This is a beautiful place in a very cool historic district. We really enjoyed our stay. The house was extremely clean and well equipped and the beds were very comfortable and it has great water pressure Jose Cuervo lives next-door, which is kind of cool.

Easy access to the highways to get to the beach or other places in Jacksonville. Has plenty of kitchen utensils, dishes, and pots and pans. Love the coffee nook!

The home was beyond what we were expecting as were the host's. We rented the home until our home was completed in the same neighborhood. Only can say great things and for those who cook, the kitchen is well equipped. I cannot endorse this rental more or the owners.
Our Baby Klaus loved the home equally and felt welcomed.

The Porch House!!

The porch house was a wonderful place to stay. Not only was it immaculate, it was stocked with everything we needed. The Host were extremely accommodating and available if you needed them. I cannot think of a better place to stay, not just in Jacksonville, but all of Florida.

Jacksonville weekend

My family and I stayed at the Porch house for a weekend and it was awesome!! Michaela was a wonderful host and responded immediately. The house is so cute and in a cool neighborhood. It's comfortable, homey and has everything you need including an espresso maker. There are several restaurants in walking distance and it's very close to the stadium. We all loved the house and had fun in Jacksonville. We'd stay there again when we come back in town.

Wonderful stay

I’m a veteran of Vrbo and other short term rental properties and this is one of my favorites. The house is comfortable and very well stocked. I was a bit apprehensive about the neighborhood since it is older and near downtown and especially as I was alone most of the six weeks. The neighbors are great and there are a number of businesses including restaurants, post office and a bank in walking distance. The hosts are amazing and went above and beyond. I strongly recommend this historic Springfield porch home.

We arrived late and it was dark. Porch light was not on. There was really one good shower in the house. The other bathroom had claw tub and hand sprayer. The neighbors dogs barked one night for an hour and another night three different times during the night. It was clean. Kitchen was stocked with coffee bar and other commodities. Beds were comfortable. 4 star rating.

Thank you for your stay - we thrive to provide super clean , comfortable & safe space with historic charm. Some guests find the restored claw tub with custom hand held shower fixtures with option to bath interesting but we are definitely considering special ordering and replacing the handheld fixture with combo shower fixture to add more comfort for guests. We are glad you enjoyed coffee station and comfortable beds. We did inspect the porch lights that are solar as they are usually always on at night - they seem to be working. But we will be adding extra spot lights in the front of the house to ensure extra safety for our guests. Appreciate your feedback that helps us to continue improving.
