Jacksonville, Florida Vacation
The sheets/comforter was dirty, the pool wasn't clean, the jacuzzi wasn’t filled up (the owner had to come to the home on two of our vacation days), the freezer was left open which caused water on the floor, the house air wasn’t on before arriving (turning it down to get cold made it freeze up, so we had to sit in heat), the upstairs water wouldn’t get hot, and we didn’t have WiFi on the downstairs living room television.

Perfect Riverside Getaway
We recently stayed at this wonderful property by the river, and it exceeded our expectations! The location is absolutely stunning, providing a serene and peaceful environment. We spent hours just enjoying the view and the tranquility of the water. The property itself is well-maintained and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay. The owner was incredibly helpful and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

Amazing Italian Villa!
House was stunning! Pool was great. The gardens back to the river dock were an adventure. Did see dolphins. Location within 45 minutes of airport, several beaches and St Augustine. Our whole family celebrated a 50th anniversary and all ages had a great time. The host was very responsive, all features of the house are top of the line and our stay was just like being in Europe.

Pictures are out totally outdated!!
Would not stay again….the pictures are clearly outdated!!! Pool was green/slimy clearly not heated!! Hot tub water was sulfur smelling and stagnant. The koi pond had no koi, was disgusting with nothing but insects hovering over and in it. Landscaping has not been maintained…weeds coming thru stamped pads, over grown as you attempt to walk to dock. Fire pit is full of yard debris with weeds growing in it. Patio furniture was broke, ripped. There was not enough for the amount of guests. The stove is still broke requiring you to light with lighter, dryer broke, host never responded to any of our concerns. We had to contact him for WiFi password/pool/hot tub instructions. There was no welcome packet with any info about property. The beds had wrappers/garbage under them. Dirty sheets on upper coaches. Counters were dirty, balconies had matches and cigar butts, wasp nests galore. Host never responded to our concerns. We had to hang dry our clothes outside to dry due to broke dryer. Much of the decor was broke and either glued back together or simply placed back together. We booked out in October for the whole week, had to hound host day before for checkin process. Host simply sent door code nothing else. The owner needs to do a complete walk through inside and out. He shouldn’t be able to post or advertise what’s listed. We were unable to enjoy the heated/clean pool we all thought we were going to.

Stunning Palatial Home
My Family members who traveled from New Orleans, LA and Jackson, SC to attend my daughter’s wedding at Epping Forest Yacht and Country Club were amazed and delighted to stay in this magnificent home. It was beautiful inside and the courtyard was stunning. The master bed and bath on the first floor was so stately. Highly recommend!

Golf House
Our annual (8 golfers) golf trip took us to Jacksonville this year...3 rounds of golf (TPC Sawgrass Dye's Valley, Punta Vedra Inn & Club, Deerwood CC) all about 30 minutes from the house. Also attended Georgia-Florida football game on Saturday...stadium is very close to the house. The house worked out great for our needs. It would have been nice if the pool was heated, however.

Beautiful home
Spent the weekend away with friends and family for our friends 40th birthday. This house was absolutely stunning. The kids felt like they were in a mansion. They all had a blast. The pool and garden on the river was my favorite. I could sit outside all day, there only a couple small issues. Nothing major the Internet upstairs wasn’t connecting For the kids to watch TV but we ended up making it work. Everything was fully stocked and the house was clean upon arrival. The gas oven knobs didn’t work to well they fell off a couple times might want to check the range out. Thank you for letting us borrow your home for the weekend we enjoyed every minute.

The Manse on the River
The property manager was very responsive to our needs, i.e. the microwave did not work the first day we arrived and the property manager brought another one over the very next day. Additionally, we requested more towels and he also brought them over right away. The property is clean with very beautiful gardens. It was the perfect place for our family to gather to celebrate my Husband's 75th Birthday!!!!!

This house is incredible and has everything you need. From the dock hanging over the river, to the fully loaded kitchen, and much more, this house makes you feel special. The older theme really makes this place feel warm and comfortable. Plenty of space for 8 guys on our yearly golf trip. The pool and hot tub are awesome. Would head back here in a heartbeat if I ever return to Jacksonville. Thanks Gene!

Golf Trip in Jacksonville
A group of 8 of us came down to Florida in February to play some golf at local courses. We had the pleasure of staying at Gene's house for President's Day weekend. Absolutely fantastic spot. Fit 8 adult men comfortably and the kitchen area was the primary hangout spot. Just a great spot to watch some TV, have a few cocktails, cook some good food and share a bunch of laughs. Thank you Gene for opening your property to us. We will be back!

Wedding stay!
Great time at this really unique home! We rented this house for family and friends to use for a week for our Navy son’s wedding. There is a king master suite on the first floor along w a second room w a double bed. Upstairs there is a single twin bedroom and another king master suite, and three queen bedrooms. There is also another full sitting room with a large screen TV and bar area on the second floor. We really enjoyed this house, quiet neighborhood, the hot tub was great, the pool was too cold for me, but it was March. FYI the best way to communicate w the owner is through the VRBO app.

Willing to give 3 stars because the house did look like the pictures however, the jacuzzi tub in the master wasn't working or if it was there were no direction to tell us how to work it...we had several issues with the cable and internet in the house(which only got resolved in the livingroom after a whole day) kids with no internet....horrible when everything they have run off of it, there were atleast 2-4 wasp nest on every balcony(told owner and noone came to fix it like we were told) beautiful kitchen but the stove had to be lit with a lighter each time used....there was items in the kitchen that were expired...found one from 2006 (dont worry i threw it away)...owner never followed through on the wasp nest, internet and t.v...beds slept really good though but for the amount of money we shouldnt have to go a whole day without watching anything

Family Reunion
If you are wondering, yes, the house and property definitely match the pictures shown. We were able to host a family reunion and celebration of my grandmothers 87th birthday surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, with those from out-of-state staying at the property. The house and property are spacious, clean, and stocked with all amenities and more as if visiting someones house. The pier is peaceful and allows those early risers to see a beautiful sunrise (or sunset) while awaiting the dolphins who swim past every morning. The fishing was also a success. The property is family owned and family maintained and they monitor all gatherings by renters to ensure the gatherings are appropriate for a family home and neighborhood.

Wonderful home and great stay
The home was beautiful and included everything we needed for a 3 night stay. We had three families and there was plenty of room for everyone and the house contained everything we needed. We enjoyed the pool very much, as well as the view from the private dock on the river - there were always dolphins playing near by and we also saw a big cruise ship (without passengers of course) sail by. Gene is very responsive and friendly, and made the stay very enjoyable. Looking forward to coming back in the future!
