About this property

Quiet Cozy Beachside Cottage Scott's Beachside Rental

All the comforts of home in this cozy, private, 3 bedroom, 2 bath beachside house. Located between A1A and the Atlantic Ocean. A lovely stroll from the house to the dune to enjoy a day at what feels like your own private beach. Only the people that live here use this beach... and you.

To the dune is about a 10 minute walk from the house to the beach. I've "clocked it", it's exactly a half mile.

Just 3 miles North you'll find Marineland where you can spend a day swimming with the dolphins, snorkel, or scuba dive, in what is now the only 450,000 gallon, ocean-fed tank, a wonderful experience.

30 minutes North you'll find Historic St. Augustine, so much to see and do it's a must. A half-hour South you'll find World famous Daytona Beach, Nascar fans this is a must.

Orlando and all of its attractions are worth the ride, easy to get to and from, can easily be a one day trip from here.

This home is filthy and not as advertised

Pros: The location is within walking distance of the beach (.4 mi) and the entrance to the state park (.5 mi). The kitchen is well stocked, and the appliances are in working order. The TV setup is good with some DVDs supplied. There is also a large selection of games along with bikes, beach carts and beach toys. Cons: The house is filthy with a thick coating of dust everywhere. The sliding glass door is hard to move because the rails are full of dirt. There is mildew in the showers and the house has an awful musty smell. Something is living in the ceiling crawlspace that can be heard moving around in the early morning hours. There is a lot of rotting wood and holes in the siding. The photos online showed a nice home with hard flooring in every room. In reality, there are dirty peel and stick carpet squares in the living room, hallway and two bedrooms. The house is infested with ants. We ended up storing all food items in the refrigerator (after we cleaned it). Ant traps, bug spray and bug bombs were found stored all over the house. Anyone who owns a home in Florida honestly needs professional pest control. There are holes in the back fence. This presents a danger to children and pets since the house is near a busy highway. The plants are overgrown and provide a nice hiding place for snakes. The outdoor furniture, decking and porches had not been cleaned in months. In general, the home is dilapidated and misrepresented. We have photo evidence. PLEASE, DO NOT RENT!

Exceptional Property

Absolutely perfect. We stayed with our grandson and three of his friends. They loved it. The beach is very private. The house came equipped with boards for the beach. Everything was at the house that we needed and Publix nearby as well as plenty of places to eat. It's a perfect place to stay.

Family Vacay

We had a great time and everything was provided by the host to ensure that we had a good experience. The cottage was clean and comfortable with plenty of towels, hot water, and everything else you needed. We did run out toilet paper and paper towels very quickly but made a store run and replaced. I love that they provide all the beach stuff you could need, it made things so nice and much easier. We just really liked the central location and easy beach access as well as the fenced yard for the puppers. It made for a relaxing and enjoyable experience for the whole family. Thank you for having us a second time. Would definitely recommend.

Great Vacation Spot

Susan was great to work with. House was exactly as pictured. This house is great for families. Has a "kids" room which is fun. TVs in each bedroom. Two great porches to sit and hangout. You can walk to the beach. Is a little far but doable depending on your sitation. Susan also suggested another beach which is a much closer walk. She was very easy going. When I'm in the area again will most definitely be looking to stay again!

Very quiet and cozy beachside cottage

Everything was as advertised and is even cozier than the pictures look. Susan was a great host and quick to answer any of our questions. The beach is a quick walk down the street and very quiet. There were lots of board games to choose from too that we enjoyed playing. Would definitely book again.

Great time with the people I love!

We had a great time at this property. It was a long walk to the beach, especially with the higher temperatures. We ended up caring everything and all folks with a vehicle and my sweet son, walked back and forth. There was evidence of smoking on both the front and back porches, which carried over into the house. There were several different smells that certainly would come with an older house. Lots of construction equipment, due to flooding from storms. The back yard was not usable, as so indicated in the pictures. However, we did bring our 2 family dogs, which are greatly house trained. I always when I am renting, take old sheets to put over furniture, it makes me feel better about lounging around on a common couch and/or chairs. It was a beach trip, we had sand in the house. Overall, great stay for the money, just not quite what we are used to, as we love being beachfront.

About the host

Hosted by Susan

Host profile image
My name is Susan, my husband Joe and I live in St. Augustine, about a half hour away from the rental. We own this house with my brother Rob and his family, and my sister Linda and her family. We inherited it from our parents, when they passed away. The house has been in our family since the late 80s. We renovated and fixed it up to short term rent in 2007. Vacation renting was the best way to afford maintaining it for all of us to use and enjoy. So our rental is basically a second home for the whole family. We all use it when it's not rented. My husband Joe is a building contractor, we (all of us) physically did all the work ourselves, kids, brother in law, sister, more kids, me, etc... My sister Linda and I found all the furniture second hand, from the paint to the curtains to the deco on the walls, was all found at thrift stores, yard sales, etc... And it's stocked with everything you could possibly need. We're just a half hour away and want to pack clothes and food and not have to bring anything else. Everything in the house is there for you to use when you hang out there. When you rent it, consider you're friends of the family using our house. Enjoy it as we do.
