Neighborhood overview:
The Lincolnville Historic District neighborhood is a friendly and welcoming residential community filled with charming architecture and personalities. You will find that the neighborhood is diverse with many interesting people of various backgrounds, and that they care about their community. There are several active and welcoming churches in the Lincolnville Historic District, one of which can be seen from the front of the cottage, so close that you can clearly hear the choir on Sunday from the porch. There are four (4) restaurants in the Lincolnville Historic District- The Blue Hen; the Ice Plant Bar; The Preserved; and Crave Food Truck. Lincolnville was a victim of redlining by the Federal Government and the private sector, the evidence of which still exists to this day. I encourage anyone who is not familiar with the practice of redlining to probe the subject. Bear in mind that St. Augustine is over 450 years old, and every neighborhood in Downtown St. Augustine has buildings that are in disrepair and could use a bit of work, including Lincolnville. If you don't wish see buildings that are architecturally contributing while perhaps in need of a little or a lot of work, then Lincolnville, or other neighborhoods Downtown, may not be the correct fit for you. Lincolnville in particular is experiencing a period of revitalization, so don't allow the derelict architecturally contributing buildings deter you from the rich history that the neighborhood and Downtown have to offer.

I live close to my rental property, and am available 24/7 to respond to any issues or concerns.

As your host, you can expect that I will NOT come onto the property unannounced. The only exception could be when I pull the trash and recycling carts to the street for collection. Trash is collected on Tuesday, and recycling on Friday. Usually I contact guests before I pull the carts, but sometimes I forget. Trash carts live in the side of the front yard.

If I need to do something such as cut the grass, water the plants, or retrieve something from the storage shed, I will contact the guest in advance. I don't wish to cause a disturbance, so if another time is better for you just let me know.


CHECK-OUT PROCEDURE:
Guest will NOT be given a list of chores to complete at check-out. Simply lock the door and leave. Host prefers to take care of everything.

Spring Break weekend
The host was amazing! The check-in process was very easy and everything was exactly as described. Directions were detailed and included everything we needed. We had a great get-away and didn’t have to worry about driving downtown because everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. Blake is a stand-up host who cares about his guests as well as his property. Would stay here again if I’m ever back in St. Augustine!

Great Place!
Blake’s place was perfect for our family of 5. There are only two bedrooms, but with two sofa beds, we were able to spread out and sleep comfortably. We were in town for a wedding and the house was a quick walk from the venue. In fact, we did not use our car the entire weekend because everything was so close. We also enjoyed being able to have our coffee on the front porch in the mornings. Blake’s house was clean (so clean I felt comfortable walking around barefoot) and had everything we needed. Blake was very easy to communicate with and a thoughtful host.

The accommodations were wonderful. It's a beautiful, safe neighborhood located walking distance from restaurants and museums. Blue Hen Cafe was one of our favorites a quick 3 min walk. The house was very clean - super clean bathrooms and kitchen and living areas - very comfortable king beds. The host (Blake) was also easy to get in touch with and responded quickly to communications.

Cozy, Convenient, and Clean
We loved our stay in St. Augustine and Blake's home made it so easy to enjoy. The home is exactly as advertised and properly rated at 5/5 stars. The only concern I had was parking and Blake was quick to help and explain. No shortage of street parking and he let's you use his downtown parking pass if needed. Since, St. Augustine is such a walkable city, we didn't even need to use it. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

Convenient Location Amidst the History of Lincolnville
Like many people, I asked myself "where is Lincolnville? It is a rapidly changing neighborhood in St Augustine with so much history and within a short walk of the Old Town attractions, restaurants and bars. No need for a car, but the owner provides a parking pass for the City Garage should walking not be convenient for everyone. This rental is an example of the historic renovations taking place in Lincolnville - be sure to explore the neighborhood to see the different types of architecture and visit the Lincolnville Museum & Cultural Center to learn about the history of the community. The area is very quiet and safe with well lit streets - we had no concerns about walking back from town late at night. The house had all we needed to be comfortable for a weekend in town - beds were both very comfortable, as well. The owner is very responsive and you can tell he is very proud of the restoration he and his father completed to bring this property back to what it once was. Don't miss visiting the Ice Plant Distillery in Lincolnville which is a short walk from the property - they have free tastings of their liquors and mixers and also a very cool bar and casual restaurant in the same building. We would definitely rent this property again and so glad we learned about the history of the Lincolnville community.

Another Awesome Stay!!
The Shotgun House is where we love to stay when we visit St. Augustine. The house is in a great location, where you can park your car and walk to St. George St. in a matter of minutes. Fresh paint, exposed beams and duct work give an eclectic, updated look to a 1930's house that has all of the necessities. Owner Blake is just a call away and is very knowledgeable about the area, and he's always pleasant. We love our stays at this house!!
