This home is beautiful, the cottage also beautiful and both were well supplied, comfortable, well furnished. A couple issues, one the hostess of our home was not quick to respond/communicate, there were multiple TV’s in both locations but no instructions on use especially when there are two remotes so we didn’t have use of them, no checkout instructions and when we inquired with our hostess we got no response therefore did what we want done in our homes. The property is beautiful, lots of porches with comfortable furnishings in all areas. One other item, sleeping really is for 8 adults and 6 children as the bunks are very small and stacked with 3 which is pretty high for kids trying to get into and out of bed. Overall, recommend this home….more positives and just minor negatives that easily be dealt with.

$20 extra guest fee for more than 2 people and names required
This property is advertised to sleep 14, and it can, but be aware of the $20 "extra guest" fee if you have 3 or more people in your party. Not sure why a property that can sleep 14 considers any number under the listed capacity an "extra guest" but this one does. Age of the guest does not matter either as our 11 month old was considered in this count. I understand this fee is stated in the listing but it's still, in my mind, a little deceptive considering "extra guest" typically means a guest above the capacity of the home. When asked about it host said it had to do with their profit margins. Also listing claims to be a "restricted community" but it's just the house with open access to the road. Listing states vehicle tag number and names of all guests, even minors, are required to be disclosed. Never seen this in any other property I've stayed at but host is serious about it and did not provide entry code until I relented despite me saying I was not comfortable providing names of minor children. All seemed very unnecessary to me. House itself is as advertised. No complaints about the property.

Dim lighting especially on stairs as I fell down the steps twice, just sore. TV in upstairs bedroom didn’t work. No A!C on one bedroom. No safety bars in bathroom or mat in bottom of tubs to prevent falls. My wife and I are 74 and luckily neither of us were hurt, but others will be unless these issues aren’t addressed!!! Otherwise, a very nice house.

Very pretty historic home.
Beautiful old trees. Home was pretty. Neighboring garage apartment had noisy children up early, but understandable children are happy on vacation! The train horns close by was annoying during the night and early morning. The owner was very nice, helpful and communication was excellent!

Needs some upkeep. Pictures make it look a lot bigger than it is. Owner was very responsive to the main problem we had. Master bath is thru the bunk room, not off the master bedroom. Queen bedroom bath is very small.

Buddy golf trip
6 buddies in our 60’s going to FL for 5 days to get away from winter weather in NJ. Location was great, 30 minutes from Jacksonville airport and less than 30 minutes to the courses we booked. Area restaurants were also very good. House was as advertised, old plantation home, 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. House was clean and updated in several areas - layout was a bit quirky but not unusual given the age of the home. Great outdoor space to unwind after playing golf. Highly recommend to a family or group of friends.

Amazing Property!
We had an amazing stay at the Plantation House! First, the place was very clean. Also, the property had so many different places to sit and gather without feeling completely disconnected. Our family of 11 was able to gather and have dinner together, reconnect around some board games, and at night we lit a fire and had s'mores! The location was perfect as well - we were close to everything but still had that country feel. I highly recommend the property!

Not for us
We stayed there as a family of 7 and these are the facts of our stay. The first morning there was a roach on the kitchen counter. We had to sanitize the dishwasher three times to rid it of the pungent terrible smell before using it. This property is an office with bedrooms. We, as a family agreed, that we would not stay here again. We reached out to the owner on the first night via text message and phone call with no acknowledgement. When we reached her voicemail and we’re unable to leave a message because her mailbox was full.
