Perfect house for a family

This rental was plenty big for the 6 of us, including a 5 yr old. Very spacious! The kitchen had everything we needed (a few more dish towels would've been great, but I always pack a few extras) The home is so pretty and tastefully decorated....not too over the top. We really enjoyed the screened front porch and open living area. There were a few minor issues but management always responded fairly quickly. It was a short walk to the beach, but needed to drive to the pool. Nice quiet neighborhood. The outside shower (with warm water) was especially nice! And the house even had a few beach items to borrow....a boogie board, chairs, and an umbrella. We ALL enjoyed our stay!!

Great spot!

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! This was our first time in Port St. Joe and we loved how the beaches weren’t crowded at all. The walk to the beach isn’t bad but the community pool is pretty far and we had to drive. I expected the pool to be bigger and we only ended up going once because it was so crowded on the day we tried it. The property manager was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. The house was clean and had everything we needed for our vacation. Highly recommend trying the Shipwreck restaurant which is only 7 mins from the house. So delicious! We will definitely be back and would love to stay here again in the future!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house exceeded my expectations. I love the privacy of the primary bedroom from the others. The photos doesn't do the high ceilings justice... This house was very clean and well maintained. We fell in love with the screened in front and back porch. I would definitely recommend staying in this home.
