July 2024

This is our 3rd year staying at The Barefoot Cottages for our family vacation. This cottage was beautiful and somehow felt cleaner than the other two we stayed in. I did try and use the little vacuum cleaner to get up sand I tracked in and it was broken. Thankfully there is a broom and dust pan there as well. The only two things I looked for and couldn't find was a big stock pot and crab leg crackers. My son wanted me to cook crab legs for us. We had St. Joe Shrimp Company steam some crab legs for us for pick up instead and my husband used the kitchen shears to crack them. That worked pretty good! DG Market nor the Sunstop had crab leg crackers. I'm sure you could purchase some at the seafood market, we just completely forgot to ask. So, overall, we had a great vacation!! I love the atmosphere at the cottages and the ability to go to different beaches due to their location. The other two years, we weren't near a pool and didn't even look for one. This cottage has a pool right in front of it, which was fun. I will say, my husband wanted to use the hot tub but I highly discouraged it due to how nasty it looked. Other people's germs and hot water scares me anyway. The trees around the pool keep it all pretty littered with debris and bugs. We saw someone cleaning the pool in the morning time. I know this is lengthy but we definitely plan to stay again next year!

My husband and I love the Port St Joe area. We decided to come kind of spur of the moment this time. We chose the Barefoot Cottages because of the close proximity to the downtown this time. This was our first time renting one of these. The reviews for B17 ( Manatee cottage ) were so good, and we can say that we agree! So very clean! We never saw one bug, dead or alive inside ( I hate bugs ). Nicely decorated, comfortable and homey. Being off season ( Feb ), it was pretty quiet, even at the pool ( which is right in front of the cottage). Everything from the first, check in to check out went smoothly. We would definitely stay again!
