Great Location

I rent a lot of VRBOs, so going to try to share the things I look for.Pros - This property is in a great location within walking distance to downtown St Augustine and historic St George street. My son and I loved walking everywhere, and discovering the lake/river right at the end of the road. -The interior of the property is beautifully decorated and comfortable, exactly as in the pictures.-Beds super comfortably and AC works great!-Having off street parking was a huge plus!Cons-The property was fairly clean, but floors were gritty and definitely not vacuumed before our stay.-Only the very basics for kitchen and bathroom are provided, so plan accordingly. No salt or pepper or any other spices in kitchen, no water or ice dispenser, only travel sized tubes of shampoo, conditioner, etc.-Front porch is lovely but the patio furniture is as in the pictures and is super uncomfortable. Also, the porch is screened in, but theres no door, so not exactly keeping bugs out.-Strangest thing, there was a huge pile of trash in between this unit and the neighbor. Looked like maybe a shed collapsed and the neighbor hasnt cleaned it up. However theres debris, broken glass, and trash everywhere on the side of the unit. It was really strange.-You cannot check in early unless you pay for it. They literally send you the code right when the clock hits 4pm. We definitely had a comfortable stay, and this is a good home base if youre exploring St Augustine.

Treehouse Tropical Treasure

Beautiful tropical retreat off the beaten path, but within walking distance to all the attractions--including Starbucks. We named the screened-in porch our breakfast treehouse, because it was surrounded by beautiful Live Oaks and we always enjoyed having our breakfast amongst the trees and "above it all".
