

AMAZING Cottage

This was our 1st time in Port St. Joe/Mexico Beach area. We were so impressed! Loved everything about the cottage. It was clean, nicely decorated, and spacious for all 7 of us! The room with the queen bed and bunk beds was perfect for all of our teens! Loved the screened in porch with water hose. Very convenient when we wanted to rinse off our feet, etc. The pool and hot tube were wonderful too. We loved the convenient location to Port St. Joe and Mexico beach!

Best Barefoot

We have stayed in a few of the Barefoot Cottages. We liked them all, but this one was the best. The property was very clean, tastefully decorated, and quiet. The cottages are in a nice location to explore the forgotten coast. We frequent Crooked Island and the state park at the Cape. Had some nice tasty black drum, sea trout, and whiting from the surf, cape and under the bridge in PSJ.

Clean & pretty

We checked in right at 4 to get ready for supper. The entire cottage was nicely decorated & so clean. Great location & quiet. Beds were comfortable. But as we were getting ready, we realized not a single outlet in any of the bathrooms worked & there was no remote for tv in guest room. I reached out to management, they said they would get local management to handle it. We were only there 3 nights & the outlets weren't working until late on the 2nd night & they never did anything about getting a remote for the guest tv. I'll ask more questions next time. I rent qith specific things in mind & having a tv is one. May seem petty but i expect to get all if what i pay for & for the electricity to work in all rooms & quickly when notified.

Beautiful and cozy!

Loved the bunk beds and full size bed in the upper room for the kids. Usually there aren't that many beds in one room but with our three we needed it and it was perfect for our week long vacation!!!!

Beautiful place to stay!

My husband and I fell in love with this cottage during our recent stay. It was clean, had all of the amenities that you would want, the rooms were spacious and the place was very charming. We really enjoyed our time at this cottage and would definitely stay here again in the future! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Nice and spacious

This place was very nice, however the floors were dirty. we had to wear shoes the whole time. The porch was great and was safe for the grandchild! The beach is a two minute drive. The pool is close by and was great.

Nice place for a family with children.

The house was lovely. Perfect for a family. We chose the location because it was central to the areas we wanted to explore. Wish the pool was heated though. The gate code would not work and local property manager never got back to us with a solution. Had to wait for others to enter or exit to get in each time. Very frustrating.

Cottage #10

Loved everything. But, there wasn’t any dishwasher pods. Also the tv in the master bedroom didn’t work, so Andrew came and switched it with the one in the other bedroom. The floors made my socks and feet pretty dirty. Other than that, everything was great. We love staying at barefoot cottages! I’m sure we’ll stay there again.

Very clean

The place was very clean and location was perfect. It was the perfect amount of space for our family of 4. I really disliked that no hairdryers were provided. I usually would never book a place without them but this was a last minute trip and I forgot to look. The directions also said parking passes would be on the counter. After not finding them and contacting through messages sent to me, I was told the local management would get in touch. I never heard from anyone. I finally found them the day before check out tucked back behind some other kitchen items. The master sheets don’t fit and were constantly popping off the mattress. Other beds seemed fine. Kitchen seemed well stocked. I appreciated the toiletries.

Overall good

Some of the pictures posted were outdated, however the cottage was still nice and clean. Couches were a bit worn out. Would not recommend staying here if you have a toddler as we had to keep her from the stairs. There was no safety barrier/baby gate. Was a short walk to pool. Beach public access nearby was not kept as clean as Mexico Beach but was a short drive from cottage. Overall a good place to stay, would go back when kids are older as we now know what to expect.
