    Large house
    We stayed here for two weeks while moving across country and waiting for our new home to be completed. It’s a nice big space. We had the upstairs. There were renters in the basement unit too who were very nice (but a surprise as we didn’t know someone was living in the basement when we rented the house). We were working from home while we were there and had plenty of space and more than one choice of where to set up our work stations. Our dog loved the front yard (unfenced). While we could have used the fenced backyard for him, the people downstairs used it too. Not a problem and they were very nice but we thought we’d have the entire yard, front and back, to ourselves. There are kayaks to use for the creek. We did not use them but the people downstairs used them often. Great quiet neighborhood. We walked our dog early in the morning and after dark and felt extremely safe any time. Tim was great. Very responsive. Showed up at the property a couple of times but never bothered us. He would take garbage cans out and came over to make sure wewere hurricane Ian ready (never bothered us but he had helpful tips). We would definitely stay again if we needed a place in Jacksonville.

    We had a good time tucked away in Jacksonville. The location was within a short drive of everything we wanted to do. The owner reacted quickly to my SOS, when I locked us all out of the house. The neighborhood is very quiet. Good experience for us.

    Easy place to stay
    Quiet neighborhood. Great driveway for multiple cars. Plenty of towels and extra sheets. Appreciated the two laundry baskets and large drying rack. The basement sofa bed was uncomfortable, but we had brought a foam mat, and that made it okay. Tim took care of things right away when we let him know the wifi wasn’t working. Thanks, Tim!

    Complete relaxation? Ty Tim for allowing us to enjoy your home!
    Loved the stay. Tim was very professional, thoughtful, great customer service, Even the neighbor was very helpful with the kids while they were fishing by giving tips, type of bait, the best time to fish, so they wouldn't get bored and actually enjoy the experience! Very grateful and would definitely recommend this location to friends and family. My wife and I have stayed at several of these locations and this just became my 2nd favorite!

    We had a great stay here. The house is in a fantastic location that is convenient to many things, or you can sit back and relax in the back yard on your own private dock. The owner made sure we had his contact information and made it clear he was availble should we need anything. We look forward to coming back, thanks!

    Excellent Stay
    Our short, weekend stay was absolutely perfect. We wanted to do a special zoo trip with the kids and it couldn’t have been better. We were only 20 minutes away from that and 50 minutes from St. Augustine which we decided to do on Sunday. The kayaks and outdoor fire pit were enjoyed by all. We definitely will be back.
