Beautiful house on the river
We came up from Tampa to look at colleges. This house was a beautiful home base for our stay. The river views are incredible and my kids had fun trying to catch fish. CR 13 is a quiet road and I enjoyed my morning run on it. Come here for a quiet retreat, knowing St Augustine is a quick drive away!

Perfection!!
No need to look elsewhere, this place is amazing! This beautiful property is just as described in the listing. Even more beautiful than shown in the pictures! Everything was immaculately clean and the house and property were just what we needed in order to get away and relax. The home is very well stocked and has everything you need. My daughter loved the gym which was an extra bonus! During our time, we were able to fish off the dock, plus build a fire and have s'mores. These moments made our time here extra special! Tiana was a great host and was very responsive with any questions we had! We definitely recommend this property and if we are in the area, hope to stay here again!

Let me start by saying that Tiana was an amazing host, she made sure we have everything and beyond to make sure we had a great trip. The house was better than the pictures do justice, extremely clean and well stocked with everything you would want. The sunsets are beyond amazing and great fishing off the dock. We hope to come back again in the near future!

My family and I went away for a quick weekend trip. We live about 3 hours away on the opposite coast. This house did not disappoint. It was everything we needed for a restful birthday weekend. It was a rainy weekend but the house was so cozy and the views were tremendous. House was well stocked. Beds were fairly comfy and the house was very clean. It was nice to have such a clean , peaceful , dog friendly AND kid friendly home!!! Thank you 😊

It’s beautiful. Very clean & organized. Everything u possibly need is there. 4 days were not enough to really enjoy the place. Our dog enjoyed his freedom as it is fenced in. ( However the sneaky one, did find a place to get out to chase a squirrel or something 😊). The sunsets r simply gorgeous. I liked it because it’s a little distance away from all the hustle & bustle of St. Augustine. Would absolutely love to go back someday soon. Tiana is extremely responsive to queries. Had a great stay.
