"Green Cove Springs"

We loved how quaint Green Cove was. It was right on the water so the parks were just amazing. The houses were a beautiful Floridian style and there was quite a bit of grandfather moss every where you looked. Sunsets and sunrises were absolutely to die for here.

  • Family Friendly:
  • Pet Friendly: Yes
  • Recommended: Yes
  • Recommendations: I recommend it for families that are looking to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city. You're still within driving distance of Jacksonville, Florida but you're pushed back enough that you're not seeing any of the busy city traffic. Houses are cheap and I would seriously check yourself before you buy here since the resale market is not as high as it once was. Schools are good, but not great.
