Orange Park is in Clay County and is one of the best places to live in Florida. Living in Orange Park offers residents a dense suburban feel and most residents own their homes. Many young professionals and retirees live in Orange Park and residents tend to lean conservative.

Access to the whole guest house.

This charming 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom guest house is perfect for a weekend getaway. The kitchen is well supplied with appliances and supplies. It has a porch where you can relax and enjoy the scenic view.

Sleeps 4. Full Kitchen (fridge w/freezer, microwave, dishes, silverware, and coffee maker), towels, sheets, etc. Wifi is included with flat-screen TV. Some of the amenities we have include:

**Smart TVs available

★ COVID-19 SANITIZATION ★
Heath, safety, and wellbeing of our guests are of utmost importance to us. For this reason, we use a thorough and extensive process of cleaning after each check-out.

We charge a pet fee of $75 per reservation for 2 pets maximum.

*If you neglect to inform us ahead of time that you are bringing a pet with you than we reserve the right to either TERMINATE your stay early or charge an additional $100 on top of the original pet fee.

The following additional charges apply to late check outs/early arrivals, assuming we can offer this at all (we often can’t so please never assume this will be allowed):

1 hr or less early arrival or late departure: $50

1-2 hr early arrival/late departure: $100

2-3 hr early arrival/late departure: $200

These fees are primarily in place to highly discourage late checkouts/early arrivals since this causes our cleaning service undue stress to prep the unit prior to your or the next set of guest’s arrival. This also increases the need for them to rush/cut corners, increasing the likelihood of them not cleaning the unit to the high standard which we hold them to.

REFUND DISCLAIMER:
Please note that if a refund is issued for your booking, the processing fee of 3.9% will not be refunded. The refunded amount will be the total paid minus the 3.9% processing fee per Stripe’s return policy. This applies to direct bookings and bookings made through select booking channels. Thank you for your understanding.

● No cats allowed.
● No garage access. For liability reasons, per our insurance we must keep the garage doors closed. Why you may ask? In the past year we have had garage doors ran into, hit by trucks, fall off the tracks, and even our garage door motor knocked off the ceiling by a vehicle. Each time is generally a $1500+ fix.
● You must be 21 years of age or older to book a reservation, and an individual who is 21 years of age or older must be present throughout the duration of the reservation.
● Please no eating or drinking in the bedrooms (closed water bottles are an exception). Additional cleaning fees to remove food/drink stains will apply.
● This is a smoke-free property. Smoking of any kind is strictly prohibited inside the home or on the premises. Violation of this policy will result in a $200 fine to cover additional cleaning costs.
● Pick up all trash before departing. Place all garbage in an outside trash can.
● Please wash all dishes. If the dishwasher was used, please run and unload the dishwasher prior to
departure.
● Do not open the windows. This is due to the extra security measures we have installed.
● The storage room is to remain closed at all times.
● Consumables such as condiments or snacks may be left behind by previous guests if they are not empty. We try our very best to ensure that it is not expired or stale. HOWEVER, ultimately, it is up to the guests’
discretion and inspection to consume these items if they wish. The host does not take any responsibility
for the consumables.
● Please do not rearrange the furniture.
● If guests are found to have had a party without host permission which results in additional cleaning or
maintenance required, guests will be responsible for additional cleaning charges. In the unfortunate
event that neighbors are disturbed, GUESTS WILL BE ASKED TO VACATE THE PROPERTY
IMMEDIATELY.
● NO ILLEGAL ACTIVITY OR GUESTS WILL BE ASKED TO VACATE THE PROPERTY IMMEDIATELY

Nice Getaway
After driving straight into a hurricane on the way to this location, our power was out when we arrived in the middle of the night but the host was right on it. He got us in and was very accommodating. The power was restored the next day and this vacation spot was nothing short of relaxing and perfect! Very clean and accurate from the pictures online. We took full advantage of the private dock and caught sting rays and catfish. If in the area, we will be back.

BE SURE TO READ EVERY PARAGRAPH!
This home did not describe that this is the home owners home and the “guest house” is attached to their home! Not a private rental. I was traveling by myself on business and was greeted by a man that lived at the home. I did not feel safe staying with complete strangers during my stay. The welcome email says “ We live close so if there is anything else you need” Close by certainly does NOT mean in the same house! When I messaged them asking to cancel my reservation and a refund since not feeling safe traveling by myself and staying with other people, they refused and were rude. I’ve stayed in many, many Vrbo’s over the years and have never had an experience like this nor have I ever left a negative review for a home.

Peaceful Getaway
This was one of the best rentals we have stayed at. Both the management company and the owners of the house were extremely kind. The place was spotless and the views were serene. So many nice touches as well to make it feel like you are at home. A great place to be able to bring your dogs too as there is a nice sidewalk along the river for walks. Overall amazing!

Beautiful place
Our stay was exceptional. Immaculate, picturesque waterfront property. Kemp the owner was steps away for any questions. The outskirts of the property is a very dense suburb with lots of traffic. Great stay for traveling through the state or specific local plans. Only one hiccup,.. The property was listed by a management company which failed to inform that the check-in instructions would be emailed via a different company domain name even though all the communications leading up to the stay were all through the VRBO site. This caused unnecessary frustration that could have been prevented. Not the owner’s fault. So I still rate it 5 stars.

Double booked. Read the other reviews!
The property manager called 30 min before our arrival and cancelled the booking last minute. He said they had double booked the property and the other guests checked in the day before. My husband, daughter and I were very inconvenienced. I was on the phone with VRBO for over an hour and a half trying to find different accommodations.

AMAZING!!! will stay again- best view and so clean!
CLEAN! The property is exactly how it is advertised, it's impeccably clean and felt very safe. The water views are amazing! There were tons of little touches that made it special. We didn't have to do any cleaning ourselves upon arrival and felt very safe sleeping here. We've been very isolated during the pandemic and the owners were keenly aware of this and kind enough to keep their distance. I will stay again!!!
