Beach Camp is a stunning new vacation rental home located in the private, low density neighborhood of Ocean Haven. Completed in June 2015, Beach Camp boasts amenities like no other vacation rental home on Cape San Blas. This includes a custom made 19' shuffle board table in the game room, 4 decks with both gulf and bay views, an extremely private pool in a natural setting, original art, large outdoor shower and changing area and outdoor game area.

Beach Camp is a 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom vacation rental home. The bedrooms include two master suites, one bedroom with a king, one bedroom with two full beds and a bunk room with two sets of built-in twin bunk beds.

The is plenty of space for families to gather in both the game room and the great room. Located on the 2nd floor, the game room includes a smart tv and a table for playing board games and doing puzzles. The centerpiece of this room is the beautiful shuffle board table lovingly made from reclaimed barn and bowling alley wood. It is a beautiful table, a ton of fun to play and is the only shuffle board table on Cape San Blas.

The great room on the 3rd is a large and open space with a vaulted ceiling made from 100+ year old reclaimed beadboard. The ceiling will take your breath away. It is a work of art! From the center of this room you can look to your right and see the gulf and then turn to your left and see the bay. The views are amazing. We feel family meals are important especially on vacation. The family table is where memories are made. Because of that, we have built a table (from the same barn would used to make the shuffle board table) that can comfortably seat 14. It's a stunning table and we hope will be the place your family gathers to enjoy a meal, share stores, laugh and create memories.

There are a total of 4 decks at Beach Camp. The gulf side decks have both gulf and pool views. The bay side decks (one private off a bedroom and one off the great room) both have beautiful bay views. Both the gulf and the bay decks on the 3rd floor have reclaimed cypress wood bars. These bars are the perfect place to enjoy a meal or a drink.

The pool area at Beach Camp is like no other on Cape San Blas. The private and natural setting makes it easy to find a good book, settle into a lounge chair, take a deep breath and just relax. The kids can entertain themselves in the pool or by playing games on the artificial turf area. The beach closet is stocked with several games in addition to all the chairs, boogie boards buckets and shovels you will need.

The trip to the beach is an easy one. From the gulf side of Beach Camp you will walk along a flat nature path approximately 300 yards to the boardwalk. Signs guide your way. Ocean Haven has a dedicated neighborhood beach walk-over that leads to to the beautiful sands of Cape San Blas.

After a full day at the beach and the pool your family can gather around the fire pit at Beach Camp. Six Adirondack chairs and two tables ring the fire creating a comfortable place to just sit with a glass of wine or roast marshmallows for s'mores. Just imagine the memories that can be made under those unforgettable Forgotten Coast stars.

Wonderful!

We stayed at Beach Camp over Spring Break, and all I can say is wow! We have kids ranging from 3 to 16 years old, and it can be hard to please everyone. But, between the pool, the beach, the fire pit, and the awesome shuffleboard table, we never had a dull moment. The house decor is top notch and really gives you a “beachy” feel. Working directly with Carrie (the owner) makes it so much easier, too. We have booked with vacation rental companies before, and they are fine...but nobody has ever gone the extra mile to ensure our vacation was perfect like Carrie. We will be back!

Kendra and Aaron, I am so happy to hear that you had a great stay at Beach Camp while visiting Cape San Blas. When designing the home we worked really hard add elements that would appeal to all ages. It makes me smile knowing that it did just that for your family. We love that shuffleboard table too. :) . Thanks for booking directly with me and I look forward to welcoming you back to Beach Camp soon. Carrie

Fabulous Beach House!

We had an amazing family, fun week at Beach Camp. The house is beautiful and very well stocked from the kitchen to the outside storage room. The decor is fabulous and every inch of this house is impeccable! The elevator was very helpful for bringing in suitcases and groceries. Also, for the old folks not having to climb the stairs. There is a short trail walk to the most beautiful beach! It was awesome we were allowed to bring our fur babies! I can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay. Carrie, the owner, is so easy to work with and was always available if we had a problem or question. We definitely will be back! 😎❤️

Cape lover

We recently stayed at Good Fortune with our family and another family. Good Fortune was fully stocked, it had everything you could ever need or want while on vacation. When we were searching for a home off the beaten path we settled on the Cape. I sent Carrie an email with a lot of question about rates and other details and she immediately responded with a phone call. From day one her communication was great! We received detailed information about the home and places to go in the area for groceries, tours etc. The home was the perfect distance from the beach-just a short walk down the boardwalk that was right off our patio. While walking along the beach in the morning we saw a group of dolphins off the shore playing. Almost daily while swimming we saw dolphins close by. The community pool was across from the home and was very private! We were so pleased with our stay we had Carrie keep our down deposit so we could book for the following spring break!! If you are looking for the perfect home away from the business of tourism this home is for you!!!

Best Cape San Blas Experience

We have stayed at Beach Camp in 2018 and 2019 and have plans to return in 2020. Carrie is wonderful to work with and is very professional in her attention to the upkeep of this beautiful home and the satisfaction of the guests who stay there. Beach Camp is conveniently located on the main road, close to the Trading Post and Weber's Doughnuts (yum) and the beach is a short walk away. The home did not sustain any damage from Hurricane Michael, due to excellent construction to CAT 5 standards. Our children and grandson were very happy swimming in the excellent-size pool, which can be heated for an additional fee. Carrie provides plenty of pool floats, beach toys, chairs and even a beach cart. Everyone enjoyed the indoor shuffleboard and the many table games that were provided. The kitchen is well equipped and the long dining table can accommodate large groups of family and friends. Having an elevator is a plus when bringing in suitcases and groceries. This is a pet-friendly home (additional fee is charged), as are the beaches. The only upgrade we suggested is to have more firm mattresses than are currently provided. Staying at Beach Camp or Carrie's other homes will insure you have an amazing Cape San Blas experience. Harry and Kay Reed

Harry and Kay, Thank you for being such wonderful Snowbirds! It is so special that you get to spend so much time at the Cape with your long-time friends and family members. I'm so happy that you enjoy Beach Camp and plan on returning for the third time in 2020. Thanks for the feedback about the mattresses. That is a tough one as everyone has different preferences when it comes to firm or soft. We will be sure to keep an eye on them to ensure that they are in excellent condition. Carrie

Great Vacation

We greatly enjoyed our week at Beach Camp. It was the first time in 12 years that all 4 generations was able to go on vacation together. We even has our 2 fur babies with us. The private pool was great for my new 7 month old grandson while the older kids hit the beach every day. The island was great and not crowded. We will definitely go back again

Angie, I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed your week at Beach Camp and were able to spend that special family time together. I'm glad to hear that the pool was great for your little one. We were hoping that our littlest guests would enjoy that shallow sun shelf. Thanks for choosing to stay at Beach Camp and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Carrie

Beach Camp

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Beach Camp. It was our first time staying in the CSB area and the change of pace and beautiful scenery were a welcome change from the bustle of PCB. The home is gorgeous - fully equipped with everything you need for your stay. Seriously.....Carrie has thought of everything! The kitchen was a pleasure to cook in - even on vacation. The walk to the beach is an easy one. Great views from the decks and beautiful sunsets. The pool was a great addition that was enjoyed by both the teenagers and adults. The elevator was so convenient for my elderly parents to get from floor to floor and to be able to enjoy the house fully. We would highly recommend this vacation home and hope to return again.

Blair Family, I'm glad to hear that the switch from the bustle of PCB to CSB did not disappoint and I am thrilled that you chose Beach Camp for your very first stay at the Cape. I hope that it won't be your last. I'm also thrilled that the home had everything you needed including the elevator for your parents. Being able to all be together is so special. Thanks for your kind words about our home. I hope to welcome your family back to Cape San Blas soon. Carrie

Wonderful Week of Rest

Beach Camp hosted our annual extended family beach trip. Over the years we've stayed in a number of houses throughout the panhandle, but this house topped them all. The condition of the house was pristine, the layout generously accommodating, and the location was just the right distance from the beach and provisions at the Trading Post. The house has so many facets to discover from the shuffle board table to the serene porch areas. The layout of the house provides space to enjoy being together as well as space to be by yourself and enjoy a novel. As you live in the house you realize one thing...Carrie has thought of everything. I'd encourage anyone staying at Beach Camp to pack minimally. You'll find everything from beach chairs to spices at this house. So glad we chose Beach Camp this year and hope to return in the future.

Bryan, It was wonderful to be able to welcome you and your family to Beach Camp. I am so happy that the home had everything you needed so that you could just focus on relaxing and enjoying that special family time. We hope to welcome you and your extended family back to Beach Camp again soon. Thanks for choosing to stay in our home. Carrie

Perfect Vacation

We stayed at Beach Camp for a week recently and it was a perfect vacation. The house is beautiful and well stocked. The owner was a dream to work with and responded quickly to a question I had about the house. One night my entire family went out to the beach, 14 of us, and had a small bonfire made smores while watching the sunset. If this was not perfect enough there were dolphins playing in the water too. Thank you for a beautiful home as a backdrop to this beautiful place.

Mary, It's so special when those dolphins are right off shore. I'm so happy your family got to see them. Thank you so much for you sweet words about our home. Thank you so much for choosing Beach Camp and we hope you will come back and visit Cape San Blas again soon. Carrie

Beach Camp

We were lucky enough to have a brief stay in Beach Camp. This enormous home is perfect for multiple families. It is well-appointed and left us lacking nothing during our stay. Love the fire pit! I even got into the very cold pool but only did that once only because I was dared. The trek to the beach is nice along the secluded path and boardwalk...fun for kids. Loved having the elevator for our elderly family member. CSB is a wonderful place - have been visiting here for many years. It is so peaceful and quiet, beautiful beaches not packed with people and the park is something to see with its large dunes and amazing bay views. We even tried a few of the newer restaurants in town (Sand Bucket and KrazyFish Grille) and loved them both. Our favorites remain Peppers, Indian Pass Raw Bar in PSJ and Owl Cafe in App. Carrie will take good care of you during your stay in Beach Camp. She was kind enough to phone us to make sure we were settled in.

Melissa, We were lucky to host you at Beach Camp for this short stay. I'm happy that you got to "enjoy" the pool and then warm up by the fire pit. Our family loves having that fire pit too. I'm glad that you found Beach Camp to be well-appointed and that you lacked for nothing. I work hard to make it "easy" for guests to vacation at my homes and try to stock them with everything one might need. We hope you will consider Beach Camp again when you return to Cape San Blas. Carrie
