Our Summerhouse Beach And Racquet Club condo is a unique vacation destination located on beautiful Crescent Beach. Summerhouse is just minutes from St. Augustine’s old city and the many exciting and informative attractions found there.
Just 15 miles from downtown St. Augustine and half way between Jacksonville and Daytona Beach, Summerhouse is located on the southern end of Crescent Beach just north of Matanzas Inlet. Besides the many historical and cultural offerings found in nearby St. Augustine, there are several well known, family-oriented attractions found within a two hour's drive of Summerhouse.
Heading south to Daytona Beach on scenic A1A or interstate 95 is the Daytona International Speedway, home of the Daytona 500, Pepsi 400, and other NASCAR events throughout the year.

Heading southwest on route 40 is Ocala, home to numerous high-profile horse farms and one of the major venues of the Winter - Southern Circuit - Grand Prix events. Ocala is also home to Silver Springs where the original "Tarzan" movies were filmed back in the 1930's and 1940's. This 350 acre natural theme park also hosted the filming of "Sea Hunt" in the 1960's.
Further south, on route I-4 just outside of Orlando you'll find Disney World and its 4 theme parks; The Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney-MGM Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom Park.

Owner's Map of St. Augustine
Joe ( retired Jacksonville Fire Chief over 34 years) and wife, Sally (homemaker/childbearer of 5), have been spending summer vacations with our children at Summerhouse for over 25 years. We purchased our first Summerhouse condo in 1998, sold it in 2008 and bought our current unit 165 a month later. We love Summerhouse! The location is on one of the most beautiful white sandy beaches, surrounded by history, private homes, bird sanctuary. Our children are now bringing their children and claim it as their favorite beach vacation.
