It would have been nice to have a paved driveway and sidewalk. The dock was absolutely beautiful. The house was not very clean and towels were stained and bathrooms need to be updated. The master bath was so small that my tall husband hit his legs on the bath tub from sitting on the toilet and could also use the sink while on the toilet. It would have been for the door code to be in the front instead in the back. The windows, walls, and baseboards were covered in cob webs and very dirty.

Great location, filthy house

Property, location, and dock received 5 stars. But the house was super unclean as if they had never thought to clean under and around furniture or the base boards, and I had to clean a hairball out of the drain. The host was responsive, however it was not worth it to have someone come out and deep clean after a 12 hour drive with my kids and dog.

Great Place on the Intercoastal

We very much enjoyed our stay in Crescent Beach. The home is an older house, but a real gem. It's got everything a small family could need for a week on the water. Plus, the new deck and boat dock were a real plus. The house was very clean and had all the amenities we could need including a gas grill, sheets, towels, screened porch with views, and nice chairs by a fire pit. Even had some beach chairs and ice chests if you needed. The management communicated well and answered questions in a timely manner.

Daytona Bike week trip

Great stay, nice location on the intercostal waterway. Plenty of parking, excellent outdoor scenery and a wonderful fire pit for the evening and early morning gatherings. I would feel more than comfortable to recommend this property to small groups or a large family. The area is super convenient but away from the noise of the highway. I would suggest that light switch labeling and hvac controls explanation be added. Other than those minor details… Book with confidence, it’s a quaint area with excellent dining (don’t miss Vinos).

Family and fishing!

Had a wonderful stay with family! A total of 9 plus our dog and had just enough room for us all. Spent a majority of our time on the dock fishing, which we absolutely loved the space and power provided on the dock! We caught a bunch of catfish, red drums, stingray looking fish (I think called a skate fish) We saw manatees and dolphins, as well! Very peaceful and enjoyed waking up to the sun rise on the dock. ITrip was available and communicative through our trip, they also provided us one free ticket per activities such as St. Augustine Historic Tours, Alligator Farm, Wax Museum, and much more. We did not take advantage of this but it was pretty neat to be able to do that. Had a great time and would definitely consider coming back here for that dock!!L

Not homey but great location

It needs work. Dangerous broken floor tiles throughout, ants in kitchen, seperated split unit a/c units in each room which are very loud at night and living room one leaks. Upstairs bath is odd with two levels and cramped. The outside yard and deck are beautiful. You may want to add railings to dock and walk for safety. water.cconstantly.

Good fishing and convenient to beach

The best feature of this property is by far the dock, whether you bring your own boat or plan to fish from the dock. We caught over 20 different species from the dock including a few big sharks, so think twice before jumping in! The house feels about 80 years old and appears to have been remodeled about 40 years ago. It has a few recent updates, but not many. It is very cramped and the online pictures were probably taken with a wide angle lens. However, if you are staying here it is probably because of the dock or proximity to the beach and you won't spend much time inside anyway. Overall we were pleased with the trip. It has everything that you need, maybe not everything that you would want. Most of our time was spent fishing from the dock, at the beach or exploring the area so it met our needs just fine.

Great hidden intercoastal property

We had a great time with our family of 6! We had beautiful sunsets on the new dock. The kids saw dolphins, manatees, sea turtles, crabs and fish! We easily walked to the beach with the dogs. The hosts were great about sending us details and reminders.

Amazing!

Anchors Away was amazing!!!! Whether you have a boat or not, the location is perfect for experiencing all that St. Augustine has to offer. The dock and lift worked great and it was so nice having our boat right there. The beach is half a mile from the place so it's an easy bike ride or walk.. We were only 15-20 minutes by boat from downtown St. Augustine and rode our boat in for dinner and docked downtown .The sunset view from the dock each evening was breathtaking and in the morning the waterfront view was peaceful and serene. The place itself was very clean and had plenty of space for my family . The owners really went the extra mile on providing some basic necessities and tips for places to visit that are local spots worth trying out. We only live a little ways away from St. Augustine and plan on making it our regular place to stay when visiting. A definite gem!

Older place , low ceilings

This place was fine, it is a old house, low ceilings, cracked tile floors, noisy AC units upstairs There was to be a finished dock, which it was not , everyday for 2 weeks, noisy trucks in morning and loud workers , so made it hard to sun bath on back patio Then on weekends, people showing up to fish on some of the finished pier. Beautiful view, on St. John’s River The house did suit our needs , but did not live up to pictures and info on VRBO Owners seemed very nice with info If you like to fish and water view , when pier dock is done it will be a great house for you

What a lovely, peaceful place to relax. You can watch the boats and birds go by from the couch, or the patio. This is an older house in a natural Florida setting, so you will see some ants. The AC works very well, but is a little noisy upstairs. Bedding was clean and comfy, kitchen had everything we needed.
