Access to I-95 and I-295 is round the corner. The location is close to the airport, the nice parks along Jacksonville coastline, the Zoo, downtown, the stadium and the beaches.

Nice little get away
The property was clean and just the right size for us. It had everything we needed for a two-night stay near the water. We plan to fish and chill right off the back of the property. But unfortunately with rain for two days and the low tides fishing was a bust.

Back to Jacksonville….
We had to bring our son back to Jacksonville for a doctors follow up visit. His passion is fishing & he enjoyed fishing from the bank when the tide was up. I enjoyed sitting in the sun & reading & looking over the beautiful river or sitting at the dining room table working and/or eating overlooking the river. This home is a peaceful place!

Great Location on the trout River, beautiful little spot however the neighborhood is working on improvement so there is some eclectic culture going on. It’s an easy enough drive to any of the hotspots, including downtown and going to Savannah. Nothing nearby:walkable regrading food, coffee etc., but the river lot makes up for any of that.

Cozy and Clean
Petra was very responsive to anything we needed! The place is cozy and clean. Well stocked for eating in if you wish. A few neighborhood eateries close if you wanted to eat out. We went for a football game. The property is close enough to the stadium (15 minutes away). We enjoyed the stay!

Thanks to Petra for making our stay so comfortable and convenient. It's a perfect spot for visiting nearby family, and she does a great job of communicating clearly, even in the week of a recent hurricane that took out some of her utilities!

Just what my sister needed
I got this stay as a birthday present for my sister C and my other sister S stayed as well. C was very much in need of a tranquil, relaxing getaway and this fit the bill exactly. Petra is an excellent host! My sisters had everything they needed. They stayed the whole entire time as they brought groceries and had everything they needed to cook their own meals. The home is in excellent condition and fully stocked. Petra was very kind, generous and responsive. We are bookmarking this lovely place for future getaways and recommend it without hesitation!

Petra is a fabulous host who took care of every issue immediately ( only two in 3 months). The river is very nice with lots of different birds. Even saw a bald eagle a couple times. Just wish we had a second TV.

Quiet Get-Away Home to Relax
This is a wonderful property to just get away to unwind in. We came to the Jacksonville area to visit family so we were looking for a comfortable place to come back to at the end of the day. The views of the river in the morning with coffee (on the deck when it was warm) were breathtaking. Many birds to watch and enjoy. The house was a wonderful place to share a meal with our relatives one night and to play games. The bedrooms are spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Petra was wonderful in her response and concern for any needs we might have. She is a wonderful host. The location is close to the airport, but not very close to anything we may have been interested in touring. However, we would stay here again.
