Just right for our little family
We stayed here with our one year old while we were visiting family. The space was perfect for three people, and would probably have worked well with one more too. The house was clean and well-equipped, and a great location for visiting the beach. Our host was kind and communicative. We'd absolutely stay here again. Thanks for everything!

Bitter sweet
The reason for our visit from the UK was bitter sweet as my son was moving out to live with his father yet the comfort & beauty of our accommodation made it extremely comfortable, giving us our own space yet very central to beach & his new school which we where visiting. It was truly perfect & definitely will return to stay when next visiting.

We came to Jacksonville Beach to spend the holiday week with kids/grands who live in the area. While we knew we'd be spending the bulk of our time with the family, we wanted a nighttime haven to be able to sleep in and relax. The house was wonderful for us, and offers so much we didn't actually need. Immaculate, comfy beds, great linens, a nice layout, well appointed, quiet. All the check marks. Plus it's private, gave our dog a place to run out back. Very close to the beach, plenty of "beach stuff." We hope to be able to come back again when we visit the family.

Business, fish, golf
This house is well kept/maintained. Beds are comfortable and all necessary kitchen utensils were in good order. I would definitely stay here again. We were not beach goers, but the property was convenient for our needs. We mostly drove to golf, fish and business meetings. We did walk for coffee, but because of heat and humidity preferred A/C in our car to access most restaurants.

Family Fun JAX style
We had another great stay at this property. We looked back at the guest book and realized it had been 3 years since our last visit! Way too long!! This cute home is in a great location and way better than staying in a hotel or condo, especially if you have kids. There’s a ton to do nearby, but the beach right across the street and hanging out in the huge private backyard is where we spent most of our time. We will be back, hopefully soon!

Dog friendly, cute, and comfortable
My family enjoyed our stay. Our dogs' needs were perfectly accommodated with a large, lush lawn, dog waste bags, outdoor water, and shade. Our only concern was the full bed was too small for my very pregnant daughter and her 6'3" fiance; however, that was no one's fault as it was mentioned in description, and they made do on the fold out couch. Just something for others to keep in mind. We would absolutely stay here again and thank Heather for sharing her home with our family.

Another Great Stay At SurfPark
Once again (3rd time) the house was fantastic. We like the Location being within a few blocks of the beach and just north of the Jax Pier and local Bars/Restaurants. This location is great to get towards Jax (St. Johns for shopping and restaurants) and to Top Golf and other to do's.Heather (Property Manager) is great and very accomodating. House has everything you need and especially the fenced in backyard. Our Beagle loved it! and the neighbors are great as well.

Very nice stay
I was in town for 1.5 weeks; this property was clean, cute, and updated with plenty of amenities I didn’t really need, but were nice to have (i.e. firepit, hammock, beach items). The location near Jax Beach was great, and the check in and check out process were seamless. Would rent again.
