Honeymoon
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was perfect. We enjoyed many mornings and evenings spent on the lookout above the house. It was a perfect, relaxing getaway we desperately needed. We had only one issue with the microwave towards the end of our stay but they were quick to assess the issue and help us out.

Charming cottage
I didn't think you could find oceanfront property as quie as this location, but it exists. It is a historic charming location built in the 1800's, but with the amenities added that you need in the modern world. Only a few minutes away from restaurants, shopping, etc. and just a short drive from St. Augustine. We are looking forward to visiting again!

Quiet reflection
The house is secluded, the road is only used by residents, so lovely sunrise from the crow's nest perch on top of the house. Same location, looking west, and you watch the sunset. The old house has a new AC/Heating system and renovated bathroom. These features gave you modern comfort along side the charm of old wood floors, stone fireplace and wraparound porch. Easy access to A1A made it simple to get to town. Vacasa was very responsive to questions and proactive on checking to make sure all was well. The road out front was a bit of a concern, but we didn't have a problem. We would love to return.

Great spot
The road is washed out. We had to find our own way there past a “Road Closed” sign. VRBO didn’t give us the address for the location until well after we were told we could check-in. A little bumpy but we made it.
