FIRST-FLOOR LOCATION
This residence is located on the First floor and requires approximately three steps to access the front porch and unit door. There is no elevator but there is a handrail.

Property was very nice. In the historic district of Springfield. The apartment is updated and roomy. Would stay there again. While there for the weekend visiting our son (who also lives in Springfield, we experienced the annual Porchfest which was a lot of fun! Also close to Everbank Stadium. Attended a Jaguar game. Very nice weekend in a pretty location.
This house is so cozy and cute. The house is equipped with everything you need. It’s the perfect location it’s near restaurants etc. The host Eric was phenomenal. I highly recommend this location. We enjoyed our stay and will be returning in the near future. Thank you!!!!
My husband and I were in town to meet our newborn twin grandchildren. We always stay at Forth House. We’ve stayed in both the 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom. Both are excellent choices. The overall vibe is impeccable, cozy, quiet, eclectic. Side note: quite a few of the kitchen and living room items are Anthropologie 😍 (IYKYK). The host is super responsive and accommodating. The beds are super comfy. The neighborhood is super convenient and very walkable. 10/10 recommend!

We came to the property for a few days while evacuating from hurricane Milton. The inside of the property is clean and well kept. Furniture is comfortable and fits the space well. The kitchen was sparse as far as utensils and other items and we found the dishwasher did not work. The outside property was not in the condition that shows in the pictures.
