Super clean, great location, had everything to make our stay comfortable! The beds were comfy, plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen, loved all the coffee options. We were visiting our daughter at UF and the location was so close to her. She stayed with us and we all appreciated the separate bedroom and extra half bath. We’ll definitely stay here next visit!

Perfect place to stay in GNV. The location was great, walking distance to the brewery and restaurants. The yard was great for our dog, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. would definitely recommend.

We had an amazing stay! The house was exceptionally clean, cozy, and truly felt like a home away from home. The bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept in, which made our stay even more relaxing. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, making it the perfect place to unwind.The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed to cook meals, and it was clear the hosts put a lot of thought into making guests feel comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay.

Great communication from the host. The home is comfortable and conveniently located. The beds were super comfortable and the home was equipped with everything to make a great stay. Please note that the home does not accommodate a walker or wheelchair. There are steps leading to all doors and the bathroom doors are not wife enough to enter with a walker or wheelchair. If no accommodations are needed, this home is perfect for a stay in Gainesville.

Everything provided

Host thought of nearly everything- shampoo, conditioner, body wash, TP, plenty of towels in bathroom. Lots of pillows and blankets. Kitchen had coffee, sugar, salt & pepper, paper towels, and even a roasting pan for Thanksgiving. Thank you!
