Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Clay County

The house was beautiful, very clean, and very comfortable. Sunitha was an amazing host! Very friendly!

Great environment and very relaxing,

We really enjoyed our stay at The Gathering Place as we were in the area for a few days for our oldest grandson's graduation from a nearby high school. The home had a nice layout, was very well decorated and had a lot of amenities included: a completely equipped kitchen, a wide variety of coffees, a full compliment of spices (although we did not cook there due to wanting to sample the local cuisine), plentiful towels for both the bathrooms and the kitchen, extra bedding, such as comforters and blankets, a washer and dryer with laundry detergent provided and even a stocked first aid kit, which I'm happy to say, wasn’t needed. It really felt like home! The four bedroom home was just the right size for the six of our out-of-town family members who stayed overnight there and the other three local family members who dropped in daily from nearby Orange Park. The large driveway and having access to the garage to park away from the searing sun were both pluses. Everything was as advertised.

A fantastic spot for a group trip — fully equipped, excellent communication with the host, and an amazing location. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to returning!

This was our second year in a row that I rented the place. My nieces live up by there. One graduated last year. One graduated this year. The place was simply amazing. There was a lot to do. It was big enough to host guests. I would recommend this place to anyone. Whether it’s with friends or family. I had both there. It did not disappoint either time. The pool was great, the games were great, the house overall was great.

The house is amazing! Feels like home! Angela is always nice and responsive! I 100% recommend it!

Beautiful home. Great host. I will definitely book with the host again in the future.

The Mandarin Pearl was definitely a great find! The owner was very polite and helpful. I would love to visit this property again.

Last minute booking and Carla responded quickly. Place was so comfortable. Felt right at home. Decor was so nice. I would recommend her place to anyone looking to stay in Jacksonville. Especially if you have pets. I really loved it.

What a lovely place, just like the pictures! Daniel was very helpful with instructions prior to check in. The space was perfect for a couple.

Beautiful home! Looks just like the pictures. Felt safe, it was peaceful! We will definitely come back!

We had a very relaxing time. The bed was extremely comfortable and the condo had everything that we needed. It’s just a short distance to a variety of restaurants, gas stations, and grocery stores.

What an amazing stay! Everything was just as described and more. My girls really enjoyed the space and the pool. Place was clean and comfortable. Nakita was very responsive and friendly. I would definitely stay here again!

The place was great! Even though we had to share common areas, it worked out great. The other two places were rented at the same time by people other than our family, but it was absolutlely no problem. We made new friends! The only issue that ever came up was the parking. We had rented the space to accomodate my in-laws that were in for the holiday. My children and my husband's sibling wanted to come and visit, but the parking was very limited. We managed it by carpooling from my house that is not very far away. Andrew was very nice and quick to respond to any issues and also very understanding of our circumstances. This place is absolutley amazing and is full of places to just relax for any size group of people. There is always a little nook somewhere to escape to if you need to get away from the rest of the residents. I would totally recommend for vacation or just a get-away!

I stayed at this listing for a month and felt safe and comfortable. The unit is a private suite connected to the main house, but you maintain total privacy with in-unit amenities. The space is perfect for one or two guests, and the unit is located for you to enjoy Fleming Island and Orange Park. Jackie keeps the bathroom VERY well stocked also! Of note- for guests working from home, the WiFi is not the fastest. There is a smell of tobacco as mentioned in a previous review, but we did not find it to be an issue during our visit. Thank you Jackie for the great stay!

While GPS will not take you to the right place, Bob did a good job explaining how to locate the place. It’s absolutely gorgeous, accommodating and comfortable! Everything you need is in one place. There is grocery not too far away, anything you could Possibly need in a kitchen and entertainment. From television to a small library of interesting and pertinent books. My husband and I enjoyed flipping through the local nature books as we sat on the dock. My last morning was magical as a herd of manatees approached me while sitting on the pier! We went kayaking, and were walking distance from the venue next door. Truly this place is a slice of paradise and probably Jacksonville’s best kept secret. We are hoping to return! Everything was lovely and relaxing.

Great for a few days I stay there place was nice clean and very homey with the French accent. I will try to stay again this place.

I was a little worried since this listing has one review but let me just say everything was perfect! Really a hidden jewel, and trust me every time I come home I’ll be booking this same unit!! Communication was superb, amenities was perfect, nice clean neighborhood, the host was so easy to communicate with and so much more. I could literally go on and on ! I really appreciate everything that this listing offered!!

I had an amazing stay at Missy and Scott’s place, I traveled for work and felt both at peace and right at home every evening I was there. They went above and beyond to ensure everything needed for a great stay was available, whether it be the basics such as laundry detergent or the fine details such as dimming lights in every location of the house. I would highly recommend anyone staying in the area to consider Missy and Scott’s place!

Nice place. The management company does not respond, but luckily the owner was on top of communication.
