The townhome was beautiful, had everything we needed, very clean and in a beautiful neighborhood right on the river. Loved how it was conveniently located in the center of Jax to get anywhere we needed to go. Only con was the bed in the master bedroom, hard memory foam, although nothings like your own bed! We love our stay and it was perfect for our family!
The place was awesome. Wonderful neighborhood! Very peaceful and beutiful! Going back next year. Koodos to the owner. Really awesome place!
The home was great. Neighbors very friendly and host made sure to reach out with questions or suggestions on multiple occasions. Enjoyed my stay.
We had a great experience here. The house looks exactly as pictured. There plenty of household items supplied by the hosts (pots, pans, kettle, utensils, toiletries). It was nice because we didn’t really have to run out to grab anything for our stay. The host was nice and you can expect regular communication leading up to your stay. We didn’t really need to reach out for anything during our stay, but I am sure if needed they would have been helpful and quick to respond. We booked for a beach trip, and the closest beach is 35-40 minutes away. This was not a surprise for us going in. I still would recommend this place for those looking to book for a beach trip because planning out your trips to the beach and other sites (St. Augustine, Gainesville, etc.) was relatively convenient given they are all roughly the same distance away—the house was a pretty central location for traveling to all of the popular stops in upper Florida. Note that there are a few places to eat and grab groceries pretty close to the house, but if those don’t fit your diet or tastes well, you should expect a 15-20 minute drive for other options given the location and Jacksonville traffic. This house is apart of multi-home unit. You will only have another tenant on one side and we didn’t really hear them. The most restricting aspect was the parking—the unit is only allotted 1 space, but there are two guest spaces shared by all 4 units. We had to park one car on the street a few times (we took 3 cars).
Easy access Townhouse with parking. Excellent location in quiet residential community. Very clean. Nice amenities. Comfortable beds.
Location was great for us, we have family in the same neighborhood. The rental was clean . The only issue I had was the hot water in the sink upstairs took a very long time to get hot, and we ran out of hot water when we took our shower. Must be a small water heater.
There's only one thing I could complain about, so I'll say it first to get it out of the way. The hot water tank is small and you will run out of hot water by the time you finish your shower. It wasn't a problem for us, as we were never all getting ready at the same times, but if you're going somewhere you'll need to plan it out just right. Other than that this place was great. The host's have gone over and beyond with stocking everything you would need and have included things like toothbrushes incase you've forgotten yours. The beds were super comfy and the tvs were great. We would definitely stay here again. And can't wait to come back in the future.
