Fried Green Tomatoes is the special on our menu! Located midway down the peninsula, between The Cape Trading Post and Scallop Cove in Turtle Dunes, convenience is key for this beach home. Turtle Dunes is a small coastal neighborhood built of vacation homes with a community pool as the center point and gorgeous Cape San Blas just a short walk away from the property. The community pool sits directly next to Fried Green Tomatoes as if it belongs to the house. Just outside of the neighborhood entrance, you can jump onto the Loggerhead Trail, a bike, run or walk trail that extends from one end of the peninsula to the other. Situated on the southernmost point of the peninsula, Salinas Park Bayside overlooks St. Josephy Bay and includes amenities such as a kayak launch, screened picnic areas, public restrooms & outdoor showers, a fire pit, a sand volleyball pit, a playground for the kids, pickleball courts, and a gorgeous walking path along the bay. At the opposite tip of the Cape is the beloved St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, a natural paradise.
The natural beauty and adventure of the Cape are best experienced from the comfort of Fried Green Tomatoes. This beach home's base has a covered and open parking area and an enclosed outdoor shower steps away from the pool. With only one flight of stairs, access inside is more manageable than many of our area’s other vacation homes. Gulf View decks stretch the length of the home on the roadside as well as beachside. The beachside deck is screened-in with a relaxed dining & sitting area. You’ll enter the home into an open living area spacious enough for your group of 8 to spread out and enjoy. The coastal feel continues indoors with the nautical decor and beach style. All on one level, the living room, kitchen, and dining area are book-ended by three bedrooms. The first bedroom, separated from the other two by the living area, has a nice view that overlooks onto the deck. The master bedroom has access onto the screened deck with the bed sandwiched between windows allowing natural light and beach views to stream in. Enjoy the privacy the master bath provides. A second full bath is available from the living area and the third bedroom. The kids in the group will be excited to stay up late, sharing giggles in this bedroom with a set of bunk beds & 2 twin beds. Moms, students, or traveling workers will appreciate the bonus room, which provides a quiet place for laundry and studying/work at the small desk.
