About David & Debbie Griswold

About David & Debbie Griswold Our family reside approximately 1 hour from Port St. Joe (PSJ) and we consider this area our home away from home. Our family has been going to Port St. Joe since 2004 and have delighted in watching our children grow up and thoroughly enjoy themselves while on mini vacations. With Port St. Joe being so close our family tries to visit at least 3 times a month and spend long weekends in the area. We have found the area to be very quite and peaceful. This gives us time to relax after working hard during the week. We will take our boat out and fish as much as we can and enjoy the peacefulness of St. Joe Bay and the surrounding area. Why David & Debbie Griswold chose Port St. Joe We purchased and renovated this house because it was in a great location to the amenities of PSJ and to give other families the opportunity to experience the fond memories our family has been able to experience in PSJ. Our family has done what most others do and rent a place to have a peaceful getaway. When we realized we loved the area and its unique charm, we decided it was time to start planting roots and giving the same opportunity to others like we have experienced. After you have visited for the first time you will understand why we fell in love with this area.
