About this property
Old Florida, Quite, Historic, Completely Remodeled, Near The Beach
A beautifully restored Historic home on Indian Pass, Jubilee Cottage is the ideal place to create wonderful family beach memories. Spend hours laughing on the front porch with friends with the sound of the surf to keep you company.
Originally a dairy farmhouse, the home was built in 1910. In 2005, the cottage was relocated to Indian Pass from Port St. Joe and lovingly restored. The renovation preserved all of the cottage’s original charm while adding every modern convenience. Early 2010 brought even more renovations. New furnishings, linens, and appliances dress up the home just in time for its 100th anniversary.
The quiet beach of Indian Pass will make you feel like you have found the last undiscovered beach on the planet. Spend your days lazing in the sun, building sand castles, or watching for dolphins. Plan to build a beach bonfire one night for roasting marshmallows, chasing Ghost crabs, and counting stars. Sea turtles nest in the area from May-October and Turtle Patrol Volunteers take turns early every morning looking for signs of a new nest to secure.
Love to fish? Charter a boat at the Port Saint Joe Marina for a deep sea adventure, put your own boat in the water at the Indian Pass Campground boat launch a mile down the road, or enjoy casting and catching from the shoreline. Not to be missed is the famous Indian Pass Raw Bar a few minutes from the house. On an honor system, help yourself to a cold beverage in the cooler, grab any available chair, and catch up on the latest gossip along the Forgotten Coast with the locals and folks wishing they were locals. Fresh oysters and shrimp caught in the area’s waters are served along with quite a few hot dogs.
While the beach is the highlight, the cottage is right in between Port St. Joe and Apalachicola. Both towns offer plenty of restaurants and shops to explore. The Owl Café is a favorite restaurant in Apalach for lunch or dinner. Spend time browsing through the historic Grady Market and you will surely find something you just can’t live without. Head West on C30 to visit Port St. Joe. Visit the Farmer’s Market along Reid Ave on Saturdays in the summer, catch an outdoor movie, grab a meal and/or drinks at one our delicious local restaurants.
We love to cook and the kitchen is a chef’s dream. A professional gas range and oven, stainless steel cabinets and prep areas along with new gadgets and appliances are highlights. The Big Chill Retro Refrigerator is a nod to the vintage kitchen that once graced the cottage. Enjoy dining on the screened porch just off of the kitchen.
The living room has plenty of space for your family to chat, grab a book, or cheer for your favorite team on the flat screen TV/DVD.
The cottage really has two master bedrooms. Bedroom one has an elegant peacefulness. The attached bathroom has a large shower with an antique stained glass window for light. Bedroom two has crisp white linens and a pop of bright colors here and there. The attached bathroom has a tub and shower. Both rooms have queen sized beds, TV/DVDs, and IPod stations. The third bedroom also has a queen bed and provides a desk.
The back porch has a private outdoor shower perfect for hosing down sandy kids, dogs, and husbands. Speaking of dogs… four legged family members with perfect manners may be able to join in the fun. Special approval, and fee required. Well behaved owners are allowed to bring their dogs on the beaches of Indian Pass.

We had a wonderful stay at the Jubilee Cottage! Our family was pleasantly surprised by how incredibly charming the house is. From cooking in the kitchen to sitting on both back and front porches listening to the birds in the morning we just loved the house. The walk to the beach is short and the beach was quiet and perfect for a little family. Crab hunting at night is a must. We also tagged our new “home place” at the Indian Pass Raw Bar. We will be back!
Nice area, for golf cart. House was clean other than the dishes which renters are responsible for to wash and put away before leaving. Evidentially those before us only rinsed and put away dirty so we had to wash anything we used in advance. Which we prob would have done anyway. We had a wonderful time making memories with family.
My family and I stayed at the Jubilee Cottage in March, 2021. We could not have been happier with this property. It looked just like the pictures- and they are gorgeous. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly, the gulf waters only 30 paces away. Access to nearby Cape San Blas, Apalachicola, and St. George Island are a breeze from this location. Don't tell anybody about this place, it should be our secret. It's a wonderful VRBO property
This historic home has been relocated and beautifully restored in the neighborhood section of Indian Pass. The beach here was quite and we had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the beach. We paddle boarded, kayaked, fished, shell hunted, and saw evidence of turtles hatching. What a great weekend!
