The islands have been referred to as "The North Florida Keys" and "Jacksonville's Best Kept Secret" \- Located 1 mile from Palm's Fish Camp +boat ramp \- 4 miles away from Ferry crossing (Ferry takes passengers and automobiles from Heckscher Drive to Mayport Village and the Beaches) -Close to several State and City Parks (Talbot Island State Parks, Fort George Island State Park, Kingsley Park, Hanna Park, Hugenot Park) \- 18 miles to the Omni Amelia Island Resort \- 17 miles to downtown Jacksonville and the TIAA Bank Field (NFL) \- 17 miles to the St Johns Town Center (Jacksonville’s upscale open air mall) \- 20 miles via the ferry to Sawgrass (PGA) \-15 mins to Publix and shopping centers \-15 mins to restaurants with an exception of 3 that are very nearby. \-Attention fisherman: You can’t get any closer to the ocean! There are lots of tournaments and you are minutes away from the Atlantic Ocean. (Boat lift is not for guest use) House is located on a main shipping channel which makes the tides go up and down by 6-9 feet which means you cannot tie up a boat to the dock. If you are bringing a boat we recommend putting in/put at local ramp and just enjoying the dock for sitting on, hanging out, fishing etc.. please mention if you are bringing a boat when booking so we can go over everything. House is full of information on all parks+resturants+things to do! There is a non refundable $400 pet fee. Outdoor fire pit and fireplace are not available for guest use. They do not work. \*\*Due to local city mandates there are no more than 10 people allowed.\*\* \*\* NO HOUSE PARTIES, NO UNAUTHORIZED GUESTS. QUIET HOURS: ALL DAY. There is never a time that music can be turned up, people yelling/celebrating. Our neighbors are very close by and respecting them is our number one priority. If rules are broken/ neighbors report, guests will be asked to leave immediately, and your payment will be forfeited. This is absolutely not the place for any social gatherings. This property is located in a very quiet neighborhood with neighbors close by.

Meghan was great to answer any questions promptly and the welcome gift was a nice touch. Only complaint is the house is much older than the photos from the advertisement listing and the there was very little water pressure in the bathrooms. This became very difficult at night when everyone needed a shower before going to bed. The home defiantly needs some updating... ##### James H.

The pictures, as good as they are, don't do this property justice! It was beautiful, spacious, spotlessly clean, with lots of thoughtful snacks for us! Maghen could not have been more helpful or communicative! You owe it to yourself to stay in this glorious home. This is a fantastic five star accommodation. We are already planning our return next year! ##### Brett H.

Attention to details! Beautifully decorated for Christmas! Our first experience with a home in Palm Desert had left a very very bad impression for VRBO. We were going to try it one more time before abandoning VRBO but this home impressed us. ##### Kimberly M. Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brett H., Overland Park 17 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This home will exceed all your expectations, and so will its owner! This was our second time staying at this home, and it was even better than the first! Maghen goes out of her way to make sure you have a superior experience. There are instructions for everything, snacks of every stripe, and even a spectacular cheese and fresh fruit board when we arrived. The house is freshly renovated, spotlessly clean, and wonderful! Maghen contacted us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. You just can't do any better than staying here! ##### Brett H.

When we were looking for a vacation rental, we wanted to find a place that had a lot of amenities in case the weather didn’t cooperate. This house fit that in spades. The weather, though, was amazing and yet we loved just hanging out by the pool and spa the best. House was spotlessly clean and beds were so comfy. Great communication with host as well. There was a nice beach 10 min away and Amelia Island was also very close. And the location was quiet and low key. We had such a relaxing trip! ##### Sun P.
