About the owner: We fell in love with Cape San Blas our very first visit! We didn't even know it was a pet-friendly beach at the time and we've always had dogs and been dog lovers!
At the end of about 2 years we ended up owning 3 properties, all in Barrier Dunes, and were discovering more we loved about the Cape every trip! Our kids starting going to Cape San Blas when there were 4 and 6 and both are now in college. I look forward to enjoying the Cape with their families when the time comes!
When I started renting, I was a mom of young kids and realized it was a LOT of work to get ready for vacation, so I try to make it as easy as possible for folks renting with Cape Escape Vacation Rentals. I provide everything from beach chairs down to the little things you want when you're on vacation, but many forget...spice, trash bags, laundry detergent and LOTS in between. I also try to communicate as many details as possible before your vacation and provide a very complete guest information book about the area once you arrive so you don't have to do the research!
Some of our favorite things to do are: Bonfires at the beach after sunset, scalloping in the bay, kayaking, Indian Pass Raw Bar to enjoy oysters, crab legs & steam shrimp as well as great local music and company, a day poking around the stores (and eating) in Apalachicola many things!
I look forward to having you enjoy a Cape Escape soon!

Scott V.Peaceful Relaxing stay
This is our third visit to the Cape and while the weather was the least favorable, we still had a great time. I have always stayed at Cape Escape I and Wendy is a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her and the multiple units she has in Barrier Dunes. We always look forward to getting back to Cape San Blas. So much progress on recovery from Michael.

I'm so glad you enjoyed Cape Escape I and had a wonderful vacation! I hope you and your family will come back and make many more memories! Thank you for taking the time to review our home & your stay!Wendy Jackson
Cheryl W.AMAZING!!!!!
Cape San Blas is Amazing!!!! Our stay was fantastic compliments of our condo through Cape Escape Vacation Rentals. The Cape was amazing and it was so great to see how much business was alive and thriving so soon after Hurricane Michael. The beaches were beautiful, fishing was bountiful and our dog was able to vacation with us!!!! We will definitely be back. After telling our family about how amazing it was they stopped on the cape twice during their stay in a nearby town. See you again soon Cape San Blas

Christy S.A unique and wonderful place to stay and visit
Cape San Blas and the St Joseph Penninsula are amazing places to visit. We were interested in a place that had easy access to a beach and pool, dogs were welcomed, and was, above all, relaxing and fun! The Cape Escape was everything we wanted and more for our vacation. We will have to return to fully explore everything the area has to offer. I highly recommend staying there.

Angela S.Beautiful condo/Awesome beach!
My husband and I stayed at Cape Escape 1 at Barrier Dunes. This condo had everything we could possibly need for our stay, from kitchen items right down to the beach cart! It was big enough to carry our chairs and all of our beach gear with ease. We were a bit hesitant to return to Cape San Blas so soon after hurricane Michael, but the beaches and sunsets were still just as beautiful! We additionally got to witness a turtle laying her eggs on the beach...on Mother’s Day! Wendy from Cape Escape Vacation Rentals called us to let us know as it was nesting season. She remained very helpful during our stay, and promptly answered any questions we had. We were also lucky enough to see a bald Eagle on one of our day trips! We cannot wait to go back, and will bring our pups next time! The unit even had dog towels, and other pet items on hand. Although the Cape is still recovering in some ways from hurricane Michael it’s charm and beauty still remains. The resilience and spirit of its residents was evident in everyone we met.
