Reykjavik trip, wonderful neighborhood

Property was exactly as described, a cute house on a very bird-y marsh. Due to a hurricane earlier we were not able to use the screen porch, as the furniture had been flooded and was kinda muddy, but beyond that, everything was fabulous.

Lovely house in sweet neighborhood

The house is very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed staying there. Birders' paradise indeed -- beautiful herons and spoonbills were landing on the marsh outside the living room window and roosting at the Alligator Farm down the street. Managers of the property were very responsive to our requests. Thanks, Kelly and Hillary!

StAug Dream Stay

What a fantastic property! When visiting the area, we love to visit the historic area and the Island, and this home provides the best stay for access to both. The picturesque marsh view from the living room is the best for waking up with coffee and enjoying a slow start. We walked (with whole family) to Surf Station, The Alligator Farm, Mojos/MrMorgan's, Old Coast Ales, Odd Birds, Anastasia Mini Golf and The Amp. Unbelievably easy and safe! The quick drive into town is so simple, and it's great to get back to a quiet spot after visiting the hustle and bustle. The house is set up perfectly for a clean and comfy stay. We brought our 3 children (ages 11, 13, 15) and our dog and it felt just right for all of us! HIGHLY recommend!

Literally minutes from the beach and 10 minutes from St. Augustine. Very quiet neighborhood with excellent views of a salt marsh. Spoonbills, Ibis, egrets, and wood storks for the birders.

Great location.

You can't beat this location. We were between downtown and the beaches in a very nice neighborhood. We walked every day and it was perfectly safe. The view was gorgeous from the house. They are not kidding about the birds. Every day gorgeous birds were out on the marsh. The house was easy to live in. Huge living area and screened in porch although we used the front porch the most to soak up the afternoon sun and watch the sunsets. The bedrooms were close but surprisingly quiet. Two of us were working on this trip (great internet) and were able to use the back bedrooms and not disturb each other even when using zoom. The kitchen is large enough for multiple people to cook. The owner and management company were great to work with. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to going back again.

Yes, there are birds everywhere near this great property!

Stop looking and book this property! Very clean. Safe community. Comfortable bed. Birds everywhere-marsh in side yard, marsh across the street. Drive to historic section of St. Augustine was trivial and just across the bridge. Notably, on "this" side of the bridge are a number of great restaurants that were less busy than downtown and eager to serve. Short drive to beach. Good stay!
