**The Sailor's Abode** Completely renovated, 3bd 2bth home. Fully furnished, non-smoking, located 1.2 miles from downtown, 3 miles from beaches, 5 miles from outlet malls. Sleeps 9 comfortably with a king size bed in master room, king size bed in guest room, and 2 full size (bunks) & single in 3rd bd. The mb has two sinks w/ jacuzzi tub & rainfall shower. Gb has shower/bath combo. Two car garage with washer/dryer. Secluded backyard area with fire pit and charcoal grill. 4 smart TV's throughout, high speed WiFi at 349 Mbps! We have plenty of on-sight parking in our oversized driveway that stretches around the back of the property. Other things to note
We are a short 5-15 walk to many shops and cafes. Historic downtown itself is a bit further, it is a 35-40 minute walk and we enjoy making the trip during the winter for the lights! If you prefer to drive, it will take you 5-10 minutes to get downtown depending on the traffic.
Please note - The Florida east coast railway runs behind our home and you may hear it several times a day. Due to our brick cement filled walls, and dual pane windows, we have never found this to be bothersome for our family.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Relax with a rainfall shower or stretch out in the jetted tub. The vacation home also includes a washer/dryer.

Cute house
Very cute house! Great location and accurate description. Host was great and communicated very well. Only silly little things could have help with our stay, more Tp and cleaning supplies. The floors looked tidy, but definitely needed to be mopped as our feet were black by the end of the day. The house was clean otherwise! We would definitely stay there again!

Great Location
Super close to downtown Saint Augustine. The neighborhood is a hit or miss. Pictures are accurate. Bedrooms, bath and main house all very clean. Kitchen could use a good scrub down. Be sure to bring paper towels and napkins, none are provided, also extra toilet paper if you stay awhile. Outdoor fire pit was awesome. Living room furniture is terribly uncomfortable, use extra bed pillows to soften it up. We had one problem with the plumbing and the host solved it promptly.

Awesome little hideaway
House is perfect to spend some time in St. Augustine. Close to everything. House was perfect with enough space for 7 adults. All sleeping in comfortable beds. House was clean and decorated just right. Fans in each bedroom was a nice touch. Train really isn't very loud and did not disturb us at all. Would recommend this place to all. Thanks Mike for opening up your home to us! We will be back for sure.

Great spot
Very clean house and conveniently located to downtown. We had a great experience and would absolutely book this property again. The turntable and records were a nice touch.
