EMAIL SENT TO PROP. MANAGER FIRST NIGHT:::: The early check in was cleared and we arrived at 2pm sharp. Maintenance team was here replacing the failed drywall ceiling that fell in 1st floor master. Drywall dust everywhere, garage, front porch, and driveway included. They cleaned and mopped, but still residue throughout 1st floor Being a General Contractor, the last thing I wanted to see upon arrival, and entering the home is construction and debris. Secondly, as were unloading, one of the women working here made a judgmental comment of, “think y’all brought enough stuff”. Lastly, the master suite bathroom clogged frequently of which I plunged, but honestly, I shouldn’t be dealing with any of this. But wait, there’s more: - There’s an entire oven in the 1st floor guest closet, pic attached. - Master suite Owners closet is open with key in deadbolt and light left on, as well as attic ladder pulled down allowing attic heat to dump into the home - Workers left behind tools, materials, and drinks on master fireplace hearth. I just happened to catch them as they were leaving and handed it to them. - Update on owners closet key, maint came back in to stash key in lockbox after I brought the tools left behind, however, proceeds to vocalize where the hiding spot is while I’m standing in the room. -MB tub is dirty, and appears someone “spit” in it - see pic

Our group has been staying at this house every Jan/Feb for the last few years for our annual St. Johns river fishing trip. There is lots of room for our group of 12 guys and the owner is easy to deal with. We plan to return each year and this is the best house on the river in Astor that our group all agrees on staying. Thank you Mark for letting us enjoy this awesome house on the river!

This home is absolutely gorgeous with plenty of room and very clean! We have stayed on St Johns River for the last 15 years for our summer vacation and we finally found a home to stay that accommodated our large family. This was the best vacation to Astor Florida, thanks to this home and hosts. Plenty of room and everyone which was comfortable for our large family. The home is a beautiful lodge makes you feel like you are in the mountains of Montana. Mark and his assistant were such a pleasure to work with and very responsive to any questions we had. Thank you for opening your beautiful home up for families like us. We are already planning our next trip to Astor!

The house and property is large and beautiful. A perfect location to enjoy the river, Lake George, springs, and restaurants on the water. I only want to vent about a few things because if no one tells the owner or property manager, well I guess they will never get fixed. The refrigerator had some sort of leak. Every time you open and close the door it makes a huge U shape puddle on the floor, causing us to slip before we realized what was happening. We ended up moving a large carpet that was in front of the stove to soak up the mess every time we opened the door. In the master bathroom toilet room, there was not a holder for the toilet paper. There were a lot of spider webs inside and especially outside the home and around the boat docks. Spiders ended up getting inside all our boats, we brought 3. I walked right into a LARGE one when I first stepped outside the back door by the jacuzzi. There needs to be more than 1 king size bed. We came with 3 adult couples and all of us brought our kids. There were many beds for them, but the adults having to choose which one of us got the king size bed made it awkward. The upstairs bathroom stopped up anytime any of us had to take a number 2 and had to be plunged each time :-0. The garbage disposal in the kitchen does not work and that side of the sink would back up with dirty water each time you washed the dishes. We called the property manager several times, with no call back. Overall though, we had an awesome stay.

My family and I had a great time at “The Red Roof Inn”. Easy access to the springs by boat and plenty of room for everyone to relax after a long day on the water.

The location of the home and size is wonderful. However, the cleanliness and organization needs some attention. The kitchen was very unorganized and untidy. There were no bath towels throughout the home, only beach towels. We were only given one trash bag for a 4 night stay and no sponge for dishes and no cleaner to wipe the counters etc. The home is is in desperate need of a deep-clean. TVs in bedrooms did not work, plug could not even reach designated receptacle. The Wifi strength was so poor we could not even check emails. We rented the on site pontoon boat but the boat seemed like it had never been cleaned. Carpet on board was filthy, seats and counters were not clean and it just felt very old worn. Overall, we had a great stay and would be okay if it wasn't at such a high price point. For the price per night and size/status of the home we expected more.

Stayed here with husband and kids. We had a great time at this very unique and beautiful property. We had the pleasure of renting the pontoon boat and exploring the St Johns River (the owner Mark made it a smooth process). Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. We brought food and tried a couple of local restaurants as well (definitely worth bringing some food). We will definitely come back!
