About this property

Peaceful Retreat by the Beach

  • Bring the whole family to this fully equipped 3 bedroom 2 bath home with lots of room for fun with room for a boat or RV parking ~ close to beaches, boat ramps, State Parks and much, much more!
    Great location for fishing tournaments at Sister's Creek and the Jim King Boat Ramp.
    This 3-bedroom cottage is perfect for your escape to Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.
    Inside, guests find three comfortable queen beds and two full baths, one with a tub/shower combo and the other with a spacious shower.
    The cottage stays cozy with central heat & air, making every season enjoyable.
    Peaceful Retreat is fully furnished for your comfort and enjoyment ~ you will feel like you are at Uncle Harry & Aunt Hilda's home ~ they just aren't there but all the comforts are!
    The huge back yard offers off street parking and will accommodate your boat, kayak, or RV (no RV hook ups tho'). Lots of room for the kids to run around and we even have a tetherball!!!
    A Weber BBQ grill for outdoor bbq-ing those fish you caught to enjoy at the picnic table under the lovely shade trees.
    We are located on a series of 8 islands ~ tho' you can't always tell when you cross over from one to another ~ from 295 all the way to Fernandina Beach! We are the North Florida Keys and as you travel along the St Johns River and the Ocean you will pass several more private beaches and State Parks. You can even drive on some of the beaches!

    Peaceful Retreat is located about 17~20 minutes from the airport, River City Marketplace Mall, 10 minutes from the Jacksonville Zoo ~ be sure to check out the new Manatee River where the zoo rescues and rehabilitates manatees. Experience the beautiful drive along the Ocean to Historic American Beach, Amelia Island and Fernandina Beach.
    We will be most happy to pick up groceries for you or meet your delivery driver and put everything away prior to your arrival if you would like. Just give us a day's notice, please.
    There are 2 really good neighborhood favorite restaurants in the area, Chowder Ted's is a diner on the water with great food, reasonable prices and friendly staff~ it has been a go to appetite pleaser for many many years. We also welcomed the opening of Billy Jack's a couple years ago ~ a local favorite with BBQ, on the water, good food, ~ check out the fried shrimp and fries ~ good prices, huge servings & fun staff. There are a couple other restaurants & a Wendy's, too. And some yummy ones up the road in Fernandina Beach, like Sliders on the ocean, as well as lots of pubs, cafes and restaurants & boutiques all over Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island.
    The cottage is nice sized with a combination living/dining/kitchen fully equipped for your enjoyment ~ full sized stove, microwave & a dishwasher.
    Each bedroom has a desk in case you need to get a bit of work done. One has a separate door leading outside to the driveway if your group includes separate schedules for those working in the area.
    We have books and games.
    Living room offers a comfy couch, tv and each bedroom also has it's own tv.
    One bath has beautiful tile with niches in the tub/shower combination. The other spacious bath has a nice sized shower and a full sized stack washer and dryer. There is a door that opens to the back yard.
    Wifi is in place.
    Whether relaxing indoors or exploring nearby, this wonderful cottage offers a fantastic base for your getaway. Experience the magic of Jacksonville.
    Peaceful Retreat is located across the street from the St John's River and just minutes from the airport and downtown. Several of our world known medical facilities are nearby making this a peaceful respite while visiting for medical care.
    We use all clean, natural cleaners, laundry detergents, shampoos, soaps, etc for your needs.
    Peaceful Retreat is also a perfect location for professionals in the area for business purposes ~ much more comfortable than a hotel! Close to 295, 95, the airport and not too far from Downtown and the Jacksonville Jaguars stadium!
