About this rental
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.

About the host: Our family lives in Atlanta, Georgia. We love visiting Cape San Blas. The relaxed atmosphere and beauty of the area keep us coming back year after year.
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 Cape San Blas because it is especially 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.
Carrie will be managing your stay at Beach Camp and she can be a bit of a perfectionist. That's a bonus for you, as she promises to do all she can to make your time at Cape San Blas absolutely wonderful.
We are confident you will love Cape San Blas as much as we do. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions about our home or the area.

Very nice, clean and spacious house. Our kids spent a lot of time in the pool and playing shuffle board. Communication with the owner was excellent.

Helen, I'm so happy that you and your family had a great vacation at Cape San Blas and that you enjoyed staying at Beach Camp. We love that shuffleboard table and it's wonderful that your kiddos spent a lot of time playing. Thank you for choosing to stay at Beach Camp. I hope to welcome you back again soon.Carrie
Wonderful Family Fun
What a beautiful fully stocked with everything you could want house. The area is charming - If you want a place away from the crowded beach this is the place for you. We are a family of 10 adults, 2 teenagers and a 7 month old. The house was perfect for us. Beach just a couple minutes walk away and a private pool on the property. There aren’t enough words to describe the beauty of the area or the house. We could fish in the bay or play on the beach. The owners are great to work with and very helpful. A wonderful vacation.

Best House on CSB
This is our 3rd visit to Beach Camp! We LOVE this house. The house has everything you need. The kitchen is very well stocked for cooking family meals, the outdoor space with the pool and fire pit is great for making memories, the shuffleboard table makes for some competitive family time, and the views of the bay and the ocean from the decks are breathtaking. Carrie is is great to work with and she has an awesome team that helps keep the house in tip top shape. This is our home away from home and we have already booked our stay for next year. Trust me you need to checkout this house and any of the other homes owned by Cape San Blas Get Away. You will be glad you did!
