Welcome to your cozy animal-themed getaway just minutes from Downtown Jacksonville! This cheerful 3-bedroom, 1-bath home comfortably sleeps six, featuring a queen bedroom, a bunk room, and two twin beds—perfect for families, friends, or work crews. The living area offers comfy seating and a large smart TV, while the full kitchen is stocked with essentials and coffee for your mornings. The spacious yard provides a bit of outdoor space (not fully fenced), and there’s plenty of parking for multiple vehicles—great for families arriving separately or crews bringing trucks. Laundry facilities are shared but complimentary. You’ll also find shelves of books throughout the home; if you start one and don’t finish before checkout, take it with you and pass it along to a lending library someday. With its playful animal décor, comfortable layout, and thoughtful touches, this spot makes for a fun and easy Jacksonville stay.

This is a host who NEVER disappoints!! My family and I stayed at one of his other listings and it was amazing so I knew this was going to be the same experience! Located on the Westside of Jacksonville means you will be close to everything and more! The animal theme in the house was great, hot hot water for the shower and comfy bed! Not overly decorative but felt like home. I could go on forever but if you're looking for comfort, safety and relaxation this is your home! Thank you Geoff and Kat for a great stay!!!
They’ve thought of everything you might need and have your comfort in mind! Feels like home!
