Welcome to “Vintage” Florida!
We are just off the beaten path, so you may hear activity early in the morning to late at night….It is a vibrant town!
Our blue home is next to a vacant business with access to parking behind the home as well as the front.
We are conveniently located next to US -1 (which is a busy road; apologies for disturbance ) easy on street parking or behind home. While we are sharing the property with other guests, it is important that guests respect each other. House rules are enforced! Quiet Hours 10pm-8am
We have created an easy self check in at Cincinnati. Enter through west side of the house (Next to closed business on Pone De Leon), up a few steps and it will be the first set of blue French doors to the right marked 5.

The host was welcoming and communicative. The home was clean and in good working order—spacious and comfortable. We liked that everything was updated, yet had a retro vibe. Walking distance to historic downtown St. Augustine.

6 / 10Average·Jan 2026
Location great. Place cute. Interaction with host great. But nothing worked! No functioning heat or a/c. The microwave worked once but not again. The hostess was on property and responsive to texts after I figured out she wanted texts instead of contact via VRBO. She put us up in another (much smaller) room in same house and let us use both as needed for temperature. Still, much inconvenience for us getting it all accommodated.
