    We are so happy that we found this house. It was perfect for our family! The house and property are well maintained and beautiful. The owner made sure the house was stocked with everything you needed and very accessible to answer any questions quickly. We are sure to come back in the future and honestly we are going to miss the lake.

    Nicole’s place was perfect for the Thanksgiving week with family. It was clean, spacious, very well stocked, and located on a beautiful spot. My husband took out the kayak a few times. He tried fishing off of the dock a couple of times and we enjoyed coffee on the screened porch every morning with a peaceful view. The kitchen was so well stocked - cooked and served a full thanksgiving meal. Highly recommend!

    My wife and I stayed here with our two small dogs. This property is close to perfect. Beautiful location, well maintained house, lake view, and close enough to “everything else” when needed, with accommodations for four legged friends! If you are planing or require a southern JAX visit, we highly recommend!! Thank you, Nicole!

    Picture-perfect home and property that accommodated seven of us (5 adults/2 kids) perfectly. We felt right at home from the moment we stepped through the door. The home was very clean and had everything we needed and more. Nicole was an excellent host as well. My only real critique is that it was difficult to get my wheelchair-bound stepdad down into the yard and to the lake due to the grass/soft sand. He had absolutely no trouble navigating the house, however, as it is truly handicap accessible inside. We were extremely grateful for that. If fortune allows, we will be back for another stay!
