Perfect little getaway
We live inland away from the beach here in Florida and like to rent near the coast as a staycation. This place is very close to the beach and has an eclectic atmosphere. I LOVED it! If I had a “save” button, I’d add this rental home to my favorites list. Thank you!

Everything you need in this cute cottage
Wish we had more time at this cottage, the host has such an interesting place, lamps, wall art, light switches, soft sheets,adorable bedspread, soft toilet paper:) so much more catches your eye. The patio is lovely to have a morning coffee and was fenced in so the dogs could sit with us.The beach is about a minute walk and goes on for ever. Dogs are allowed, yet it was so clean. Martie is a sweetheart to deal with and quick to reply to any questions. If we are in the area again we would love to stay here again.A+ Host

Another great stay at the Crescent Moon
This was our third stay at this property. Martie has thought of everything to make your stay here comfortable. The cottage is incredibly clean and cozy. The kids loved the new sleeper couches in the living room. We didn’t bring the pup for this trip but we love that she’s welcome here. The location absolutely can’t be beat. It’s a quick 2-minute walk to the beach, the neighborhood is quiet but friendly, and all the St. Augustine must-sees are less than a 20 minute drive. Thanks for another great stay. We’ll be back soon!

As always, we had a great time. We are very happy that everything was clean and stocked as stated. The furbabies enjoy themselves as well walking on the beach. Weather was typical Fl weather.

Located in a quiet, low traffic neighborhood a football field or so from the beach. Wonderful front sitting area. Another great and more private sitting area on the side near the grilling area.

Perfect for Us
We rented this property for a 3 night stay, and we were not disappointed. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. Getting to the beach was easy and was close enough to hear waves. The furnishings and linens were comfortable. It was refreshing to see a plentiful supply of towels, toilet tissue, and kitchen supplies. We had two small dogs with us and there’s not really a yard for them; so we would just walk them a short way for potty breaks. The cottage provided intimate comfort and was close to everything we wanted to see. We’ll be back!

Absolutely Fabulous!!
This eclectic cottage is adorable and cozy, private and in the BEST beach location we've found to date on Anastasia Island. Marti sets your expectations well, with everything you need to know before arriving. Check-in was seamless. Love the Butler Beach neighborhood.... Sooooooo close to the beach, with many good dining options close by... A standout is the Elk House Eatery, it looks odd from the outside but this couple creates amazing scratch dining in a nice atmosphere at reasonable prices... so much more to enjoy in Butler/Crescent/St. Augustine Beaches, all within a few short miles, no crowds or high rises, you'll just have to come! What a wonderful time we had -Highly recommend The Crescent Moon and it's owner Marti. FIVE STAR!

This was our second stay at the Crescent Moon and it was just as perfect as we remembered. We love the coziness of the cottage for our family of four plus the pup. The place is very clean and Martie has thought of everything you might need for your stay. The location can’t be beat… just a two minute walk from a pristine beach with soft sand and great waves (and dog-friendly!). Love the quiet neighborhood. Downtown St. Augustine is an easy drive, 20ish minutes. Thanks for another great family vacation! We’ll be back!
