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.

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.

Perfect place to stay for enjoying the Christmas lights and great food in St Augustine. Everything was in walking distance for us and it was great to escape back to the quiet, peaceful neighborhood of the “Uptown Shack”. Would highly recommend!

Perfect Rental Experience
I have rented many places over the years and this place takes the #1 spot. Melody and Alli were welcoming and happy to have us. The thought and attention to detail they put into this space and your rental experience is top notch. We were a short walk to the heart of historic St Augustine. We were able to walk to all attractions and restaurants. In a 4 night stay we only moved the car once and that was to drive to the lighthouse and beach on our last day.

Amazing!! Our stay was wonderful! The decor, attention to detail and the most caring hosts made our vacation so special. Uptown Shack so cleverly named is definitely a five star resort in a quiet setting while walking distance to St. Augustine sites. Thanks again for a great time.

Beautiful cozy modern retreat!
I booked the Uptown Shack as a surprise for my husband's birthday. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the historic downtown area. The hosts were amazing, providing great local recommendations. Every detail was very well thought out. The amenities, cozy atmosphere, and decor made it a perfect place to relax after a long day of walking. I highly recommend the lovely Uptown Shack and the to anyone visiting St. Augustine.

Wonderful place in great location
The “shack” is far from it! Spotless, sunny and comfortable, ii is the perfect place to lay your travel weary head. Short walk from everything in Old St. Augustine. And the special touches of home made cookies, copious bottled waters and other beverages, and even mini toiletries to fill in what you may have forgotten! So thoughtful, it is one of the most pleasant rentals we have ever stayed in-and we have stayed in MANY rentals. Thank you Melody and Ali!

The photos do not do Uptown Shack justice. We couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations. Every detail was addressed from linens to snacks to ease of access to everything downtown. I have already given the information to several of my friends and told them this place is over the top with amenities and upgrades. Thanks again for letting us visit.

Peaceful, quiet, welcoming, clean and beautiful.
Excellent comunication with the proerty manager, profesionalism, attention to detail and generosity. Great water pressure, quiet and peaceful, comfortable and clean. Nice air condition. Modern decor, high ceilings. The unit doesn't have a stove but who wants to cook when there are so many wonderful selections to eat out. Full amenities. Only 15 minute walk to the cetral town área, restaurants and coffee shops, attractions and shopping. The Property Manager gave us wonderful recommendations according to our dietary needs. Oh, so good! Parking available for your vehicle (1). Nice neighborhood! The directions can be a little intimidating, but thorough and easy to follow.

Short Stay
We stopped at the Uptown Shack for a.short two day stay. It was very clean, well stocked, and convenient to downtown restaurants and tour destinations. We were able to walk to everything except to thw lighthouse. Melody left a plate of delicious homemade cookies, gift card for a scoop of ice cream and coffee. She even had an umbrella and beach towels! Her restaurant suggestions were great. We ate at Columbia and The Floridian. Would highly recommend Uptown Shack.
