A short drive to shops, stores, restaurants in “downtown” Port St. Joe. Just beware there are steep steps to get to the bedrooms. But all in all, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again if we ever find ourselves in the area. ##### Michael W.

Reviewer Comments: My family enjoying staying at this location. The master bedroom bed was amazing! The kitchen was well-stocked. The convenience of location was perfect. The only downfall was you can’t easily walk to the beach, but there are numerous beaches easily accessible if you drive a little bit. Thanks so much for providing such a great experience for our family.
