Orange Park is a relaxed, family-friendly suburb on the St. Johns River that feels quieter than downtown Jacksonville but still has plenty of dining, parks, lakeside trails, and convenient shopping—perfect for travel therapists who want a comfortable, affordable base for multi-week stays.
You’re a short drive from Jacksonville’s major hospitals, cultural attractions and Atlantic beaches, and roughly 30–35 miles from historic St. Augustine, so you get small-town calm with big-city and coastal options nearby.
