This is a nice pet-friendly home. Check in/out was convenient, the house was clean, there were plenty of kitchen supplies, and the beach was a very short walk. We were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay. If I were to make any suggestions (though it really isn’t a deal breaker), it would be to have a grassy area of my dogs to potty. However, both my pups were fine with the area they had once they got used to it. I truly have no complaints about this home… it was lovely.

Very clean, up to date, spacious accommodations. The upstairs loft and extra half bath was a plus for our grown college grandsons. It gave them the space and privacy they needed. It is a short walk to the beach and shopping.

Excellent beach trip!

We loved our stay at Knee Deep. The property is just as described and was very clean and convenient. The house had everything we needed. We did bring extra detergent/paper towel/trash bags, but the kitchen was stocked and there were beach chairs and toys for the kids. The hose/shower at the bottom of the stairs was nice with plenty of room for parking and leaving beach gear. We loved the convenience of short walks to the beach, ice cream, and morning coffee. We used a beach service, but the beach was open enough we could have easily set up chairs ourselves. Crab hunting and sunsets at night were a highlight! We’ll be back!

Exceeded Expectations!

Very clean, spacious, comfortable. Was so pleasantly surprised by chairs and boards that were available for our use. LARGE load capacity washer for laundry. Easy to use appliances, short walk to Trading Post for odds and ends. My kids rented bikes and rode all over the cape. Two minute walk to a very quiet beach. Loved it.

Knee Deep is a great place to stay!

Knee Deep was very clean, is at a great location, and is spacious! The only two things I would change is the washer and dryer are downstairs and outside and the loft has no door making it impossible for the people upstairs to sleep in once everyone downstairs is awake. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful house, very roomy, and beach access is close!

Couldn't have asked for a better location and the house was amazing. The house had everything that we could want to just relax, cook, and go to the beach.

Great House!!

We loved the house! There were four of us, but we easily could have added 2-3 more people. The master bed is so comfortable! Everyone loved their spaces! We enjoyed the free double kayak. The house is a short barefoot walk to the beach. We used the grill and laundry downstairs. It all made the stay wonderful! I spent the mornings on the deck taking in the sunshine and quiet. We hiked at the state park, kayaked, swam in the ocean, rode our bikes 11 miles down and back on the awesome paved trail straight from the house! We had a puzzle going on the dining table at all times! This was one of the most relaxing vacations we’ve had! I’d recommend bringing your pickle ball gear, bring or rent bikes, kayak on the bay side (though we kayaked with the dolphins oceanside as well), bring binoculars for bird watching (eagles and more!), and come prepared to relax! Kitchen is well stocked! Stop at the Piggly Wiggly in St. Joe or Apalachicola! Relax and enjoy!

Knee Deep @ Coastal Joe Vacation Rentals

We had a wonderful stay, even with Tropical Storm Fred trying to ruin our trip. The accommodations were nice, clean, and very comfortable. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to others. Price point seemed about right for the house not being right on the water, but you can walk 75-100 yds and you are on the beach. Also, Coastal Joe was fantastic with their communication. We had a last minute issue with dog sitters, and Coastal Joe contacted the property owner and we were able to add that to our stay just a day before we got there. Awesome experience, highly recommended!

Beach house without beach access

House was clean and updated. Very nice on the inside. Felt a little weird with all the outside cameras. The disappointment was the beach no with access due to the washed out house in the ocean at the end. Overall we had a great time at my family’s house down the road just disappointed with the access.
