About this property

Ideal for 1-2 people, The Hideaway is peaceful with plants, plenty of windows and natural light. Spend your afternoon with a good book & relax in the hammock. This is by far, my most favorite space! If you've had an adventurous day & coming home late, the private courtyard will be automatically lit after dark.

When you decide it's time to hit the hay, pull the blackout curtains and nestle under the quilt on a brand new queen gel mattress. You won't want to get up but when you do... the coffee and tea area is stocked and ready for you!

We hope we've thought of everything but please let us know if you need more than the following:

>Plenty of fresh towels & wash cloths
>Shampoo, conditioner & body soap
>Kitchen gadgets for preparing meals
>Utensils & basic spices
>Cutting boards
>Sharp knives
>Drip coffee maker, filters, cream & sugar
>Coffee, tea & cocoa
>Microwave
>Ironing board & iron
>Extra blankets
>Board games & cards

Hoggtown Hideaway is an attached suite connected to our other short term rental, The Gator Getaway. Your living space, parking and yard are separate & private. Its likely you’ll never see the other guests.

Traveling with your pet? We welcome your whole family! Fenced yard and walkable neighborhood makes your stay equally enjoyable for your pet and you! Please, only canines with current vaccinations and flea control.

Lastly, the bed and pull out couch share the same room however; more adventurous sleepers can "crash" on the futon or hammock in the garden room.

*** Hoggtown Hideaway is comfortably kept cool with 2 window unit AC’s. In the colder months we offer space heaters.

Send us a message for any special requests. We'll do what we can to make them happen. We want your stay to be the very best!

Cute place

Nice amenities in the unit and the hosts were so helpful. Well cared for and very nice neighborhood. The pups gave it three paws 🐾. Would definitely come back here again.

Last minute stay

We decided to spend the weekend in Gainesville less than 24 hours prior to our arrival. Lisa worked with me and the VRBO site to book our stay. The home was was suitable for our family of three and the courtyard gave our two small dogs a place to roam. We didn't use the kitchen, but the bathroom was well-supplied.

Sun and solitude

The pictures matched. Check in and check out was quick and easy. Communication with the owner was clear and quick. The area is nicely secluded and was pretty quiet for the weekend of Gator Nationals while being close to major shopping areas for groceries, food, etc. When I have more time and a less solemn reason to visit, I definitely would stay here again and bring my mom back too.

No heat. Host did not tell us about portable heaters stored in laundry room. No way to contact her. Very cold first night. Bed had thin covering. Next day we found extra blankets in a basket. Again, host did not advise us of blankets. Again, no way to contact host. Second night we used the portable heaters, but electricity went out when we tried to use the microwave. Gas stove barely had a flame. .Again no way to contact host.this place was so miserable that we cut our stay short and returned home a day early.
