About this property

SOUTH COTTAGE Nice and Quiet Cabin, No Crowds Just Simple and Beautiful

A quaint, rustic get away cottage for the family!
The South Cabin is a large one room with one Queen Bed, one Full size bed and a sitting area with nice TV, Cable and Wifi. A small kitchen off the room has sink, apartment size fridge with freezer, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and ample supply of dishes, etc. Has small bar to sit. Has charcoal grill outside. One bath with shower. Large screened porch to enjoy the days...and nights. Wildlife is still here. The cabin is nestled among the oaks, pines, palms and palmettos at the Old Saltworks Cabins, a civil war historic site. Seclude and quite here and just a short walk to the bay to enjoy a day on or 'in' the water. The bay is hard pack sand bottom, pristine waters and great for all water activities, fishing, exploring. Shallow for a ways out so you see so much! Children love it. (pets and parents do too!) Great place to call home and explore the Cape.

Really rustic, won’t be back.
There was trash on the driveway, by the house, and on the porch.In the dressing area two out of three bulbs were burned out, the third died later. The outside light by the door was dim and flickering, we had to leave a flashlight out so we could find the keyhole. There was no dead bolt and windows didn’t lock.TV remote was missing a battery and a back, but it didn’t matter since there were so few stations available. In the kitchen the hot and cold water taps are reversed, and there’s no ice maker or ice trays. For cooking there’s just a hot plate, electric skillet, microwave, and toaster, no oven, so we couldn’t heat up leftovers unless we wanted them soggy. The window AC was so loud that we couldn’t sleep without ear plugs. There were no hooks for purses hats, leash, or keys, nor lines to hang wet towels and bathing suits. There were no hangers in the closet, nor a shower mat. The well water stunk of sulfur, which made showering and brushing teeth disgusting. We bought at least seven gallons of water to avoid drinking it. The freezer on the front porch reeked of fish, and stayed running although we weren’t using it.The hose out front leaked too.We hit the store in the nearest town and bought a ton of supplies, and left the light bulbs, batteries, and shower mat for the next tenants.The mgt company never returned our phone calls, they did come on Wednesday to fix the broken light by the front door. For a few more dollars per night we could have stayed somewhere much nicer.

Functional, good location
The description of “just a step above camping” is very accurate. The cabin is very simple and gets the job done. We loved the location. There is a beautiful bay at the end of the street with a small boardwalk you can enjoy. We loved the bike trails that are right there and will take you all over the cape. We loved the close proximity to the gorgeous beaches, and Cape San Blas is a true gem. The cabin has a great air conditioner that works very well. We enjoyed sitting on the front, screened-in porch. Bring a fan with you to enjoy it a little bit more. All appliances worked well. The Weber grill outside is great and we enjoyed cooking on it. There’s a deep freezer on the front porch that was super convenient. The shower is hot. Towels and sheets seemed clean and we slept well in the beds. The TV has limited channels but it was plenty for us. The cabin does not seem well maintained nor clean. It is purely functional and nothing is fancy or overly attractive. Don’t forget plenty of big protection. It’s got a nice secluded, woodsy feel but that of course brings lots of bugs. Also, bring your own dish washing soap. There is none in the kitchen.

Great little cabin!
I could not have loved this little cabin more. Loved the private location, the trails around it, the easy access to the bay on its own little boardwalk. It was very clean and functional, not posh, perfect for us. Quick relaxing trip from Nashville to fish and scallop. Away from hubbub, perfect.

Poorly maintained
This place has so much potential but was poorly maintained. When we got there I wasn't sure I was at the right place because everything was grown up. There is a picnic table and a BBQ grill in the yard but couldn't use it for the grass was to high. I was disappointed in the yard and the trails around it for they were unusable. But where I draw the line is that evening as I pulled the covers back on the bed for me and my 3 year old granddaughter to get in I found blood stains on the sheets and one of the pillows. I had to make several calls before I could finally get ahold of someone to at least take care of the sheets. Once I got that taken care of we enjoy are stay at Cape San Blas, and if everything at the cabin was maintained I would have enjoyed that as well. Definitely not what was advertised on this site.

Nice rustic cabin
My husband, two grandchildren and I spent 5 days at this cabin. It is rustic and clean. It has the essentials. A window unit keeps the main area cool, but the kitchen area stays warm. We brought a fan with us and was able to stay comfortable.
