About this property

Oceanfront House with Private Beach, Patio, and Gameroom

Thanks for your interest in our direct-oceanfront beach house. Since 2003 we have been providing great experiences for our guests, and this year is no exception. 2024 marks our 21st rental season on VRBO, and we have received over 200 perfect reviews. The house has four bedrooms, and with the fold out couch, can accommodate up to ten people.

Although we are only a few minutes away from Jacksonville, St. Augustine and Ponte Vedra Beach, we are on one of the most isolated beaches in Florida, which makes it perfect for an uncrowded, family vacation. The house is bordered north and south by single family, oceanfront homes, and on the west by a huge, uninhabited nature preserve. Just a few steps to the east is the Atlantic Ocean, with beautiful sunrises and the sound of endless waves. The closest public accesses are nearly a mile in either direction, and with no motorized vehicles allowed, you'll only see walkers looking for shells and sharks' teeth.

This is a roomy, comfortable, two-story home with four bedrooms (king, king, queen, and twins) and three full bathrooms. Three bedrooms, with King, Queen and Twin beds and two bathrooms are located upstairs; the other King bedroom and bath, along with a large game room which has a sofa-bed, are located downstairs. The two floors and two common areas provide a lot of separation, which can be nice with even the closest of families (i.e. teenagers vs. adults, or working vs. relaxing). It is perfect for the extended family, and can handle multiple generations with ease.

Outside, it's only a few steps to the beach. There are plenty of chairs, a fenced in courtyard with gas grille, outside hot/cold showers and covered area for some shade. Just a great beach location! The fully equipped kitchen, living room, dining room, playroom, downstairs and upstairs master bedrooms overlook the Atlantic Ocean; and comfortable first and second floor decks overlooking the ocean can give guests a breathtaking view of the sunrise over the water. Perfect for sitting in the shade and watching the activities on the beach below.

The house is strategically located midway between prestigious Ponte Vedra Beach and historic St. Augustine, which offer fine and casual dining, shopping, and recreation for all. The City of Jacksonville is less than an hour away, offering big time sports, entertainment and world class medical facilities, including the Mayo Clinic and M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

If you have read our 200+ reviews, you already know that we maintain the house to a high standard of cleanliness, and after Covid, we are even more diligent to sanitize between guests. Our fully equipped kitchen will allow you to prepare your own meals, save a bunch of money over restaurants, and stay as isolated as you desire.

Rates and minimum night rentals are adjusted for peak times and seasons. Weekly rentals (7 nights or more) get a 10% discount except during the summer months of June and July, when we require a Saturday-to-Saturday weekly rental. We have a two-night minimum stay during the rest of the year, with some exceptions such as Thanksgiving.

Please note that this is a non-smoking house, and does not allow pets. Also, the house may not be used as a venue for weddings, reunions, or other events hosting those not staying at the house. The person responsible for the rental must be at least 25 years old and staying at the house, and the maximum number of guests allowed is ten. We hope you will consider our house for your family vacation.

Great house in a spectacular location!
This is a very nice well equipped and comfortable home right on the beach. It was a perfect four day stay for six adults and a toddler. The lower level with kitchen, bathroom, and laundry is great for a young family. We had a fabulous time in the North Guana Preserve, the beach and exploring St. Augustine. The check-in process was simple and the owner readily available. We had a chance to meet and chat with owner. A great guy who clearly takes pride in the property and area. We highly recommend a stay at this home for anyone visiting the area!

Beautiful beach!
This beach could not be more beautiful! We loved the views and had a blast enjoying spending time on the deck and playing cornhole in the back. Everything we needed was provided. Our host was in constant communication and everything was super easy and convenient. Would definitely come again!

About the host

Hosted by Thomas L Turnage jr

Host profile image
I am Tom Turnage and I live in nearby Jacksonville. I was born and raised in Northeast Florida and am in the construction and real estate business. My wife, Laura, and I purchased the house in 2003 as a fixer-upper and we have extensively remodeled the house since purchase. We use the house for both personal use and as an investment. I am very active in the community and was a founder of the South Ponte Vedra - Vilano Beach Preservation Association.

Why they chose this property

The beach house is about 45 minutes from my home and office in Jacksonville. I went surfing near the house growing up, and still love the private nature of the beach in this area. The house is far enough away from our Jacksonville home to feel like we've gotten away, but is close enough to escape in the middle of the week even for a night.

What makes this property unique

Peace and Quiet. The house is located between Jacksonville Beach and St. Augustine. It is surrounded by Guana State Park and the closest public beach accesses are almost a mile away. Probably one of the least crowded beaches in Florida. It is a great for those who want to get away from the rat race, but still be close enough that golf courses and good restaurants are a short drive away.
