Nestled in the serene Ocean Haven neighborhood on the northern end of Cape San Blas, Beach Camp offers the perfect blend of relaxation and fun. This home features a private heated saltwater pool, an elevator for easy access, and a shuffleboard table for friendly competition. With four decks providing stunning gulf and bay views, it's an ideal setting for larger groups to experience the tranquil charm and vibrant spirit of the Cape!

Since its completion in June 2017, Beach Camp has set a new standard for luxury and leisure on Cape San Blas with its distinctive amenities and thoughtful design where new meets nostalgia in a stunning vacation retreat.

At the heart of shared moments and laughter is our custom-made 19' shuffleboard table, crafted from reclaimed barn and bowling alley wood. The game room, with its smart TV and board game table, opens up to four decks offering breathtaking gulf and bay views.

The outdoor experience at Beach Camp features an extremely private and naturally set heated saltwater pool. Adjacent is a fire pit surrounded by cozy Adirondack chairs, perfect for evening storytelling under the stars. The kids (and kids at heart) will love the outdoor game turf area, stocked with games for endless fun.

This 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home accommodates large groups comfortably with two master suites, bedrooms tailored for every need, and a bunk room designed for dreams and whispers. The great room on the 3rd floor, with its 100+-year-old reclaimed beadboard ceiling, offers a breathtaking setting. Here, both the gulf and the bay vie for your attention, complemented by reclaimed cypress wood bars on the decks for enjoying meals or drinks with a view.

Understanding the value of shared meals, we've crafted a custom dining table from the same barn wood as the shuffleboard, seating 14 guests. It's more than a table; it's where your family will gather for meals, laughter, and memory-making.

Your journey to the beach is a simple stroll along a nature path to Ocean Haven's dedicated neighborhood boardwalk, leading you straight to the pristine sands of Cape San Blas.

Please note, Beach Camp is a smoke-free property, maintaining its pristine condition for all guests. Discuss our no-smoking policy with your party to ensure a comfortable stay for everyone.

Come and let the waves whisper their welcome, and make Beach Camp your personal slice of paradise on the Forgotten Coast.

Wonderful Week

Everything about this property was top notch. The owner was very responsive and quickly resolved a couple of very minor issues that we just needed a little guidance to solve.The home was well stocked with everything we needed.The kids tended to make a little noise playing in the pool but there are no other properties very close, so their fun didn’t bother any neighbors.We had a great time and I would recommend this property.

Thanksgiving Week Getaway

We chose to spend Thanksgiving Week away from home for a change. Beach Camp at Cape San Blas was home away from home for that week. The check in process was flawless as Carrie reached out multiple times to inform and check on the process. The house was very roomy and immaculate. We couldn't have asked for better accommodations. The beach, as advertised, is a short (5 - 6 minutes) walk away. There were plenty of beach chairs made available. Weather was nice practically the whole stay. We wouldn't hesitate to come back to Beach Camp for a future getaway.

The pictures do not do this property justice. We had an amazing time with our extended family. Very clean, plenty of room and everything we needed and more. Our host was quick to check on upon arrival and very responsive when we had questions. I highly recommend. Cindy L.

Amazing Spacious House

We loved our time at Cape San Blas and the home was great for our large family. Enough room to spread out and also hang out. Easy walk to the beach and the pool was a welcomed amenity.

Great Family Vacation Home

The house was beautiful! My famiy, sisters, parents, and our kids just stayed the past week here. 13 of us. It fit us all well, we did not feel overcrowded. The pool was nice. The walk to the beach was not horribly long. My parents and I agree (I'm 30 yrs old) this was by far one of the best vacations we have had. Thank you Carrie for the great communication and allowing us to stay!

Disappointed

We unfortunately all came down with a severe stomach bug within 6 hours of arrival to the house.We had two infants the morning of checkout vomiting and having diarrhea.4 out of the 6 adults were still having the same issue as well.We were trying very hard to get out of the house with the vomiting babies by 10am. We were able to get all our belongings out and to the cars by 10am. The owner was watching us on cameras and called to harshly reprimand me about the check out policy.When I tried to explain that we were out of the house and trying our best to load the cars in the condition we are all in she was completely unsympathetic and cold.I understand the check out time and we all really wanted to be well on our way home. We made sure to be out of the house by 10am and when I told her that she said “10am means off the property”. I explained to her that my husband was strapping down everything in the back of the truck, but she had no sympathy for our situation that week. Once we left we realized that I had left my very expensive set of hair cutting shears so I immediately called the owner two times in a row right after speaking with her to ask if she could please unlock the deadbolt since she had changed the code at 10am and we didn’t have entry to the house. She did not answer. My husband then called her from a different number and she answered right away. We had a rough week and the owner made it so much worse in the end. I would not recommend renting from this lady.

Beach Camp

Beach Camp is a wonderful beach view rental for both large and smaller families. The kitchen is the best equipped of all houses that I have rented at CSB. Furniture is nice. The pool is the right size for which to cool off for little ones.

Can’t say enough about this remarkable home!

Beach Camp is the perfect home, perfect location, perfect hostess, perfect amenities! I almost hate to give this home such a great review because it might become so popular that we won’t be able to reserve another vacation. The home decor was outstanding. The kids loved the green area and the pool. We all loved the fire pit which was much handier than carrying wood to the beach. The outdoor closet was packed with beach, pool and yard supplies. The kitchen was very well stocked for the days we cooked at home. The short nature walk to the beach was enjoyable, especially with the beach cart. Carrie has made sure her home is home to whoever comes through the doors. We’ve been coming to the cape for close to 10 years and this is by far our favorite. Thanks, Carrie, for sharing your home with us. We WILL be back. (FYI - I see a shuffle board in my future.)

Why they chose this property

We visited Cape San Blas for the first time in 2001 and immediately fell in love. The water was perfect, the beaches weren't crowded and we could bring our dog. We especially like the North end of The Cape because it is very quiet. The amazing T.H. Stone Memorial St. Joseph Peninsula State Park is so close to the house and the dune structure on that beach is like none you have ever seen. Beach Camp boasts a very private pool, a custom made shuffleboard table and amazing Gulf and Bay views from all four decks.

What makes this property unique

We worked really hard to think about how we could make this house as 'easy' as possible in which to vacation. Just a few things that make Beach Camp pretty special:

Very Private Pool - You can't see any neighbors from the pool at Beach Camp!

Custom Made Shuffleboard Table - It's a beauty made of reclaimed barn wood from Georgia. It is the only shuffle board table on Cape San Blas.

Custom Made Dining Table - It's important to us that everyone can sit and enjoy dinner together while on vacation. The amazing dining table at Beach Camp easily seats 14.

Bunk Room - The kids will love their built-in bunk room. Each bunk has an individual light for reading before bed.

Amazing Reclaimed Beadboard Ceiling - We love old things and wanted to add some historic touches to our new home. The entire ceiling in the 2nd floor living space is made of reclaimed beadboard from Valdosta, GA. It's beautiful! The only ceiling like it on Cape San Blas is the one at our other home, Good Fortune.

Huge Outdoor Shower Under the House - I really don't like my dry things getting wet when I shower in a small outdoor space. We've made our outdoor shower large enough so your clothes and towels never get wet.

Quiet Dishwasher - I promise, it's quiet.

Large Pantry - Our kitchen has a large, walk-in pantry so that all of your groceries can be stored out of sight.

Four Decks with Sunrise and Sunset Views - Beach Camp has 2 covered decks on each floor for a total of 4 decks. From the west facing decks you have a beautiful view of the Gulf and the amazing Cape San Blas sunsets. From the east facing decks you have a beautiful view of the Bay and the sunrises.
