Great location and clean!

This rental was in a great location close to a lot of restaurants and a quick walk to the beach. Rental was super clean! The tides get pretty low during low tide so have to be mindful if bringing a boat

Great house on a quiet street. The layout is perfect with 2 bedrooms and 2 living rooms. My daughter and I enjoyed our stay. The fenced back yard is great for the dogs. The house was clean and lots of basic items available to us (bath and beach towels, toilet paper, soaps, and detergents). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Fun Vacay!

The house is absolutely adorable and in the best location. You can hear the ocean from the porch and in the backyard you are right on the river. My husband and I spent a majority of our free time on the dock. Our only complaint was that the listing says it has a fenced in backyard which we were excited for as we brought our furpups but it's actually a partially fenced in backyard. It wasn't a dealbreaker though since our girls have excellent recall and are mostly afraid of water but I can see where it could be an issue if others aren't as trained or if you bring littles since the river drop off is right there. We will definitely be filing this booking away for future use!

Weekend getaway

Needed a weekend getaway and couldn't leave our dog; this dog friendly listing was perfect for us and our active pooch. Nice big fenced-in yard that she could run around and close enough to the beach. The house has plenty of amenities and beach supplies. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only suggestions are the sliding door needs grease on the track, better mats to catch the sand front and back doors.

Sunset Canal Cottage

Such a cute little place. Plenty of room to stretch out and we had everything we needed. The location was perfect as I was helping friends clear out a relative's house that was on the same street. While I wasn't there for a pleasure trip, I think it would have been a great place to use as home base. Nice quiet and safe neighborhood. Host immediately responded to any emails or texts sent.

Great home for my family holiday

This house was perfect for our two-week stay to visit my parents over the holidays. The house was spacious and has a great layout for families with kids. There are also board games and beach toys in the garage! The fenced yard is spacious and was great for our dog. The beds are very comfortable. Our only complaints were that the house wasn’t well stocked in a couple areas (no soap in the bathrooms, very limited supply of dishwasher pods & garbage bags for a 2-week stay) and the sliding door to the backyard needs to be repaired. But these were pretty minor annoyances in an otherwise wonderful stay. We would love to stay again when we next visit St Augustine!

Overall good experience

I will say that much of the silverware was fairly dirty with old food caked on them. There were dead ants here and there in the house. On Saturday, the bathroom in the twin bedroom began to smell like sewage and that smell permeated down the hall and into the kitchen, even though we followed the rules about only flushing toilet paper. We walked outside to where the septic tank is and the smell was also present outside. We used the toilet paper sparingly because there was only part of a single role in both bathrooms, so we ended up having to buy more. Also, there were no additional trash bags for the trash can other than the one that was in the trash can when we arrived. Beyond that, the only other issue we faced was that the futon in the Florida room had slats falling out of it, and we were unable to fold it from the bed position back into the couch position.

Awsome Family Trip.

Overall great experience. This is our second year staying at this exact house and we love it. Planning on making this an annual trip every year. The house is always clean and well organized. My kids overall loved being able to walk out the back door and fish. Looking forward to next year.
