Pop in a DVD to enjoy a quiet night in while the private washer/dryer takes care of the laundry. Step out onto the balcony with a tropical cocktail and connect to the WiFi to send off that last work email.

Boasting some of the world's best deep-sea fishing, there are plenty of charter companies waiting to take you out to the open water.

Peaceful Getaway
The property was as described: clean, cute, easily accessible, and close to everything we wanted or needed! We had a great time of relaxation and peace! The hot tub was a nice bonus on the property, even in the wind advisory on our last day! Very refreshing!

Long walk from the parking lot.
Despite what the description says you do not have two designated parking spots. The C units are a long walk from the parking lot which my elderly parents appreciated. If you arrive after dark it will be challenging to locate the property.

Cute quiet Community - Clean comfy Cottage
First time to Port St Joe but not our last. This cottage community has a good location to the downtown area, swimming pool and hot tub were nice. The cottage itself is clean and very comfortable, nice updates. The primary bedrooms mattress is medium firm which was perfect for us (spouse is side sleeper- needs softer, I’m back- needs firmer), good go between. Loved the kitchen (a metal spatula would be helpful though) and the primary bathroom esp shower. The furniture and decor was casual beach without being cheesy. Nice to sit out on the screened in porch. We very much enjoyed our stay :)

Port St Joe
Location close to WindMark Beach was okay. Couldn't really walk to beach its a busy road but a short 3 min drive and easy parking. Town of Port St Joe is quaint with wonderful restaurants. Low key vibe area. The place we stayed was wonderful. Two floors 2 and 1/2 bath . Two bedrooms. One rom KIng and the other bunk bed and a single bed. Great for kids..not a couple.
