About the host

Hosted by Mitch Knutson

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Angela! As a Florida native and Gainesville resident for over 20 years, I truly love introducing guests to the best of our area. I’m a proud double-Gator alumna (Go Gators!), a wife, a mother, and an ER/trauma nurse. When I’m not at the hospital, you’ll find me outdoors on an adventure with my family, inline skating, or exploring local trails. I’m passionate about hosting and can’t wait to help make your stay in Gainesville unforgettable!

Why they chose this property

Safety, serenity, and proximity were our top priorities. This neighborhood is a true hidden gem—a family-friendly pocket where neighbors know each other and the streets are quiet. We love the 'walkability' factor; being able to stroll over to campus or the stadium without dealing with game-day traffic is a massive perk. It’s the ideal home base for visiting parents, alumni, or anyone who wants a secure, tranquil place to recharge after a day of Gator fun and adventure.

What makes this property unique

Our home is a curated celebration of Mid-century Modern design, blending authentic 1950s charm with luxury upgrades. Inside, you’ll find a stylish aesthetic that honors the home’s architectural roots, paired with premium finishes and modern comforts designed for the discerning traveler.

The experience extends to your own private backyard sanctuary. Whether you’re relaxing in our pristine pool or lounging in the screened-in lanai—complete with a large-screen TV for catching the big game or an evening movie—the space is a true retreat. Enjoy the lush Florida landscape from your stylish outdoor living room. Best of all, you are just a short, scenic walk from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, the UF campus, and also a 5-minute walk to Publix. It’s a rare combination of iconic style, modern luxury, and an unbeatable 'park-and-walk' location.
