About the host
Hosted by Raeanna Pitzer
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!
