Tyler was an awesome host. Was there for every question that I had about the activities around the vacation rental. House was pristine everything as described. Had a wonderful time will be renting again from him in the near future.

New Years Getaway
We traveled down for the Gator Bowl Game and NYE Weekend! I loved the property, it was quiet and gorgeous views. Only 15 minutes from downtown or riverwalks. Everything was comfortable and clean. Plenty of cookware and dishes for eating in. We had 5 in our party (us parents, 2 - 15 yr old boys & my 12 yr old daughter) and we all slept comfortably and had plenty of room. I would definitely recommend and stay again if traveling to Jacksonville.

Beautiful cottage
We arrive after Hurrican Ian. The cottage was nice but due to flooding water pressure was low and road flooding due to high tide. Owner, compensate did compensate for day not used.
