Duplex delight w/gators & coffee

Hi!!! I tend to work a lot and when I’m not working I try to travel as much as possible. I began staying in airBNBs years ago. I absolutely loved meeting the hosts and hearing their story. Now ~ the opportunity for me to provide a comfortable and simple space to welcome others is truly dreamy. I hope you choose Gators & Coffee when you come to Jacksonville NC.

While on the west coast I experienced AirBNB and VRBO stays and found I enjoyed them verse hotels. The space "Gators & Coffee" has been completely renovated. My hope is that others who enjoy contributing to the local economy as well as experiencing different travel spaces will choose my space to visit the eastern side of NC. Now I know the biggest question is ~ why Gators & Coffee? I did not believe those that told me alligators existed in my back yard body of water. In the past year, I've experienced hearing the gator splashing and seeing the top of a gator travel in that very water. I did some research and realize they are more nocturnal creatures and that makes sense because I did hear and see him in the later evening and early morning. In the early mornings, I have an egret that will visit occasionally which I've included in the pictures. During the summer months, you can catch turtles bathing in the sun when the water levels are lower. Coffee seems to be an obvious one, but I found not all AirBNB and VRBO hosts included a means to make a cup of coffee. My decision to make a full coffee bar is in part of those experiences.

All amenities are provided for guests while they are staying at Gators & Coffee. I generally try to stock snacks and ALWAYS some form of chocolate treat. Please be mindful that I'm not a hotel and don't have unlimited resources. I only ask you choose not to take unused items as souvenirs or because they have been provided. Also, I want to encourage all guests to respect the space and tidy up along the way so I can continue to keep the cleaning fees at a minimum.
