This home is adorable and the outside area is perfect although it was too cold the weekend we were there to enjoy it and have a fire in the fire pit. Although you do have to drive into town, it’s definitely not walking distance.

Quiet
The visit was quiet. The beds were comfortable. Only one area that was noticible in the living room there were droppings, the front door lock needs to be reprogrammed. Everything else was fine.

Fun and comfortable weekend stay.
The house location is super close to the main Hwy we’re lots of restaurants, CVS, Walmart are. Adorable house. Was perfect for us 3 adults. It’s decorated very pretty. The kitchen area is very large. Beds were very comfortable. Only complain we had was the 2 wicker chairs in living room, the sitting area springs are shot, so when you sit you sink in and it’s extremely hard to get out of the chairs. Both of them. Other than that we absolutely loved this house. 10 thumbs up!

St Augustine
The house was very cute older style in a nice established neighborhood. The mattress are worn to the point they need replaced. Limited linens available. Stained towels and bed sheets the most minimal kitchen utensils. The washer didn't work. Notified the owner she suggested that a light load. The water would run in but didn't agitate. But the worst was 2 family members died f I'm a tornado and I asked to cancel under the circumstances. But the owner asked for proof of death certificate..I own 2 vacation homes and would never ask of such a thing. Our family situation was all over the national news. We only stayed over night since we arrived late. Went to local hotel for the rest of our stay. VERY disappointed. St Augustine was amazing though.

Girls mini vacay
The front door keypad was a little tricky but nothing to get upset about. The house is super cute but old, so it creeks, as you would expect. Rooms are nice size, and the bed were ok. Not complaining about that, just they weren't my bed lol. Neighborhood seemed nice but I was a little nervous about the bar on the corner. No worries cause there were no problems, just wasn't expecting it. Overall loved this little place. Will use again!
