The family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and exactly as pictured. We fished from the dock and even sat by the fire pit when it got chilly one night. Host Amy was fantastic with communicating with us and provided us with everything we needed and more for us to have an enjoyable Stay. The family loved it and we will definitely be back.

It was such a pleasure to host you and your family. My cleaner was so impressed with how clean you all kept the house! Thank you for that. We sincerely hope youā€™ll choose to stay here again in the future. Well done some fun goodies for you now that you have the fishing and crabbing down! Wishing you all many blessings for the holidays. Your host team

Miss Amy was an absolute godsend during our stay, ensuring that we had everything you could possibly think of, giving recommendations on local amenities and even going to the extent of writing a card in condolences to the recent loss we had. The home was in great condition and lived up to the expectations! I hope to stay in this beautiful, spacious home again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The home is spacious and there is a large outdoor area. Our son was married at the Ribeault Club on Fort George Island and it was very close to the venue. We had other family members staying with us and there was plenty of room. Communication with Amy was excellent.

This house was amazing and Amy was incredibly responsive. The configuration of the house is unique. The master suite on the second floor was quiet and comfortable. There were 3 bedrooms grouped together that are perfect for young couples who want to socialize. There was also a MIL suite on the first floor with a private bath. For those who like to cook, the appliances are high end and the pots/pans/dishes/silverware are excellent quality. The beds were comfortable with nice sheets. Loved the outdoor space. We enjoyed the dock every morning and evening; frequent dolphin sitings! We also used the fire pit and grill. Overall this home was an excellent value and was enjoyed by everyone in our family party. We'll definitely be renting this one again!

Large family vacation

We were a big family group of 11 with 2 kids and the house was perfect for us, lots of games for kids of all ages, plenty of sitting room in different areas to have some privacy. The best of all was the fantastic dock on the river with sundowns, boats, dolphins. Not for swimming. There were some issues with shower drains, perhaps due to the fact that Hurrican Milton had just passed through. Lots of nice welcome amenities, plenty of coffee and teas, salt and pepper etc. Host Amy did everything to make sure we had everything we needed. The sleepers in the main bedroom on the second floor said the road out front was surprisingly loud at night. All in all a fantastic place to stay!

My family and I came to Jacksonville for a Family Reunion. The home was perfect for our family! Beautiful view and actually got a chance to see the dolphins in the water. Host was very responsive and helpful the entire time. The home was clean and very family friendly! They had a pac & play and high chair for my nephew to use. The host allowed an early check in and left snacks for us to enjoy when we arrived. I definitely will recommend you staying here if you are ever in Jacksonville!
