Kick back for some time away and all the comforts of home. Our pet-friendly retreat is in the heart of Gainesville, within minutes of mid-town and the University of Florida. Take a few backroads on your way to watch Gator football at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, or walk to nearby Ring Park for a stroll along Hogtown Creek. And don't forget fido when you head to our dog-friendly city. Our fenced-in backyard will give your pup plenty of room to play!

We are dog lovers, travelers and foodies who love finding hidden gems as we explore new places.

Our open concept kitchen, dining and living room area make for cozy conversation and plenty of time with your family and friends. Stream your favorite movie or show from our Smart TV, or enjoy your favorite read as you settle down for some R&R.

If you're like us, your canine companions are part of the family and love the chance to explore new territory. Our fenced-in private back yard will give your pup a chance to stretch their legs and enjoy a little time beneath the pines and magnolias!

Perfect stay close to UF!

This was a perfect house for the week, for our work close to the University. I found the beds to be comfortable and great to find that there was coffee and dishes/pans/etc to use in the home for cooking. The host was friendly and the home was perfect for the two of us. Thank you again!

Nice house for our stay

We spent a few days in the area for my husband to go to the race track. We brought our pugs and it was very pet friendly and a nice neighborhood to walk them. All the utensils needed to cook, just add food and condiments. The fenced in sitting area was nice to relax and soak up some sun while it was out. Plenty of linens and having the washer and dryer was a plus to keep up with laundry. The beds, pillows and comforters were really comfy too. We had a relaxing few days here and enjoyed our stay.
