About the host
Hosted by Karen Vahling
This place was built by the owner who has over 30 years on St. John. It is ran by the owner, sometimes with the assistance of other friendly islanders. Joy of Life Villa and Properties encompass "the good life" and places the best memories are made. You will feel the love put into every detail.
Why they chose this property
Freeman's Ground is quiet and peaceful, yet convenient to Coral Bay. The parcels here are larger than other neighborhoods and the views are unsurpassed. I have 3 parcels totaling 2.5 acres.
What makes this property unique
It's a nature lover's paradise. Castaway Cottage is completely private and a hidden gem. Nothing else like it on the island. I must be experienced!
