About this property

"First In Line" Beachfront with Bay Views!

*Beach Restoration has been completed for the area in front of First in Line. Heavy equipment may occasionally pass by while construction continues further north. New photos taken 7/4/26 uploaded.*

First in Line is a beachfront retreat located on the highly sought-after North Cape of Cape San Blas. True to its name, the home sits “first in line” just past the iconic rock wall, offering unobstructed access to the beauty and tranquility of Florida’s Forgotten Coast.

The North Cape is known for its breathtaking sunsets and crystal-clear waters, creating a peaceful backdrop that feels untouched and private. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck in the morning or watching the sky turn gold in the evening, every moment here is framed by natural coastal beauty.

This area is also a favorite among anglers, with some of the best fishing on the Cape just steps from your door. Directly across from the home, the bay offers calm waters perfect for kayaking, and a nearby kayak launch makes it easy to get out and explore at your own pace.

Nature is all around you at First in Line. Bald eagles are often seen nesting nearby, and it’s common to spot dolphins swimming just offshore throughout the day. It’s a place where wildlife and relaxation meet, offering an unforgettable coastal experience.

About the host

Hosted by Erica Tessereau

Host profile image
We are the Tessereau and Pirtle families—Scott, Erica, Cole, Lauren, Will, and Reese, along with Doug (“Pappy”) and Darlene (“Nana”). We have been visiting Florida’s Forgotten Coast for over 30 years, building a deep love for its natural beauty and laid-back charm. In 2021, that love became a dream realized when we purchased our own vacation home.

We are so excited to share this little piece of paradise with you and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Every visit over the years left us saying, “Why don’t we just move here?”—and in 2024, we finally did just that. We packed up our entire family, including grandparents and in-laws, and made Port St. Joe our home.

Now, we’re grateful to welcome others to experience the same special place that captured our hearts.
