This is one of the nicest VRBO experiences we have ever had--felt right at home in this gorgeous cottage and expansive family estate setting. We keep our pups on a leash, but they were kindly greeted by the owner's little dog (w/ a bright pink tail) and we LOVED staying here. We will be back as often as possible. Thank you!

Very nice house and area. Great for dogs. We will stay there again for sure
We had a very nice stay at the cottage . The host was very attentive and making sure we had everything we needed. Would stay again if we come back to the area.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was better than advertized. It was a great location and fit our needs perfectly. We would definitely rent again.
I was very happy with my stay at this property. The quality of the home was excellent. The amenities were wonderful as well. I would definitely stay here again.
Very impressed with all aspects of this stay. Great communication before, during and as we checked out. Beautiful property and honored to stay in a Cottage that had such a significant history, and memories for the host family.
This property is beautiful, comfortable, and clean. We enjoyed spending time inside and also outside on the patio. The owners were very pleasant and so easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay here again.
This was the first time using Vrbo. It was a wonderful stay, the home was great. The stay was very quite. The host was extremely nice. The home had everything we needed.
The home was just what we needed for a comfortable overnight stay. Cathy was great to work with & the check in/out process was a breeze. The pictures don't do the place justice as it's a really nice quiet respite from the "busy-ness" of everyday life... would definitely stay there again!

Thank you so much for nice comments. Hope you’ll choose us again in the future.
This is our go to rental whenever we are in town. It's private and quiet. The owners are always quick to respond if we need anything and the house just the right price and size.

About the host
Hosted by Cathy Goodson
Having spent our entire lives in Jacksonville, my husband and I celebrate 32 years of marriage with the joy of raising four wonderful grown children and cherish our adorable grandson. Our vibrant connection to the community is enriched by the diverse individuals we've met, thanks to the military base.
Embracing an active lifestyle, we find pleasure in engaging activities like pickleball, golf, and regular gym sessions. Our love for travel allows us to explore new horizons and meet fascinating people. Beyond our adventures, our hearts find fulfillment in the company of family and friends. Being active members of our local church adds a beautiful layer to the tapestry of our lives, creating a sense of belonging and shared values within our community.
