If your destination is St. Augustine, this gem of a bungalow is a perfect place to stay. We stayed here for about six weeks and it was comfortable and pleasant. The master bedroom has a supportive good mattress. The fully-fenced backyard is huge and beautiful - the photos do not do it justice. The owners Deanna and Chris were wonderful to communicate with. The Fullerwood neighbourhood is beautiful and it's just a quick hop in the car to go downtown to see the many historical sights or dine in wonderful restaurants. Also, the house is just a few minutes' drive to gorgeous Vilano Beach. If location is important to you, you can't beat staying at this quaint lovely home.

Deanna was very accommodating to our needs as we had just relocated to the area. The home is dated but very comfortable and charming with a great location near Historic St Augustine.

We loved location and overall property. The owners were very easy to communicate with. We were close to many of the places we wanted to visit and had lovely visits and dinners with our granddaughter and her husband. St. Augustine is a lovely place we had not been to before, but I'm sure we will return.

Best vacay!
This vacation house was absolutely perfect for our stay (my son, myself, my furry son, Angus. The fenced-in yard was great as was the sun porch and the layout of the house. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet also. It was an easy ride to old town or the beaches and the sightseeing , as well as the restaurants. We met no one who wasn't very nice. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I'd recommend this house, and this city to anyone!

Deanna was a great host to us while we were waiting for our home to be built. I would recommend for long and short term stays. The house is very close to downtown St Augustine but it’s also tucked away from the hustle and bustle.

We were waiting (and waiting!) for our new home to be finished. This was the perfect place for our little family to hunker down. Our Golden Retriever loved the spacious backyard and walkable, friendly neighborhood as much as we did. The house allowed us all to spread out and work or relax when needed. Deanna was super-communicative and welcoming. Just a great overall experience.

My wife and I enjoyed the house very much. It was perfect for us, and the yard for our dogs was just right, and of course the sidewalks for our evening walks. We met a lot of nice people while walking. Thanks again for letting us stay.

Cozy place to call home
We so enjoyed the cozy feel of this 50’s house. Friends who came said it reminded them of the Dick Van Dyke show. Beds were comfy, appliances were new and clean. The house was clean and the yard and neighborhood were great places to relax and to get exercise both. Wonderful for walks and so accessible to both St Augustine & Vilano Beach. Deanna & Chris were warm, helpful and accessible. (I took off one star because of the stuffy odor of the back porch). Thanks for all that was done to make our stay so enjoyable.

Older home in a quiet hood
Great little house that has everything you need, in a quiet neighborhood that's great for walks. Within walking distance (about 2 miles) to the downtown area where there are plenty of restaurants to choose from! Also only about 2 miles to the beach.

Comfortable home
This home is very comfortable and located in a quiet neighborhood. The backyard garden area is a great place to relax after a day of touring St Augustine and the National Parks. The owner and property manager were very helpful with providing information on the area.
