We loved this cute little house. The host was very easy to communicate with. We were in town to watch our Aggies play football against the gators. This property was in the perfect spot for our weekend stay.

We stayed at the “Peach house” for the gator FB opening game with another couple. Our stay was fantastic. We each had our own separate bedroom and bathroom, yet so much nicer than staying in a hotel. The house was clean and updated and Jennifer was great to work with. We will definitely stay again in the future.

We stayed for 3 nights during our gator’s graduation. Host thought of everything- bathrobes in each bedroom, flowers in kitchen. Only suggestion would be a booklet listing house info- WiFi listing, garbage etc- instead of proving that info in a link that our college kid helped us download- lol! Lovely home and great stay.

Visited for the weekend from Cincinnati with my daughter and niece, both of whom had a campus tour at UF on Fri. We all loved the Peach house! It was very clean and well decorated! The host provided clear instructions; and I particularly enjoyed the complimentary local coffee, which was delicious! We also enjoyed the local grocery store, Ward’s, which had an outstanding selection of fresh produce and craft beer. Given how much the girls loved UF, I may be reserving the Peach house again!

My husband and I stayed at the Peach House for a week while visiting our daughter. This is a lovely property, extremely clean and comfortable and within walking distance to town. The beds were very comfortable and the whole house welcoming and pleasant. Very well stocked kitchen and nice back yard. The front porch is a great place to relax with morning coffee or a glass of wine. The house is very well appointed -- we found everything we needed. Lots of great closet space and 2 full baths and one 1/2 bath was a great convenience. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Gainesville.

The host was very helpful and responsive. Had no issues with our 3 nights stay. Good location if wanting close to downtown and campus. Few shady houses in the neighborhood but was still very quiet and safe. Helps that the police station is just around corner 😁. Will stay there again when in town!

This was one our best VRBO stays! The property was beautiful inside and out! We only used the king bed, and it was so comfortable! Jennifer was great keeping in contact with us and we hope to stay there again!

The house was charming..very clean. Great location. Walkable to UF campus (long walk but doable) and easy walk to downtown. I would stay again in a heartbeat. Neighborhood is up and coming...some homes in the area are dilapidated but many are being renovated. I felt safe. Wish ckeck in was a bit earlier and checkout was a bit later (3pm and 11 am) similar to hotels. But with that being said...i would stay again. You will ne first look on my next trip to Gainesville.

The property was as described and perfect for the weekend adventure. Close enough to walk into town and never needed the car. Neighborhood was quiet, people super friendly. Look forward to next time!

We were in town for my son’s final chemo infusion and then surgery to remove his port at UF Children’s Hospital. Location was great and the house was comfy. Great location in our adopted town of Gainesville. 5 star stay for sure. Thanks Jennifer you made it easy.

We were a group of 4 parents visiting our new Gators for the weekend. The house is very cute and worked well for us. Our kids were able to join us for dinner and the backyard made for a nice place to hang out and catch up. It is conveniently located close to campus, the neighborhood is in transition, so there are neglected homes mixed with homes that have been renovated. Overall a great option when staying in Gainesville.

Stayed at the Peach House while my husband was having surgery at Shands, it was the perfect retreat after visiting hours ended. It was clean, I loved the front porch and back yard space. The neighbors were giving away free mangoes. We had a lovely stay where the family could relax.
