Intracoastal Waterfront Home! Immaculately Clean!
Year Purchased: 1999
Why the Owner Chose St. Augustine
We built this house in 1999 for a family member, and couldn't possibly think of selling it when it was no longer in use! We just began renting it as a VRBO rental in the past year and a half, and we have been very busy with our guests! We have had guests from all over the world so far, and they have been terrific. Oregon, Arkansas, Ohio, Canada, Illinois, North Carolina, South Carolina, Washington State, Tennessee, Mass, Maryland, Spain and many more to come over the next year! St. Augustine is such a wonderful little town, with it's Spanish heritage, and many fun events, you can always find something to do here! And there is always the beach.....
The Unique Benefits at this House
It's so beautiful and peaceful at the rental house! No phone ringing, no worries, just extremely relaxing. We had fun decorating it, and making it a little piece of paradise for our guests. Everything in the house is extremely high quality! Leather sofa's, 100% bamboo sheets, Lennox China! The house is immaculately cleaned between each use! And I don't mean a light dusting, it is totally torn apart, washed, sanitized and put back together! We supply everything needed to get started on your wonderful vacation. Coffee, cream, sugar, laundry detergent, dish washing liquid, EVERYTHING! And if you don't find it, call us and we can get it!

We loved our time at this well done home!

This house was great for our girls' getaway. We enjoy playing games and just spending time together so the location and amenities of the house were perfect for our purposes. The location is a quiet neighborhood, but the beach and several nice restaurants are very close. It is a good area for walking, either the streets or the beach, and two bikes are provided for guests to use. The decor is very well done and the house truly is immaculate. The view and dock on the Intracoastal are a nice extra!

We were certainly not disappointed! The house is very nice and well cared for, and had everything we needed! We loved the location also. Now all we need is another trip to St. Augustine, because there's so much to do! Having the ocean so close by was very convenient, and I'm now in love with the Atlantic coast.. We certainly ate well! Saltwater Cowboys was one of our favorites. Thanks, Melinda for all your help and advice. You just may have us as guests again someday!

My husband and I just returned from a one week stay at the "Wahoo House". This is a lovely home very nicely decorated and stocked with anything one might need. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house was spotless when we arrived. We visited St. Augustine many times for dinner and shopping. It was a few minutes drive away. We had coctails out on the dock on the intercostal several nights also. I already have relatives interested in a future rental here and we would definately like to stay here again. I picked this house because of the picutures that showed me it was more than a typical rental. It is as nice or better than the photographs. Thanks for a great expericnce. K&R
Owner response:Wonderful Renters.....AGAIN! Thank you for taking such great care of our place, and we are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the house. We'll look for you again soon.....

The house more than lived up to our expectations. It was immaculate and very comfortable and was located in a very peaceful neighbourhood. It had one of the best equpped kitchens of any property we have rented. We could be in St Augustine in ten minutes. Our one appliance failure was addressed promptly the same day. It was also within five minutes of one of the best seafood restaurants in the area.( Caps On The Water). We would highly recommend this rental.
Owner response:It was lovely to meet you, and we hope you come back soon and stay "warm" with us! We felt bad that the refrigerator conked out on night ONE!! Luckily we were able to get a brand new top of the line replacement in by 2pm that day!!! Thank you for taking the time to review our place! Have a great summer!

We just got back from a delightful experience staying at your private cottage on the ICW. We normally stay at hotels in the area when we visit St. Augustine, but this was so much better. It was very enjoyable to spend the first half of each day relaxing (beach combing, fishing, etc.), then each afternoon catching one of the many sights in the area (St. George St., Sightseeing Trains, Lightner Museum, Pirates Museum, and others). It was an over-all wonderful experience that we hope to repeat in the future. Thanks for making it possible.
Owner response:Thank you so much!!! You were the most immaculate family we have ever had!!! We appreciate you coming and staying with us...hope to have you back real soon! Next time, let's try for a little warmer weather for all your fishing!

So close to town but far enough away to be tranquil and relaxing! We loved this home and property! What a treat to wake up in the morning and walk out through the beautiful low hanging spanish moss covered oaks to the private dock overlooking the tidal river. Superb accomodations were right on target and no expense was spared. St. Augustine (4 miles away) has a lot to offer - history, great food, museums - just a bunch to see and do. We had Manatee's swimming past the dock as well as dolphins! We fished our hearts out - catching everything from Flounder to Black Sea Bass - certainly a fishermans haven! The house was as clean as described and the sheets are as good as described! We went to the nature preserve (6 miles away) 3 days to beachcomb - found plenty of sharks teeth, sea glass and shells. Super nice beaches - well worth the parking fee ($3 donation)! Went to Alligator farm - a must see - Gomack is unbelievable - go early before it gets hot and feed the alligators too - fun! Did the trolley pass, which was nice to be able to jump on and off of - saw Fountain of Youth, Old Jail, museum next to old jail - all was good, but seeing it once was enough. So many things to see and do - you could spend all week just touring and shopping! Outlet malls are close too! Thanks for sharing your little peice of heaven with us - we enjoyed it and will recommend to friends and family!!
Owner response:Thank you so much for choosing our place! And again, I must say thank you for taking such good care of our place! Hope to see you again!

My wife and I stayed for a week at this beautiful property for our honeymoon and first visit to St. Augustine. The house was amazing! We slept great every night on super comfy bamboo sheets. The garage had two bikes we used to cruise around. The back yard is beautiful and we watched the sun set every night on the back dock. The kitchen was spacious and had everything we needed to cook all our meals. We also loved the whole decor of the house, it wasn't your typical cheesy beach decor, instead it was very elegant but functional. The Owner was very helpful whenever we had questions or needed to get in touch. Property was spotless and clean. The location is great, just enough out of the way to be secluded with only a 4 minute drive to downtown St Augustine. I would HIGHLY recommend this property to anyone planing a visit to the area. Could not have been a better honeymoon for us! Thanks!!
Owner response:Thank you both for choosing our little Wahoo House in which to begin your married life together! We are glad you had a great experience....and perhaps we will see you back on your 10th anniversary (or before)??? Thank you for taking such exceptional care of our little haven! Have a great life!

The title is our expletive.........we loved it! The house is lovely,Immaculate, spacious and wanting nothing. It was great for our waistlines to make our own breakfast, walk the beach, swim,come home to shower and head out to explore all the wonderful sights of the area. Choosing our dinner spots was always an adventure so we sampled several types of cuisine e.g French, Spanish, Japanese sushi and of course some traditional Floridian seafood. We so enjoyed the view of the waterway and relaxing with our books,drinks in hand, under the shade of the magnificent live oaks. Flora and fauna abound! It was a sunny, 82 degree morning when we left Florida but als, we arrived to a cloudy 52 degrees NH afternoon. We want to go back to our Wahoo Street heaven.!! Thank you Melinda! Note to all guests: Tre Sebastian is a really lovely boutique. Make it a point to drop in.
Owner response:I am so glad you enjoyed your stay!!! I thank you for taking such perfect care of our Wahoo House!! You must come back soon to enjoy our fantastic Florida weather....Again, many thanks to you both!
