Family visit
We were in town to visit family and this home was central to our needs and had the items we needed for an infant so we didn’t have to bring all that stuff too. Hosts were easy to contact and quick to respond. Would stay again

Property is as listed, In transition of what the house wants to be. Owned by retired Marine made our trip as we were visiting our Marine. Kitchen has everything you need to cook and bake!

Christmas with our Marines
The house was large enough that everyone had their own space and privacy. Great areas for gathering and playing games. Having a Christmas tree up was a bonus! Saw deer in the backyard every morning. The backyard and deck would be amazing for entertaining. The owners were super responsive when we informed them of power outage (most of Jacksonville without power due to storm) and kept us apprised of status. Would definitely rent this place again!

Good for Families
The spaciousness, location and responsiveness of host were great. The house is much roomier than it appeared to be on the listing. The neighborhood is nice, quiet and centrally located,. It is in a cul-de-sac, so no traffic and plenty of parking. The host is good to allow larger get-togethers, so we were able to enjoy a Thanksgiving celebration with our family plus our US Marine friends who couldn't make it home. We greatly appreciate the use of the homes of others. That being said, we were welcomed by a burned-out front porch light, so had to haul our belongings up the stairs and into the house in the dark, before searching the house for spare bulbs. There was no dish soap or garbage bags, so we went to the grocery on Thanksgiving day. The dishwasher was broken, the sofa bed was horribly uncomfortable, the beautiful back deck/yard had zero lighting after dark, the kitchen floor was filthy and there was pet hair everywhere. This home has many Pros, but some Cons, as well. With some additional cleaning and attention to detail, this could be an amazing home.

This is an amazing home. I would recommend it for anyone needing to visit family. The personal touches really made it feel like you were home. Will stay here again on future visits.

The property was awesome. The house just was beautiful and peaceful. It was such a relaxing stay.
The process was easy and simple. The owners were so polite and friendly. The rules were like I would have written for my own home. Very simply, it was the best rental I have ever had.

Our Home Away From Home !
There were six family members in our group. Me, the grandma, my daughter, two of her children (ages 11 and 15) and two other grandchildren of mine (ages 11 and 17). This home was perfect for all of us. We could spread out and have our "space" from others if we needed; plenty of sleeping room for everyone. Plenty of extra pillows and plenty of towels/washcloths. We did, of course, do laundry daily because of going to the beaches daily, so we kept our bathroom towels/washcloths done daily also. Our communication with the homeowners was excellent. There were 2 TVs - one in the great family room and one in the living room, so THAT was a plus! The neighborhood was QUIET. We did see a dog in the back yard next door, once; but we never heard a dog bark, ever; we heard children playing once, but were not overly loud. This home is about 20-30 minutes from NORTH TOPSAIL Beach. They did have local brochures in a basket at the entryway for anything and everything that you might want to venture out to do. We didn't need a thing, that they didn't already have there provided. Plan to stay again if we have a large group again when we visit. Thanks for providing us our "home-away-from-home!"
