Wonderful weekend away!

Our stay at the Peacock Cottage was absolutely wonderful! The host was very informative and easy to communicate with, the property was beautiful, and the location is incredible! We really appreciated the house was in the heart of major attractions, and yet the neighborhood was quiet and decorated in beautiful oak trees.

Charming!

It was fantastic! Rental was as described! Appreciated the off street parking. It was crazy busy downtown between the holidays so it was nice to relax in a quiet space! We had some rain many days so we used the covered porch more than the back patio.

Cute comfortable cottage

Met friends there to enjoy Festival of Lights in St. Augustine. Peacock Cottage was perfect for our stay. It offered plenty of room for the three of us, great location near downtown, and easy access to Hwy #1 for the times we wanted to venture further out. The weather turned cold when we first arrived and due to the limited parking downtown we opted to Uber there one night and had no problem getting the service for the short drive to and from the cottage. It was clean and cozy. Beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was charming and we especially enjoyed watching the peacocks in the morning. The hostess promptly responded to my inquiries whenever I reached out to ask a question. i would definitely use this same property again.

Good location but be careful

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean and comfy. It was great we could bring our dogs and let them run around in the fenced backyard. Our rental was close in proximity to The Fountain of Youth where my son's wedding was. There were 7 of us and we had 5 cars because of all the wedding items we had to bring. Two cars fit in the rental's driveway spaces, the other 3 were parallel parked across the front of our rental on the road within the property boundary. Sometime overnight someone key'd all 3 of our cars that were parked on the road. They did a thorough job on each car and it's going to cost thousands in repairs. The host said she's never encountered this issue before. Anyhow, it was super disappointing to end the wedding trip this way. We won't give in and stay away like the vandalist hopes. Instead, we will be back and will book again. We will be vigilant in where we park and will have our security cameras on.

Fantastic cottage!

This cottage was absolutely perfect for our stay during my daughter’s wedding in St Augustine! The property was immaculate and the location was very close to downtown (right next door to the Fountain of Youth). The host was very responsive and took care of anything we needed! We couldn’t have asked for anything better!

Great house in a great location

Great property with a wonderful set up. Plenty of beds and the backyard size was perfect. Awesome location to St Augustine attractions. Seller communication was wonderful. I never had to reach out as Cheri was on top of reaching out to me first for any questions I may have. W

This property is in a great area on a beautiful street within walking distance to the historic area attractions and shopping. The home was very well equipped and the host provides everything you could possible need. We truly enjoyed our short stay and are looking forward to coming back and staying again.

Peacock cottage

Beautiful cottage just as the listing shows! Cheri was a great host, contacting us right away when a storm blew through and knocked out power for a short time. New AC unit kept us very comfortable in July. Great location, a few steps to Magnolia street, trolley is a block over and a quick drive to Vilano beach. 10 glorious days spent here and we didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend Cheri and the Peacock Cottage.

Relaxing Getaway

Great location by Fountain of Youth. Pet friendly. Able to reach the owner at all times. It has everything you need from dishes, cookware, bathroom products, laundry soap, iron, dog bed and bowls (if needed but I brought mine), cleaning products. I packed way too much when I didn't need too. The door you had to give a good push but managed just fine. Yard is well maintained. House looks just like the pictures and spaced out well. Would stay again.

Charming cottage in perfect location

This cottage was the perfect place for my small group of friends to have a St Augustine getaway. The house is beautiful, in a lovely quiet neighborhood, within walking distance of the Fountain of Youth, and a short drive to all of St Augustine’s activities. Cheri responded immediately to questions and was helpful and caring about some initial trouble with the door lock and a maintenance issue. We would stay here again. Something to be mindful of is that the second floor isn’t insulated, so it gets hot during the day. It cooled off at night and was comfortable. Thanks for the great stay!

Great location - classic bungalow

We had a great stay. The property is located within walking distance of Old St. Augustine near shops and restaurants. The house had all the amenities we expected and also had a nice fenced-in backyard that worked well for our dog. There was ample space for myself, husband and 22 year-old daughter. The property manager was great to work with. We would definitely recommend this place and hope to stay there again.

The perfect cottage for the perfect getaway

The Peacock Cottage was so much more than I expected. It is a beautifully appointed home of upscale design. The owner is so thoughtful in seeing things through the eyes of a guest. We lacked for nothing. The location is quiet and serene. We enjoyed the peacocks that would visit the yard. The front porch is spacious with comfortable seating. We spent far more time out there than we would have guessed we would. The backyard deck and spacious backyard were beyond expectation as well. Because this was a last minute trip and we didn't have much time to research the location of the cottage, we were stunned with nearing the cottage and GPS directed us to Magnolia Avenue. We turned the corner and gasped at the beauty of the of the Magnolia Avenue's Oak Canopy. The cottage is only three houses from the corner of one of the most photographed streets in all of the U.S. The Fountain of Youth Park is only a short walk from the cottage. One day, we used the trolley's park stop as an easy way to get into the historic district and home again. The serenity and calm vibe of the cottage and its location made this a trip to remember. I have already recommended the Peacock Cottage to some friends and family who have asked about it upon seeing the photos. Thank you for sharing your home, Cheri. It was wonderful!
