“We loved this house! Everything was clean and nicely updated. It was a comfortable size for our multigenerational family of 7. The kids loved the basketball game in the basement. The location was perfect and in a quiet neighborhood with friendly next door neighbors. The beaches we visited and downtown St Joe were all a quick 3-6 minute drive. Overall perfect for our trip!”
