Oceanside • Historical Shrimper's Family Beach House

What a great week! Loved having the beach so close. The house held our extended family with lots of bedrooms, living spaces and carport. Aloe and Renee kept us updated and answered questions very quickly.

Aloe and Renee were the best hosts. So easy to communicate with and so accommodating. The house was clean and super fun to stay in. There was so many fun things to look at in this house that we felt like it told a story. We loved that we could walk to the beach during the day and then down the street for dinner. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely amazing location! And the hosts are so incredibly nice! They were great to communicate with and provided great hospitality. The house is in a perfect location, just a few steps from the beach and a few steps from restaurants. Very dog friendly area and house. We had six adults and two dogs and there was plenty of room for everyone! The communal areas are great for large groups.

This house is so charming. It has character and eclectic style without feeling kitschy. And great location. I will return.

A cozy family home with a classic vintage feel. Very clean and the owner was easy to communicate with.

Cool, unique, home located close to everything we love! Great vacation spot, lots of memories were made! Thank you Aloe and Renée!

Great location, cool house, fantastic hosts!

Great host! The house was clean and very family oriented. Had games and kids toys. Loved the historical aspect of it. Felt very homey!

We had 12 days at this fun and unique property. Staying there is like immersing into a wonderful retro museum. The house and its contents are true to the 60’s-70s. The house is very well equipped in the kitchen. It has lots of room for privacy. The big porch facing the ocean is a great place to relax and listen to the ocean. The beach is right there - beautiful beach, clean, with no cars. We walked for 5 hours total in one direction. The host, Renee, was very attentive and checked in with us by text several times. She explained the history of the house - former owners were shrimping magnates in the area. We saw reference to them in several museums we visited. We truly enjoyed our stay. The house itself was a part of our vacation - it’s that unique. Others have mentioned - the ice cream store “Cone Heads” just 1/2 a block away from the house is fabulous! We actively compared other ice cream stores in Saint Augustine. Cone Heads really is the best. So nice to have it so close to the property. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance too. Beachcombers was our favorite. We hope to return some time in the future. Thanks for sharing this great property with the VRBO community.

We had to escape Hurricane Helene damage and the host was extremely flexible and kind.

What an honor to stay in this family house full of nostalgic family treasures and style. We loved that we could so easily wander to the beach. We enjoyed even the rainy days in the sunroom. Loved it!
