Smaller two bedroom, one bath home, quaint and clean. Comfortable beds, large TVs, nice back yard and a large parking area in front. A functional kitchen with washer and dryer. Reasonably priced and super close to downtown in a quiet neighborhood. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay in Jacksonville at this clean and comfortable home. It was conveniently located to a wonderful restaurant and micro brewery. We went to St Augustine and it was an easy drive. This was a quality stay for a great price.

Ample parking at the main door. A large, private backyard. All the furniture looked great, and the whole decor had a really cool vibe. I really love the red leather couch in front of the enormous television. Everything was very clean. Some extras such as air freshener in the bathroom was a nice addition. Prompt communication with the owner. This is a property where I would stay again when I return to Jacksonville.

Very cute, clean and inviting home. Plenty of parking. Has everything you need. Host was very prompt answering all of my questions. Wish the home had a little more additional storage for clothes such as drawers in each bedroom but overall I have no complaints.

I felt safe being in a neighborhood. Neighbors were friendly. Close to events and shopping. Perfect size for two friends traveling for a few days. There are security cameras and I noticed neighbors with security cameras. Would definitely book this property again. Very cute and cozy home. Has fenced backyard. Felt safe in neighborhood. Host quick to respond to questions and has a list of nearby hospital and emergency if needed.

Great place and great location.

I have family in San Marco and this was perfect for my family to have our own space. The neighborhood was quiet. The description was exactly as the owner provided. The home was clean with ample parking. It was our home away from home for Thanksgiving break and we would definitely stay here again when the need arises. No complaints whatsoever.

Quaint house with everything you needed:)

Great location. Close to Avondale, San Marco. Took an Art Bike tour with Electric bikes. 4 miles from my daughters house that lives in Jacksonville. Clean, had drinks and snacks and ice! Loved the washer and dryer:) Great stay! Would rent again!

Pros - nicely decorated, fast internet, safe and sleepy little secluded community, centrally located and close to amenities, quiet community park nearby, cannot smell / hear anything from inside the house. Cons - very tiny house, neighborhood smells strongly of swamp outside, sparse kitchen pots/pans, loud highway noise outside, overgrown yard with gaps under fence so small and small/medium dogs cannot stay out back. Priced accordingly so I would recommend, but know the above before you book so expectations are set properly.
