We would definitely stay here again. It was perfect for my daughter and I. We loved walking down and playing around in the bay at the park. Everything was clean and comfy. Richard gave us some great suggestions for restaurants and was very attentive to answering emails promptly.

Wonderful Place To Stay

This is the second time we have booked with Richard and Ginger. We have a yearly family trip to Port Saint Joe and always book to stay here so we can have our space with our dogs while visiting our family in town. The place is always clean, full of amenities, and is always a great price. Richard is so nice he even stopped by in person to check in to see if we needed anything. We will definitely keep staying here year after year for future family trips.

Do yourself a favor and stay at the Crab Shack! We loved it the moment we opened the door. It's the perfect getaway and located close to the beach, boating, restaurants and shopping. I've never stayed in a place with a kitchen as well furnished. The hosts are also a treasure. Richard was incredibly helpful and communicative. It was a wonderful experience all the way around. We will certainly be back again.

Great location, perfect for our needs, reasonable rates!

Cute little duplex, comfy beds & furniture, extra little touches, nice outdoor spaces, loved the walking trail with all the green spaces! Met the owner and he’s funny & nice. We also loved being able to walk into town to eat, shop, and watch sunsets over the bay! The ocean was just a 10 min drive where we parked along the road at a beach path. So not crowded!!

Crab shack was the perfect, quiet getaway for scalloping on Labor Day weekend. House was clean with cute decor and had a safe, extensive walking path behind the house. The hosts even stopped by to check and make sure we had everything we needed! Delicious recommendations for dinner within walking distance and all the kitchen attire was readily available for nights we cooked in. Highly recommend this place! Thank you! We will be back :)

Short vacation

We found that this adorable place was exactly as described and we loved the covered back porch in the mornings to enjoy our morning coffee. The location was great for adventures in town, the beach, and the surrounding area. We were impressed with all the communications with our hosts which were very timely and informative.
