Great Location and Perfect for Small Family

The place was great. Super clean and well equipped. It was about 100 yards from the beach so it made it easy to go back and forth throughout the day. It was a perfect size for our family of three and our two labs.

Glad you found the perfect fit for your family at our charming beach home on the north end of Amelia Island! This part of the island is really a hidden treasure since it is so close to Main Beach, Fort Clinch and historic downtown Fernandina Beach, and of course, just a block from the beach!

We had a great time. The beach was a very short walk and we had a view from our deck. Restaurants also within walking distance. Dog friendly and so is the beach. Bike path is also close by.

8/10 Good

Decent place. Nice ocean view

Decent cottage near the beach with a nice ocean view. Only problem is the master bedroom mattress is a chiropractic nightmare. Other than that we liked the cottage.
Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2018
Response from VrboOwner on 23 March 2020
Thank you for taking the time to review you stay. We are pleased to hear you were happy with the property. We will pass along the feedback on the mattress to the owner. Mattresses can be difficult because each person has preference on firmness or softness so we try to find something close to the middle. We hope you will keep us in mind when planning your next trip to Amelia Island.
