Stunning Sunrise
All the comforts of home in this getaway on the river. Watch the wildlife while sitting on the huge porch or read a book while relaxing in the hammock. The dock is inviting, offering more opportunities to get close to nature. The house is clean; everything you need is there. Beds are comfortable. Great place to get away from the hectic demands of everyday life. Good access to visit St. Augustine. Highly recommended.

Stay on the River
Beautiful location. Well cared for property. Nice neighbors. Love the bird feeders and got to meet a raccoon. The only thing is it was quite aways from Green Cove Springs. Closer to Palatka so unsure why the address is Green Cove Springs. But worth the distance.

Great hideaway
Great place to get away. Quiet and relaxing. Loved the little sitting area on the dock! Beautiful place to watch the moon come up. The wildlife turkeys came to the bird feeder. So interesting to watch. The home had everything that we needed to stay for the two weeks we were there.

Million dollar view. The home was comfortable, spacious and very clean. Lots of attention to detail! The owner was super responsive to us. If you need a place to kick back and unwind this is the place to recharge your batteries. Fishing is fun and plentiful! Thank you for opening up your home to us! We hope to be back soon!

River retreat
Loved the location, the view, the wildlife, great rainstorms, wonderful seclusion. The Wi-Fi could use a booster, but we were able to stream online some. We brought (and contributed to!) DVDs to watch, as local channels are not plentiful. Did not use a lot of the outside/outdoor amenities as it was blazing hot. We went to several different springs close(ish), and did some antique shopping in Palatka & Green Cove. Lovely home, a little ‘musty’ but you’re close to the river. If you want seclusion this is your place!

St Augustine trip
The house was great and well stocked with essentials, Location was great. Only issue, the internet was almost useless. You could log on but opening websites/tv was slow or never opened or pixilated and cut-out. I suggest placing the router/modem next to the TV. It solved the problem at our house. Had a great time.

Wonderful vacation
Right from the moment we arrived we were pleased. The house is comfortable, well furnished and the kitchen lacked only a roll of aluminum foil which was an easy fix when we found Publix in Palatka. The wraparound porch and dock were our favorite spots. When we arrived the azaleas were blooming. Our highlight was probably lunch with Mike and Rhanda one day. Several day trips into St Augustine gave us a little action but the peace and tranquility at the river house were what we wanted and found.

This property is truly old Florida living. If your looking for a quiet relaxing vacation this is it. Private fishing dock was amazing, we brought a crab trap with us and caught 6 crab in three days. The homeowner and property manager are very attentive to your needs, and are on top of any issues you may have. Great to watch wild life as well, early morning deer, wild turkeys in the afternoon and birds all day. My wife and I can’t wait to head back out and enjoy this property again.

Wonderful getaway, away from it all while close enough to it all!
We stayed at the Riverside home for 1 week. We were able to enjoy the amenities of the home, we enjoyed the company of the friendly duck, who our son called Quackers. We enjoyed the zoo in Jacksonville, time with friends in Green Cove Springs, 2 days at beaches in St. Augustine, a day exploring St. Augustine, a day visiting family in The Villages and a few days to ourselves. Tyler and his team did a great job getting the home ready so close to after a storm having come through. They have the home wonderfully stocked as if it were your own home. We will definitely keep this spot of tranquil peace on our list of favorites!
