Family vacation in Jax

This is a great property! The pool and the backyard was very nice! The five bedrooms provided lots of room for the whole family to spread out. The open floor was great for having space for everyone to get together too.

UNF Graduation

We have stayed in this property previously when visiting our daughter who was attending UNF. The location and all the space (especially 5 bedrooms) made it the perfect spot for being together as a family. The pool and backyard area make it extra special as we don't have to go elsewhere to entertain ourselves. Thanks for opening up your home to us once again.

Spring Break Trip

This rental is perfect for mutiple families traveling together or a large family. The house was well furnished and spacious. We enjoyed the pool and backyard seating areas. Our group consisted of 3 ladies and 3 children, the rental was also in a great location. There was shopping nearby and the beach was about a 25 minute drive.

Peaceful property in quiet neighborhood

House is located in a beautiful quiet neighborhood. Backyard is nice and private. Everyone staying (we had 7 people) seemed to sleep well and complimented how comfy the beds were. Overall, it is a very nice home to fit a good amount of people comfortably and with their own rooms.

Family gathering

Our family visited Jacksonville as a midway travel point so that we could celebrate five October birthdays. The house was located in a nice neighborhood, easy to get to and had ample space with five bedrooms. It was very clean and everything was in good working order. It worked out very well and we might select it again for future get togethers.

Wedding Group

Home was nice and in a great location. When it said another rental unit at the location I didn’t know it meant that there was a door with access to the home we rented. I did not like that at all. Master bedroom mattress needs to be replaced no cushion and very uncomfortable. Bed squeaks every time you moved. We had a 3 night stay and were only given one towel and one washrag to last the whole stay. Had to do laundry everyday. Not acceptable. With the $350 host fee you can afford to buy some washrags

Spring break home review

The house was nice and cozy. The pool was great the house was very big and fit myself and all my friends comfortably. The only issues we experienced was upon arrival at 4:00pm the house was a mess with trash every where and the bed sheets were dirty and laying on the floor. We let the home owner know and within an hour of arrival the cleaning crew had it vacation ready. The home owner was very apologetic and insisted on returning the cleaning fee and he also insisted on giving us the first night free of charge. Which I am still waiting on it’s been a week and half and I am yet to get the money back he insisted on refunding.

Beautiful and relaxing vacation!

We needed a place with 5 bedrooms and a couple rooms with bathrooms. This place was perfect. Eight of us played pool in a tournament that lasted for 3 days. We all had nice beds and a spotless house to relax and get sleep when needed. The large kitchen and family room was a nice treat, as well. We will stay here again, if in Jacksonville again!
