Needs to be sprayed for insects. Found several bugs inside while there. Needs some type of curtain on front window for privacy. Other than that, great little place to get away from the outside world and relax

Quiet get away
Good clean lodging. Great place for a quiet weekend with the spouse. Wanted to give 5 stars, but had to knock off one due to being unable to connect to the wifi. The router is in another residence and the signal was too weak to connect. Host tried to fix the issue and contacted Comcast to reset the router, but unfortunately that did not help. As stated by another reviewer, I would also recommend that a curtain be placed over the large front window for privacy.

A little slice of paradise
The quirky Nantucket cottage is as described in the listing. Although not far from the main thoroughfare, it feels really secluded. Nestled in the woods surrounded by nature with a fabulous outlook over the river from the dock. Lots of wading birds, dolphins, and even a little shark. Would highly recommend this property and Alexis is a delight - very welcoming. If we’re ever back in north east again this will be top of our list.

Nantucket Cottage and the property were a delightful retreat. Beautiful and quiet location on the marsh of Lanceford Creek, but close to everything we needed. The dock was a perfect way to begin and end each day. We hope to return!

Nantucket Cottage
The property was in a nice location with great views of the sunset over the water. It was nice and quiet with plenty of trees to make you feel secluded, but we enjoyed the short drive into town to visit the shops and restaurants of the historic district. The cottage itself was very clean and had everything we needed.

Quiet clean and true cottage charming. It was delightful to sleep with the windows open and hear the birds. The parking was spacious and the location easy to find, but feeling back water marshy. Would loved to have fished.

Private, warmly furnished cottage at the end of a quiet lane (no thru traffic). Feed the gulls from the dock at sunset ... yet minutes away from the beach, eclectic dining, shops and history of Fernandina Beach and Amelia. Ideal location for playing the best island and off-island golf courses. Not to mention the host/owner is the best, on top of every detail to assure a pleasant, comfortable stay.

Beautiful cottage
The is property is tucked away on a secluded street but just a few miles from Amelia Island and all the fun. The cottage is super clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The cottage is super close to the dock with beautiful sunsets. The host was welcoming and made sure we had what we needed for the week.

Very nice place to relax and yet do lots of fun short trip adventures!
Great location! Clean. Only complaint would be the smell of must. Very musty smelling but I’m sure it’s hard to control in the environment. Maybe a dehumidifier would help.

Quaint Cottage in the woods
Husband and I stayed in the Nantucket cottage for our anniversary. Very quaint and privately located with access to a shared boat dock and Communal fire pit. Property manager left us bread for the birds and cookies for us. Definitely recommend.

Quaint Cottage Nestled in Nature
Wonderful 4 day getaway from check-in to check-out! A very hospitable host and the quaint Nantucket Cottage amongst large oaks along a marshy coastline allowed us to enjoy easy and close trips to State parks and beaches by day and relax by the fire pit and dock at night! The natural beauty of the area and accommodations gave us the relaxing getaway we were hoping for and would definitely book again!

Quiet and beautiful
What a beautiful spot Alexis has waiting for you in this quiet quaint neighborhood. Very comfy cottage with everything you would need for a sweet get-a-way. Sunsets at dock’s edge are true Florida, and she is quite generous with your ability to use the public spaces. We were there for only 2 nights so couldn’t this time, but the fire pit and deck chairs are inviting. She is a gracious host and the town of historic Fernandina is not far from the cottage and quite charming.

The property was well maintained and everything was in order. Had a slight issue with the toilet that was immediately taken care of. The property was close to shopping and restaurants but was away from car noise and light pollution. It is located in a neighborhood with lovely houses, beautiful live oaks, and right on the water. Restful spot!

The location was great. It was a short trip from the Jacksonville airport. Just a short trip to Fernandino Beach on Amelia Island. The property where we stayed was beautiful. Our place was very clean and tastefully decorated. I would definitely recommend to others.
