Perfect place for a St. Augustine getaway! The home was clean, cozy, and in an amazing location. Being able to walk to the beach and grab dinner from The Elkhouse Eatery just steps away was such a bonus — highly recommend stopping there!Quiet neighborhood, comfortable accommodations, and a great host. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

Property was amazing and very clean. The house was perfect with the pool, putt-putt and dock on the canal. There were several restaurants in walking distance or close by that were Great like The Elk House Eatery, Violas, The Back 40 A1A, and Caps on the water. The host was courteous and quick to respond., If bringing a pet there is a food and water bowl, a pen, and fence areas for them to go outside! The house was well stocked with many extras that made it perfect!
