Come & escape to the beauty of Cape
San Blas & Barrier Dunes. Cape San Blas is located 50
miles SE of Panama City between Port St. Joe & Apalachicola,
just E of Mexico Beach & W of St. George Island!
Cape San Blas, FL is 20 miles long and a mile wide
at it's widest point! St. Joseph Bay is on one side and
the Gulf of Mexico is on the other. Ten of the 20 miles
consists of St. Joseph Peninsula State Park and there are
no high rise condos. This allows for an uncrowded and unspoiled
beach--lot's of room for you and your dog to enjoy! Your
dog is welcome on the beach with NO TIME RESTRICTIONS!
Barrier Dunes is a secure, gated community with 2 fantastic
pools. One is located directly on the dunes with a beautiful
view of the ocean and a great clubhouse. Barrier Dunes also
has tennis courts, fishing ponds, boardwalks throughout
and several pet stations!
St. Joseph Peninsula State Park is located right next door
to Barrier Dunes and offers excellent access to the bay
as well as 7 miles of undeveloped, unpaved pristine wilderness
area, bay access and beach. Enjoy rare views of sea birds
& other wildlife. We took a boat out in the bay and
saw dolphin dancing around the boat, schools of stingray,
starfish, sea urchins, sand dollars, fish and crab! The
clear water bay is one of the cleanest in Florida &
provides excellent snorkeling, boating, fishing, crabbing
& scalloping.
THE CAPE ESCAPE I: 2BR/2BA. You will find an oversized King
master suite w/dedicated balcony, dressing area w/double
sinks, walk-in closet, bathroom w/separate shower &
an over-sized bath on the upper floor. The lower floor has
a fully-equipped kitchen overlooking the dining area &
family room, a Queen bedroom, & a full bathroom. The
family room includes a cable TV, & a sleeper sofa.
THE CAPE ESCAPE II: 2BR/2.5BA. 100 steps from The Cape Escape
& on the lake! On the upper level is a King & Queen
bedroom, both with private bathrooms and porches. They both
have Cable TV & one has a VCR & the other a DVD!
2 of the 3 decks overlook a large freshwater fishing lake
& the condo is 200 steps to the beach or the gulf front
pool! Both are supplied by the owner with GREAT amenities!
