Walls, floor and ceiling are buckling. Floor is so uneven, feels like a fun house. Was waiting for whole place to fall into garage below it. Location, view, and beach access awesome. Place is likely not structurally sound. Left early.
The cottage felt like you were at home. It wasn't giving a commercial vibe but more of a home and relax vibe. The owners were very kind and the view is amazing.
We absolutely loved our stay at this beachfront cottage and so did my dog! The views were incredible, when we weren’t on the beach, we were on the porch soaking it all in. You truly can’t beat the location or it's private beach access. The home felt so cozy and welcoming, like a place we’ve been coming to for years.Bud was an amazing host. He was friendly, responsive, and a pleasure to meet in person too. 15/10 experience. We’ll definitely be back next year for another very merry, beachy Christmas!

Awesome beach cottage with amazing private beach access!
We had a wonderful time and loved that we could bring our dogs! Property was well equipped for our family of 5 and the owner (and neighbors) were all so friendly!
Our first trip to Fernadina was wonderful . Bud was super friendly and had the place in great condition when we arrived. We loved being steps away from the beach with our two boys and pups !
We always enjoy our stay here. Cant beat the view and the beautiful sunrise. Owner was available when we had trouble finding the lock box (always appreciated!!) Thanks so much!

Cottage on the Beach
We loved our time here. The location is perfect, private and the view is fantastic. Very basic and yet everything is provided. We needed batteries for the remote and Bud was there within minutes to help us. He was very kind. This is our 2nd time staying here and I’m sure we’ll be back. Thanks for everything!
This is the kind of beach cottage I remember from childhood. Low-key, homey, and thoughtfully appointed, right down to novels by local authors. I could stay there for a month! The owner/manager lives downstairs and is pleasantly available if you need anything. You do have to get your suitcase up an exterior flight of steps, but he'll help you. You can see the ocean from the porch and walk to it in 2 minutes along a private boardwalk.

Awesome experience
Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The view from the front door was absolutely gorgeous. The home was clean and efficient. It was so awesome to be able to just walk out the door and walk down to the beach on the private entrance walkway. Definitely worth it. And Definitely would love to return.

Older beach house with great views. This is our second time staying here. Our last visit was in 2021. However, this visit wasn’t the same. The house has not been maintained well since then. Falling down ceiling plaster in every room and cabinets that can’t close, Dust covered walls and Roaches rule the kitchen at night. (Mostly) Minor things that have been seriously ignored. It’s a great location, it just needs some love to be brought back to life.

From the owner: Thanks for the feedback. However, I wish you had mentioned these issues during some of our conversations while ya'll were here. We take the issue of bugs very seriously. This is why we have pest control that's guaranteed, so anytime they get to be a problem, they will come out and spray at no additional charge. We don't know we have a problem until someone tells us we have a problem. Needless to say, we have requested additional services, so this will not be a problem again.The cabinet doors have been an issue. The problem has been getting our handyman's schedule and our booking schedule to match. Fortunately, we have resolved scheduling issues, and this is being rectified.The ceiling has been an issue. Several years ago, we replaced the popcorn finish with the knockdown finish (the material is drywall mud, not plaster). We've had issues with it cracking and have had repairs done, only to see it occur again. We're talking to people to resolve this and get this taken care of.We appreciate your feedback, and next time you visit, things will be better. We strive with each booking to deliver a 5-star experience.

beautiful location, house needs improvement
The house is in a great location, however the inside needs some work. It looks far better in the picture than in reality. Our overall stay was a good mainly because we did not spend much time in the house as we enjoyed the fantastic location and proximity to the town, but the house really deserves some improvements.
Can see the ocean from deck and big door windows! Can hear the waves hitting the beach, Can walk on boardwalk to ocean and enjoy the walk along the beach! So relaxing. Beach House has everything we needed and comfortable bed! dogs were enjoying their time too. Neighbors, owner... everyone so friendly and welcoming! We will be back!
This property is a beach front and not a fancy rental. The decor has been done very well and is as pictured. The walk to the fabulous beach is over a board walk which is next to the house. The rental is in need of some maintenance but this area just had a hurricane last September.
View and beach were beautiful.
Beach was not crowded.
The host who lived on the property was very cordial.
Pet friendly
I would have liked to see some things cleaner.
The cottage was located directly on A1A and the noise was loud while trying to sleep.
The stairs leading into the cottage would be a problem for anyone with mobility issues.
Overall we had a great stay.
