Neighborhood overview:
The Lincolnville Historic District neighborhood is a friendly and welcoming residential community filled with charming architecture and personalities. You will find that the neighborhood is diverse with many interesting people of various backgrounds, and that they care about their community. There are several active and welcoming churches in the Lincolnville Historic District, one of which can be seen from the front of the cottage, so close that you can clearly hear the choir on Sunday from the porch. There are four (4) restaurants in the Lincolnville Historic District- The Blue Hen; the Ice Plant Bar; The Preserved; and Crave Food Truck. Lincolnville was a victim of redlining by the Federal Government and the private sector, the evidence of which still exists to this day. I encourage anyone who is not familiar with the practice of redlining to probe the subject. Bear in mind that St. Augustine is over 450 years old, and every neighborhood in Downtown St. Augustine has buildings that are in disrepair and could use a bit of work, including Lincolnville. If you don't wish see buildings that are architecturally contributing while perhaps in need of a little or a lot of work, then Lincolnville, or other neighborhoods Downtown, may not be the correct fit for you. Lincolnville in particular is experiencing a period of revitalization, so don't allow the derelict architecturally contributing buildings deter you from the rich history that the neighborhood and Downtown have to offer.

I live close to my rental property, and am available 24/7 to respond to any issues or concerns.

As your host, you can expect that I will NOT come onto the property unannounced. The only exception could be when I pull the trash and recycling carts to the street for collection. Trash is collected on Tuesday, and recycling on Friday. Usually I contact guests before I pull the carts, but sometimes I forget. Trash carts live in the side of the front yard.

If I need to do something such as cut the grass, water the plants, or retrieve something from the storage shed, I will contact the guest in advance. I don't wish to cause a disturbance, so if another time is better for you just let me know.


CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE:
Guest will NOT be given a list of chores to complete at check-out. Simply lock the door and leave. Host prefers to take care of everything.

I booked this for my husband and mother in law for a short trip. They had nothing but good things to say about the house and would definitely say here agin if in the area. They did get a parking ticket for being a little on the line when parking down town so just make sure you are parking correctly because they are strict with how you park.

Best Place Around
This place was fantastic! It was truly walking distance to everything we wanted. The host did a great job remodeling. What’s more, Blake did not want his guests to have any chores on exit; just leave the keys and lock the door. How awesome is that? Oh, there was a great brewery right around the corner.

We started our vacation in St. Augustine Florida, stayed 2 nights at this property and highly recommend this rental. It has everything you need to have an at home feel kind of stay. Owner lacked nothing from bars of soap to reading material. Owner was very responsive and home was clean and fresh. Check out this place if you are looking for a quiet, comfortable, clean and charming vibe.

Spring Break weekend
The host was amazing! The check-in process was very easy and everything was exactly as described. Directions were detailed and included everything we needed. We had a great get-away and didn’t have to worry about driving downtown because everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. Blake is a stand-up host who cares about his guests as well as his property. Would stay here again if I’m ever back in St. Augustine!

Great Place!
Blake’s place was perfect for our family of 5. There are only two bedrooms, but with two sofa beds, we were able to spread out and sleep comfortably. We were in town for a wedding and the house was a quick walk from the venue. In fact, we did not use our car the entire weekend because everything was so close. We also enjoyed being able to have our coffee on the front porch in the mornings. Blake’s house was clean (so clean I felt comfortable walking around barefoot) and had everything we needed. Blake was very easy to communicate with and a thoughtful host.

The accommodations were wonderful. It's a beautiful, safe neighborhood located walking distance from restaurants and museums. Blue Hen Cafe was one of our favorites a quick 3 min walk. The house was very clean - super clean bathrooms and kitchen and living areas - very comfortable king beds. The host (Blake) was also easy to get in touch with and responded quickly to communications.

Cozy, Convenient, and Clean
We loved our stay in St. Augustine and Blake's home made it so easy to enjoy. The home is exactly as advertised and properly rated at 5/5 stars. The only concern I had was parking and Blake was quick to help and explain. No shortage of street parking and he let's you use his downtown parking pass if needed. Since, St. Augustine is such a walkable city, we didn't even need to use it. We would definitely stay here again in the future.
