Family of the bride retreat

We chose this house because it was minutes away from the venue where our daughter got married. The house is amazing, large yard, on the St John’s River. Spacious kitchen and living room. Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled. Oversized covered patio perfect for drinking your morning coffee while you watch the sunrise over the river.

Beautiful Property

My husband and I came up for the weekend for our 22nd anniversary with our little dog. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law joined us the next day. It was beautiful, peaceful & quiet. Everything that we could have needed was right there. And to still be able to watch a comedy movie on Netflix was awesome! All the comforts of home... away from home. It was just so relaxing! We feel in love with this place.

Absolutely best place we have stayed.

We stayed the month of January. We loved our visits with Buddy and Sherrell, they were s wealth of information and great conversationalists. Vicki was very helpful prior to our visit with a phone call she gave me all the information I needed. The beautiful sunsets and sunrises were spectacular. Everyday we could sit outside on the open porch with a black stone grill. if it was too cold they have a huge sliding door to see the beautiful river. Everything was clean and had every utensil to make any kind of meal. We played corn hole with standard size boards. It kept us busy when we were done relaxing. The fire pit was a bonus, for us just such a calming time at the end of the day. We visited Ravine Park numerous times for it serene beauty and walking area. The restaurant Porky’s Bell restaurant is a must to do, Porky’s Bell has outdoor dining and wonderful food. It gets very busy but not a long wait due to its enormity. We would definitely do this home again. I almost felt like I was visiting family and didn’t want to leave.

Picturesque morning dawn on the river -Great family feel

We stayed for Christmas during a visit with extended family. The home has a generational family home feel that added to our vacation. The morning dawn (sunrise) over the river gave us the best pictures-post card worthy! While this was the coldest Christmas in years, we still enjoyed the outdoors, sitting on the dock during sunset allowed the teens to get Instagram and Tic Tok posts they were thrilled with! Home was stocked well for cooking large family meals, clean and everything you needed for an extended stay.

Wonderful time

Enjoyed staying on the river at this house. The convenience of the dock was wonderful. We used the Crystal Cove Marina to put in our boat, it's about 6 miles south of the house. Keep in mind when tying up your boat the tide will rise and fall, bring boat bumpers to protect your boat while tied up at the dock.

Stay Calm and Stanley River House (Est 1955) On!

Calm, scenic and serene! Great getaway for family or friends, off the beaten path large property with dock and directly on St. John's River. We had no issues with dockage for large center console using anchor as counterpoint to keep us off dock and low tide not an issue. Crystal Cove ramp was $10 to launch and recover, 15 minute river ride away. We came for shrimping but got much more! New Blackstone grill was perfect for cooking everything - shrimp, steaks, dogs, burgers and even a beer can chicken. Kitchen well appointed and plenty of supplies of everything. Bedroom set up was ideal and spacious. Whole home is comfortable and we had everything we needed. Vicky answered all our questions prior and everything went smooth as silk. Stars, water, large oaks, spanish moss, birds and wildlife... plenty of parking and layout makes for a very private estate. Couldn't choose a better place to enjoy some of the many unspoiled joys Florida has to offer! Thank you we WILL be back! Alicia and Eric
