San Marco Retreat - Perfect for families!

Summary:

Spend a night or a month in this cute bungalow in the Miramar area! This house is a short 5 min drive to "downtown" San Marco's shops and restaurants, a 10 min drive to TIAA Bank Field, a 15 min drive to the St John's Town Center, and a 20 min drive to the Mayo Clinic & Ponte Vedra! It is perfect for close friends, family (and pets) to enjoy a short (or long!) stay.



The Space:

This house is a four bedroom home. The main bedroom with ensuite bathroom is located on one side of the house. The remaining three rooms share a bathroom on the other side of the house.



Please note: the 4th bedroom (twin-over-twin trundle bed) is a sunroom and does not have a door.



The Neighborhood:

Surrounding our home, there is a variety of dining options where guests can explore and find restaurants for everyone to enjoy. If you're looking to enjoy a nice cup of coffee, wine or delicious food you're just a few steps away to the Southern Grounds. Near our Fresh Bungalow you can find what are considered some of the best restaurants in Jacksonville which includes Taverna, The Bearded Pig, Matthews, Town Hall, V's Pizza or Rue Saint Marc or for those home chefs you can swing by a fantastic local butcher at Clines Custom Meats.



Getting Around:

Located off the beaten path just south of San Marco, Miramar is a neighborhood with a unique history and atmosphere of its own.



While in town, be sure to visit the ORIGINAL Metro Diner (3/4 mile north of you), which is a chain now with dozens of restaurants located in 12 states.



Additionally, San Marco, one of Jacksonville's cutest, most walkable neighborhoods is just a 5 minute drive or a 20 minute walk north of you. Its main commercial area, San Marco Square is filled with boutiques, restaurants, bars, and even a 2 screen independent movie theater and a playhouse! It is the perfect location for an evening stroll while supporting local businesses.



This property is a short drive from downtown Jacksonville as well as San Marco Square. Stay here with family and friends for the annual Florida - Georgia game!



Other Things to Note:

To help ensure a smooth, secure, and enjoyable stay for all guests, please review the following important information before booking:
