Wife and I stayed here for two weeks, 10/17 - 10/31. This place is one of the best places I have stayed - it's small but mighty. It's just a short walk across the road to beach access 10 (not to be confused with 10s). I can actually throw a football from the front yard onto the sand. The view from the porch is fantastic with sunrise views.I'm a yard guy and the front yard is immaculate. The deck has a grill (which we used a few times) two chairs and a full patio set with umbrella and chair pads, all clean and very sturdy - none of that rickety thin plastic stuff.The house itself is exactly as described in the listing - no surprises at all. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking and eating utensils, the island is huge with stools tucked under, all furniture was solid and very nice. Appliances are updated and fridge has a functioning ice maker for those evening happy hours.Two full very clean bathrooms (one in the primary) on the smaller side but not uncomfortably small. This is expected with a house this size and what we anticipated. Water pressure is great in both showers - important to me.Two bedrooms are very clean and nicely furnished the master is much bigger than I thought it would be. I can't say enough good things about this place. We were so happy and comfortable here. Take my word for it, book your next stay here, you won't be disappointed.The host, Sabrina is great; very responsive and accommodating.

Perfect Beach Getaway

We love this little house! We will be back! Approximately 100 steps to the sand. Located right across from beach access, quiet, and uncrowded. House is so nicely decorated, very clean and comfortable. House is well stock with anything you might need. Just felt like home away from home. Really enjoyed being able to go right to out door shower when coming up off beach. Beautiful shower setup! I definitely recommend this home. Property mgr is so very nice and easy to communicate with. Thank you Sabrina for sharing your heaven on earth beach cottage!!

House Near the Beach

Super convenient to the beach and downtown activities, which is where our family spends the majority of our time in Amelia Island. Owner was excellent to deal with and the listing was accurate to what we found when we arrived. First time we were this close to the beach, and it saved us a lot of time in travel to and from each day. Excellent vacation and this location was a big part of that result!!!

Great location, beach and amenities

The beach cottage was absolutely lovely. Directly across the street from the beach. Both bedrooms and baths were fitted with nice linens. The kitchen was well stocked for 4 guests. The deck on the front of the house has very comfy chairs and a lovely table wth an umbrella. It was great sitting out there for drinks and dinner. We used the gas grill twice too. The property manager Jean was available and responsive to our needs. Since she was traveling her backup David helped us out with the TV. (Us old folks are technological challenged)!! David gave us great restaurant ideas and did not steer us wrong. The shed behind the house was filled with beach equipment. Some of the chairs were quite old but serviceable. The beach was very private for only the residents in the neighborhood so we felt like the rich and famous. We will certainly rent again in the future and tell our Ocala friends all about the beach cottage.

Wonderful location

The location of the property was perfect. We enjoyed our time on the beach, Fort Clinch and old town area. The rental property was adequate. Furnishings were worn but adequate, kitchen set up was adequate. The overall property lacked the special touches I look for in a rental property. Vacation homes should make you feel special. I would not rent this property again.
