About this property

Cape San Blas - Gulf Sunrise or Bay Sunset?

2-Kings, 4-Single Bunks.

"Salty Scallop" located on the South End of Cape San Blas in the secluded Cape Dunes (HOA with private deeded Gulf beach boardwalk just a 2-5 minute walk to beach with no roads to cross).

Beach house is centrally located to area restaurants and sites and serves as a perfect base camp for exploring Old Florida's 'Unforgettable Coast'. Nature enthusiasts will rejoice at the proximity to the Loggerhead Walking/Biking Trail that extends the 8 mile length of the peninsula. A two minute walk to nearby Salinas Park features: nature walk (bald eagles), multiple pickleball courts and the Scallop Republic (Tues.-Sat. after 5:00 p.m.) for the only craft beer/wine bar on the Cape featuring live music indoors and dramatic bay views. Drive 3 miles east to the famous Indian Pass Raw Bar for local oysters or 10 miles into downtown Port St. Joe to visit local shops and eateries.
One of the few properties on the Cape that has peak-a-boo views of St. Joe Bay from the front deck and the Gulf of Mexico from the back deck.
There is enough room for a comfortable stay for four adults accompanied by up to four children. (Sorry, absolutely NO Pets or Indoor Smoking). Kitchen is complete with fridge, electric stove, microwave, coffee maker, Keurig, 4-slice toaster, cooking essentials and other luxuries of home plus a stacked washer and dryer.
Cook outside on the large industrial charcoal grill. Central AC with ceiling fans in all bedrooms if you enjoy a slight breeze. Open the master window and be serenaded by the sound of waves at night. Bedrooms feature new mattresses and bedding. Up to 1 Gig Wi-Fi internet with ethernet accessibility to 'work from home'. Living room has 65" Smart TV with Sling, Netflix, Disney+, Pluto, ROKU so you can enjoy a movie. Master and Guest bedrooms are equipped with televisions for local Panama City Beach, FL and Dothan, AL broadcasts via antenna ABC, CBS, NBC, CW. But, who wants to watch television when there's so much to do outdoors?
Bring your fishing gear and grab a saltwater license because the onshore fishing can be great fun. Or, bring your bathing suits and take the kids swimming in the Gulf of Mexico (keep an eye out for dolphins and the seasonal manatees).
Drive 11 miles north to the end of the Cape San Blas peninsula and visit T.H. Stone Memorial St. Joseph Peninsula State Park ($6 entry fee). There you can experience what The Travel Channel and 'Dr. Beach' has named America's #1-Ranked beach and Top State Park!

Nice but needs some work

Overall we enjoyed our stay but we immediately noticed some things that should’ve been fixed. Pros: Close enough walk to the beach. Comfortable beds, enough seating, sufficient cookware and dishes, beach wagon, kayak, bikes, beach toys, beach chairs, nice tv setup, easy parking, quiet area (while we were there), close enough to bike and walk to Salinas, a few odd and end pantry items leftover were helpful, the washer & dryer worked well. Cons: The lock on the doorknob on the front door is useless, the new flooring looks nice but the thresholds were missing and the floor itself is uneven, the fans in the bedrooms are on remotes but they were connected so we had to figure out the best way to compromise (There may have been a way to fix this but I never got the chance to message the owner.), there is a dehumidifier in the master bathroom, if you run it it gets warm, if you don’t run it there is a musty smell, the Keurig only worked sometimes, the master bath was missing the doorknob, it was in a drawer. We did enjoy our stay but we likely won’t be back until we know the musty smell in the master bath is gone and the front doorknob is replaced.

Florida trip 2023

Love staying in the community. House was nice but has some flooring issues, master bathroom door knob was missing and towel racks were coming off the wall. Other than that, everything was great. Issue’s definitely didn’t hinder our stay at all. The kids loved the beach and we love the quietness of the community.

Pleasant stay

I myself did not stay on the property. The company I work for requires a lot of travel and we like to get VRBO's to make their longer stays more comfortable. Robert was so helpful and accommodating when we needed to book day of and extend our stay due to weather delays in work. Our crew enjoyed your property very much!
