Hi Matthew. We do take pride in our property and it shows in our reviews. We look forward to hosting you again and we appreciate your excellent review!
We've stayed at this cottage for 3 years now. We love it and everything is as described. Very clean and easy access to the beach. Our fur baby loved it as well!
Perfectly suited beach house with everything you need for a memorable beach vacation. Directly across the street from the beach access makes getting to the beach very convenient.
This was our second time and once again we had an amazing week! You cannot beat the location, it’s perfect for just the 3 of us and our 2 dogs! Beach right across the street, huge outdoor shower, we grilled 4 times. Bed super comfy. Can’t wait to stay here again next year
We can't say enough how much we enjoy staying at this cottage. The proximity to the beach is awesome and we have visited this house twice now. We definitely will book again!
This was our 2nd visit at this perfect cottage! Very clean and updated, we cooked dinner a few nights and had all the needed cookware, great location to nearby restaurants and the best beach access. We will definitely be returning.
This was my fourth time visiting the area and my third time in this house. Loved everything about it. Had everything we needed for a nice, relaxing vacation.
We loved staying in this cottage. It was the perfect space for our family, right across the street from the beach and convenient to everything we needed. It was perfect! Will definitely stay here again.
Jean was wonderful responding to all of my questions regarding does the house have……. If you love to cook, the kitchen is well equipped. Adorable bungalow/cottage for our holiday stay. I would definitely stay here in the future!!!
The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable. The location is incredible with convenient access to the amazing beach. Would love to return for two weeks next year!
Super convenient to the beach and downtown activities, which is where our family spends the majority of our time in Amelia Island. Owner was excellent to deal with and the listing was accurate to what we found when we arrived. First time we were this close to the beach, and it saved us a lot of time in travel to and from each day. Excellent vacation and this location was a big part of that result!!!
We loved our stay at this property. The owner was extremely helpful and answered all questions promptly. The house was well supplied and extremely comfortable.
Our second year at the cottage and it was better than the first. Clean, comfortable and steps to the beach. We couldn’t have been happier with our two weeks here!
The cottage was super nice and clean. Very convenient beach access. Property manager was very nice, as was the next door neighbor! I will definitely rent again!
This was our second stay here. We love this little house! The property manager Jean is super nice and easy to communicate with. Everything has been thought of down to beach towels and doggie supplies. The location is perfect! We’ll be back many times!
