Beautiful home, we had a great vacation

The kids loved the pool and games. Grandpa loved the comfortable accommodation. Mom and dad loved the huge kitchen and master bedroom. It’s a good vacation when you wish it wasn’t over so fast. The owner was really good at communicating with us. I would stay here again in a heart beat.

Great Quiet Location + Awesome Yard for Dogs

We really loved our stay here, so much so that we added an extra night! The pool was awesome, there were so many little additions that make this place a winner, the lounge chairs, the coffee and snacks, full kitchen of whatever you need, you can tell the owner takes very good care of this home and has made many updates (shower heads, granite counter tops, remote fans, outdoor lighting and landscaping, comfy mattress, nice towels, great washer/dryer, large TVs in each room). The home is in a pretty "woodsy" area with some large properties but just a short drive to stores and downtown or the beaches. Our only issue was the A/C struggling in the late afternoons, but then again it was August, our hottest month, and it did cool down fine once the sun went down. Whether traveling with kids or dogs, I'd highly recommend considering this rental. It's spaced out - so if traveling with another couple or kids, it would work well. Both showers are spacious and great and the place was SUPER CLEAN upon arrival. We will be back again! Thank you Sara!

Great Space!

This home had great space inside and out. Plenty of room for our family of 5. Central location to everything we needed. Sara was easy to communicate with and gave us some great recommendations for places to eat.

About the host

Hosted by Sara Galloway

Like a dream came true, we relocated to St. Augustine in 2012 after falling in love from childhood. The beautiful beaches and historical sites keep us coming back for more - and we keep learning more about this beautiful town the longer we stick around! We both work in the communication fields as an American Sign Language professor and Speech-Language Pathologist and are excited to share our wonderful hometown with visitors!

Why they chose this property

This property is set on a half-acre lot and the house is very spacious with plenty of room for your family and friends! We love the atmosphere of the pool deck that leads into the entertainment room with a big sectional couch and 65 inch tv which leads into the game room with full-size pool table!! So much FUN to be had at this house with plenty of space so you aren't feeling cramped!

What makes this property unique

This house is the perfect location! Settled in a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the city yet a short drive to America's oldest town and (in our opinion) the BEST beaches in Florida!
