This property included a lot of little extra things that you would have in your own home. It is a great location to get into St. Augustine within a few minutes drive. The bumper pool table was an extra treat for late night family time. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a very pleasant and accommodating stay.

I rented this home as a place for my two aunt/uncle couples to stay while in town for my dad's surprise birthday party. The location was perfect and the property was amazing! It was close to everything we needed and was beautifully maintained. The host had great communication until it was actually time for check-in. Upon arrival at the property, the front door of the home was found wide-open. I immediately tried calling the host to inform her and to see how we should proceed. She didn't answer. My uncle and I are both ex-military so we checked the house ourselves and found no one inside and no obvious signs anything had been disturbed so we unloaded their stuff and carried on with our weekend. That phone call/check-in was 6 days ago and I've still not heard anything from the host. Not a "I'm glad everything was okay" or "Was the property okay" or even any reminders about checkout. Zero communication. Otherwise, the stay was great.

This house has everything listed and so much more! In a quiet neighborhood that's a short ride to both the beach and historic downtown. The host provided beach extras: beach towels, sand toys, beach chairs, and an umbrella. The kitchen is fully stocked and includes a food processor, crock pot, instapot, and air fryer. There is a portable crib for your little one. This will be our go to for all future visits!

Wonderful place to stay

First off- the owners are super responsive & helpful! I can’t say enough good about this part. They were very patient with my questions of the house & the area since we had never been to the area & they were super quick to return my messages. They sent recommendations on restaurants, beaches, & attractions which helped us to plan our trip ahead of time. The house is in a neighborhood so houses are a little close together, but never had any issues with any of the neighbors. The neighborhood is quiet & not too busy streets. It’s about 20 min drive to some good attractions. We had 7 beautiful deer that came right up in the back yard one day. House was clean, nice furniture & appliances, & overall a good place to stay. It had a small screened porch in front & another screened porch on the back with a fenced in area for your pet to go out & not worry about them running off- liked that part too. Beds were comfy. Couches were comfy, but one of our teens said futon wasn’t as comfy as the couch itself. Had 3 bedrooms- 1 with a king size bed & tv, 1 with a queen size bed, & 1 with 2 twin sized beds. The owner even put an extra tv in one of the bedrooms so that our teens could have a tv to watch while there. Had 2 bathrooms- both w/ standard sized tub/shower combo. Driveway was big enough for 2 vehicles & a boat we brought. Overall a great stay & we would definitely stay again there! Big thank you to the owners who went above & beyond to help us & make our stay a great one!

As soon as we got it into the house, we knew that everything would be perfect for our stay. Well organized, with a relaxing backyard and barbecue to spend the afternoon or brunch like we did. Rachel (the host) is very polite and even provided us information and tips to make it easy for us in order to explore the city. Don't hesitate to book Wilwood Retreat, you're not going to regret it!

Great time at Wildwood

Upon arrival, our check in process was super easy. Wildwood had everything we needed and then some, it was great having the extra toilet paper, paper towels, laundry pods for use. A big THANK YOU! My family and I have stayed in numerous vrbo's and Wildwood Retreat is first home to not only supply but supply enough for the week. Having the option for a fence for our fur baby was a nice addition. We also enjoyed how close the home was to everything and we absolutely loved the little strip mall with Cold Cow ice cream, Mojo's tacos and Antonio's pizza. These are at end of Wildwood Rd across street. Highly recommend for a quick bite and ice cream every night. Five stars all around.

I brought up a few issues and did so in a nice, polite manner, but it seems the host took offense to each issue, personally because her responses were terse and a bit hateful at times. It is what it is, but next time, just tell me without being hateful. It’s annoying when people do that.

Nice property, well maintained. Note on fireplace mantel to not leave food out due to critters.? We did not leave any food but still saw a bug to kill. I would suggest a full length mirror added to one of the bedrooms.. close to pool and beach within easy drive. Nice screened porch in back. We did see three deer one early morning. Enjoyed our stay.
