This home was perfect for my family of 5, with space for more. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. Everything you would need during your visit is available or can be found at nearby stores and restaurants. I will stay here whenever I'm in the area.

Hi, Not sure why I received a 4 star . Must not have been that bad.You stayed 3 hours past check out until 1pm then finally I had to ask you all to leave the house. VRBO got involved at some point as well trying to call you to ask you to leave.Which was very awkward for me because usually people follow the rules I didn't review you because I would have given you a 3 star for that. I had other guests coming and it threw my cleaners way off being you were supposed to check out at 10am.. But leaving 3 hours after your supposed to is unacceptable. I do realize this is public post, so I am sorry to everyone else had to get notice of this issue.

Very cute property! We came to visit our son at NAS Jax, and we had plenty of space for the 6 members of our family. The kitchen has very basic amenities, and it would have been nice to have a baking sheet and toaster. The TV in the living room was a little complicated, and instructions would have been handy. We reached out to the host for the WiFi password, and she responded quickly, but it would have been nice to have that information provided on check-in.If you need a great little place to stay in Jacksonville, I would absolutely recommend this location.

We went for a girls weekend get away. The house was perfect for us. We mainly hung out in the living area. The TV was great for movie night. The bedrooms were nice size, the neighborhood was kid friendly but quiet. The hostess, Jessica, was readily available for my questions or concerns, which weren’t many. I would definitely recommend.

Great place

This is a great little house that can hold many people. It has very recently been updated and very clean. They also allow pets, which is very helpful. There is a cute little neighborhood to walk your dog or just go for a stroll. The neighbors were friendly and we saw many other people walking their dogs as well. I would recommend it.

We were in town for family members wedding. So there were multiple locations of different events. This property was a good location because it was central. Very Close to downtown and close to Airport. Bit of a drive to the beach.

Cute property!

This rental was great for our one night stay before a cruise! The immediate neighborhood is adorable and is close to several eateries, and I felt comfortable staying there with my group. The house itself is an older one and has some quirks that come with the charm of older homes. The property owner is working on those things, but they aren’t things that affected our stay! She was communicative about them ahead of time, so we knew what to expect. The only “issues” we had were the grass was a bit high in the backyard, and you have to access the backyard via the front yard (there’s no door from the house to the back), so we didn’t end up relaxing outside like we thought we would. We would definitely stay here again, and appreciated the clear communication from the owner!
