DETAILS: Lion's Paw—named after the hard-to-find seashell—is a beautiful 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home that sleeps 10 in the North Cape community of Cape San Blas. With Gulf and Bay access, this pet-friendly retreat is less than 100 yards away from the nearest community boardwalk that leads to both the community pool and the dog-friendly beaches of Cape San Blas. This home includes 2 inviting porches, a patio area with a grill and picnic table, a reading nook, and more.

Inside this custom-built, professionally decorated 2-story home, guests are greeted with a large front porch and 3 sets of French doors that open to the first-floor great room. The open living space boasts tall ceilings, hardwood floors, and plush furnishings facing a large TV and fireplace(not for guest use). The well-appointed kitchen has high-end appliances, spacious granite countertops, and a sizeable island that doubles as a 4-stool breakfast bar—cooking has never been easier! Gather around the traditional dining table that seats 6 on rattan chairs while enjoying neighborhood views from the surrounding picture windows. With multiple doors leading out to the screened-in back porch, there are plenty of options for enjoying the natural setting, including ample seating and a bar table on the porch, as well as a patio area below with Adirondack seating, a picnic table, a propane grill—and even an outdoor shower. Both first-floor guest bedrooms feature king beds and French doors that open onto the back porch, allowing for sunset views over the dunes. There's also a laundry room to keep swim gear fresh and clean.

Escape to the tranquil second-floor landing with a cozy reading nook and a dedicated workspace. Subtle design elements in Lion’s Paw pay homage to the timeless 1946 Florida children's classic by the same name, written by Robb White, including the beautifully inlaid compass flooring that mimics the children finding their way throughout the book. Charming! Also, discover 2 spacious bedrooms on this floor—one has a king bed and the other has 2 twin beds.

With more than 2,000 square feet of living space, Lion's Paw is perfect for friends and family. Adjacent to St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, on-site parking for 3 vehicles makes it easy to explore the area.
