We made it home safe and we were definitely sad to leave! Thanks for making everything easy for us. It was a wonderful week! Thanks again and we will definitely be back!

Thanks for making everything EASY! Will definitely be back!

Very close to clear, clean and wonderful beach! Unit is very clean, we did not have pets but could not tell pets had been there previously! Unit has all of the comforts of home – fully stocked kitchen, board games, books, and all of the HDTV channels! Wendy (owner) was very easy to work. Would definitely stay here again!

Clear, clean, wonderful beach. Clean well-stocked rental.

Our pups loved Cape Escape 1 just as much as we did! We had an absolute blast. The closet had plenty of beach items for us to use which made packing a lot easier. We were able to bring out canopy out to the beach using the beach cart which we were so thankful for. Wendy is wonderful and we will continue coming back for more fun. She answered all of our questions and more. Can’t wait to go back!

My dogs & l love Cape Escape I — had a blast!

A paradise for the entire family, including the furry ones. Excellent place to relax and forget about the stress of life. The house had everything we could possibly need and more. It is decorated nicely and kept really clean. Our dogs had a blast and we finally had the vacation we dreamed about it. We wanted a place to really rest, enjoy great views and be worry-free about our dogs because they were with us. It worked really great. The communication since inquiring, reserving, getting ready to travel and after completing the trip was 100% best customer service ever. Wendy is great, she kept us informed and she was open for any questions we might have. We are definitely going back and we have already told our family and friends about the place and posting great pictures on Facebook. We loved our stay and can’t wait to go back. Thank you for everything.

Paradise for the entire family…including the furry ones!

Cape Escape was very clean and well kept. We had a issue with a toilet but I texted maintenance and it was fixed the next morning. I appreciated having the large pot for doing crab or shrimp boils. I also appreciated having a crock pot to cook a slab of ribs. We loved the location inside the barrier dunes. The whole family loved the decks and watching the turtles in the back. We would wave our arms and 60 turtles would show up.

It is a short walk to the beach. The rental came with a cart but we didn’t need it.  It is right next to St. Joseph Park. Here you can rent kayaks and go out to the bay. Don’t take the dogs to the park.

In Barrier Dunes, we enjoyed taking our dogs and seeing other people with their dogs. The neighborhood even leaves a supply of doggie bags for everyone to clean up after them making it more enjoyable to everyone. The beaches are white and clean!!

​We loved making a fire on the beach the last night of our stay, playing music and dancing! If you are into horseback riding, call Sand and Spur!! Get your bags packed and enjoy this area along with Port St. Joe and Apalachicola!! Plenty of shrimp and oysters to go around.

Lovely place away from the hustle and bustle of life. Bring your dog!!

Cape Escape’s units are always clean and have everything you need. We have stayed at the Barrier Dunes numerous times since the late 1980s and it is a nice development with all the amenities that blends into the landscape unlike a giant concrete box. The beach is lovely and dog friendly.

Great Beaches and Dog Friendly

“Walking on Sunshine” is a great place to spend time with family and pets. We enjoyed having so many amenities and the condo was decorated very nicely with lots of extras.

We especially enjoyed our time on the deck. Sunsets were incredible and the beach is right there. Barrier Dunes is a great place for pets. We met so many nice people and our dog Freddie loved meeting all the other dogs when on his walks. We highly recommend “Walking on Sunshine” for everyone, especially with the great service you will receive from Wendy. She’s the best!

Barrier Dunes is a great place for pets

We just finished the best vacation in thirty (30) years at Barrier Dunes #15 – Gulf Breeze. These are the things that we enjoyed. The direct view of The Gulf and the porch off of the living area. It was a great place to rest with our buddies (dogs) and to enjoy the great weather (in January). We rode our bike frequently and found the closeness to St Joseph State Park and the bike trail along side 30E to give us a safe trail and enjoyable scenery. Conehead’s restaurant, which is within walking distance, tuned out to be one of our favorites. Their seafood gumbo is tremendous. They have a full menu with quality food at a reasonable price.

The beach was fabulous and the other guests were friendly. Everyone was dog friendly and took responsibility for their pets. The pet stations and walking areas in the facility were handy and well planned out. The condo was equipped with everything one would need & more and the information provided helped to be familiar with the community. When I needed assistance, Wendy & her staff, were prompt & professional in helping us. We definitely will be back. Thanks for a wonderful time.

We definitely will be back

Hi Wendy. We made it back ok… snow…yuck! I rather be walking on the beach! Now I understand why retirees become snowbirds! Cape San Blas was everything you said it would be. It’s the perfect place for us. We met so many wonderful people too, very friendly and welcoming.
We hiked, played tennis, fished, went to the gym in port st. joe a few times a week. next time we will bring our bikes and Angelo wants to get an ocean kayak to explore the bay. There’s so much wildlife to see: dolphins, sharks, deer, birds, alligators, snakes, manatees, wow…everyday…something different. We went to Wakulla Springs State Park which was beautiful (and educational). We went to some of the local restaurants you suggested and the food was great.

The local folks are so helpful and sweet, which made our visit even more special. Our dog lexi had the best vacation of her life!  We really needed to get away after the holidays and just relax… we enjoyed every day in Barrier Dunes…and the sunsets are so breathtaking! You have a great place there Wendy, it felt so homey and comfortable, we didn’t want to leave. Thank you for the best vacation ever!

It’s the perfect place for us.
