The BF Dowell Home was charming with very unique architecture and beautiful landscaped gardens! There were daily sightings of deer to entertain us! Plenty of outside space and places to relax! Jacksonville was a beautiful small town and we could walk to most of the places we wanted to visit! Walking trails were close by as well as numerous wineries!

We had a wonderful weekend in Jacksonville with family wine tasting throughout Jacksonville. The location of the property is ideal, walking distance to downtown, coffee, and Back Porch BBQ. The market across the street was super helpful for all the food and drink items...no pre-packing needed. Beautiful old victorian, very clean, and all the amenities were there. We will definitely return!

Quaint two night stay to visit family in the area. Home was period decorated with colorful wall coverings and fixtures. This home also had all the comforts of home, equipped kitchen, games and great porch. Would love to visit again in the summer. Walking to town for dinner and coffe was very easy. Drove and hiked nearby forest park. Great getaway.
