We went to see the Night of Lights and we had hoped to see other sites however it was very cold and the TV was an issue we tired to work through with the host but I felt the TV may need updating ..the host was very attentive and willing to help however we had pups and did not want non familiar people in the house during our absence as we wanted to explore.I would also recommend a Keurig coffee pot for contend additional blankets for the cold temperatures..

Great weekend retreat!!
House was clean, comfy and well stocked with everything we needed for a last minute trip to St. Augustine! Loved that it was about a mile from where all the fun was happening. Thank you!
