The cottage was very cute and quite comfortable, had everything we needed, which was really nice not to have to go and buy soap, garage bags, etc. It was a great location. We could walk to quite a few things.
Great place! A short walk to town! Quiet! Nicely decorated and well supplied! My dog was comfortable. It's nice to park on the property! We walked everywhere! Would love to come back for a visit next year. The Christ.as lights are amazing!Jans and Mystique
Had a wonderful stay! Host was very accommodating to our needs, quick to respond to any requests. Great location, close to everything. Would definitely stay again.
This VRBO was excellent for location!!!! Only about 2 blocks from historic St. Augustine- we walked everywhere. It was clean and had all the comforts of home! Jim was very nice and always communicated with me promptly! We really liked eating breakfast on the screened in porch! Highly recommend this VRBO!!!
My best friend and I planned a trip to St Augustine, and found this wonderful cottage to stay in. It was very clean, comfortable and is a convenient location to Get to the tourist attractions and see the beautiful architecture from Spanish colonial Days. We highly recommend this cottage to future travelers.
I'm am so very pleased with my choice. Love, love the neighborhood, felt safe and comfortable! Thanks Jim; I didn't want to leave... can't wait to come back!!!
This cottage was cozy and clean! We enjoyed listening to the rain on the porch and loved that everything was within walking distance! Cute little street that was super quiet, despite being close to the action! Highly recommend!
The yellow cottage was very clean and comfortable. We parked the car upon arrival and didn't use it again until we left. The location is perfect for walking to the historic/shopping/restaurant district. We would certainly stay here again in the future.
Easy walking distance to St. George Street, and many restaurants. Easy to load and unload car. Screened in porch for al fresco dining. Comfy bed and quiet bedroom. Tight bathroom, in that the toilet seat faces, and is close to, the pocket door.
We had such a wonderful and peaceful stay in your cozy cottage . Although we only live a few hours away, in Titusville Florida, I felt like I was transported to another world. It is so quiet, charming and peaceful here but we have all the modern amenities – the very best of both worlds. Located on a beautiful quiet street!
Location of property ideal. Unit more of a duplex than a cottage but very quiet, well equipped and comfortable. Though we hit a cold spell, we were nice and cozy inside. Parking in back is a bit tricky. Overall, an excellent stay and would go back again.cozy
Well equipped, clean apartment in the historical uptown neighborhood. Very convenient to walk and avoid parking problems in the city. Nice enclosed porch & also outside seating. Host provides helpful information about the area in a notebook as well as brochures from a variety of locations.
My husband & I try to take a trip every year for our anniversary. This was our first time to St Augustine & my favorite trip so far! The cottage was peaceful, clean, comfortable & full of charm. We enjoyed having coffee on the screened porch each morning. The location is excellent! No shortage of restaurants or activities within walking distance. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go! Many thanks to the host for sharing this property.
Great property as pictured. Walking distance to historic district. Quiet neighborhood with couple of restaurants within walking distance away from the crowds.
Only issue was mix up with code to enterbut host was quick to respond with correct number.
We were meeting friends in St.Augustine over Christmas. Found your wonderful cottage that worked out great. We parked our car and walked everywhere.
It was quaint, cozy and private. Perfect for our stay. Great screened in porch. Our friends came over and we played games.
Even though it was raining we were able to stay on the porch.
Thank You Jim for sharing your wonderful cottage with us. Would definitely rent again.
The location could not be better. Once we checked in, we parked and didnt move the car. Easy walk to almost everywhere. The house is old, but comfy. Remember, that in an older house, you may feel a chill now and then and the wooden floors are cold in the morning. This is not a criticism, just an FYI if you've not lived in an older house before. The screened front porch was a nice outside space. Beautiful, historic town with so much to see and do, all within a short walk. Shopaholics (like me) will be in heaven; full buffet of boutique, art and antique shops. Will definitely plan to visit again. Could not see all in one trip.
Was a nice place to stay within walking distance of a lot of local shops and places to eat.

Would have been a 5 but a couple things in the unit do need some attention which I shared with the host. Excellent location! Met our needs and would consider renting again.
The cottage was in the perfect location for getting to the trolley. We were able to walk are take the trolley most anywhere we wanted to go. Very cozy and comfortable cottage. We would love to stay there again. Also, Jim the host was really nice and checked in by text to see if we needed anything. Thanks for a lovely stay!!!
