Great location in Southwest Jacksonville - convenient to Jacksonville, NAS Jax and area Golf Courses. Fully equipped kitchen includes service for 8, pots, pans, toaster, grill tools, coffee maker, blender, mixer.

Stairs: there are stairs and steps throughout this English Style Cottage House. Two sunken living areas (steps) as well as the 2nd floor (steps upstairs).

**Please note: The pool uses a sand filtration system. The bottom of the pool is a combination tans/browns/blues - so it will not appear crystal clear blue. The pool is serviced weekly by a professional pool mgmt company to maintain chemical balance and the filtration system. The yard is surrounded by more than a dozen trees of various sizes/types - there will be leaves around the area - and when season pollen counts are high - pollen will accumulate quickly. The pool system & waterfalls are scheduled on a timer to run the same time daily. The pool is not heated.

Nice house in quiet neighborhood
The house was bigger than what we expected. Lots of room and space. The house had 3 full baths which was nice. Upstairs game/play area added bonus. Pool and outside area was great as well. I'd book again.

Wonderful home just needs a little tlc
Beautiful home and area. Comfortable beds in two of the 3 rooms. We had a few lighting and outlet issues in the master. No hot water coming out of the master bath sinks. The shower in the bath was fine. Biggest issue was the threshold going from the master to the master bath had carpet tacks exposed. Did not notice it until my son stepped on it. I had to put one of the bathroom carpet mats for the remainder of our stay.

Lovely Neighborhood
The booking and check-in process was seamless, which made our arrival smooth and hassle-free. However, the yard needed much attention—it was in such bad shape that I actually went out to purchase a rake. Fortunately, the yard service arrived while I was away, and the yard saw a major improvement. Despite this, the home still stood out due to curb appeal not looking as good as the surrounding neighbors. Other issues were: (1) The grill was dirty and non-functional, (2) there were stains on the primary bedroom carpet, (3) the sofa had holes and felt unclean. While the home is old, it had a certain charm, quaint and characterful. Unfortunately, it had an old home smell that was quite noticeable. Please note, it was not bad but again, it was prominent. Overall, a mixed experience. However, I would definitely recommend staying providing the issues outlined in (1), (2) and (3) are addressed. Thanks for allowing me to stay in your home.

Birdwood
The property was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room to relax, sleep, and play. The only suggestions I would make are 1)small holes at bottom of fence need to be filled so dogs don’t get out and 2) definitely could use more towels throughout. These are just suggestions and would not deter us from staying there again.

Good house, great pool, nice neighborhood!
The house is as shown in the pictures. Very nice, quiet neighborhood. The pool was great except way colder than we are used to. The front and back doors were hard to use. Lots of room to stretch out with the grandsons. It is dated but very unique. Close to anything and everything. We would definitely stay there again. The train being close is a non-issue. It’s pretty quiet and the boys loved seeing it.

Labor Day in Orange Park
Beautiful home and very clean. Lovely pool/patio area. The downside was the pool was green when we arrived and we lost a day of swimming. The upside was the management company got the pool service out right away - unfortunately we had to give the chemicals 24 hours to work

Awesome Beach Home to Book for Vacation!!!
Myself, and my husband and our two young daughters and our teenager and our adult son and there grandma and my small yorkie furr baby stayed here for our yearly beach vacation!!! I looked at A lot of places for my big family to stay and one that would accommodate my furr doggy and one with a pool for my kids!! I looked a lot trying to find a place but money was the problem with most places are the places that had a pool we would have to share and could only swim till a certain time. I found this home and it had everything I was looking for for my myself and my family!! My kids Beyond loved the pool and all my family had plenty of space to stay in the home!! Also the master bedroom had the most comfortable bed I have actually ever had on vacation and that’s 8yrs of us staying at beach places with hard beds! The only thing I can say that I didn’t like was that the beach was about 30 minutes are so away, but we can’t have everything we want! My kids grandma wish her room would have had a tv cause my kids mostly used the living room tv and the den tv! We used ours in the master but not many channels to real choose from on it! When we got here there was barely any propane so I payed 30 bucks for a Néw propane tank and we used it a few times. Again this home was a great place just no beach within walking distance roughly 30 minutes are more depending on traffic to Jacksonville beach is the closest. I would love for my family to stay here again if we save enough money next yr!
