Convenient for our stay

We booked this cute cottage because it is 2 doors away from our daughter's home. Though we usually stay with her, it was not convenient this particular weekend. We loved having our "own" place to retreat to (within walking distance) at the end of the day. Hostess LuAnn was most accommodating and really easy to work with!

Cottage in Avondale

The cottage was clean, well-equipped, cozy, private, everything as advertised. It is well-located for activities in the Avondale, Riverside, or Ortega neighborhoods of Jacksonville, within walking distance of shops and restaurants, within a 10-minute drive of the Cummer Museum, and close to downtown.

Trip to Jacksonville for Meetings

Parking very difficult, as you have to back into traffic which is difficult to see. The bedroom is okay, but the kitchen area leaves much to be desired. We were not able to get hot water in the kitchen, plus it takes four to five minutes of running water to get hot water to the bathroom. There was no blanket for the bed, and the weather was cold for Florida.

Getaway to Jacksonville

Overall the weekend stay was nice. It was a guest house in the backyard next to the pool. Everything was nice. It had a full size bed with a small table, kitchen area, with a bathroom, and shower. All you would need for a quick getaway. The only reason I am giving this 4 stars is due to the grass was very high and not very easy path to walk through when we came in at night. It was also hard to see since we had to go through the backyard gate to get to the property listing. The property manager was very nice with communication and accommodating if we needed anything. Overall it was nice and would recommend to others looking room for that small cute cottage type feel.

Cutest Cottage

This was the cutest little cottage! It was stocked with the necessities. The bed was nice and comfy. The check-in and check out process were incredibly easy. We forgot our watches and didn't realize it until we were halfway home. Contacted the host immediately, and she shipped out the watches the next day! We will definitely stay again when we go to Jacksonville.

About the host

Hosted by LuAnn Dunkinson

We are an empty nester couple who are enjoying our adopted hometown of Jacksonville! We live in the main house on the property. Travel is our foremost passion and we spent all of 2014 traveling around the world with just us and our carry-ons. This is how we were introduced to VRBO since this was our main go-to on that adventure!
We have a very sweet gentle Great Dane, Heidi, who you may occasionally see out taking a sunbath!

Why they chose this property

We love our mid century modern home in the Historic District and when we discovered the potential of our pool cottage we were even more excited. Our neighborhood is so wonderful with such a varied amount of architectural styles, mainly dating back to the 1900's. A perfect place for a leisurely walk with a stop in one of Avondale's great restaurants.

What makes this property unique

The benefit of this location is that it is so completely walkable and relaxing if you prefer to stay in the neighborhood. . Or, hop into your car, and about a half an hour later you can also be at the beach! Less than a half hour and you can visit downtown, or be at the stadium for a Jag's game, or even visit our wonderful zoo. Wander a bit further to one of the coastal reserves- Big or Little Talbot and Amelia Island. You will not be bored.
