The unit we stayed in was clean and spacious for all 6 of us. The pool is perfect and tucked in nicely with privacy when you don’t want to be at the beach. The absolute best parts is sitting on the screened in porch at night listening to the waves and chatting with the family.

We had a wonderful stay at Salty Dog on the Rocks! The property is great, wonderful screened in porch, right across from the beach, in the cutest and quietest neighborhood. Like a previous reviewer, we found the King size bed to be too soft, but we just folded out the Murphy in the living room and used that, worked out just fine. The kitchen is nicely equipped. We like to cook and they had everything we needed. Other than the bed just not being to my taste, the only complaint I have is that I couldn't figure out how to get the clothes washing machine on cold water, but maybe that was user error. Matt was around & available for suggestions or any issues and was a great host. Overall, such a great vacation! We will be coming back! ##### Susan T.

Excellent location, it was like we had the beach to ourselves the whole trip. The house is cozy but perfect for what we needed. The porch/outdoor areas are very nice. The owners are on site and are absolutely great. We had a flat on checkout day and he was nice enough to air our tire so we could make it to the shop to get a plug. The pool is perfect. Not far from the beach at all. You can hear upstairs guest walking occasionally but that's honestly to be expected with any multilevel set up. It didn't bother us and the dogs quickly got used to it. We used a sound machine to help.The dishes in the kitchen weren't the cleanest (likely cleaned by previous guest). Not a big deal, we just washed things before we used them. We would definitely stay here again!! ##### Kendyl T. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### melissa a. Oct 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Quiet Area of Florida We enjoyed our time at the Salty Dog! The house worked well for our family of 3 & our small dog. Super easy check in. The house was clean & the kitchen was well stocked w/cooking supplies. The outdoor space was great! It’s hard to tell in the pics, but the oversized screened in porch w/the long dining table & sitting area, is a private porch for this unit only. We loved this area & ate all of our meals out there…you can see see a small bit of the ocean from it. I believe the other screened porch in the pics can be used by guests from upstairs, too- it’s on the side of the house along with the grill, cornhole, firepit, & pool area. The boardwalk for beach access is literally right in front of the house. The closest people to us on the beach may have been 50 yards away which was so nice. The water wasn’t very clear during our stay-more of a murky brown, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying it. The road you see in the pics (between the house & the beach) is just a neighborhood street that people walk on, & only drive on to access their homes…not busy at all. Super quiet, calm, nature protected area (and pitch dark at night) & very close to the quaint downtown of Port St Joe, Cape San Blas, and Apalachicola. (There are bears in the area but we had no issues.) The owner was extremely kind and gave us tips for the area. We enjoyed our first stay in this gorgeous, quaint area of Florida, and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Matt and his Salty Dog properties again. ##### melissa a.

My husband and I had a few last minute days off work and decided to take our boys and go to the beach last minute. We were so lucky to find the Salty Dog! Wonderful owners with their own dog, Chance! Even with teenagers and a dog, we had plenty of room. The house and property is beautiful. Pictures haven’t been updated so it is even better in person. Great for families or just a couple. The beach is so close and really private! You won’t be disappointed! We hope to go back in the fall. Thanks for such a relaxing stay! ##### Dabney C. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Katherine C. Mar 8, 2019 #### Great place We enjoyed our stay in the unit. The front porch with its view of the ocean and sea breeze was lovely, as was the pool. The place was clean, except for the sofa cushions, but I covered them with the dog sheet, which is a great idea. However, only one burner of the two-burner electric stove worked, and it had no oven. There was a large toaster oven, but it didn’t work at all. I called Dawn less than 24 hours after we arrived for a 6-day stay to discuss the stove, but she never called me back. I doubt there was much she could do about it on short notice, but she could have at least had the courtesy to return my call. ##### Katherine C. Stayed 6 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joy B. Oct 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Better than expected I would first like to say that Matt, the property owner, is one of the most wonderful people we have ever rented from. We have visited this area 16 out of the past 20 years, he went above and beyond to make our stay as carefree and comfortable as possible. Can’t thank him enough for this. The property itself was more than we expected. We’ve always stayed on the beach, this was our first house not right at the waters edge. Even though we were across the street from the water we still felt like we were beachside that’s how close you are. It’s really just a short walk, so close you can leave your window cracked open at night and still go to sleep enjoying the peaceful sound of the waves. The house is beautiful and was very clean. The property is very carefully thought out with every amenity you could think of. We loved the screened in porch and also enjoyed the heated pool. This is one would definitely return to. We brought our 7 month old pup with us and she had the time of her life. Willow is now 100% a Salty Dog and I know she would love to visit Matt and the beach again next year!! ##### Joy B.
