About Joe Honeycutt

We moved to the Jacksonville area in 2001 after too many winters in the Main Line area of Philadelphia. We couldn't be happier with the decision about moving.

Joe Honeycutt purchased this house in 2002
Why Joe Honeycutt chose South Ponte Vedra Beach

Winter's Past is our second home and we enjoy sharing it with families who treat it as their own home. We do not manage any other properties.

Perfect Beach Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: July 4, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
This was one of the nicest beach houses we have ever rented. My family of adult children and grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed everything about this house. The location was perfect for beach activities, trips into St. Augustine, and family friendly local restaurants. The owners made our stay even better than most, prooviding ample beach towels, chairs, boogie boards, and even kites for the children to fly on the beach. The Seranata Beach Club eas an added plus for the pool and the workout activities. You cannot go wrong in renting this house. It will accommodate 10 people easily.

what a wonderful home and place to stay. Walk out door to the beach, drink your coffee on the deck or in a room with the view of the ocean. Clean with all you need. The owner was great from the first contact up to the date we departed. This is a place we will go back to.This is a place I would recommend.

We enjoyed a lovely week in your house; "we" being 2 parents, 2 young adults, 2 college students, and 2 high schoolers, with dogs. Every summer we have a family week at the beaches near St. Augustine...this was the best by far. Beautiful house, unbelievable beach, great food...perfect in every way. We will be back for sure!

The Honeycutts could not be more accommodating for their guests! The house is not only beautifully decorated, but it takes in the vast ocean views unlike any beach property I have visited!
Everyone has a place to go and connect or to be quiet and reflect with just the sounds of the waves. You'll feel as though you are really away from it all, yet so close to all that St. Augustine has to offer. Two great restaurants are very nearby which makes dining out easy.
Winter's Past is not only beautifully decorated, it is immaculately clean, comfortable, and you know you are in good hands as guests of the Honeycutt's.
