Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian W. Sep 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice place Pretty much everything was great but, there were a handful of things that may have swayed my decision to book this property if I had known beforehand. 1. The refrigerator doesn’t cool very well so you have to intermittently add items that aren’t cold yet. 2. The distance to either the beach or the bay is just enough to be cumbersome but, it is situated at about the halfway point so, if you intend to go to both, it’s pretty convenient in the sense that you don’t need to drive. 3. There was a leak from the inside AC unit that we were notified of, the day before arrival. The leak had likely been active for a week or two because there was a large section of ceiling sheetrock in the living room that had recently been replaced. That didn’t bother us a bit but, there was an incredibly strong mold smell on the day we arrived. We had to open all windows and doors to let the place air out for several hours and pick up a couple of air fresheners to tame the smell. Afterwards, it wasn’t as noticeable and our stay was fine, minus some mild allergies. All in all, we are happy with our stay but, there were a few things that could have been better. ##### Brian W.

Jun 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Place We had a wonderful and relaxing vacation at Take a Chance! The house was exactly as described—very clean and comfortable. Access to the bay was a major highlight. We rented kayaks and spent time fishing every day, enjoying sightings of sea turtles, crabs, and even dolphins!The walk to the beach was a bit farther than expected, but it was a beautiful, peaceful stroll. The master bedroom mattress could use an upgrade or at least a topper for added comfort.There are a few areas that could use some attention. The deck railings felt a bit wobbly when leaned on, and a few of the patio chairs were rusted and should be replaced. The laundry/storage room downstairs was incredibly spacious and great for keeping all of our beach gear organized, but it could benefit from a thorough cleaning.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future! ##### Jennifer C.

The home is very close to the beach. The community pool is only a few blocks away and the private walkway to the beach. The house was well stocked with towels we needed and cooking utensils needed. We made a fresh shrimp stir fry one night from the shrimp we got in Port St Joe . The home is very close to Port St Joe where there are lots of nice restaurants I recommend the Quatro Locos the White Marlin and the Smokehouse all great food. We saw a lot of Stingrays swimming when we were at the beach. I had one recommendation to cover the front door with a blind or curtain for extra privacy. Thank you Vince for a beautiful place to stay we look forward to returning to the area again. God bless you and your family and team helping you. ##### cheryl l.

The location was perfect as we enjoy visiting the state park frequently while we are on vacation. There are a couple of suggestions that we have: the rooms need more lighting. The lights are very dim. The bathrooms need exhaust fans. When we would take a warm shower, we had to open the bathroom window and leave the bathroom doors cracked open to keep the bathrooms from completely fogging up. The bottom shelf in the fridge door is broken; found out the hard way when after placing items on the shelf, they all fell to the floor. The house also needs more dishes and a decent grill. It would be great to have screened in area at this house due to the mosquito population because of the pond. Sitting outside was unbareable. There also should be extra linens/blankets in case of sand being on sheets. The televisions were a little aggravating as the living room tv was a smart tv and the bedroom tvs are not. The channels were a bit difficult to navigate. The underneath parking is super tight! I drive a small SUV and would have to back out into the open driveway in order for anyone else to get into the house. The access to the beach and bay are a little deceiving in the pictures online. They are further than portrayed. In July and 90degrees out, it is not a comfortable walk to either. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katelyn P. May 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect spot for our honeymoon! We had a great week at Take a Chance! We loved having the little walking path right across from the house or having option to walk a little further to the gate access to get to the beach, we also walked to the bay access a couple times. Very accessible house and location! The only thing we would’ve liked, was to have a Keurig coffee maker, we’re big coffee drinkers. The fridge did okay but the freezer had a hard time. We will definitely be back! Loved this place! ##### Katelyn P. Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris H. Apr 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful property in a great location This is a great property in a great location. Checkin was smooth and everything we needed was there. You can see the gulf from the front and the bay from the back, along with the pond, so the scenery is great. We watched a variety of wildlife operating in that back pond- birds, turtles, alligators. I hope that we have the opportunity to stay here again! ##### Chris H.
