This is our 2nd time staying here. The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood. The wildlife was amazing, we saw deer and turkeys. It was a quick drive to the beach. The hosts left cookies out for us - so yummy! We would definitely come back and highly recommend.

Tucked away gem

We loved the quiet neighborhood and the cottage being along the edge of the forest to watch the wildlife. Convenient for our family visit. Close to the beach. Cottage had all the comforts of home, especially grateful for the chocolate chip cookies waiting for us on arrival.

The hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, ensuring that our stay was as pleasant as possible.

Pine Breeze Cottage

This is a very nice place to stay. I didn’t want the busy condo or hotel experience you get from a work trip so this was perfect. Very private along with the location. It’s 10 min from the beach and you can pretty much do whatever around the area without traveling a great distance. It’s very clean and although I only met the owner once she was very nice and welcoming. I would recommend this to any couple for a getaway. And thank you for the wine and cookies.

A Wonderful Stay

The property was well-kept, cozy, and in a peaceful neighborhood close enough to the beach and downtown St. Augustine to feel like we weren’t totally secluded. The hostess was extremely kind and helpful, which helped make our trip to St. Augustine enjoyable and memorable.

Little cabin in the woods

The beautiful cabin was very quiet and well outfitted. We would love to stay again. There was plenty of room for our family of 4. The main bed was very comfortable and the kids didn’t complain about the pull out bed. Highly recommend if you are looking for something quiet and out of the way. It is a little drive to the beach, restaurants, and Tesla charger, but not terrible at all.

Get away from snow

Needed a place to stay for couple of nights on our way south from the snow. This place was so nice. Very clean and decorated so cute. The area was very peaceful but close to beaches and St. Augustine. And the cookies Jana left were delicious. Would definitely recommend especially for a couples getaway! Thanks again for letting us stay!

Beautiful place. Excellent host. Great location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The "cottage" was very nicely equipped; clean; private; and quiet. Although it was about 20 minutes outside of "Old St. Augustine" the drive was not that terrible. In fact staying out was a nice change from the traffic and crowds of the city. We would recommend this place.

Wonderful Memories Made in Idyllic Setting!

We felt right at home at Jana’s cottage the minute we walked in the door! Beautiful decor, amazing woodland views complete with a bottle of wine and plate of home baked cookies conveyed a warm welcome. Our second day there, our son and his wife who live nearby, joined us for a BBQ dinner and fire pit chat. I can’t wait to book with her again!

Lovely, quiet, beautiful place!

This property is so quaint and beautiful. The Florida foliage was a beautiful backdrop out of the large windows. It was so clean and well-decorated to make you feel cozy and comfortable as soon as you walk in. I highly recommend this property if you want a quiet, beautiful home away from home while in St. Augustine.
