Lovely location, looks newly updated. We had a great time!
My family and I had a great time enjoying your home before and after venturing out to St. Augustine. The location is a prime spot for the downtown area for local shops, restaurants, bars. I would definitely stay here again as our host was responsive and accommodating. The floors were a little dirty in the joke but that didn’t deter any of us from having a great time. We would definitely stay here again. We love St Augustine.
The house is a short walk to everything downtown. Very clean and has everything you need. Mindy communicated constantly when needed and gives great suggestions.
