Less than a 5-minute drive is the popular St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, known for its untouched beaches, tall dunes, wildlife, and great snorkeling. You will have access to the Gulf of Mexico and the St Joe Bay where you can launch kayaks and paddleboards. Visit nearby Salinas Park with pickleball courts, a playground, fire pit, or launch a kayak or paddleboard in the St. Joe Bay. For an amazing experience, you can horseback ride on the beach from Salinas Park. If you are interested in wildlife and natural beauty, plan a trip over to St. Vincent Island by ferry boat for the day. Hike around the island and explore our native wildlife and foliage. About 30 miles away is the historical fishing community of Apalachicola. It's perfect for a day trip to do a little shopping, stroll along the Apalachicola River or grab some of the best seafood around! You won't be disappointed!

This location cannot be beat! Steps from the white sand beach, far enough away from public beach access that you always have a great spot at the beach! The amenities were perfect and included everything you need at the beach with kids. The kids bunk room was perfect for them to relax after a long day on the beach. Would recommend highly!
Manager's Response
Thank you Kylee for your kind words and positive review.It is always great to hear when our guests enjoy their stay with us.The Bird's Nest is a very spacious yet cozy home perfectly situated on the Cape to enjoy the beautiful beaches and water of the Gulf. The beachside private pool is icing on the cake for this property. We look forward to a return visit and the opportunity to host you again. It was truly our pleasure.
Perfect Location
Cameron
We stayed at Amy's house for our family vacation. Our party was group of 9. The house has a great location right on the beach. The pool was also wonderful feature. The space was plentiful. Plenty of beds for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked and we used it most nights for our meals. Overall great trip!
Manager's Response

Perfect Family Vacation
Christina , Oshkosh , Wisconsin USA
The Birds Nest is located on the best beach area (currently) in Cape San Blas! The beach access was complete paradise to have!! Then the heated pool was constantly used by both kids and adults! The outdoor shower and hose were perfectly located along with a shed filled with all the beach and pool necessities!!! **do pack ant killer and bug spray The views off the decks were gorgeous! Wished there was a table and chairs on the top deck to enjoy a meal from! The kitchen was well equipped along with laundry! The garbage disposal leaked during our stay and Sunshine Rentals fixed it within 2 days. Overall this was the best vacation ever and we can’t recommend it enough!!! Thank you Sunshine Vacation Rentals and Birds Nest owners for sharing your slice of paradise!!!!
Manager's Response
Amazing! We love hearing stories like yours where everything comes together and beautiful family memories are made! This home offers everything anyone could want. Gulf front, private pool, elegantly appointed and full of amenities! You can't beat the Bird's Nest for a beach vacation. We look forward to your return to the area and the opportunity to host you again in the near future. It was truly our pleasure.
Lyn
This is a beautiful home in a great location. It was ideal for a family vacay with adult children and grandchildren. The beach was perfect, the views amazing and best of all — no high rise condos and no crowded beach. The kiddos loved the pool and the assortment of beach and pool toys was a hit. We will definitely be back and highly recommend.
Manager's Response
It thrills me to hear such positive feedback and pure joy when family vacations come together and are "perfect". The Bird's Next is a unique home directly on the Gulf and with a private pool. The amenities are endless. Family vacations are the best! I hope to see you many times over in the future as it will always be my pleasure to host you.

Perfect spot!
Anna Watkins, Ball Ground , Ga United States
We loved our stay at the Birds Nest! The beach access and large pool was amazing. It was such a relaxing and easy vacation our whole party agreed we will come stay again! We found so many unique sea shells, saw dolphins, crabs, and jellyfish! The water was perfect the whole week. We love Cape San Blas and are so happy we found the perfect house!
Manager's Response
Glad you have a wonderful stay at the Bird's Nest! Please come again.
Overall great time was had by all. Location is nice, house is a little worn and the pool wasn’t working but management ultimately gave us some money back to make it right.
