This isn't your average beach rental; it's a one-of-a-kind stay designed for fun, comfort, and just the right touch of drama. Step inside and you'll find cloud lights floating above the dining table, a bold pink kitchen splashed with retro flair, and living spaces filled with personality. Every bedroom is its own vibe - from a king primary glowing in jewel tones to a sunny yellow guest room that's pure joy. Outside, the fun continues with a heated private pool, retro umbrellas, and a backyard bocce and corn hole court. Lounge on the sun shelf, grill up dinner, or sip cocktails under the palms as the pool glows at night- it's your own private oasis. When you're ready to explore, you're just minutes from local restaurants, shops, and the beach - close enough to keep it easy, but far enough to keep it private. This home was made for guests who want more than ordinary. If you love bold design, cozy comfort, and spaces that make memories, you'll feel right at home here. Prime Location: .25 miles to the Beach – Quick and easy access to the sand & surf 10 Mins to Mayo Clinic – Great for medical stays 15 Mins to PGA Golf Course – A golfer’s dream Dog friendly: We warmly welcome four-legged canine friends. No cats, please. (They don't like the beach!) There is a Pet Fee of $150 per pet. When you reserve, please be sure to indicate if you will have animals with you. This is REQUIRED. By booking with your dog or dogs, you are agreeing that you have reviewed and agree to the following guidelines: Maximum limit allowed: 3 dogs Our beach communities are incredibly welcoming to animals. Due to our wonderful weather most of the year, you can easily take your furry friend to many restaurants or bars with outdoor seating available, and they will provide them with water and head pats. POOL HEATERS: Pool heaters are turned off from 5/15 to 9/15 as the pool temperatures are at or well above the 85 degree threshold. To request that the pools be heated between 9/15 - 5/15, contact management 72 hours before your arrival. Pools will not be heated for last minute bookings. The pool heaters heat the pools to 85 degrees. When we experience lows below 45 degrees, the heaters will not be able to reach a comfortable temperature for swimming. Though we rarely see temperatures with lows below 45 degrees, it can happen in the winter months. Thank you for understanding. Guests use the pool at their own risk. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Wheelchair-accessible parking and van parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster - Water dispenser ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 2 accessible parking spaces - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Tile flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible van parking - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the sea ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Heated pool - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Garden - Recycling - Unit size: 1,406 square feet - Water dispenser ## Similar properties ![House (2 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94360000/94357600/94357537/65b98d57.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Historic Green Cove Springs Home - Walk to Coast!

Oct 24, 2025 #### Perfect little retro beach house with a really fun yard! We had never played bocci ball court style before this past weekend and had an absolute blast in competitive play! Everyone and especially the kids enjoyed swimming in the heated pool while the adults hung out and enjoyed the good eats in and around the very spacious patio table while watching the game on the large outdoor tv. The decor inside made you feel like you were in another country far away besides the 5 blocks to Jax beach just steps away. We enjoyed walking to check out the sunsets and playing in the waves. We would definitely recommend Surf Mod to friends and family again and use Welcome Home Rentals as our go to for any Jax Beach stays in the future! ##### Gabe P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arielle D.

This was our 1st time vacationing at Surf Mod, using this mgt company and visiting this area. This home is vibrant, unique, clean and it was a pleasure to return to every day! The home was fully stocked with plenty of bath & beach towels, bath products, kitchen and beach needs, coffee, etc. All we needed was our suitcase and sunscreen! The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of additional pillows and a couple of stand-alone fans, if needed. Although we walked on the beach every day, we opted for the home's outdoor backyard and pool for our afternoons. The pool, outdoor furniture, bocci and cornhole was fantastic! The fully fenced in backyard was very private and great for our dog to snooze in the sun. The street was not only quiet at night, but during the day. We rarely saw any neighbors and mostly only dog walkers. The mgt company responded quickly to any questions before or during our stay. We had a minor house issue (outside of anyone’s control) and the mgt company quickly remedied the situation. The mgt company was easy to work with from booking through checkout and had friendly and respectful svc reps. The beach is an easy walk to the end of the street and it's nice, flat, bikeable and had minimal people. We enjoyed lots of great restaurants, breweries, etc. within a short drive of the home. A 'local' told us about "The Corner" (AKA Beaches Town Center officially) which we visited a few times for shopping and dining. All in all, we found Surf Mod, the mgt company and this area to be a great vacation spot and hope to have the opportunity to visit in the future! ##### Denise T. ### 8/10 Good #### Karen C. Aug 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Beautiful back yard ... First the positive: gorgeous pool and back yard (be careful - the turf gets HOT in the sun); excellent communication with host - very responsive; location is great - close to beach & Metro Diner; well equipped with plenty of beach gear - chairs, umbrellas, etc. However, there were a few misleading details on the listing: 1\. there is no en suite for the primary bedroom; the bathroom listed is the hall bath which all 3 rooms have to share and it is tiny; the other bathroom is on the opposite end of the house in an addition. 2\. Guest bed 2 was a full bed, not a queen as listed and there was no TV in that room. Additionally, the bedrooms were very small with limited furniture - no place to put away clothes other than closet and no space for suitcases, etc. The a/c was not able to keep up and the living room addition only cooled down at night. The kitchen is tiny; there was no place to store food other than limited counter space. Stove and dishwasher need to be replaced and there were issues with the seemingly new refrigerator. The house is nice but very small; I expected more for the price. ##### Karen C. Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill W.

All the kids were so impressed by the colors and decor, the pool and back yard was the icing on the cake. The beds were very comfortable and the set up of the house was perfect!

The pictures show the house exactly as it is, but you must stay to get the full scope of how unique it is. The decor is very different from what I've seen in houses but we all loved it!! Felt like we were on an artist's retreat. The location is quiet and relaxing, and you definitely can't beat the outdoor living space. My only wish was that the weather had been better so my kids could enjoy the pool more. ##### Rapheal J. Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert S.

We loved the pool and the artificial turf! It was just beautiful. Weather was not good while we were there, but the screened in porch was the perfect place to watch the rain. Love the house, would book it again in a second. And Mike is the perfect host who responds very quickly to any questions we had. The weather is the only thing that could have made our stay better. If it wasn't for the backyard and great host, the week would have been a wash! ##### Robert S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Crystal G.

The house is beautifully decorated eccentric artwork. The home was spacious, clean and equipped with everything you could possibly need during your vacation. The lanai area and back yard were fantastic! It was like you were in your own little retreat! The home was just minutes from a ton of restaurants and the beach. They can even assist you in renting golf carts if you’re interested. Mike was easy to work with and provided a wonderful property. 10/10 would definitely recommend! ##### Crystal G. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tatia J., Dallas, Texas May 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Small House Be Prepared This property was okay. I travel frequently for business and pleasure and I am not picky. Yet, I was so happy to leave this place after my stay. The house is so small and cramped and it is full of random decor that takes up a lot of space. The fact that the title says Design Masterpiece is misleading. The pictures make it look so much bigger. Two people cannot fit in the kitchen so making meals is annoying. The bedrooms have only room for the beds and 1-2 small tables. There was nowhere to put your suitcase/clothing as the closets are teeny tiny and there were no hangers or luggage racks. The pool equipment is so noisy and up against the house that it kept people in our group up all night. The landscape lights are on 24/7 and they shine into the windows at night even though there is a thin window shade. We had two SUVs and could not fit them in the driveway side by side. The pool and backyard are great and that was the redeeming factor of our stay. I feel like I way overpaid considering the quality of this place. ##### Tatia J.

Super clean and very close to the beach ##### Jimena G. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Anni M. May 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very good The house is very spacious with a big screened in porch and back yard. We were allowed to bring our fur baby which was awesome. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. They had tons of beach chairs and beach towels available. While technically within walking distance of the beach- you do have to cross a busy road so it would be difficult to do with all beach toys in tow. But public parking/drop off is readily accessible. Management was accessible but neither ice maker worked and no one seemed able to fix. But we made do by buying bags of ice. Would highly recommend this as a place to stay. . ##### Anni M.

It is definitely not traditionally decorated, but it is a very comfortable and wonderful place to stay. The walk to the beach is short and easy and it is very well stocked with the little things like laundry supplies, dishwashing soap, shower supplies, and other things that make renting a house easy. ##### Geoffrey K.

The attention to everything we could possibly need or want, to the beyond amazing and eclectic decor, to the comfort of the entire house and screened in porch, to the awesome toiletries, it was beyond incredible. We hope to return at another time. The beds were so luxurious and comfortable, and very high. Only problem is I am only 4 feet 11 inches. I suggest having a step stool for people like me. Thanks for a wonderful vacation. ##### Betsy S. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kylee L.

The house was inviting and felt like a 5 star resort with everyday items stocked and ready to use. The location was perfect! It was close enough for a short walk to the beach but back in a friendly neighborhood allowing privacy. I highly recommend this property! ##### Kylee L.

So many items of forethought were provided to make us feel perfectly at home and inspired by the decor, level of attention to detail.. Great location walking distance to the beach, restaurants and grocery stores Only wish we could've stayed longer. Will definitely be back. ##### Jason S.
