CHARMING 2/2 COTTAGE JUST A SHORT WALK TO THE BEACH/PET FRIENDLY/ WIFI

Quaint and comfortable: 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom cottage available for rent for your vacation or get-away. Over 1100 sq. ft. of living area. Master bedroom has a queen size bed and a small flat screen tv. Guest bedroom has 2 twin beds. Each bedroom as it's own bath. Covered front porch, with a swing and porch furniture. As well as a private, screened in back porch that has a small dining table and chairs for your enjoyment. The kitchen is fully equipped with cookware, a coffee maker, dishes and flatware. All linens are provided as well as several beach towels.
The Cracker House is not your typical Florida beach house, a friend of ours from North Carolina, has said that it's a 'Mountain Home at the Beach". While the Cracker House is certainly not upscale, we think you will find it clean, comfortable, charming and in a very quite neighborhood, with friendly neighbors.
There are 2 grocery stores, just a short drive south on AIA, as well as numerous restaurants within walking distance from our cottage, to enjoy, if you don't feel like cooking.

PLEASE NOTE … STARTING IN 2023…PLEASE PROVIDE A COPY OF YOUR PHOTO ID AFTER YOUR BOOKING HAS BEEN CONFIRMED/ACCEPTED. YOU CAN EITHER EMAIL OR TEXT IT TO ME, BUT I MUST RECEIVE IT WITHIN 48 HOURS OF ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR BOOKING.
THANK YOU,

The house was perfect for our stay. On a quiet street and a short walk to beach access and restaurants. Very comfortable for us (2) and nicely equipped. Not your typical beach bungalow but very nice, cozy and clean. Would highly recommend and would return!

Wonderful

The property was great… Just as it states. The home was clean and fully stocked with anything you would ever need. The beds were very comfortable. It was only a block and a half to the beach. We toured around Saint Augustine looking at all the sites going to the Fort and St. George Street. We had a great time. Loved that it is pet friendly also.. we would definitely stay here again.

Great house and great location

The house was beautiful inside and out. The landscaping around the house is incredible with many flowers and beautiful plants and trees. It is a small oasis. When we were at the house we spent most of our time on the back porch, deck or on the front porch. Lots of songbirds in the trees in the moring.The house is on a dead end street away from the busy main street which keeps the area area quiet. At the same time it is still a short walk to the beach and restaraunts and is a short drive or bike ride to the nearby state park.Historic Saint Augustine is also a short drive away. We hope to make it back to the area and woud rent this house again if it is availbale.

Cottage Review

Very pleased with the property. Tastefully decorated living room and porch. Spacious, nice to have two bathrooms.Kitchen drawers could use replacing. Houses are close together so the neighbors can be heard if they are outside. Also, Next Door did landscaping half the time we were there, using heavy equipment like a backhoe leaf, blowers, etc.. I guess there’s nothing that the owner can do about that. Love the fact that it was so close to the beach. We were able to drive a car straight across A1A, park and walk to the beach just a few more feet. We would rent this house again. Very reasonable rate.

Cozy home in perfect location

Really enjoyed the our two weeks stay. The cottage is well equipped and also dog friendly. The host was super responsive and effectively took care of a Comcast Internet issue right away. The short walk to a fabulous beach and great restaurants with dog-friendly outdoor spaces were greatly appreciated.

Relaxing time!

Quaint cottage, just right for our stay. We appreciated that it was not the overdone "fish and shells" theme. Mostly quiet street, winter a great time to visit. We enjoyed the lush plantings and the fact we don't have to bring linens.Since there is a full size washer and dryer, we brought packed lightly! Thank you Pat for sharing your cottage!

Perfect Place for Pet Friendly Family

This is a perfect property for a pet friendly family and highly recommend to anyone, even without pets. The house was very clean and had all the amenities for our family's 9 day stay. It sits on a quiet block just across the Blvd and the beach, so also a great place for beach goers. The host, Pat, was very accommodating and even reached out during our stay for any additional needs. The price is more than fair for what you get and it's location. We visit SAB often and look forward to staying here again.
