Excellent location. A short 2 minute walk to the ocean. Kinda midpoint on the island, so halfway before Ft Clinch state park to the north and Amelia Is State park to the south. Owners were very responsive to any needs. (live next door) Certainly not upscale, nothing fancy about the interior but suited our needs just fine.

This house is not correctly represented online by the pictures. There are so many things that need to be addressed I don’t even know where to start. Rippling in the drywall in living room, floors not level, badly in need of painting, we experienced roaches during our stay. We had 2 bathrooms, neither of which had a plug so you could do your hair. Also the mattresses need replacing badly in the guest room. I believe this house was built in the early 1940’s which is no problem in and of itself if the property had been taken care of. It is very neglected and for some 1,300 a week I felt very ripped off. I would not recommend this property to anyone except repairmen. I have pictures available if necessary to confirm my complaints. In the picture attached the wall you see is covered by a loveseat in the online photos.

Loved the location very close to beach and restaurants:) Jerry was great he took care of our every need. Cottage was very clean and organized. Loved being able to have our German Shepherd Rose, staying there with us, so many places have ( silly) weight requirements. Would definitely stay there again!

Slightly surprised that it was a traditional keyed lock, the house was clean but slightly dated in some areas. Location is great for the beach. Fenced in area is small, was hard for my older dog.

Great location on a great beach!

Super price for a super location! The house isn’t fancy, but it has all you need for a great vacation. We had two teenagers with us & felt safe letting them ride bikes to restaurants or walk anywhere. Jerry, the host, is fantastic. For the price, you can’t beat it! We will stay here again! Beach is less than 100 ft away!

It was a cold Christmas in the beach. However it was a short walk. The house is right across from an access to the beach.

Vacation 2024

Awesome location to the beach! Awesome neighborhood! The city offered limited food restaurants and additional activities. With the limited activities, I would suggest an upgrade for TVs and selections for local TV. We had a ball and I would recommend and come back again.

Perfect Month Away

This house is in such a great location. Easy walks to the beach, easy access to amenities and downtown. And the home was lovely. At times, we had 4 adults and 3 kids, but it never felt crowded. It’s an older home, and we enjoyed the charm. Jerry was wonderful with communication. We spent a month here, and it was incredible from beginning to end. We definitely hope to go back.

Amazing Hosts

Jerry and Lauren were extremely welcoming and very responsive to our needs and questions. We traveled with our two dogs, and loved that there was a fenced in area so we could let them off leash. The house is located across the street from the beach making it convenient to go to the beach multiple times per day. The house was well stocked with items you need, and it may have been the cleanest property we have ever rented.

The “house” appeared to be an old modular or mobile home. The “new floors and counter tops” should have indicated that part of the counter top was replaced by wood, which was not professionally done and was not sealed. The rest of the counter top was a white tile, vinyl or laminate. The flooring was only replaced in one area of the rental. The baseboards were filthy with dirt/grime and there were multiple places throughout the rental that need updating/ fixing. The air unit in the living room was broken, which the host knew but did not fix. We were told not to open the sliding door in the master bedroom- it must have issues. The place was so hot when we arrived we went out and bought two fans to cool down the living room and bedroom (we left those for future guests). We were also told not to park in the driveway (except for loading/unloading) as the host parks 2 boats behind the house and needs “easy access”, so we parked behind the house during our stay (the host did not take the boats out the entire week). We had to reach out to the host about access as we had not heard from him a few days before our trip. Overall it was a roof over our head but would never recommend it to anyone. The property is probably worth a lot more than the house.

Just beach

If you like to spend time on a beach, its perfect for you, its just a short walk.The house needs some improvements. Fence needs big improvements, its falling apart. Wooden steps outside are constantly wet and slippery, they dont have a gutter downspouts and all water from rain is going down on entrance steps.There is a grill but no propane tank, i was told that it will be provided but it never happened. Air-conditioning filter has to be changed the dust stacked from outside and its very noticeable. I was told that it will get changed but it never happened. Master bedroom toilet was running and making loud noises, we fixed the problem ourselves. My biggest problem was that there were no outlets in any of bathrooms. If you need to shave with electric, use waterflash for your teeth, do your hair, etc . you are out of luck.There was plenty of toilet paper but we just had half roll of paper towels. We had ants in smaller bathroom.

Great location but needs TLC

This cottage was found clean and for the most part comfort. The king size mattress is supportive and there are new kitchen appliances although a few burners did not work. Lots of hot water. The real problem is with the foundation that is cracked causing the back floors to be uneven. Additionally, the outside fenced area for our pup is rough with a rotting wood fence that could be easily blown over with a strong wind. The area along side of the house needs a serious clean up. We can see where the owner attempted to make improvements and as past rental property owners we can recognize his efforts but there are areas that need attention, the problem area with the foundation being a serious issue. Not sure what can be done there. Other problems were several of the windows have cracks and the screens are ripped. Unacceptable. The location was amazing which made up for less then a desirable accommodation. The beach is vast and an easy walk. The historic area has many restaurants and shops and we enjoyed exploring. Amelia Island surprised us with much to do even in January.

The property was super close to the beach, perfect walking distance. The property was very clean but it had a faint odor of old mildew. I wish there had been more extra blankets or throws, the air conditioner worked perfectly and after being at the beach all day, the nights got chilly. Our host was wonderful, and check in/out was super easy.

Great location and place. It's a beach cottage so we didn't expect luxury but either way it was perfect to take residence for the week, cook meals and spend time with family. Great communication.
