About this property

Serene Retreat w/ Private Backyard

Settle into a spacious two-story home in Jacksonville's Girvin area, where four bedrooms give families and groups room to spread out and a private backyard adds space to slow down between days out exploring. With a king bedroom, queen bedroom, and two twin-bed rooms, the layout works especially well for families, friends, traveling teams, and groups who want comfortable sleeping arrangements without crowding everyone into the same space.

Sleeping arrangements
Four separate bedrooms accommodate up to 8 guests. The primary sleeping setup includes one king bed, one queen bed, and two additional bedrooms with two twin beds in each. The mix of larger beds and individual twins makes the home especially flexible for families with children, groups of friends, or guests who simply prefer their own sleeping space.

Living space
The two-story layout gives your group room to spread out instead of feeling packed into a smaller rental. Gather together when you want to spend time as a group, while four separate bedrooms make it easy to find a quieter space when everyone is ready to wind down.

Kitchen & dining
A full kitchen gives you the flexibility to prepare meals at home, keep snacks and drinks on hand, or enjoy an easy breakfast before heading out for the day. The home is well suited to both quick weekend trips and longer Jacksonville stays where having your own kitchen makes settling in a little easier.

Outdoor space
Step outside to your own private backyard - a welcome bonus for groups who want some fresh air without leaving the property. It provides an additional place to relax between outings and gives families more room beyond the interior of the home.

Bathrooms
Two full bathrooms serve the home's four bedrooms, helping mornings and evenings move more smoothly when you're traveling with a larger group.

Layout & access
This is a private, two-story home rather than a shared unit. Bedrooms and living spaces are spread across two levels, so guests should be comfortable using stairs during their stay.

Extras
With six individual beds across four bedrooms, a private backyard, and space for up to 8 guests, the home is designed to work equally well for family trips, groups traveling together, extended stays, or anyone looking for more room than a typical hotel setup.

Neighborhood
The home is located in Jacksonville's Girvin area, putting you near the Fort Caroline side of the city and within easy reach of Jacksonville's parks, waterways, shopping, dining, and beaches. Fort Caroline National Memorial and the trails and natural areas of the Timucuan Preserve are nearby options for guests who want to explore some of Northeast Florida's outdoor scenery, while the location also provides a convenient starting point for getting around the greater Jacksonville area.
