This was our first Vrbo booking, and we’re so happy we chose this property! Jessie was amazing with communication. I loved how close we were to the beach, amazing food & fun things to do! Great we could bring our pets to enjoy the fun, too. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. If we ever come back to Jacksonville, this is ABSOLUTELY where we’ll stay! Thank you, Jessie!

Not only is the house pet friendly, the entire neighborhood is. We spent a few days there and got to know a few of the neighbors and their pets. The house has a private yard which is great. The house itself was clean, super homey and has a great layout.
