Welcome to Scallop Cove #3 (Phish Headz), a charming and cozy bayfront villa nestled along the sparkling waters of St. Joseph's Bay. This two-bedroom retreat offers the perfect blend of tranquility and adventure with each bedroom featuring a queen bed for restful nights. Take a step outside to the spacious deck complete with a picnic table for casual dining, or relax in the screened-in porch, perfect for soaking in the fresh sea breeze.  Features a well stocked kitchen and high speed WiFi to keep you connected.
 
A private fishing pier sits just steps from the cottage, offering a front-row seat to the breathtaking sunrises over the bay and sunsets on the Gulf. You can anchor your boat just off the pier in the shallow protected waters near Pig Island, making this an ideal spot for boaters and anglers. ***Pier not permitted for mooring*** For beach lovers, a dedicated boardwalk directly across the street leads you to the pristine sands of Cape San Blas (3-5 min walk).
 
Parking for two vehicles is available.
 
Conveniently located behind the best bait and tackle shop on the Cape, you'll have insiders access to local fishing tips, and the freshest bait. Next door, a well-stocked grocery store and gas station ensure you'll never run out of supplies. Kayaks and canoes are available for rent, letting you explore the bay's beauty up close.
 
Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and St. Joseph's Bay, Cape San Blas is a natural paradise, surrounded by miles of pristine beaches, emerald green waters, and protected wildlife habitats. It's common to spot deer, foxes, eagles, ospreys, sea turtles, and even the occasional black bear. Just minutes away, St. Joseph Peninsula State Park offers 2,500 acres of unspoiled beauty within 10 miles of untouched beach and bay shorelines, plus a convenient boat tramp.
 
Scallop Cove #3 (Phish Headz) is the ultimate getaway for nature lovers and anglers, offering everything you need for an unforgettable Cape San Blas vacation.

Thank you for the stay,This is our second year. It was a great week even thou we had a little weather. We fished, explored the Park, and played on the beach. Local restaurants came highly recommended and did not disappoint. The cottage has a beachy motif, its perfect, plenty of room, quiet and clean. The dock makes it convenient to launch our yaks, Thanks again.jeff & kris - (Apr 2025 - VRBO)

Great location very clean, cozy. Across the street from the beach - (Apr 2025 - VRBO)


*****

I enjoyed my time at Phish Heads cottage. Having neighbors in the nearby cottages was just the right amount of social interaction; yet, the scenery and nature were the highlights. So nice to jump between bay fishing and beach fishing in a short walk. Not biting? Just walk over to the other side of the peninsula. Cottage was clean and bed comfortable. Kitchen could use some more utensils. It was nice to find a second key indoors, clearly labeled as an additional key. I think I'll be returning to Scallop Cove Villas. - (Mar 2025 - AirBnB)

Great location! Easy access to bay for fishing and paddle boarding. Also beach access across the street. Being so close to the convenience store and bait shop was a plus for quick resupply runs. Also right on the paved path for runs and bikes. Lots of outdoor opportunities nearby. House was comfortable and good climate control. Satisfied all our needs. - (Mar 2025 - AirBnB)


*****

For us it was just about a perfect place. The bay view, the quick and easy access to the beach, all it needed was a reading lamp in the bedroom. ( But maybe we're the last of the readers?? ) So, we bought a little lamp at Dollar General and then we could read the one paragraph that apparently we need to read before we fall asleep with an open book and glasses on! - (Mar 2025 - AirBnB)

A beautiful sunrise and plenty of local convenience. Bay on one side, ocean on the other. Very unique and super dog friendly. - (Dec 2024 - VRBO)

Nice easy convenient everything you need is right there - (Aug 2024 - VRBO)


*****

We stayed at the property so we would be convenient to our daughter and family who were staying in a RV a couple of miles away. We had the granddaughters over one night and enjoyed our stay. We certainly supported the Scallop Cove Market often. That made our stay very easy. We will stay again I'm sure. - (Jul 2024 - VRBO)

This little house was perfect for our family! It was very clean and great location! Beach was a short walk for our family. There is a convenient store next to us that provided a great breakfast and wine slushies! We will be back for sure! - (Jul 2024 - VRBO)

*****

We very much enjoyed our stay! - (Apr 2024 - Returnee)


*****

We had a great stay. Location is unbeatable. You cape side view of water with a fishing pier. Walk about 100 yards the other way for sunset ocean views and use of beach. within 1 minute is a convenience store with hot food and a bait tackle shop and shop to rent beach equipment. Unit itself is exactly as described. Was very clean and we enjoyed the screened in deck and porch areas a lot. Recommend if you don't need much room (we had 2 and it was great. Would work for 3/4 but tighter) - (Apr 2024 - VRBO)


*****

We loved the fact that the beach was just across the road! - (Jan 2024 - VRBO)

We had a great time & will certainly be back!! - (Oct 2023 - Aqua)
