About this property
Family-Friendly Gainesville Home - Walk to UF - Pool + Sleeps 16
Welcome to The CHOMP HOUSE
A spacious, family-friendly retreat near the University of Florida—designed for comfort, connection, and fun.
Located in a quiet Gainesville neighborhood less than a mile from UF and Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, The CHOMP HOUSE comfortably sleeps up to 16 and is thoughtfully set up for families, graduation visits, and responsible group stays. With a private pool, mini-golf green, and multiple indoor hang-out spaces, there’s room for everyone to relax and enjoy time together.
While the location is ideal for UF weekends, the home itself is intentionally designed for family trips and multi-generation stays—offering a safe layout, dedicated bunk room for kids and teens, and plenty of space to gather without feeling crowded.
