Sugar Magnolia House-Romantic Historic Home

Nice and quite place

Everything was amazing through and through

The home is an absolute dream! It felt like I was sharing all of the nostalgia of visiting my grandparents' home as a child with my 21-year old son. He was taken aback with the history and splendor of it all. The record player and broad collection of vinyls were an unexpected delight, providing hours of entertainment while we relaxed as a family in the parlor. The fact that this home and all its interiors are made available for anyone to enjoy is truly a gift!The house is clean, the beds are impressively comfortable, and the upgraded HVAC systems allowed for complete comfort inside. It is well appointed with everything we needed to feel like a home away from home. I highly recommend dining at Othello less than a block away from the house, shopping for groceries & staples at Springfield Superette two blocks away, and exploring the revitalized Springfield Main Street district for food, entertainment & shops, also within walking district. Melody was very welcoming and responsive, and we can't thank her enough for providing this unexpected, added joy to our Jacksonville trip!

My friend and I had an absolutely lovely time in this charming home for a weekend reunion/getaway. The decor was lovely, so many inspired touches. All pictures accurately reflect the property. We appreciate all the indoor and outdoor seating areas. We made light use of the kitchen but found all we needed. The beds were very comfy and the neighborhood was quiet. Thanks for the perfect setting for a relaxing vacation!

We were in the city to attend our Summer RC. Because l am directionally challenged, l looked for the closest place and found it with Vrbo . We were very pleased with the accommodations. And the attention to historicity of the house and its furnishings with all the modern conveniences we've come to love. . We look forward to our stay next year if once again we are assigned Jacksonville as our site. Thanx Melody for all of your gracious responses to our inquiries. The Copeland's.....till next time.

This historic house was perfect for my sister's surprise murder mystery party. I didn't have to decorate anything. Not pictured is the dining room that seats 6. We pulled up two extra chairs and everyone sat comfortably. Everyone was in character and we felt transported back in time. Clean up and close out was very straight forward. The house was the key to the party success and I am so glad I found it.

The home is absolutely beautiful!! We will staying there again.

The Sugar Magnolia House is a wonderful and unique turn of the century home to transport you back to the 1920's. Even though all the furnishings and decorations have the vintage charm, the home is yet furnished with the modern conveniences of air conditioning and wifi. From the large front porch to the extensive backyard, this space can be used for any family or occasion, big or small. The host was very accomodating and awesome. I highly recommend this getaway home!

This was a visit to a friend in treatment at Mayo. She joined us for the weekend at the home of

We stayed here while we were in town for a speech and debate tournament being held in downtown Jacksonville. Was a perfect location and not far from the church. Loved the house. Beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. Was like stepping back in time.

Very pleased, excellent property, thank you.

Great location. Adorable house. Spacious. Perfect vacation for us to visit with the family.

The house was amazing! Location was wonderful. The beds were so comfortable. Thank you for allowing my family to enjoy this wonderful place.

I cannot express how totally wonderful our experience was... From our wonderful host, to the atmosphere of this stunning house, our dreams came to life!

The stay was great and Melody was the perfect host. We enjoyed the location, warmer evenings on the front porch. The house is comfortable yet elegant and so accommodating! We will be back!

Love this beautiful home. The home has a wonderful 1920s feel. The house was clean, the kitchen had everything needed to make a meal and bed’s were comfortable. Plus plenty of towels in each room. The historical home is about 2 miles away from the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena which was perfect for our trip. The lovely front porch with swing and the sitting area in the back yard make a great place to enjoy your morning coffee which was provided.

Had a fantastic time staying at this beautiful historical home. Great location for the game! Melody was a wonderful host.

We had an excellent stay in Jacksonville with family. Attended the Packers - Jaguars game which added to the fun. Home was a true Victorian experience.

Such a wonderful host and a wonderful home!

This place was great!! Easy check in & great communication!!! Held our group well for a short labor day weekend trip to the zoo. We so enjoyed the backyard grill & front porch. Great neighborhood & we just loved the house. The location was 10 mins from everywhere The wwanted to go

I was so impressed with Sugar Magnolia House! These beautiful pictures don't do justice to the home's raw potential. I am local so I will absolutely come again! It was the perfect location for my birthday murder mystery dinner party and all of my guests were so impressed and amazed at the home's beauty. The home was fully stocked with everything I could need, toilet paper, plenty of towels, pots, pans, and even seasonings. The ice maker was a game changer and saved me so much time.

I stayed at Sugar Magnolia House for a weekend with some friends for a girl’s trip. The property owner was so kind and helpful. The house was decorated beautifully and the historic notes were preserved really well. We loved exploring everything and enjoyed time in what we coined the “red room.” So fun!

Beautiful home in the Springfield neighborhood with so much charm and character. Close to restaurants. Walkability of the neighborhood is excellent even in the Florida summer as the streets are lined with majestic oaks. Melody is an A+++ host. We will definitely be back.

Great house with a lot of history. You could spend hours looking at the historic pieces throughout the house. Beds were super comfortable, great host, very responsive. Would definitely come back next time we are in town.
