About this property

Bright 3BR, Dog Friendly, Fenced Yard, FSU & Downtown

Bright and eclectic 3BR retreat just minutes from FSU, Doak Stadium, FAMU, and downtown! Relax in cozy queen beds, stream your favorites on Smart TVs, and stay cool with ceiling fans in every room. Fast Wi-Fi, a fun foosball table, and a fenced yard for your pup make it the perfect Tallahassee home base for game days and getaways!

We like to give our guests space, so will only check in once or twice. However, we are always responsive and around the corner should a need arise.
We do require guests to sign our rental agreement. The rental agreement comes available after booking is complete. The rental agreement comes available after booking is complete. We allow cancellation with a full refund (-4% processing fee for VRBO guests), within 2 hours of booking if guest doesn't agree to terms outlined in rental agreement. Once the 2 hour review window has closed, the cancellation policy is in effect.

This home sits on a VERY quiet street in a neighborhood with only 6 other homes occupied by friendly long term homeowners. There is practically NO traffic (foot or vehicular), so please respect the serenity and minimize outside disturbances. I spend a lot of time at the property, always enjoy it and always feel safe. With that said this home is in a culturally rich neighborhood near the university. Like most neighborhoods near the university, the area reflects the diversity of Tallahassee. Guests who appreciate authentic community settings will find it a comfortable place to stay.

There is a Wi-Fi smart lock on the front door, which will open at the time of your reservation with a code. The code will be included with check-in instructions to your email and SMS prior to arrival.

Originally built in 1949, this home has been thoughtfully restored while retaining many of its original characteristics, including solid brick interior walls and a traditional floor plan typical of homes from that era. Guests looking for the charm of an older home with modern updates tend to love this property. Just minutes away from restaurants, entertainment and the bustle of college town. The block it sits on is off the main street and shares this quiet block with only 6 other homes.

We recommend using a vehicle, although everything is really very close

Local residents (Leon, Wakulla, Jefferson, Gadsden counties), must disclose so before booking and send a request.
Please do not disturb or traverse on the steps or balcony of the vacant property. The balcony and steps are unsafe.

We may be able to offer earlier check in for $25, however, a request must be authorized first.
We may also be able to accommodate a late check out for $25, however, a request must be authorized first. Unauthorized late check out fee is $50/ half hour. We are dog friendly for well behaved house trained dogs. Limit of 3 dogs. ONLY Dogs! We charge a fee of $65 per dog per reservation/stay. The home has its own private, fully fenced backyard exclusively for this home. Please note that while neighboring homes are visible beyond the fence, the yard itself is not shared with anyone else. The yard is natural rather than landscaped, with mature shade trees, sticks, and natural ground cover. If you're looking for a lush grassy yard for pets, one of our other homes may be a better fit. Our cleaners obtain digital proof after cleaning and prior to each guests' arrival assuring that everything is clean and in place for a wonderful stay. Any failed payments within 30 days of check-in may result in cancellation of reservation. We are FIRM with the cancellation policy. PLEASE obtain travel insurance and we will be happy to assist you with a claim. We cannot refund for cancellations that are outside of the refund period. We employ Wynd sentry detectors which will alert us if any kind of smoking is detected. Guest understands that reservation will be immediately terminated without refund if we are alerted by the detectors. There is an additional $500 fee for smoke remediation if smoking occurs or manages to permeate the inside the property. Inconsiderate guests that ruin the space for others with their smoking have necessitated we take these measures. We recommend that careless smokers find a more accommodating space to book.
***Accessibility Note: This home is an older property and was not designed to modern accessibility standards. Bathroom doorways are narrower than those found in many newer homes and may not accommodate some wheelchairs, walkers, or other mobility devices. Guests with accessibility needs are encouraged to look for alternate accommodations.
We do require guests to sign our rental agreement. The rental agreement comes available after booking is complete. We allow cancellation with a full refund within 2 hours of booking (-4% processing fee for VRBO guests), if guest doesn't agree to terms outlined in rental agreement.
