River's Edge Retreat brings together the best of both worlds in a cozy, well-appointed home with private heated pool, along with close proximity to river access, downtown attractions and gorgeous beaches! Located in a quiet neighborhood which borders the gorgeous, park-like northern border of the Matanzas River, the home is only a short walk to the riverfront park, convenient to dozens of restaurants and stores, and a 5 mile drive from historic St. Augustine and the beach! This home features three bedrooms, open kitchen and living space, and indoor and outdoor dining with pool views in a tranquil outdoor space. Bring your boat along to put in at the park just down the neighborhood street for a day of fishing a sightseeing along the beautiful St. Augustine waterways and inlets.

This vacation home has been thoughtfully furnished and equipped for every convenience and comfort of guests. Cook up breakfast in the fully stocked kitchen and enjoy a poolside cup of morning coffee before heading out for a jaunt on the river or taking in an attraction in the Old City. Soak in some sunshine at the beach or on the deck of your private pool. Grill out poolside in the lazy afternoon or just pick up dinner from one of the numerous nearby restaurants before kicking back to watch a family movie on the cozy sectional. Bedrooms are outfitted with fresh crisp linens and bathrooms with soft white towels and bathroom amenities.

The home is located in a older neighborhood, which is very quiet. All kitchen utensils, pots, pans, dishware, etc., are very organized and generous. The furniture could use an update with better quality furniture at this price point.

this home is lovely! It's extremely clean, modern, and well-kept. The pool is a lovely spot to relax after a day of St. Augustine adventuring. Best of all, the beds are super comfy and the air conditioning works flawlessly. Anyone looking for a comfortable vacation home in a quiet neighborhood will be thrilled with this find. It's my go-to St. Augustine vacation home now.

Beautiful Home With All Necessities
5/5 stars
Great home, beautiful, comfortable, accessible and had EVERYTHING we could possibly need. The covered pool and the garden were the cherries on top. Everyone enjoyed the clean, well kept pool and pool area with tons of outdoor seating. The kitchen was well equipped had everything you might need and having the outdoor grill was awesome! Everything from check in to check out is easy and accessible. Lots of contact information for any problems but we didn’t have any! It is so close to downtown and the beaches, it was very convenient for us. Limited travel time to activities. Would love to come and stay here again!

Rivers Edge Review
4/5 stars
We really enjoyed our trip to Rivers Edge. The home was nice, clean and well equipped. It was located in a quiet neighborhood and only a block away from the River. Daily walks on Shore Road were wonderful. Easy drive to local attractions, historic Saint Augustine, and beautiful beaches. Enjoyed the backyard pool with family. The management company was very responsive with any issues or questions we had. If we had any complaint it would be the pool lanai, it is in very rough condition with lots of rips in the screens and it is covered with tree debris and was not cleaned off or maintained by the landscape company.
- Nancy
Comfortable and Relaxing
5/5 stars
River's Edge is a vacation destination in itself. Having St. Augustine nearby is a bonus. The home itself is in a quiet suburban location, just a few blocks from the River Walk. We are here in January, so everything seems quiet. There is a beautiful pool and lanai area, which we did not take advantage of due to the chilly weather. The pool can be heated, so the weather might not be a deterrent for everyone. The home is very clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated. It can comfortably accommodate six people. As there are only two of us and we did not cook here, we barely made use of what is available. The home is well-stocked with everything you need to just relax and enjoy. As to the area, we definitely reccommend visiting Old Town St. Augustine and the Fort. Getting acquainted there can be done on the hop-on, hop-off trolley, which we took full advantage of the first day. in that area, we reccommend the Colonial House Restaurant, although you might want to make reservations. We didn't, but only waitedc 30 minutes for a table. The food is great, service impecable, and ambiance perfect. We returned to Old Town a couple of days later and enjoyed the Colonial Experience Tour. The tour guide was great, informative and entertaining. We also recommend the Aligator Farm, especially for families. After visiting there, we stopped at Amici's Italian Restaurant, on the corner of 312 and A1A. The food was great, the servicer friendly and accommodating, ambiencer casual. A bonus was watching live cam feeds from Old Town, the Fort, and Aligator Farm. We took canolis to go and they are the best we've ever had. On our final day, we had no specific plans, except to explore further south on Anastasia Island. We made a stop at Matanzas National Monument and enjoyed the Nature Walk. The ferry to the fort wasn't running that day, but we still enjoyed the stop. We drove on down and enjoyed being next to the Atlantic shore. We stopped at one beach to enjoy the sight and sound of the waves, then found a restaurant with rooftop seating, allowing us to have lunch while further soaking up the sound and sight of the seashore. The food was exceptional at the Golden Lion - the highlight of our trip. We both enjoyed blackened Mahi Mahi wraps followed by Key LIme pie. What a way to cap off our stay!

Jeane, thank you for the glowing review. We are so glad that you enjoyed the home and local attractions! Exploring our special city is an excellent way to make lasting memories! It was a pleasure hosting you and we hope to have the opportunity to do so again in the future!

5/5 stars
We enjoyed our stay at River’s Edge Retreat, the house had everything we needed and it was so nice to hang out at the pool. We enjoyed cooking out on the gas grill. If I could point out some things…. The ceiling fan in the 2nd bedroom with the queen bed rocked so bad we were afraid to use it. The ceiling fan in the master bedroom makes a bad noise, unless it is on high, then the noise isn’t as bad. The pool liner is tearing up and I’m afraid someone might get hurt.
- Vicky

Vicky, we are so glad to hear you had everything you needed to have a successful vacation with your family! We appreciate you pointing out these things, as we are constantly making corrections and updates to the property. We will address these things. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to have you all back!

5/5 stars
Awesome spacious home is in a safe neighborhood, close to so many activities and the beach . Food restaurants are very close. The pool at the home is very nice and inviting. 10 minutes way from the downtown and the beach area . We had an absolute fun week staying at this property with plenty of room for our family. I would give this home rental an excellent rating and will return in the upcoming year.
