Wish we would have known…
Don’t get me wrong, we had a very nice time! And Stephanie was great and on top of things (a/c was acting up and she came over immediately to check it out and had someone come fix it). However, I felt like we should have known that the hand soap was going to be watered down (had I know , I would have taken our own!) there was not any dish soap or dishwasher soap or laundry detergent. However, we’re asked to wash the dishes, start the dishwasher and start a load of towels upon leaving. So, my question was: how did the guest before us wash dishes or towels without soap?😬. My thought is they didn’t use soap. So, upon arriving, and realizing there wasn’t any soap, we had to get back in the car and go get these things. We knew about the toilet tissue, paper towels and trash bags (and planned accordingly). If these things are too expensive for the owner to provide, I think charging $10 more per visit would be better than having to wonder if the guests before us used soap and have to leave immediately upon arrival to get these things. I understand these items may have just been forgotten about upon restocking for us, but it does have us thinking about whether this was the best option for our vacation.

Loved our stay!
We enjoyed our stay at this house and the location. The house was clean and had a great outdoor area that was screened in (the spiral staircase on the porch may not be suitable for tiny dogs or really young children-no gate.) The outside closet at the back of the house had some really nice beach items to use. The neighborhood was very dog friendly for those bringing your pets. I would stay here again!

Summer by the Sea
We met family down in CSB for a celebration of my mom’s 65th birthday. The house was perfect for our family (parents, 2 teens, 2 terriers). We liked the extra privacy of our own home vs a condo! A very short walk to a beautiful beach! The house had EVERYTHING and more - space, laundry, dishes, very comfortable beds, games, etc. Only recommendation would be to think about groceries before getting there - not too many options close by, especially for red meat and fresh produce. Not a deal breaker - just a recommendation! This was the perfect, quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of life! Thanks for having us!

Great place!
We LOVED our time in Cape San Blas and LOVED the house. Plenty of room for 6 adults and one toddler. We love the location and the layout of the house. Our only complaint is that there was not enough space to store food etc. in the kitchen. But we will definitely be back!
