She was the sweetest lady ever, helped us with everything and even left us a cute gift. She made our trip enjoyable after the plans were completely messed up.

Hi Mark, The washer and dryer were available ~ no one asked for the access information.
No one contacted us about damp towels?? or food in the fridge?? I have fired the cleaners ~ we should have been called immediately.
We have tons of towels so don't know what happened here!
No special events are allowed without advance permission and details. We were not informed about any special events such as your bachelor party or additional guests on the property without permission.
Neighbours were disturbed but unfortunately we did not hear about it until after you checked out.
Trash was left all over the property ~ inside the cottage, on the decking, in and by the pool and all over the yard. We do not allow any smoking inside the cottage or outside and there were butts and ash all over the decking, by the pool as well as butts in containers, in the yard, all over the place.

About the host
Hosted by Stormy & Puff
We relocated to Jacksonville from out west in 1985 and love, love, LOVE it here. This is truly Paradise and we love sharing it with others.
Why they chose this property
A little bit country in the midst of the city, this is a peaceful beautiful property overlooking the creek and marsh. Not fancy but very relaxing ~ riding through the neighbourhood is completely different that what is experienced once passing through the property gates and entering Dream Catcher Lane!
