About this property

3 Bed, 2 Bath home steps from private community pool and minutes from the beach!

This home has been in my family for 25 years. I am thrilled to give other families an opportunity to build memories here, just like I did visiting my grandparents when I was growing up.

Enjoy your stay in this gated private community, a close drive to Front Beach Road attractions and beaches but far enough away that you can enjoy privacy and quiet. Sleeps up to 10 in three bedrooms (1 king, 1 queen, 2 full beds) and a pull-out sofa. Across the way from the community's private pool and walkable to Shipwreck Island Waterpark; no competing for parking!

The multiple bedrooms at JD's House makes it the perfect fit for two or more families looking to share a "home base" for Little League tournaments. It's centrally located between Publix Sports Park and Frank Brown Park - less than a 15 minute drive from each!

Walkable dining across Middle Beach Road at Another Broken Egg Cafe and Bella Roma Tuscan Grill. A short drive to local favorites including Firefly, Bayou on the Beach, Saltwater Grill, Lotus Cafe, Oceans Bar and Grill, and Beef O'Brady's. Fast food staples within a 10-minute drive: Sonic, Starbucks, Culver's, Whataburger, Papa John's, and Chick-Fil-A.

Within a 5 minute drive to local activities such as Rock 'It Lanes, Just Jump Trampoline Park and Royal Escape Rooms. 10 minutes to Zoo World, Ripley's Believe It or Not!, Coconut Creek Family Fun Park, Wonder Works, Race City Amusement Park, and Slingshot. 15 minutes to Hidden Lagoon Mini Golf and Race Track and the shopping and attractions at Pier Park. Great golf nearby at The Holiday Golf Club and Marriott's Bay Point Legends Edge Golf Resort.

Minimum stay is flexible; book direct!

**PLEASE NOTE FOR RESERVATIONS BETWEEN NOVEMBER 1 AND FEBRUARY 28 THAT THE POOL WILL BE CLOSED FOR THE SEASON**

The house was a nice 3 bedroom,2 bathroom. Perfect for our family and close to the beach without being on Beach Front Rd which is so busy and noisy.

It was great. The picture is a little deceiving as it's not near the ocean and the pool is closed this time of year. But all in all it was a very nice stay.

Hi Theresa, I am glad you had a nice stay and appreciate the honest feedback regarding our listing. We want to ensure our listing accurately represents the property's proximity to the beach and reflects the seasonality of the pool so have updated it accordingly.

Loved this house!

We are from Oklahoma. My son played in a little league world series there in PCB. The house was clean, close to the fields, and other attractions. It was nice, after a long hot day at the ballpark, to come back to place that felt like home. Loved the little yard and pond next to the house. Liked that it was a gated community and close to the pool. Definitely will stay again and recommend this property to anyone! Thanks for allowing my family to enjoy your home!

Guys fishing trip.

We have been coming down for 6 years now to fish. This property was the cleanest we have had. If your looking for a place that’s close to the beach, affordable and plenty of room, I would strongly suggest looking at this property. The owner was on point if we needed him and helped us to the best of his abilities if something came up.

Exactly what I expected

I wanted a place away from the crowded craziness off the condos and front beach road. This house was perfect…. Strongly recommend it. Visit St Andrew State Park Beach as well. Less crowded and just as beautiful. James (host) was great and just a text away if needed.

Great house

We had a great time here, the owner supplies a large collection of dvds of all genres, very clean home. Very nice location, reccomend trying "Another Broken Egg Cafe" within walking distance. Sometimes you can hear frogs in the small clearing right next to the house, we had so much fun finding frogs. The owner was very friendly and easy to work with. Our only complaint is the master bedroom king size bed was terribly uncomfortable for my partner and I.

Great location!

Family of 7-great location and 5 min drive to the beach. I suggest Public Access number 40. Beside Burger King. You pay for parking but worth it. Doesn’t cost much. We would swim in the pool earlier in the day and beach evening. Less traffic flow then. It was perfect. Walking distance to many stores, restaurants, and the beach 10- 15 min walk.

My name is Catie Ruschak. My great-grandparents lived in PCB since I was a kid, and bought this house in 2001. I have many great memories visiting the area as a child. My uncle inherited this house in 2008 and kept it in the family, turning it into a vacation rental for other families to enjoy and make memories in. It is my honor to extend his legacy be maintaining this vacation home for other families to continue to enjoy.
