About Marlee Krohn
I grew up in Atlanta and have been visiting the island all my life! It is still as pristine as it was all those years ago! The memories are all wonderful and a lot of the island and the establishments are still here!!! My whole family visits again and again! We all can't get enough of our home and the island!!!
Marlee Krohn purchased this cottage in 1998
Why Marlee Krohn chose North East Florida
It spoke to us as soon as we walked in! It needed a lot of TLC but there is something wonderful and calming about this lovely home! Not to mention, that is SO VERY CLOSE to the ocean!!! Our home is 'one of a kind' and never disappoints!
What makes this cottage unique
The simplicity and the views and the possibilities made us fall in love with our home! We made all those dreams come true when we renovated our home roof to sand! We kept the integrity of our home; keeping the wood ceiling, walls and floors and bringing them back to their original beauty and added the modern conveniences. The views are magnificent everywhere in our home! The outside decks are breath taking! It's an incredible home and we love sharing it!!!
Guestbook comments from the owner
"In our twelve years of visiting Amelia Island this is the most tastefully decorated, cleanest, and most comfortable beach home we've rented. The owners have extended great hospitality to us and made sure that every detail of our stay was covered, from all the home supplies to arrival gifts such as a wonderful breakfast basket. We would love to rent this home year after year."

Reviews
Wonderful!
4.9/5 -
(32 traveller reviews)
Breathtaking home! Beachfront delight. Perfect location.
We stayed here in August 2016 with our two children (5 years old and 10 months old) for our first visit to Ameila island. The house is breathtaking. Directly on the beach, with windows all around and a master bedroom which seems to float over the sand dunes.
Perfect location to explore Fort Clinch (less than 1 mile jog to park entrance), downtown Fernandina Beach, or just step outside and enjoy the ocean.
The owner has truly thought of everything. Full kitchen with everything organized, high quality towels and sheets, beach equipment, a nice outdoor shower, and of course the interior design (you can see on the listing) is amazing.
Owner was available instantly by phone to handle check in, answer questions about the area, and even helped coordinate delivery of some baby supplies (crib, beach stroller) before our arrival.
Highly recommend this unique property. Not to be missed!
PS: If traveling with kids, we used baby's away and rented a full size crib, beach stroller and high chair. Delivered to the house in good condition and saved us having to travel with these items.
Great location, beautiful interiors!
Adorable older beach cottage! The owners were great hosts and the proximity to the water was incredible!
Great Place to Stay!! The view is magnificent!
It was Charming, Cozy and comfortable, with everything you need right there waiting for you. And RIGHT ON THE BEACH!. The Sunrises alone are worth the visit. I highly recommend this great house.
A hidden gem!
We were thrilled with our accommodations at this cottage! The owner has made it SO comfortable and welcoming, more like a boutique hotel really. The decor is relaxing and "beachy" (our descriptive word for it), a large, well stocked bathroom with plenty of towels and essentials, beach towels, fresh bed linens in the well decorated, cozy bedrooms, and a well appointed kitchen! It was great to have coffee each morning from the deck right on the beach, dolphin watching, shell hunting. Very private. Our girls group spent much of our time, when we weren't exploring the gorgeous beach and lovely town of Fernandina Beach, reading, talking, and playing games on the sun porch filled with light from the wall of windows directly facing the beach and ocean. The weather although very sunny, was windy and chilly during some of our stay. The one and ONLY suggestion we had: the sun porch would benefit from a window upgrade so the view is clear. The interior panes in the current windows are quite foggy. Nevertheless, it was cozy and inviting! This cottage is in a pristine area of Fernandina Beach where life is quiet, making it a great getaway for a family, friends, girls getaway, and couples. Thank you Marlee! We enjoyed every moment, and WILL be back!
Everything we wanted and more!
From beginning to end our experience in renting and staying at this beautiful beach house was nothing short of perfection. Marlee, the owner, is surely one of the kindest, friendliest, most accommodating people I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. The beach house itself far exceeded our expectations. We spent quite a bit of time admiring the decor and charming little details embedded around the home. As a neat-freak, I was thrilled to find the home extremely clean and without a hint of mustiness or mildew -- a thing very difficult to achieve in a humid locale! Marlee thought of everything, for guests enjoyment there are books, board games, beach chairs, towels, and small toiletries available. We have nothing negative to add to this review and do whole-heartedly recommend this sweet beach house to everyone!
Quaint, comfortable, and beautiful home for a weekend getaway
Beautiful home right on the water with so many cute details. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Marlee and family, for sharing your incredible home with us!
