We had a wonderful stay at this vacation rental on the St. John’s River in Astor, Florida! The location was perfect and made it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer. The house was very clean, comfortable, and accommodating for our group of six.We especially enjoyed spending time on the screened-in back porch — it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the view. The convenience of having a boat dock right at the property was also a huge bonus for us.Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!
