Cozy Little CottageMy husband and I wanted a place within walking distance to The Swamp and this cottage was perfect! It was easy to find, had a dedicated parking spot off the road and had all of the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. It was a short walk to the UF campus, restaurants and shopping. The hosts, Janine & Ella, were very kind and responsive. 10/10 Great stay!

Perfect for our quick visit to UF

This studio apartment was the perfect location and had everything we needed for our three night stay to get our newest student settled in and started with classes. The apartment felt like it was brand new and the owners were super helpful and friendly. Very easy to walk to campus and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip!

Perfect Spot

I stayed in this wonderful bungalow while visiting my daughter at UF. It took me back to my college years living amongst the students. Walking distance to the university. So nice my daughter stayed with me, and now wants to rent it for the Fall semester. Thank you.

Gator game!

Had a quick weekend in Gainesville, took my girls and husband to their first Gator game. Great location. Walking to everything campus. Cutest little cottage and very nice amenities. Pull out couch is little- my 8 and 10 year old daughters fit just fine. Owners were so nice and reached out to make sure we had everything we needed. Thinking we will return if we are lucky enough to get to a Gator game next year!
