GUEST ACCESS
Guests have private access to the entire second level of the house and private outdoor areas as well as free Wi-Fi, free parking, complimentary coffee and access to a laundry with a washing machine and dryer.
During your stay there may be guests that stay either above or below the house however you will always feel like you are the only ones there.
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
We strive to make sure your time at the house is relaxing and enjoyable and are always available during your stay if there are any questions or for any recommendations on what to do and see in the area.
NEIGHBORHOOD
The house is located along a rare stretch of beach on one of the last untouched inlets on the east coast just south of Crescent Beach and is the home of Fort Matanzas, the Matanzas National Seashore - a beautiful National Park.
It sits directly on Atlantic Ocean, but you can also see the Matanzas River, and the Intracoastal waterway. Since the house sits on this largely untouched area, the wildlife is amazing. Depending on the time of year Sea Turtles, Dolphins, and Manatees can be seen within the 25 miles of undeveloped state owned natural habitat.
The pristine water is one of the most unpolluted water areas in the state of Florida which brings fisherman and birders from all over to the beautiful sanctuary areas making it a truly unique place to stay.

If you like to cycle you are only a few miles from some of the best mountain biking trails and miles and miles of mostly shaded paved trails to explore.
Just under 14 miles away is the charming city of St. Augustine that offers unique scenery and history that sets the city apart from any other in the country.
This old city has a quaint feel with a big appeal where guests can stroll along the brick-lined streets and delight in the city's European flavor, with centuries-old buildings, horse-drawn carriages, hidden courtyards, and so much more. Saint Augustine has plenty of history to explore -- more than 450 years of it!
St. Augustine is known for its excellent restaurants serving a variety of dishes reflecting the town's multicultural heritage. Add to that the city's world-class art galleries, boutiques and outlet shopping, theater and live music, and 42 miles of gorgeous beaches, and it's easy to see why it is such a popular place to make long lasting memories.
GETTING AROUND
The best way to get around is with your own car or in a rental with free parking included with your stay.

Guests can also use rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft or call a taxi with cars available at all times of the day.

    The place was beautifully decorated and cozy, the view outside our back door was a private sandy beach and with lightly crashing waves, and anytime we had a question, our host answered us in minutes! We loved the serene peace and tranquility at Artist Haven, and recommend it to anybody who wants a little taste of heaven.

    Artist Haven is an amazing property. Steps from the beach and those million dollar views! Wow! The host has thought of everything and created several seating and lounging areas to enjoy the full beach experience. I can't wait to come back.

    The perfect getaway! The house had amazing views and the beach was steps away. We felt like we had our own private beach. Shopping, Restaurants and St. Augustine is within a few minutes of this property. We have already started planning our next trip back to Artist Haven!

    The Treehouse's Artists Haven, or middle floor, in Summer Haven is truly a special place with spectacular views in a cozy set up. Unit was well stocked, clean and comfortable. Host was responsive and helpful via phone. Will stay again in the future.

    The location of this property is literally worth a million dollars! Amazing! The family, including our dogs, had a great time beach combing and in the process we had the opportunity to rescue a wash backed green sea turtle. The property is great, well stocked, cozy and comfortable. The exterior and landscaping needs some TLC, but other than that we all had a great time and will be back soon!

    I stayed here with my brother and 80 year old mother. It was perfect! My mother was able to walk down the steps to be right on the beach, and when she didn’t feel like walking out, she enjoyed the ocean view and breeze on the deck. It was such a quiet, beautiful place to make memories with family. I am so thankful for our time here!
