We have stayed at this beach before and we really liked it. We always have to take a granddog or two with us and this house allows that. Other "dog houses" we have stayed at sometimes would look and smell like dog houses, but this house definitely does not. It is very clean and pleasant. We really like the fenced in yard and parking area so that when you let your dog out, he cannot run out into the very busy highway in the front of the house. We also like that everything is there waiting for us like linens, etc. We have another trip planned for this winter. We love the area, we love the house, and Russell and Tina are very pleasant people to deal with.

We stayed at this beach cottage with my parents over the Easter break. The cottage is perfect for two couples and "pet friendly" is so nice as we each brought our dogs. The location/views are wonderful! It is about 1 mile up A1A from the causeway bridge and the Publix grocery store! The kitchen is well equipped and the bathrooms appear to have been updated. The layout is perfect with the kitchen/family room on the ocean side of the cottage and the bedrooms in the back. The wi-fi was great and cable TV/DVD player were nice too! We loved the fenced in yard for the dogs and covered parking under the cottage was great. It would have been nice to have a washer/dryer rather that cart laundry over to the mainland. Recommend Kate's up A1A for lunch/dinner and the Kingfish Grill on the mainland side of the causeway bridge for lunch (10% off coupons in local tourist brochures). Wonderful location when visiting St. Augustine as you get the best of both worlds- the beach and 10 minutes from historic downtown!

We LOVE this beach house. We just spent a fabulous week in this beach house with our two children- ages 3 and 1 and our Aussie dog. This was our 4th stay here and we can't say enough good things about it. Great location, no crowds, super clean and well cared for. We loved the new railing around the deck which was totally kid and dog proof. The fenced in yard is perfect for pets and kids too. The undisturbed walk way to the beach is perfect. Our children had a blast. Our 3 year old cried when we left and wanted to know why we couldn't live in the "dolphin house". We will always call it the "dolphin house".
