Our Mission is to make your vacation rental experience simply marvelous.

Our cottage is tucked behind a 6 foot privacy fence. You will feel safe and secluded in our very comfortable 790 square foot home. While we are secluded, we are at the same time right in the middle of UpTown. A 3 minute walk to Spinster Abbotts and Sundays, grab at bite or have an adult beverage at the tap room at Spinsters. Many choices! There is ice cream and cupcakes right around the corner. The Raintree Restaurant is 2 blocks away. Awesome Weekend Brunch. Our street is one of the iconic Coquina Alleyways that St Augustine is famous for, just a wonderful olde town touch. It can appear to be dark but we have a motion light/camera to enhance your night sight.

We cannot accommodate more than 4 in our small cozy home. All sizes children count as a whole person. It is a small cottage (2bed/1bath) and we would not want you to feel crowded. * sneaking an extra can cause an up charge.
For those of you who like things Clean, we have you covered. We have an awesome house keeper who gets the full cleaning fee. I come in after and enhance. It is super important to me that your are really comfortable. We like to come down and stay here and I want to be Super Comfortable and be confident where I am staying is clean, really clean. This is your vacation and you should be relaxing not cleaning to feel comfortable. Stay Relax, we will do the laundry.

Work Space: if you need anything to WORK let us know. We are able to provide an extra monitor, possibly a printer ( I do not supply ink, we talk), the vanity table can work as a desk, it did for me for years with a laptop. We can provide another kitchen table, if you need more real estate. The kitchen chairs are MCM school chairs, very comfy. The Internet wiring is Cat6. We have every cable know to man. This must be planned in advance 'cos John will bring you the wrong cables if D isn't home. Only D knows where this stuff is and how to hook up.
