Excellent Secluded Property
Secluded woodsy property. Had to switch last minute to the house we stayed in which is on the same property. No issues with the switch, property manager communicated it very clearly and timely. No issues with Check in. Very clean, secluded spot, comfortable beds, big kitchen area with bar stools and a separate table to eat at. I had my parents, wife, toddler and newborn with us and it was plenty of space.

Hidden Gem
The hosts were amazing and so accommodating. I loved how secluded it was and the property itself is beautiful. The front yard alone, I could spend all day in. It has a beautiful pond where you can sit and feed the koi fish and is so peaceful out there. Book with Ali, you won’t regret it!

Best kept secret in St. Augustine!!!
This is such a hidden gem!! It was exactly what we were searching for! The cottage was comfy and a wonderful place to sit back and relax with everything we needed!! It was very short distance to beaches and restaurants. The kids loved feeding the fish and making wishes at the fountain. Alison and her husband were super accommodating! We can’t wait to go back!!

End of the school year get away
Russ and Ali are a very sweet couple who are very excited about their little cottage in the woods. The time and effort put into the little details made our stay a very comfortably homey experience. I knew exactly what the cottage would provide and made sure to pack the rest. We visited historical St. Augustine and the beach while at their cottage. It took about 25-30 minutes to drive there, but we loved the privacy provided at their cottage and didn't mind. We highly recommend their get away. Hope they have many years of success in their endeavors. They are a lovely couple. Hope you get to meet the rest of the kids next time!

A Thoughtful Cottage
The owners have planned this cottage with all the vacay possibilities in mind — indoors and outdoors! We enjoyed the rooms, kitchen, laundry facility, outdoor seating, feeding the koi and turtles, walking the property, and our family photo at the fountain. Emerald Lakes is a for certain place to visit again!

A nice little stay for five ladies get away
The only complaint we had was wishing we could have stayed and enjoyed the place more than just to sleep and get ready for the next day. This was our first time to St Augustine and my sister wanted a place for us to spread out and enjoy sleeping arrangements along with two full size bathrooms to get ready in. We loved the fresh new surroundings this venue had to offer and the actual rooms are exactly as pictured. Every detail has been thought of and the owner was very informative and readily available for any additional questions or concerns we had.
