Enjoyed our stay immensely. The home was well appointed with everything you could possibly need even including beach chairs and towles, an ice cream machine ect...The property was so nice many times we chose to hang out there as opposed to going out on a tour or event.Would 100% recommend this property and host.

Great place!

We really enjoyed our time at this place. The lake view looking out of the front windows is beautiful. It was really nice to walk downtown and also around the lake. We enjoyed the pool in the early evenings. The property was very clean and very nice. Beds were comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Our week went by too fast.

We loved it! The house was Super nice. Would have given it a 5 star but just a little disappointed in the pool. The pump never came on!! Just didnt seem real clean. I have a pool and my pump comes on at 8:30 and stays on until 7:30pm. And we did not witness this pumpcome on at all. And sometimes we were until 1 am. But other than that it was very nice.

Beautiful house close to St Augustine

My husband and I stayed in this lovely house. It has a great pool and the front overlooks a lake. The porch in the front is gorgeous with beautiful chairs to relax in. A great place for your morning coffee or eve glass of wine. The only drawback is the surrounding neighborhood. Some beautiful houses and some very old and in need of repair. Overall it was fine. Very convenient to St Augustine city center..

Perfect host, location and home. We took family from England to Nights of Lights. We walked to town and met neighbors along the way. Our host called me regarding the back door electric lock and offered to come right out. Top notch

Great home, walking distance to downtown St Augustine

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is perfect and between the walking distance to town and the lakefront view it's a terrific location. We didn't get to use the pool because the air temp was a little cold this weekend. Looks nice.
