Cozy Charming Cottage ! 2 Min to Beach 3 min walk to Restaurants & Shops

First of all I don’t complain or write negative reviews. This is a first. After all of the issues were staying at this property I requested a 20% discount for our stay and they only agreed to 10%. The house was listed at 12 occupants at the time of booking and when we arrived at the property, we found only room for eight people. Inside the property, the occupancy note said eight people in the main house. Because they knew we had 10 people and only 8 sleeping spots I wanted 20% back. The host changed the occupancy notes from 12 to 8 immediately after I brought this up to her and still kept her price the same . There are many issues with the property that have been in negative reviews for at least 2 years and they have not been fixed. The front door lock did not work. The outdoor shower had broken plumbing causing it to spray you with scalding hot water at knee level.The water in the main shower is backwards. I know that there is a sign on the wall that explains that the hot is cold and the cold is hot but no matter what you did you either got a luke warm shower or scolding top shower no in between. When arriving the dumpster on the side of the house was overflowing and had not been emptied in a while. We left the house in much better shape. I suggest that the host fix the issues with the plumbing and to clean the place up a little bit, including the back tiki hut that was not usable due to garbage and other clutter. The pictures are super inaccurate of what you pay for.

We enjoyed the quietness of the home. It made our trip very enjoyable.

House is barely 1 block from the beach and 2 blocks from 3rd St (which is like a main st). Rooms were clean and kitchen had everything

Great house and had a wonderful time! Thank you look forward to staying with you again.

Responsive host, amazing location. Great outdoor back yard space (fire pit, patio furniture, grill, heated shower). Well stocked kitchen (hurray for lots of utensils!). Single story with one step to front porch- very easy access for mobility restricted individuals. Cozy and charming, as described!

Location is what makes this cottage receive a good rating. Steps away from the beach. Beautiful beach. House and backyard are in need of some attention. No beach chairs, which was an inconvenience for us. There is a pile of old rusty, broken chairs in the backyard that need to be taken to the dump. It certainly did not match the photos advertised.Beds were comfortable. Supplies were sparse. We were only given a half a roll of paper towels, and a few rolls of toilet paper for a four day stay. No wine glasses. Again, it was comfortable enough, and you can’t beat the location. With a little extra TLC, the place could get better ratings.

Our group of four absolutely loved staying in this cottage. We all agreed we would be happy to live there . While the cottage initially looked like it could use some maintenance on the outside - it didn’t. It’s a true old Florida cottage.Inside it’s so well decorated and comfortable. The beds were comfy, bathrooms good and well stocked with clean towels. There were plenty of beach towels, too.And a short walk past one condo, then across a street to a beach park directly by the ocean. We got up early to see the sunrise on the Atlantic. Also many good restaurants nearby. We especially loved The Dockside (on the river) and Metro Diner. We sure hope to return someday! Thank you for a great stay !

Great stay!

Our family of five stayed for a long weekend to visit family in the Jacksonville area. This was a great place to stay. Close to restaurants, easy access to nearby attractions/day trips and great location to the beach. Already planning to book again.

This was a fantastic place to stay! Everything we needed was there. Location to the beach was great, loved the back yard!

Stayed here for my daughter’s graduation celebration, the house was well equipped to handle our family and the back courtyard was perfect for our family gathering, provided plenty of shade for everyone to sit outside. Loved being so close to the beach. Would love to stay here again and recommend it

We had an amazing time enjoying each other in his intimate setting along with the opportunity to watch the sunrise on the beach. Definitely will return over and over again.

Comfortable accommodationsNice extra was plenty of beach towels available Great location!

Cottage perfect for family needing separate spaces with doors and was not the typical open plan. It was perfect. Very tastefully decorated home that is obviously loved and cared for by owner. Also, stocked with essentials generously. Jean is a fabulous hostess.

We have used this little blue cottage as our home away from home for several years now, and we're heartbroken when we miss an opportunity to stay there. The host is very kind and accommodating, the property is superb, the location is divine, and I start counting the days until next year's return the moment I leave. 5 star, hands-down!

First, front door very difficult to learn the trick to getting in. Same with round shower water control. Should be directions posted to indicate how to operate. No plug in same bathroom. 1934 vintage home and architecture interesting. Definitely needs updating inside and out. Stocked well and wonderful location to beach. Great beach area and very quiet. Jean was very responsive to our needs.. Than you Jean.

Close to a beautiful park next to beach.

What a quaint old cottage with original old charm. Loved the outside area in back to relax at end of day. Easy to beach. Quite happy.

We celebrated my mom’s 80th birthday. All 12 of us that were able to make it had a blast hanging out.

We absolutely loved our stay. Second time staying in this cottage with all my kids, plus our dogs. This beautiful cottage is conveniently located near grocery stores, restaurants and souvenirs shops. Location and beach access is perfect. Highly recommend
