About the host

Hosted by Crystal Barron

Host profile image

Hello there, traveler! Traveling and exploring new places is one of my favorite things, which is why I started hosting. My goal is to make sure you are as comfortable as possible and that you have everything you need.
I currently reside just North of Houston, Tx. I have lived in the Houston area my entire life, which is why I enjoy traveling so much! I am also an animal lover and if I had the time and space, I would rescue every dog that doesn't have a loving home. All dogs deserve to live on a couch and be completely spoiled!

Why they chose this property

This condo is located close to so many of the attractions that make Gainesville special. Literally only a mile away from downtown, there are many great restaurants, bars and breweries to experience. The University of Florida and Ben Hill Griffin Stadium are just 2 miles away... a quick Uber ride! The Florida Museum, Devil's Millhopper Geological State Park, Butterfly Rainforest at the Florida Museum of Natural History, Harn Museum of Art and many more attractions are just a short drive away.

What makes this property unique

The Gainesville Hideaway is a newly updated and cozy condo just a mile from downtown. It is cheerfully and professionally decorated and has all of the comforts of home. You can enjoy the fully fenced backyard and furnished patio or kick back in the AC with free wifi and Netflix.
