We are also just 2 miles from UF campus, the Swamp, and the O`Connell Center.
The owners live next door to the house, and can be easily reached via phone and e-mail.
The shared backyard is fenced in and maintained by the owners, and connects to the backyard of the owners and our other historic rental home (the backyard is meticulously maintained with beautiful seasonal flowers and greenery-- winter is iffy for flowers depending on the weather).
The whole house is for the guests, and the backyard area is shared with 1 other rental house and the owners, and is beautifully maintained.
I allow for self-check in so that guests have privacy, but I`m available anytime I`m needed via phone, e-mail or in person.
Beautiful historic Duckpond neighborhood in downtown Gainesville.
