The original 'Gufenauf' name was for our boat, symbolizing our intentions -to goof off! We learned to do it so well, we extended the name to our house and invite you to enjoy your own goofin' off experience.

This Gulf Front home is located at Indian Pass in the heart of 'Florida's Forgotten Coast'. Indian Pass is one of the last beaches which still allows campfires for wiener-roasts and s'mores. Because of the unique land/water interplay, the sky creates a planetarium affect, producing sunrises, sunsets and night skies that have to be seen to be believed.

Bring your boat, the driveway is accommodating and the public boat ramp leading to some of Florida's best fishing is only 3/4 mile east; but if you don't find our hidden grouper holes, just drive one mile west to the renowned Indian Pass Raw Bar, home to Apalachicola's finest oysters and seafood. Snorkeling and scalloping is available in St. Joe Bay, only a few miles further West. One-quarter mile from the boat ramp lies St. Vincent Island, a 12,358 acre uninhabited national wildlife refuge (a shuttle is available). Also within minutes is St. Joseph Peninsula State Park - A 2500 acre Park voted the top beach in America in 2002 and is constantly in the top 10!

No boat Book your own diving or fishing charter with one of the many captains or just sit on the balcony, sipping your favorite beverage and watch the shrimp boats passing the 'Gufenauf' on their way to deep waters.

Whether it’s fishing, crabbing, diving or metal detecting for the legendary pirates' treasure buried at Money Bayou, we hope you enjoy the magic of 'Gufenauf'!

    The house was just as described, everything you need is there. Location is great just walk across a quiet side street and short path and your on the beach less than 5 minutes. Love Indian Pass quiet and friendly. Pets are always welcome.

    This house was just truly amazing. Close to the beach, restaurants and stores. My boys had a blast on the beach and my husband was up bright and early to go fishing. We rented a golf cart for the week which helped with getting everything to the beach. My only suggestion would be to update the photos that you have posted. The view from the house towards the beach has changed a bit with the area building new houses. Its a wonderful house and area would definitely stay again.

    My family and I had an amazing stay at The Gufenauf! It was very clean and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for cooking. The owner is very nice and responded immediately to all our needs. Only a 2 minute walk to the beach where we had bonfires and my son caught his first shark! This was definitely a trip we will never forget and we will definitely be staying here again!

    We have the Gufenauf and its warm, responsive host to thank for one of the most memorable vacations we’ve had in a very long time. Getting away was a much-needed break, as it is for many people. So being invited to stay in a well-loved home with everything we needed, and set in a laid-back neighborhood with friendly, happy people, made us feel immediately comfortable and welcome. And,the amazing beach…it’s steps away, dog friendly, and the sunrises will knock you out. All we know is, with any luck, we’ll be back! Thank you, Brenda and Gufenauf!

    Gufanauf was clean and comfortable with ocean views indoors and out. A two minute walk landed us at one of the nicest beaches on the gulf. The a/c and all the amenities worked great. Communication with Ralph and Brenda was easy, and the check-in/out process was a breeze. My family had a great time!

    We have vacationed many times at Indian Pass. The location is a short walk to the beach. The neighborhood is very quiet and the host treats you like family.
