We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this condo. The condominium complex is very nice and well maintained. The condo itself is well maintained and comes with everything you need to cook dinners and entertain kids with games. It has a nice patio that overlooks the lake. The complex itself is a great place to walk your dogs, as it offers many Pet stations around the complex. I would definitely stay in this cndo again. The communication with the homeowners was excellent during our stay. Nothing bad to report.

This is a great area to stay in. It's a gated community, and we often leave things in the carport area without a second thought. Two pools help on the rough seas, double reds, for the kids to be entertained. The turtles in the pond were fun to watch, and there were several bags of food provided to feed them. I would highly recommend this location to anyone staying in Cape San Blas. If more than one family is visiting, I would recommend that everyone find a location within this community.

All of the condos in this community are so wonderful - this one didn't disappoint. You enter to a drop zone which is nice for sandals, dog leashes, etc. Up the stairs to your living/dining area with a nice comfy couch and a reasonably stocked kitchen. They also had baggies and tupperware already there - which is convenient. Bedrooms and W/D are upstairs - beds were comfy. One thing to note - it does get warm up there even with fans running. It wasn't so hot we couldn't sleep but you can definitely feel the rise of the temp. Shower pressure was good. Dryer needs a few runs to dry fully. For the beach materials - they have a closet on property with cooler, chairs, and cart. We only used the chairs and those were in perfect condition. There are two kayaks on property and it would be cool if owners would be willing to charge for daily use. There is a rinse off/dog washing station which was AWESOME to be able to throw the dog (and myself) in there on the way back from the beach. One thing I would say is to potentially clean up the check in process. I was getting emails, texts, and looking in the app for all the check in information and the document I received had a space designated for the codes, but they didn't populate - so I ended up having to call the owners (who were super responsive and got us in right away). My preference would be all in-app communication so I don't have to go searching through different mediums for info. Overall, we had a blast and 10/10 would recommend.
