Charming cottage near downtown and beach

The beaches are calling! Owl's Nest is your cozy, dog-friendly escape in St. Augustine. Our 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is conveniently located to all St. Augustine has to offer. We're a quick drive to St. Augustine Beach or Vilano Beach. After a day soaking in the sun, head downtown and try one of St. Augustine's amazing restaurants.

When you walk into the home you'll be welcomed by an open layout. Our living room features a comfortable couch and sleeper sofa where you can curl up with a good book or enjoy something on our 65" Roku television. Our dining area seats eight and is a great spot to fuel up for your day of exploring. Our kitchen features updated appliances and is fully stocked with all the pots, pans, dishes, and silverware you need. We've got your coffee and tea covered! Brew a whole pot or a single cup in our coffee maker. Or, if you prefer a tea kettle, we have got you covered there as well. The dining area and living room make for an excellent gathering space.

The home has three bedrooms and a pull-out couch. The master suite features a queen bed and ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. There are two additional bedrooms in the home - a queen room and a room with a twin over-queen bunk. Our living room couch pulls out into a queen bed. An additional full bathroom features a combination tub/shower. Our home works well for a group of friends, three couples, or a family.

Out back, enjoy a relaxing afternoon in our covered outdoor space that features a couch and two chairs. Your furry friends will enjoy running around in our fully fenced-in backyard.

Such a cute place

We enjoyed our time here. The property was clean, there was plenty of space, the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed to cook with and the decoration of the house created a very relaxed vibe. We were there for July 4th and were able to walk home from the fireworks in the historic district. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location for camp at Flagler College

We had a great stay the Owls Nest. We were less than 6 minutes from Flagler College for morning camp drop off. The home is super close to St. Augustine Distillery, San Sebastian Winery, and Historic St. Augustine. The house was clean, was just as described, and communication with owners was great. My family would have no problem staying here again.

Thanksgiving holiday visit

This is a really nice place to stay, very comfortable, close to downtown St Augustine but quiet even during a busy holiday. The neighborhood is wonderful, and the house has all that we needed. We particularly loved the back porch, even after the cold front came through!

Nice house and great location!

My family enjoyed our stay. The owners were very accommodating and checked in to ensure we were enjoying our stay and to see if we needed anything. The house was very clean and well stocked. Also, location was great! 10-15 minute drive to everything we wanted to see (beaches, attractions, shopping and restaurants). Hope to visit again next year and stay here again!

New, clean house

Very clean, well stocked house close to the historic district. Since we were a bit older, walking wasn’t always an option but we enjoyed Urban 40 across the street. Would recommend this to couples and families.

Mini Vacay with Friends

We really enjoyed our stay at the Owl's Nest! It was very clean with lovely decor. We loved being able to bring our little fur baby too. There were even doggie dishes for her. The beds were extremely comfortable and the street was quiet. The only negative for us personally was not having tv's in the bedrooms, however the tv in the living room was extra nice!
