Fernandina Beach Family Gathering

Great property for a family gathering/celebration. Outstanding location - easy to get to everything! Open floor plan and walk out deck is great for groups of people; everyone can be together and you can always see the ocean. We enjoyed our trip very much and would definitely stay again.

Great Vacation Spot

Location of house is excellent. A bit of an odd setup with the downstairs and upstairs being connected by outdoor access. Lower level has been updated and upstairs could use a refresher, but nothing is problematic. The renter was responsive when asked questions.

Perfect Location and Amazing Sunrises

The house was a perfect spot for a girlfriend’s weekend. We enjoyed the sunrises and the beach walks. The house definitely needs some TLC on the porches with broken items laying around and some issues with insects in the downstairs. I sent a message to manager. But, we had a great time!

Nice Beach House for Families

The layout of the house worked well for our family of 13. The private boardwalk from the house to the beach was definitely an asset. We did encounter a few issues during our stay with regards to the property. There was a leak that appeared to be from the upstairs washer that leaked directly onto one of the bunk beads which caused some inconvenience to where people slept. We did not find out about it until day 4 of our stay because family members arrived on different d co thewas

Restful Getaway

The house is lovely, cozy and well-appointed. The location is superb, near the town of Fernandina and the walk from the house to Fort Clinch State Park is two wonderful miles on the beach. This was a perfect place ot relax and enjoy the sights and sound of waves and wind.

Wonderful Vacation

Great property for our large family. Loved the beach access and well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. We had 15 of us and the property was comfortable and met all our needs. Thanks for allowing us to celebrate our 50th anniversary here. We even renewed our vows on the beach. Had a wonderful time!

Fantastic location & ideal for family gatherings

We enjoyed our stay & appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, 2 laundry units, lots of beach towels & chairs too. The boardwalk right to the beach was absolutely perfection. It was wonderful to be able to just walk into town walk to dinner and just walk on the beach. Would Definitely return. The property manager was very responsive a little bit that we needed them.

Another Christmas Vacay in the Books

A Dickens Christmas in Fernandina Beach was really a treat for me and my family -- so many things to see and do for all ages -- but especially the children. Then there was lunch at The Sandbar -- just a short walk down the beach from "the Little Big House" where we stayed -- even pictures with Santa on the Beach. It was so much fun and would consider it again! Merry Christmas.

Great view

The view of the ocean did not disappoint. We rented the house for our annual fall girls trip and one of our friends milestone birthday. We had plenty of room for the 7 of us without feeling cramped or on top of each other. Beds were super comfortable and house was well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of parking and within walking distance of restaurants & a park. We loved being able to walk out to the beach and got to witness a beautiful sunrise. Would definitely stay here again.
