Property Description

Featured in Dwell Mag. Welcome to Katie's Light, our classic New England style home in Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island. Enjoy this 3-bedroom, 2.5 bathroom beachfront escape with a wrap-around deck and uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean. Only steps to the sand through your own private access through the dunes. Watch the dolphins swim along the coast or walk the Egan's Creek to spot migrating birds. Just 5 minutes to historic downtown with great local restaurants and shopping year round. Katie's Light is an Amelia Island landmark. Built by wooden-boat builders in the 80s' the home is an homage to the Lighthouses of New England. The house sits on stilts and has space for up to 4 cars to park. A deck at the bottom of the main stairs has an outdoor shower and foot washing station. Our beach toy cabinet filled with boogie boards, skim boards and various sand-castle building tools is also on the deck for easy beach access. Up the stairs you will find our 360-degree wrap-around deck with Adirondack chairs and tables, the perfect place to spend the day. The main floor of the house features an open-floor plan. Inside, the kitchen features a new four-burner stove and oven, large refrigerator and freezer and dishwasher. As fellow coffee lovers we also have included a drip coffee machine, french press and Bialetti Moka pot. The dining room has huge table with seating for 8 to easily get the whole family around. Downstairs, you will also find our TV and library nook. A 50-inch Samsung smart TV and soundbar is out of the way of the main living space so the house doesn't get taken over if somebody is watching a movie. The nook also holds our library collection with tons of great books including mystery novels, American classics and even our photo books of classic Florida and architecture. Downstairs also has a half-bath, open living room with a super cozy couch and chairs and desk for writing emails if you need. With wifi speeds of 600mb download streaming and work is easy. A center spiral staircase connects the upstairs where the three bedrooms are. All three bedrooms have king-sized beds. One bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The other two rooms share a bathroom. We've recently renovated and put all high-end bedding, linens and furniture in. Beach front living at it's best. One of the coolest and most original homes on the island.About pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 10:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.About customRules:Guests may not use surfboards hanging from the ceiling..About checkIn:Check in after 4:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 25.About events:No events allowed.

We loved every minute of it but If you have a toddler I do not recommend because of the spiral staircase. It was scary going up and down with the baby.

Beautifully designed home We had a great stay! The property manager was completely proactive in making sure our stay was pleasant and comfortable. She completely understood that our stay would be impacted by a city lead work project occurring. She immediately contacted us, offered her apologies abs made sure we were still okay with moving fairways with our reservation. I would absolutely recommend reserving this home for your next vacation! Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Perfect fall We stayed for 3 weeks everything was absolutely perfect. This is about our 10th stay over 17 years. As usual…. Wonderful to be on the beach in this cozy place.

Better than Disney Tickets 2 nights was not enough time to enjoy this experience named after a New York lighthouse keeper "Mind the Light, Kate." From 1890 to 1919, Kate Walker did the work of 3 men as she saved many lives from being shipwrecked. Her life was hard unlike the comfortable, well appointed quasi replica with outstanding view of beach and ocean. Travelers will be transported.

First class vacation rental I fell in love with this property the minute I walked ithrough the door. The property is gorgeous and professionally decorated even the smallest details. I have never been in a rental with so many extras available to the renter. I will return again to Katie's Lighthouse.
