Casa Lola Downtown Cottage

About this space
1930's restored (in 2020) cottage in historic Lincolnville. Only blocks (5-10 min. walk) from downtown shops and restaurants. Close enough to the hustle and bustle yet nestled in the large oaks of adjacent Lincolnville. Only a few miles or 5-10 min. drive to the beach. Cottage has been completely restored (in 2020) with many upgraded finishes (i.e. 2 old chimneys; original doors; marble shower, wood floors and custom cabinets) including a charming rear patio for kids/pets to play in. Very airy and bright with lots of character .
The space In its heyday was originally a bed and breakfast. It sits on a lot shared alongside the main cottage.
Guest access
Cottage sits on a lot with main cottage. The driveway is exclusively for guest use. The gated rear yard/patio is cozy and reserved for guests. Pets are allowed to roam with their owner throughout the entire yard but can be left to roam unaccompanied in the gated rear patio area.

Cozy and quiet
Overall the cottage was cozy and quiet, tucked back on the property. Heard no outside noise the whole stay. Beds and pillows were comfortable, blackout curtains in rooms. Communication with host was easy. You can tell the hosts care for their property. Location is about 20 minute walk from downtown but it's safe and quiet, we walked back late at night and had no concerns.Getting ready in this property was challenging, bathroom is small which is understandable in a cottage. Bathroom had the only mirror (besides a full length) tucked into the quasi closet. There is no spot in the shower for shower products, which made navigating the shower with products and shaving legs difficult.Pros:One off street parking spot - Big pro for this location! Quiet Clean (mostly)Cons: One bar to hang clothes with a few hangers (no closet)No facial tissueCaked dust on bathroom fan and night light in bathroomLots knickknacks and glass vases, breakable itemsAll white towels, bought my own black cloth for make-up removal.

Friends weekend trip to St. Augustine
My friends and I do a get away once a year and we really had a wonderful time in St. Augustine for the Nights of Lights experience. The cottage was very clean and well stocked for our long weekend! The location was okay as it was a 15-20 minute walk to the some of the lighted areas. we really like the tram ride experience. The hosts were very responsive.

Superior Location
Our first VRBO stay. The location could not have been better. We walked everywhere for the 3 days we stayed. Took the car out once to go to the Lighthouse. Very quiet neighborhood with lots of character. House was ideal: open floor plan, modern appliances, abundance of dishes and towels. Shower head was adequate. Simple checkin with key. Fast WiFi. We used the screened in front porch: box fan kept air moving. Beds were outstanding. Neighbor ac was a little annoying but can’t be helped. Excellent communication with John. Simple rules.

Secluded gem!
From the moment we opened the door we realized what a charming cottage Casa Lola truly is! Pictures do not do her justice! Such delightful visual encounters in each room. Cozy and comfortable with peaceful gardens in a private yard and a quiet neighborhood for walks to a nearby lake. Close to excellent restaurants and the Historic District but away from the busy area traffic. Don't pass this gem up! John, our host, has made sure everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay is available! Thank you John for sharing this cozy cottage. We will return!

Beautiful cottage in historic area
We loved our stay at Casa Lola. Our host was kind, very responsive, and provided an accurate description of property. The property is charming and clean which made our stay just as we’d hoped. We even met some of the neighbors and they were lovely too. We’d stay again if we were to visit St. Augustine in the future.

Quaint Home In Prime Location!!
First, let me say John was very kind, friendly and accommodating!! Great little cottage is a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to many restaurants and to downtown. We would go downtown during the day visit the sites, the fort and out to eat and shop. We’d go back to the house freshen up. Go out for dinner and cocktails and walk home. It was perfect. Just what we were looking for. No need to drive no need for taxis and no need for Ubers. We generally stay at hotels, but We were on our way to Fort Myers FL for the winter and we had my cat. It was really wonderful that John allowed pets. My cat got along great and hung out in the front porch a lot. Our next day we will definitely request this home again.
