Lovely and comfortable home!

We rented the house for a week while a family member was being treated at Mayo. During a long week, it was wonderful to have such a nice, quiet, and comfortable place to come back to every night. The house was beautifully clean and well-eqipped, and the owners were kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

St John

It was my first time using the app so I was a little skeptical. The property was like described on the app. Clean and pretty close to where I needed to be. I was in Florida for a family get together. The property owners were nice and I had no issues, check in was easy. Overall I would stay again if needed.

Dirty

The property is dirty. I found a ball of blonde hair in the master bathroom as well as blood on the outside of the shower. There were roaches alive and dead - (that did not look like palmetto bugs - which btw are roaches) - and when I went to unplug my cell phone to leave I found a whole acrylic nail on the floor. I’m black and I don’t wear acrylic nails so not mine or my family’s. Had the place been clean it would have been a great stay. The neighborhood was nice and it’s not too far from Jacksonville.

Jacksonville family home

My 2 little dogs enjoyed the fenced yard. A friend and I relaxed in the family style home . We enjoyed the 45 minute trips to St Augustine, beaches and old town. The location was convenient to restaurants, grocery stores, shops and museums. Nice older home with some wear. We were retirees and had no problem with the sunken living room and liked the attached garage and suburban neighborhood.

Sunken living room

The 2 other members of the party had mobility concerns and the sunken living room was a nightmare. The master bedroom shower had grass bits in it and had me wonder if it had been cleaned. The stationary shower head is always a drag. The cups were very small and the dishes in particular were scarce. It was more down scale then I have rented in CA

Comfortable home in convenient location

Comfortable home tucked in a quiet neighborhood where we stayed 17 nights while renovations were done to our home. Communication with host was excellent. Convenient to restaurants and shopping with a Fresh Market 2 minutes away. Was a great value!

Spring Break 2023

We felt this was a clean, no nonsense home. The price was fair for being in a quiet neighborhood. We chose the location to be near relatives. The bed linens and towels and carpeting have seen better days and there is a very awkward step down and step up to go into the bedroom hallway that would be difficult to navigate for anyone w/ mobility challenges. Over all it was comfortable for what we needed.

Great Communication, Lacks Cleanliness

The owners were wonderful accommodating us and reaching out with information. However, the carpet was very dirty and had a strong smell. I felt very uncomfortable having my baby crawl on the floor there, which was hard for the price we had to pay. The pictures made it seem a lot more updated than it actually is, so we were a little disappointed.

Just what I needed

My dogs and a few family members and I stayed here while I competed an international dog agility trial in Jacksonville, and the Blue Heron provided a quiet, comfortable and convenient home base. I felt very safe and secure in the neighborhood, which was nice for leash walks. My sister in law had many work conferences and the internet connection was very good. Communications with the hosts were outstanding. We loved being within walking distance of the Julington Creek Fish Camp! Highly recommended.

Perfect for Us

We needed a VRBO as my kids are doing virtual school and our home was going through noisy renovations. I found this VRBO in our area. The management was very responsive to our needs. The house itself was very clean and just as advertised. We did not take advantage of it the way we would if we were "tourists" but for us it was perfect. Quiet nice neighborhood as well.
