Short Stay last minute

We enjoyed our short stay last minute with family due to the recent storms. We enjoyed the pool and two separate living rooms. The beds were very comfortable and the house had all the accommodations we needed. Our only real issue was that the grill did not work well.

Peaceful

The cozy home and cool backyard gave us an opportunity to cool off and relax poolside.. we enjoyed it every day & in the morning I would get a book and read with my coffee poolside! It was so relaxing! The location was central to everyone & everything we wanted to do. The owners were so kind when I reached out & we will be back!

Labor Day in Orange Park

Beautiful home and very clean. Lovely pool/patio area. The downside was the pool was green when we arrived and we lost a day of swimming. The upside was the management company got the pool service out right away - unfortunately we had to give the chemicals 24 hours to work

Wonderful home just needs a little tlc

Beautiful home and area. Comfortable beds in two of the 3 rooms. We had a few lighting and outlet issues in the master. No hot water coming out of the master bath sinks. The shower in the bath was fine. Biggest issue was the threshold going from the master to the master bath had carpet tacks exposed. Did not notice it until my son stepped on it. I had to put one of the bathroom carpet mats for the remainder of our stay.

Some steps unavoidable

We had one handicap person in our group. It felt like every room had a couple of steps to get from one place to another. The entire layout of the floorplan was weird. The two bedrooms upstairs had one bath and slanted ceilings. The upstirs temperature was uneven. Downstairs there was one bedroom with two full baths. The beds were so-so matresses. Everything was sparkling clean. The out door pool was amazing. as was the back yard. Our family had intended to go to the beach but the backyard pool was so wonderful we just stayed there.

Charming retro cottage vibe

My husband, sister and brother had a positive experience spending a weekend here (in town for father's b-day). This mature property was as advertised and and reminded us of our childhood. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others. The appliances are new, the pool is lovely with a full privacy fence around the lot. There are plenty of mature trees. We saw an owl and humming birds in the backyard. The house was close to everything we needed and located within a nice neighborhood. Toiletries and plenty of towels were provided. There were floats for the pool and bicycles (we did not use these as it was too cool, but a nice touch for warmer weather). Everyone agreed we were glad glad to be staying in this home vs. a local hotel. Some of the rooms were larger than expected. The space was great for visiting and catching up with one another in a cozy atmosphere.

Lovely Neighborhood

The booking and check-in process was seamless, which made our arrival smooth and hassle-free. However, the yard needed much attention—it was in such bad shape that I actually went out to purchase a rake. Fortunately, the yard service arrived while I was away, and the yard saw a major improvement. Despite this, the home still stood out due to curb appeal not looking as good as the surrounding neighbors. Other issues were: (1) The grill was dirty and non-functional, (2) there were stains on the primary bedroom carpet, (3) the sofa had holes and felt unclean. While the home is old, it had a certain charm, quaint and characterful. Unfortunately, it had an old home smell that was quite noticeable. Please note, it was not bad but again, it was prominent. Overall, a mixed experience. However, I would definitely recommend staying providing the issues outlined in (1), (2) and (3) are addressed. Thanks for allowing me to stay in your home.

Birdwood

The property was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room to relax, sleep, and play. The only suggestions I would make are 1)small holes at bottom of fence need to be filled so dogs don’t get out and 2) definitely could use more towels throughout. These are just suggestions and would not deter us from staying there again.

Good house, great pool, nice neighborhood!

The house is as shown in the pictures. Very nice, quiet neighborhood. The pool was great except way colder than we are used to. The front and back doors were hard to use. Lots of room to stretch out with the grandsons. It is dated but very unique. Close to anything and everything. We would definitely stay there again. The train being close is a non-issue. It’s pretty quiet and the boys loved seeing it.

Awesome Beach Home to Book for Vacation!!!

Myself, and my husband and our two young daughters and our teenager and our adult son and there grandma and my small yorkie furr baby stayed here for our yearly beach vacation!!! I looked at A lot of places for my big family to stay and one that would accommodate my furr doggy and one with a pool for my kids!! I looked a lot trying to find a place but money was the problem with most places are the places that had a pool we would have to share and could only swim till a certain time. I found this home and it had everything I was looking for for my myself and my family!! My kids Beyond loved the pool and all my family had plenty of space to stay in the home!! Also the master bedroom had the most comfortable bed I have actually ever had on vacation and that’s 8yrs of us staying at beach places with hard beds! The only thing I can say that I didn’t like was that the beach was about 30 minutes are so away, but we can’t have everything we want! My kids grandma wish her room would have had a tv cause my kids mostly used the living room tv and the den tv! We used ours in the master but not many channels to real choose from on it! When we got here there was barely any propane so I payed 30 bucks for a Néw propane tank and we used it a few times. Again this home was a great place just no beach within walking distance roughly 30 minutes are more depending on traffic to Jacksonville beach is the closest. I would love for my family to stay here again if we save enough money next yr!
