The house was in a great location, only a quick 10-15 minute ride to campus, the football stadium, grocery store and restaurants. The house was very nice, had all the essentials, comfy beds, fluffy towels and the kitchen was well stocked(e.g. plenty of mugs, glasses, bowls, with some coffee kcups, sugar…) The neighborhood was quiet, a nice place to relax on the back patio. The host was very helpful and quick to reply to questions. I would stay here again.

Great stay

The house was in a great neighborhood not far from UF. It's listed as 4 bed 4.5 bath but there is only 3.5 bathrooms. The owner was very easy to communicate with but the property wasn't quite ready for us upon arrival. Other than that I highly recommend staying at this property!

A Life Saver!!

We had to evacuate our dementia residents during Hurricane Milton to a facility in Gainesville, so I rented this house for some of our staff. I cannot say enough great things about the owner and her willingness to bend over backwards to accommodate our group. A thousand thank yous and we will definitely rent again if we're ever back in Gainesville!

Great House and Location!

We were in Gainesville to meet family and go to the Gator football game. The house was immaculate and lots of space. Loved the outside area but we did not have much time to spend out there. The owner was great to work with and the entire process went very smooth. We already tried to rent it again for another weekend but it was already booked. We will diffently stay here again.
