Neighborhoods

Avondale is a picturesque historic neighborhood south of downtown on the banks of the St. Johns River. There is an astonishing variety of architectural styles, and a wonderful place for a pleasant stroll under the moss draped live oaks. There is also an area of good restaurants and retail- The Shoppes of Avondale- all within walking distance of the guesthouse.
