Summer 2025 Regional Convention of Jehovah 's Witnesses
We were in the city to attend our Summer RC. Because l am directionally challenged, l looked for the closest place and found it with Vrbo . We were very pleased with the accommodations. And the attention to historicity of the house and its furnishings with all the modern conveniences we've come to love. . We look forward to our stay next year if once again we are assigned Jacksonville as our site. Thanx Melody for all of your gracious responses to our inquiries. The Copeland's.....till next time.
This historic house was perfect for my sister's surprise murder mystery party. I didn't have to decorate anything. Not pictured is the dining room that seats 6. We pulled up two extra chairs and everyone sat comfortably. Everyone was in character and we felt transported back in time. Clean up and close out was very straight forward. The house was the key to the party success and I am so glad I found it.
The Sugar Magnolia House is a wonderful and unique turn of the century home to transport you back to the 1920's. Even though all the furnishings and decorations have the vintage charm, the home is yet furnished with the modern conveniences of air conditioning and wifi. From the large front porch to the extensive backyard, this space can be used for any family or occasion, big or small. The host was very accomodating and awesome. I highly recommend this getaway home!
We stayed here while we were in town for a speech and debate tournament being held in downtown Jacksonville. Was a perfect location and not far from the church. Loved the house. Beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. Was like stepping back in time.
I cannot express how totally wonderful our experience was... From our wonderful host, to the atmosphere of this stunning house, our dreams came to life!
The stay was great and Melody was the perfect host. We enjoyed the location, warmer evenings on the front porch. The house is comfortable yet elegant and so accommodating! We will be back!
Love this beautiful home. The home has a wonderful 1920s feel. The house was clean, the kitchen had everything needed to make a meal and bedâs were comfortable. Plus plenty of towels in each room. The historical home is about 2 miles away from the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena which was perfect for our trip. The lovely front porch with swing and the sitting area in the back yard make a great place to enjoy your morning coffee which was provided.
We had an excellent stay in Jacksonville with family. Attended the Packers - Jaguars game which added to the fun. Home was a true Victorian experience.
This place was great!! Easy check in & great communication!!!
Held our group well for a short labor day weekend trip to the zoo.
We so enjoyed the backyard grill & front porch.
Great neighborhood & we just loved the house.
The location was 10 mins from everywhere
The wwanted to go
Will absolutely stay again in beautiful historic home
I was so impressed with Sugar Magnolia House! These beautiful pictures don't do justice to the home's raw potential. I am local so I will absolutely come again! It was the perfect location for my birthday murder mystery dinner party and all of my guests were so impressed and amazed at the home's beauty.
The home was fully stocked with everything I could need, toilet paper, plenty of towels, pots, pans, and even seasonings. The ice maker was a game changer and saved me so much time.
I stayed at Sugar Magnolia House for a weekend with some friends for a girlâs trip. The property owner was so kind and helpful. The house was decorated beautifully and the historic notes were preserved really well. We loved exploring everything and enjoyed time in what we coined the âred room.â So fun!
Beautiful home in the Springfield neighborhood with so much charm and character. Close to restaurants. Walkability of the neighborhood is excellent even in the Florida summer as the streets are lined with majestic oaks. Melody is an A+++ host. We will definitely be back.
Great house with a lot of history. You could spend hours looking at the historic pieces throughout the house. Beds were super comfortable, great host, very responsive. Would definitely come back next time we are in town.
We absolutely loved the place! The kids didnât want to leave, they had so many rooms to explore and enjoyed just lounging around and relaxing. The house is beautiful, huge and was very clean! We were provided plenty of towels and soap. The kitchen also provided everything we needed to cook a meal. We would definitely love to stay again in the near future!
We loved our stay and the host was so kind and gave us a bottle of wine for our anniversary. The pictures on VRBO for this property donât give it justice. This home is beautiful with such old charm and modern technology. We enjoyed the kitchen and the sunroom for breakfast and made dinner Friday night and ate at the big dining room table. Also easy to travel to the beach and back with ease. Found a great place for our Saturday night dinner only minutes away. Love, love this place.
