This stay went so smooth. Paul was a great host and the property was exactly what I needed for the weekend. The hot tub was a great way to wind down each night after long hours of showing horses. I would definitely recommend and would book again!

The chalet was nice and clean! It was a bit warm when I arrived but I cranked the AC and it cooled pretty quickly though it was a bit warm in the loft still. The couch in living room was a bit “tired” and needs some TLC but it did the job. There were a few spiders crawling around, but I suppose that is expected with the location near the creek. The hot tub was nice and relaxing (and clean). Grill worked as expected! Paul was always very responsive from the beginning and a great host. Make sure to ignore the WiFi connection details in the pre-arrival email because it does not match what is in the hospitality guide inside the unit. That has the actual WiFi details you need. Would recommend if you’re in the area!

Very charming place, cozy and very well kept. The host is very attentive to your needs. They even shovel the snow in the porch for me. Very much recommend. Beware that there is a steep ladder to the bedroom who is on the second floor.

My Second Home

Another great stay at this gem. My only complaint was hearing non stop barking from a neighboring property, otherwise my stay was perfect and will continue to use this gem as a home away from home.

Thank you, Sheree. I regret the barking dogs problem. I have tried to address it, but without much success. Hopefully it will be less of a problem during your next visit.

Nice little getaway

Wish we would have been able to enjoy the space outside, it rained the whole time.... the unit is set up very nice, the back yard has the hot tub, separate deck, lots of furniture, and in a great location.

Relaxing retreat

I really enjoyed being on this property. The scenery was perfect. I enjoyed my coffee every morning by the creek. We enjoy the family barbecue and everybody thought it was awesome. Paul was exceptional. We will definitely be back hoping to be back in December. Thank you, Paul for all you did.

Beautiful space - just cold

The hot tub was great, and the place was very clean. I’m sure this place would be even better in the summer. However, the lack of heat in the entire downstairs was lacking for our winter getaway. The small space heaters helped a bit.

Stephanie, thank you for your visit and your review. You were a great guest, and I only regret that your visit coincided with the January arctic blast that dropped temperatures to record lows all over the country, including Findlay! I'm sorry that the mini-split heating system and the two space heaters I provided weren't better able to defend you from the frigid temperatures.

Nice getaway!

Paul was highly communicative throughout the process. This is a great little spot - with everything (and I mean, EVERYTHING) nearby. We loved the loft bedroom and deck but could see how this could be an issue for some people. We enjoyed being on the UF campus and having downtown right down the street!
