House on Cherry Street
Bed and Breakfast

The House on Cherry Street, overlooking St. Johns River in Jacksonville, Florida, is a Colonial-style house built in 1906 and moved to its present location in 1911. This beautiful home was featured in both the N.Y. Times and Southern Living.

An older, gracious home, the inn is ideal for getaway weekends; business travelers; military friends and guests; Gator Bowl, TPC, Jaguar games, and other special events; St. Vincent's Hospital friends; or wedding guests and family.

Decorated with period antiques, Oriental rugs, a grand piano, baskets, and collectibles, common areas are intriguing as well as invitingly comfortable. Each of the four charming guest rooms, all with private baths, has a sitting area, queen-sized canopy bed with woven coverlet, air conditioning, ceiling fan, fresh flowers, and television. A gourmet breakfast greets you every morning.

After a relaxing cup of tea on the river dock, explore the sights and attractions of this scenic and historical area. Take a self-guided tour of the meditation garden, or venture to St. Augustine or to a nearby beach. Other recreational activities include public tennis, golf, jogging, fishing, and bicycling.

Several antique shows, college football events such as the Gator Bowl and Florida - Georgia game, the River Run, and the Jacksonville Jazz Festival are popular events around the vicinity. Enjoy all of the pleasures of Jacksonville and northeastern Florida, beginning at the House on Cherry Street.
