Area Attractions:
When you are ready to venture out, visit St. Joseph Peninsula State Park for access to the beach and the bay. It offers natural hiking trails, miles of untouched beaches and access to launch kayaks or paddle boards.  For an amazing experience, you can horseback ride on the beach from Salinas Park. Visit nearby Port St. Joe for shopping, restaurants and entertainment.  Downtown offers cute shops along Reid Avenue, many restaurants and grocery stores.  Don't forget to check out the historical Lighthouse and Sea Turtle Museum. We love our sea turtles!  Mexico Beach is just a few miles away and offers restaurants and shops.  If you are interested in wildlife and natural beauty, plan a trip over to St. Vincent Island by ferry boat for the day.  Hike around the island and explore our native wildlife and foliage.  About 30 miles away is the historical fishing community of Apalachicola.  It's perfect for a day trip to do a little shopping, stroll along the Apalachicola River or grab some of the best seafood around!  You won't be disappointed!  There's so many options to do without crowds or traffic!

This home is pet-friendly, and allows up to 2 dogs with a maximum weight limit of 50 lbs each.  If you choose to bring a pet, a charge of $140 will be added to your reservation after you book.

This was a great place to stay. It’s an easy walk to the trading post for food/drinks/supplies. We saw dolphins from the deck a few times and loved being so close to the beach. We fell asleep to the sound of the ocean and can’t wait to return.

Manager's Response

So glad you had a great experience! We look forward to hosting you again soon.

What a wonderful home! Spotless upon arrival. Great kitchen and fully stocked dishes and cooking gear. Everything was brand new. The porches and Adirondack chairs were one of our favorite spots to hang out and watch the gulf views. Our host was super responsive if we needed anything. Thanks for a great stay!

Manager's Response

We are so glad you had a great time at the Lazy Turtle! Thanks for the positive comments regarding cleanliness as we strive to provide excellent housekeeping services. The Lazy Turtle is the ultimate beach getaway and we are so proud to be managing it! Please come again!

The property was perfect for our family of 7. With a 4 year old and an infant, we were happy to be so close to beach and pool. The home was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again! Suggestions: More dish towels in the kitchen. Two was not enough when cooking at the home.

Manager's Response

We are happy to hear our home was able to comfortably accommodate your family for your vacation! We strive to stock our properties with all your possible needs during your stay. Thanks for all your positive feedback and we can't wait to see you again soon!

The house itself was very very nice. We had issues with our door codes in the house was not very well supplied regarding there were no beach towels, and the kitchen was not very well equipped. No decent knives for food prep, and no platters for food serving. Unfortunately, the beach had eroded quite a bit, in the location of the house and it was in a bit more crowded area than we do generally stay when we go to Cape San Blas

Manager's Response

Thank you Amanda for your kind words and recommendations. We pride ourselves in providing an awesome experience for every guest and are very sorry we did not exceed your expectations. We have taken these recommendations and are making improvements so on your next visit with us we can "wow your socks off". It was indeed our pleasure hosting you.

Perfect!

Location is very nice although the beach tended to be crowded because it’s very narrow. It would be helpful to have had access to the downstairs space where the washer and dryer are instead of having to go outside and around to the side of the house with use of the elevator.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your kind words and recommendations. We are thrilled you enjoyed your time on the Cape at The Lazy Turtle. We look forward to the opportunity to host you again soon.

Beautiful property and awesome location! The laundry being in the basement was a little inconvenient, but otherwise a great stay.

Manager's Response

Thanks Moira! We are so happy that you had a great experience!

Great place; easy access to beach

March 2023

Overall

Our stay was exceptional ; everything as advertised and more; ‘Boardwalk Access’ right next to house was amazingly easy and convenient (rent beach cart with credit that comes with this property; pretty much rolled itself down boardwalk to beach being slightly downhill). While there is a home in front of this property, you still have a satisfying view of beach without spending the extra premium to be ‘on the beach’; I could spend some more time on details, but overall we would rent this property again and again if available next time(s) we vacation on the cape; lastly you can’t put a price on the conveniently close general store that has everything you need and is an easy walk (can’t put a price on being able to the walk to the donut stand before they sellout in the mornings either)

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for trusting us with your vacation to the Cape! We are so pleased to hear you had a great time. We look forward to seeing you next year.

House was brand new. Nice floor plan and easy access to beach. Great time of year to go to Cape San Blas

Manager's Response

Thanks, Michael, for taking the time to review this new property! It really does check all of the boxes. I am happy that you found everything that you would need in a "home away from home" rental. As always, we look forward to hosting you again.
