Description Description
GRACELAND AT SECLUDED DUNES, formerly known as Parkside, is simply magical! The most uniquely placed home on Cape San Blas -- directly adjacent to 9 miles of pristine dune beaches of St. Joseph Peninsula State Park -- GraceLand invites couples, families, and friends to enjoy the fun, beauty, wildlife, and privacy of the Florida of your dreams! Breathtaking sunsets can be enjoyed daily on the huge, screened Gulf-front porch, while each bedroom and deck afford a view of the Gulf, State Park, St. Joe Bay, or the wetlands -- not experienced anywhere else on the Forgotten Coast. This 5-bedroom, 5.5 bathroom gulf front vacation home located on the north cape accommodates 11.

Previously enjoyed by visitors since 2008 as Parkside at Secluded Dunes, this beloved home was renamed after it miraculously survived with grace the category 5 Hurricane Michael in 2018. Following the storm and a million-dollar makeover, the body and soul of this family beach house have been refreshed and refurbished in every thinkable way into what is now the jewel of the cape: GraceLand.

To assist in your stay at GraceLand, your reservation includes $250 worth of adventure gear rental, delivery fee may apply. Sitting under an umbrella on the beaches, bike, or fish from a kayak in the Bay, this credit towards your vacation gear rental will ensure you have the adventure you seek. Shop for bikes, paddle boards, kayaks, beach chairs, umbrellas, or even beach carts. Your gear will be delivered to your beach house and will be waiting for your arrival.

Another Wonderful Stay at Graceland
The house was wonderful. It was near perfect upon arrival. We had no negative issues during the stay other than Tropical Storm Nicole. It was still a wonderful stay and really look forward to returning. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this property.

Greg, We are so glad to hear you had such a memorable time while with us at Graceland, it truly is an amazing home! We look forward to seeing you and your family again soon.

Best of Secluded Dunes
The beautiful home is the perfect location—last home on the beach before the State Park. It was spacious, gorgeously decorated, with comfy beds and pillows, a screen porch area that we lived in when weather allowed, and an inside open living space for cooking and playing board games that kept our family connected. The beach was not crowded, the white sand and colorful sunsets capped off just what this Midwest family needed from our vacation! I already miss the lapping of those gulf waves! Would definitely stay here again!

Seven Days Goes Fast
The house was better than advertised. The $250 equipment allowance was great. Equipment was waiting on us upon arrival. The house was very clean. Access to beach was perfect. Can’t say enough positive things about the property or rental process. Loved the technical aspects of the home. Figured out the TVs and remotes pretty quickly. The solar system demonstrates the owners commitment to the environment and the “Cape”. Have already booked for next year. Thank you so much for the use of your wonderful home.

Amazing beach front home
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing trip to the Cape. This home is amazing and lacks for nothing. We were disappointed the elevator and large ice maker were not in service. But it did not detract from the trip. Was best vacation we’ve had in several summers.

Hey Gennie! Thank you so much for the fantastic review! So happy to hear you and the family had such a wonderful vacation at GraceLand and enjoyed everything the Cape had to offer. We want to apologize for the inconveniences that took place during your stay, we did not plan for these appliances to break and have since been fixed after your stay. We do hope to see you and your family again soon!

Fantastic family vacation in Cape San Blas
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Graceland in Hidden Dunes is a lovely, upscale home that was perfect for our group of 11. We loved the location, as we enjoyed both the ocean and the bay (which is an easy walk away and feels like you are in the Bahamas! Plan to spend one day on the "bay-beach!" We loved the kitchen and gas stove, as we cooked together most evenings (there's a great little seafood market just down the road.) We loved the utility room next to the kitchen, the ice maker, the wine cooler and the extra space...especailly since we brought tons of groceries! The only issue was the wasn't removed from the previous guests and got stinky during the week. And, don't expect to use the didn't work all week. Other than those two things...this was the perfect house and the perfect week.

Phenomenal Views

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What an incredible stay-we have been coming to the Cape for 10 years and this was one of the best locations! This home has everything and then some that you will need for a carefree vacation. The views were stunning both the sunrise from the front porches and the sunsets from the back porches with comfortable seating to enjoy them from. Inside the home had everything we needed and was beautifully decorated.

Absolutely Amazing
We loved our time at Graceland. The house is just as lovely as it looks in the pictures. We especially loved the fully stocked kitchen. The owners went above and beyond with all of the little touches they added around the house. We had to contact the property management a couple of times and they responded quickly and followed up to make sure everything was resolved. The only thing I will mention is that the listing says the house has wifi but it barely works. We couldn't get more than two phones connected and and once we did it made the apps on the TV, like Netflix, unusable. We were planning on staying in the house and working remotely but had to leave after a week to go back to work. The internet provider came out to the house once but said the package provided is only 4MB so you might as well not have internet. Everything else about the house is nice but I thought it was worth mentioning. Overall, I can't say enough good things about the house and the management company.

Beautiful House
The house was beautiful! It was very clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was stocked very well with good quality items. We cooked every meal and we didn't have any problem not having what we needed to prepare the meal. The house was clean and the layout was perfect. Rooms were spacious and beds were very comfortable. (pillows were a bit hard). There were games and puzzles for the kids when the got tired in the evenings. The location couldn't have been more perfect! Just a few steps down to the water to spend the day sitting and enjoying the perfect ocean. It wasn't crowded at all with being right next to the park. There were a few "beach cars" that would park behind us and walk into the beach park area since they weren't allowed to drive into the park. The outside of the house was perfect! Where to start? The firepit! Was awesome in the evenings (when the bugs weren't bitting) It was so nice for the adults to sit around the fire in the evenings. The swings! So fun to sit and swing and enjoy the sounds of the ocean. The outside bathroom and shower! This really was a lifesaver! We loved the bathroom on the outside ground level. It saved us from having to run in and out of the house constantly making a mess. The younger boys also used the shower out there as well. In addition, there is another shower outside as well. Along with the hose to spray off feet/legs, there is no reason to track sand into the house! As perfect as Graceland is, there are a couple of negatives I'll share. 1) There aren't locks on any inside doors (even bathrooms). Which led to some awkward moments with kids running into rooms. 2) No blinds/curtains in bedrooms. While the sunrise was beautiful, i would rather have been able to sleep in a bit longer. Also, the house behind us had a clear view into one of the bedrooms. 3) The internet was pretty much uselsess. We got better connection using cellular than connecting to the wifi. We couldn't get the tv to really work unless we used our cellular hotspots. Small tradeoff with the seclusion of the house. Overall, I would say this is the best property we have stayed in. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice, clean, secluded spot on the ocean. Thank you for a lovely vacation!

Graceland Reflects A True Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: After 10 years on the Cape I have to say this house sits at the top as one that thought about everything and makes it a home away from home. It was the little things throughout the house that made our week here a joy and relaxing. My compliments to the Cape and Coast team for responding and keeping us informed through with their app. I would recommend this house to everyone and plan to book it multiple times in the upcoming months and years.
