Escape to a Cozy Amelia Island Marsh Retreat

Discover the peaceful charm of Amelia Island in our private, marsh-front retreat, perfect for a quiet getaway any time of year. This three-bedroom, two-bath home with a bonus room comfortably sleeps 6, or 10 total when booked with our sister property across the street on a quiet dead-end.

Step inside to a bright, freshly remodeled home designed for comfort and ease. Cook your favorite meals in the fully equipped kitchen, relax with a movie in the TV-equipped bedrooms, or unwind in the bonus room’s convertible full-size sofa bed.

Outside, enjoy your private backyard sanctuary, shaded by moss-draped oak trees. Sway in the hanging chairs, drift off in a hammock, or cozy up by the fire pit under the stars. Wildlife lovers will be enchanted by frequent sightings of hawks, eagles, and woodpeckers, offering a true low-country nature experience just steps from your door.

Even in the off-season, the beaches of Amelia Island are stunning and peaceful, perfect for long walks, shelling, or simply listening to the waves. Explore historic Fernandina Beach with its charming shops and local dining, or enjoy kayaking, biking on scenic trails, golf, or horseback riding on the beach in the crisp, quiet months.

As your local hosts, we’re here to make your stay effortless and memorable. Whether you’re looking to relax, reconnect with nature, or enjoy a quiet coastal retreat, our home offers privacy, comfort, and the timeless beauty of Amelia Island.

Book your escape from the cold today and embrace the serenity of marsh living just minutes from the beach!

We really enjoyed this comfortable, cozy home. A very short drive to the beach and downtown made the location perfect. The fenced area for the dog, outdoor space and bonus room for those of us who work on vacation met the entire families needs!

We loved our stay at the home! The house is well appointed & equipped and the kitchen was well stocked to be able to cook. The yard was gorgeous and the perfect place to relax! The fenced in dog area was perfect for our dogs to relax and get in some sniffs in a new environment and decompress themselves. The hosts were fantastic—communication was easy & responses were always quick. Check in/check out was easy as well. We definitely plan to visit again!

Family reunion

We needed a large enough space for my adult children and grandchildren to stay during the 4th of July weekend. The layout of the house worked perfectly. Fenced in yard was great for my son’s two dogs. The house had every thing we could need and the host was super available when we needed them.

Family time

We had a wonderful stay at this location. The home was spotless, the beds were comfy and the location of the house was perfect with toddlers. Bonus on the openness of allowing our dog to stay. Its a 10 minute ride to downtown fernandina or amelia island where we enjoyed dinners out. The hosts were easy to work with and even reached out to notify us that we had left some valuables, which we were able to retrieve. Thanks for the hospitality.
