Cozy Townhouse; Close to Military Bases & Beaches

You will feel at home in this newly renovated, fully equipped 2-bedroom townhouse in a quiet neighborhood on the New River. The second-floor deck off the master bedroom is a great place to enjoy morning coffee or a toast at day's end, with a hint of a water view.

The master bedroom features a queen bed, with 2 twin beds in the second bedroom. Kitchen appliances, including a dishwasher, are stainless.
If the weather isn't conducive to walking, you can burn a few calories on the stationary bike.

This home is in a quiet neighborhood of attached homes directly on the New River. A public park features a playground, basketball and tennis courts. The neighborhood also benefits from the adjacent managed open space. The nearby Sturgeon City Environmental Education Center highlights the wetlands restoration of the Wilson Bay Initiative. Walk the boardwalk trails, visit the playground, picnic areas, and kayak launch while learning about the local wildlife.
This home is 1 mile from the historic center of Jacksonville, 6 miles from the Camp Lejeune Main Gate, and 14 miles from the Albert C. Ellis Airport.

We stayed here for an extended weekend to visit our son in the marine corps. The house was neat, modern, clean and cozy. The owners had books, board games, outdoor games, indoor games, TV, DVD's, a fire pit, and a Playstation 3. Plenty for the whole family to do. The owners were attentive to our needs, texted a few times to make sure we had all that we needed, but also were not overbearing and gave us plenty of space to enjoy ourselves. We would definitely consider staying with them again

I had a rough week, but had to help my Marine move home halfway across the country. This stay provided comfort amidst the chaos. It made me wish this trip was for pleasure. This home would be perfect for a family (or couple) getaway.

For small to medium sized families, this is a great pick. Although the place is close to other properties, the location is great just across the street from the water. The hosts make sure there is plenty to do inside the place by providing board games, gaming consoles, TVs with Roku, and lots of toys for kids.

Arrived late evening, had some miscommunication on accessing the property prior to arriving. Information was quickly re-sent prior to arriving. Place was spacious, resembled the pictures accurately. Only had 1 trash bag available for a 7 day stay. And the outside container was quite full. Sunsets from the upper deck were nice. Neighborhood was quiet an felt safe.

Quick Getaway

We were in town for a few days for a family event. I loved that we were able to bring our pups and that there were dog bowls provided for them. The attention to small details made by the owners made it such that we didn't need to buy alot of the things that we've had to in other rentals. The owners were quick to respond to any questions or we had.

Beautiful get away in North Carolina

This stay away from home was the most magical experience I’ve had in awhile. The house was gorgeous and spacious for me and finance and the views from every window were happy and inviting. The house itself had all the necessary amenities and was very comfortable. It was only me and my fiancé and we stayed for 3 nights but I will definitely plan to come here again if we are back in town. It’s near camp lejunee about 20 minute drive and also 20 minutes to the airport and the best beach. Lots of great breakfast joints 5 minutes away and awesome spots for shopping as well. Thank you so much!

Family Favorite

New River Retreat was a sweet space for our family of 4. It was clean and so family friendly. Our 8 year old loved the basketball hoops and the gaming system. We all enjoyed the board games. The small details were my favorite, it made it a great space to wake up and get ready for our day and to come back in the evening to enjoy winding down our day together. I loved how open it was, but also had space upstairs if someone wanted time alone. It was a super easy drive to beautiful North Topsail Beach. The hosts were so accommodating and had information all in one area of the house.
