Our host Melody was phenomenal. Responded swiftly to all our questions, made check in and check out a breeze, and fully stocked the kitchen and bathroom with necessities to make us feel at home. The guest house is beautifully kept, clean and quiet! Especially loved lounging in the comfy robes. We had a blast!

Fabulous Rental!

My daughter and I stayed in the Uptown Shack. It was so nice and clean! It was beautifully decorated! The bed was very comfortable. Our host, Melody, sent clear instructions and directions. She greeted us when we arrived. She also made homemade cookies for us and left us some of their local honey. There were snacks and drinks available to us in the rental. It was walkable to all of the things we wanted to do in St. Augustine. We loved this rental and would definitely stay again!!

Great stay at Uptown Shack.

We had a wonderful time in St. Augustine. The Uptown Shack is a beautiful place to stay. Its’s clean, walking distance to everything we wanted to do and the hosts went beyond tp provide snacks, homemade cookies and most importantly bottled water!! If you get a chance, stay here. You won’t be sorry.

Cozy little place!

Cute & cozy guest house. Short walking distance to St George Street and downtown St Augustine. 15 min drive to Vilano beach. Lots of yummy restaurants near by. We would recommend The Columbia Restaurant, but be sure to make a reservation if you’re going for dinner on a weekend. Would recommend this place for a nice little getaway!

Great Place

We loved the condo. It was very clean and the local was close enough to walk to historic areas. The only thing we didn’t care for was the scented products in the condo. We both have allergies and we didn’t react well to the perfume smell.

Sandi and I really enjoyed our stay. The apartment has everything you would ever need. It’s decorated beautifully and every item is top-notch! The location is close to downtown and we walked each day to all the shops and restaurants. We will definitely be back the next time we head to St. Augustine! Thank you for helping make our anniversary and birthday special!

Great Experience

It is a great location to stay if you are wanting to walk around St Augustine. Driving and parking uptown is a bit crazy and something we wanted to avoid. The property is close enough to town to comfortably walk but far enough to not be noisy. The property is very well taken care of and clean.

Top notch rental

We have never stayed in a rental as updated, clean, upscale amenities , and welcoming. They provided everything and more including homemade cookies. The bed is very comfortable too. In addition it’s walking distance to everything St. Augustine has to offer. Great hostess. Very easy check in with clear directions from Melody. Highly recommend for visiting St Augustine.

Perfect St Augustine getaway

The owners have thought of everything! Comfy bed, remote shade on windows, phone chargers next to the bed, fluffy towels, and even a treat of chocolate chip cookies. We walked to restaurants and shops. Lovely weekend in St Augustine and would stay here again.

As good or better than the photos suggest.

The guest book's earlier entries were from 2018. We were surprised because the guest house is so pristine that we thought it was brand new construction. The towels and robes are plush and ultra soft. There are thoughtful touches like snacks in the kitchen and candies by the bed. Melody was welcoming, friendly, and responded quickly to every inquiry. Location is an easy walk to the historic section of town. We would absolutely choose this Adorable Guest House again.

A perfect home base

Melody and Ali have created a fantastic home away from home in St Augustine. We come to the area often for family visits and this is by far our most comfortable stay. The Uptown Shack is the perfect combination of cozy and luxurious. And the location simply can't be beat. :-)

We are locals born/raised in this area. We purchased the main home in 2007 and did an extensive renovation which took 2 years. In 2017 we added a brand new garage with guest house above which is our special rental that was built to host friends and family.

Why they chose this property

2017 new build with all the charm to match our circa 1906 bungalow in downtown St Augustine. All the modern comforts of new construction near the heart of downtown.

What makes this property unique

endless hot water. a short walk to all the attractions and restaurants. reserved private parking with alley access.
