The Space:
Located in north town St. Augustine is a quiet, up and coming neighborhood that is close to the St. Augustine Airport, St. Augustine High School, and a short drive to Historic Downtown, attractions and beautiful Vilano Beach.
Our little cottage is completely private and dedicated to our guests. This cottage has its very own parking, and plenty of it! It is outfitted with a private front porch patio area that is equipped with lots of comfy seating and a propane BBQ.
Inside, you will find a cozy living room area with a large SmartTV that provides both YouTubeTV (better than cable) as well as streaming apps - you are welcome to sign yourself into Netflix, Hulu, etc. Beyond the living room is a fully equipped and stocked kitchen, with brand new appliances (stove, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, etc). There is a small dining table in the kitchen for your convenience. The laundry closet is located in the kitchen as well, and we provide laundry soap for you.
Located immediately to the right in the hall is the bathroom, with full shower/tub and two sinks to accommodate your group best.
The Layout Unit B has a solid 2 bed 1 bath layout.
Master Bedroom has a King bed
Guest Bedroom has a Queen bed
Bathroom has a shower/tub combo
Both bedrooms have large closets for storage of luggage and belongings so you can fully unpack and settle in.
Out back through the sliding glass door there is a fenced in yard where you can let your dog run and play.
Many conveniences are included, such as a full size vacuum, hair dryer, iron and the ironing board.
We are so excited to welcome you to the "Secret Cottage"! Please inquire so we may answer any questions you have and confirm your booking.
*SECURITY DEPOSIT: In lieu of a traditional security deposit charge or authorization hold for a large sum, we will instead charge a one-time non-refundable incidentals fee to your stay of $49. This fee acts as insurance for minor damages and covers you up to a max of $500 of damage. You may elect to increase your incidentals fee for more coverage ($99 for $1000, $149 for $1500, $199 for $2000 and so on and so forth). *IMPORTANT: Guests must report to us any damage that has taken place during their stay before checkout, otherwise the incidental fee coverage is null and void. In this case, we reserve the right to charge the full amount of repairing or replacing the damaged items to you. Your insurance coverage amount ($500, $1000, $1500, etc) is not the max that you are responsible for. If damages exist beyond your coverage amount we will document this with photos and professional estimates of repair, and bill you for the repairs or replacements.

The place was very clean, and nicely kept. The manager was very responsive to a couple questions. Great area - close to historic downtown, beaches, and other great locations.
Kitchen was stocked great! Lovely outside seating area. 2nd bedroom bed was uncomfortable. Yard was not accessible from a door to the house. Management company and owner were great!
