Overall Great Stay!
The house itself was super cute, comfy & cozy. The location was good in regards to getting places easily, however, the neighborhood itself was very run down and some of the neighbor's homes were not well kept. Aside from the esthetic of the neighborhood, the house was great!

Great stay, bad first impression
We had a great stay & it was very enjoyable once we settled in. The inside of the house is really well done & very accurate from the pictures & description. It fit our family of 2 adults & 2 teens perfectly. Jen offered an early check in which was thoughtful but we could not arrive until after 10:00pm due to our travel distance. The train mentioned in the notes was active and certainly noticeable at night, although the noise machines provided are a nice touch. The rooster in the neighbors yard was unexpected but reminded us of one of our favorite places so that was not an issue. We do have a recommendation that may help for future residents. We may be the exception, as most visitors likely arrive during the daylight hours. When we got there after driving through a neighborhood that, upon first appearance at night, seems bit unsafe, especially if it was just my wife & daughter alone, there were no lights turned on, inside or outside so it was hard to identify the address &make sure it was correct. We actually walked up to a neighboring home first, assuming it was the rental because it was so well lit up but thankfully we didn’t disturb the owners. The arrival was not ideal after a long drive and having to walk from the car through the dark in an unfamiliar neighborhood. At the side entry door as indicated in the instructions, a motion light came on so that helped. The house was completely dark inside and again felt a bit unsafe Once we got the lights on it was great!

Perfect little getaway!
This is a great place to stay if you want to be close to George Street and all the cool things St. Augustine has to offer, without being stuck in the hectic traffic! When we checked in, my code did not originally work but Jen responded immediately and we got in with ease. Our stay was great, the cottage has everything you need! Kudos to Jen for helpful hints and perfect response time. If we are in the area again, I will definitely try to book this.
