The space: - Open-concept living area with fireplace, Smart TV & high-speed WiFi - Fully equipped kitchen and dining for up to 6 guests - Shaded upper deck with bar seating & large TV overlooking the creek - Creekside firepit & gazebo with chiminea for al fresco evenings - outdoor game area with pool table & dartboard on the lower level. Boating & outdoors: - Launch boats, kayaks & paddleboards right onsite - Free parking for 3 cars and trailers - Fish from the dock or embankment (at your own risk) Neighborhood: Just a 40-minute drive from Jacksonville’s dining and attractions, yet tucked into a serene, wooded setting alive with native wildlife. Perfect for families, small groups, and pet-friendly retreats (up to 2 dogs under 25 lbs). Book now to experience peaceful Florida waterside living!



This beautiful home is elevated - so stairs are required.



Please note: Turning in, you may park on the driveway along the house. **This property is in a very wooded area along the Black Creek - so there will be a variety of native Floridians about - from birds, squirrels, bugs, and maybe a raccoon from time to time. There are critters in the Black Creek as well! Please keep that in mind. And, since we are in the country, you will hear some roosters & chickens that are nearby too! The water is well water.



Pet Friendly - pets less than 25 lbs - (max 2) additional cleaning/pet hair removal fee required. Pets must be disclosed in advance. Fee is per pet. All dogs are to be treated with Advantage or similar topical flea and tick repellent three (3) days prior to arrival. Fleas and ticks are very rampant in this area and can cause harmful/fatal illness to humans and pets. All items above are the sole responsibility of the dog owner. Failure to disclose the pet in advance will result in a $500 fee.



**Parties / Gatherings / Events over our noted occupancy are strictly prohibited - as noted in the rental agreement. Penalties will be enforced. The property is monitored by Minut / Noise Aware as noted in the booking agreement. There are exterior security cameras in the front facing the entry, driveway, underneath facing the parking area and also in back facing the dock area. The cameras help us monitor the property, boat ramp, and parking because the house is on stilts along flood-prone Black Creek.



Agreement / House Rules: Booking with us means you confirm that the primary guest is 25 years of age or older and that you have reviewed and will fully comply with all booking terms and house rules provided prior to booking.



**No Smoking Inside or on any of the deck areas of the home. If smoking is done by the firepit/in the yard - please properly dispose of the waste and do not ash or litter butts on the patio, area under the house or anywhere on site. If evidence of that is found, an additional fee will apply for cleanup.



**Propane Tank (1) Included - Propane level is monitored and the tank will be filled to be in the "green". If the tank runs out, you would need to have it refilled at your own expense. Tanks may be refilled at Publix, Home Depot, True Value Hardware. Please follow the directions when changing the tank under the grill.



BBQ: Please do not move/relocate it. The BBQ Grill needs to stay where it is and on the mat we have underneath to help protect our deck from grease/spills, etc.



Firepit Creek Side: We do not provide firewood. It may be purchased nearby at Home Depot, Lowe's, Publix, or any other local seller you may find. We have firepit tools to use to assist in use of the pit. We have outdoor adirondack chairs (4) that are kept under the house - for use around the firepit.



The reservation must be for the exact # of guests that will be on site - max occupancy is 6 guests anytime day or night. Guest names must be sent prior to arrival.



There is direct access to the Black Creek from the home, and use is at your own risk. You can fish off the embankment or the dock at your own risk. The nearest access is 1 mile to the Main Street Boat Ramp. The boat lift is not available for guest use. There are areas to the side and in front of the ramp where you may secure your boat/water craft during your stay.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The property was very nice. Had a good time. What I didn’t like was the amount of video cameras around the property. Did not feel very private. My family including grand kids being filmed and watched in bathing suits is not right! No cameras inside the house that I saw, but everywhere else is being watched.

Thank you for staying with us! We're glad you had a good time and enjoyed our creekfront home. We understand concerns about privacy. For full transparency, our listing clearly states: “There are exterior security cameras in the front facing the entry, driveway, underneath facing the parking area and also in back facing the dock area.” These are exterior cameras only — none inside the home. The cameras help us monitor the property, boat ramp, and parking because the house is on stilts along flood-prone Black Creek. We disclose this upfront so every guest knows exactly what to expect before booking. We’re always happy to answer any questions prior to reservation. We appreciate the feedback and look forward to hosting future guests! Thanks! Bart & Sue

Quiet spot on the creek

We enjoyed our stay in this cozy and quiet rental. The grounds were clean and the deck, including the dock, was also clean and the wood looked new. The inside of the house was pristine and plenty of room for the 4 of us. We will definitely be back!

Lovely, freshly updated house right on the creek. The house was perfect for our needs. Inside was well appointed and the outside facilities were perfect (firepit, gas firepit, propane grill) and the location right on the creek was so peaceful.Would stay here again for sure. Communication was great. Inquiries were answered quickly. I requested later checkout as our departure flight was later in the day and they got us 11:30 which was so helpful.Five stars all the way!!

This was one of the better places we have rented via VRBO. It was very clean and extremely accurate against the listing. It was well appointed with the plates, silverware and everything needed to cook at home. The sofa, loveseat and beds were really comfortable. We liked that we could bring the dogs with us for a reasonable fee, and the property / lot was good room for the dogs to get out and do their business. The water front location was so good but we did not take full advantage of it. :( the back deck was great and the ice machine was a nice surprise as it was so hot we needed to ice. The pool table down on the area under the house was fun to play on at the end of the day. Only a short 8 minutes drive away was a Publix supermarket, and some restaurants. The hosts were very responsive and easy to get a hold of. We really enjoyed our stay here while visiting friends and we would definitely rent this VRBO again.

This place is awesome. You can have breakfast on the back porch and watch the boaters or listen to the birds and the calm waters. The place is clean and relaxing. You can text the owners and get a quick response.
