About this apartment rental
Hoggtown Hideaway provides the perfect tranquility you need after a long day. Featuring a garden room with a hammock and lots of windows, it is a very peaceful spot.
Only 1.8 miles from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and 4 miles from both Shands and NFRMC. The house sits in the host's childhood neighborhood. Enjoy the convenience of being tucked away in a bubble of good old fashion neighborhood charm.
Ideal for 1-2 people, The Hideaway is peaceful with plants, plenty of windows and natural light. Spend your afternoon with a good book & relax in the hammock. This is by far, my most favorite space! If you've had an adventurous day & come home late, the courtyard will be automatically lit after dark.
At bed time, pull the blackout curtains and nestle under the quilt on a queen gel mattress. You won't want to get up but when you do... the coffee and tea area is stocked and ready for you!

The television is a 65” smart TV. We have an antenna but do not offer cable. Feel free to log into your own streaming services. We hope you enjoy the many choices offered by this “way-smarter-than-me” TV! If you’re looking for a special live athletic event, we suggest Gator Dockside right around the corner! Try the wings!
Send us a message for any special requests. We'll do what we can to make them happen. We want your stay to be the very best at The Hoggtown Hideaway!
Your driveway is on the right side of the front yard. There is room for two vehicles. One on the driveway in front of the house and the other on the concrete pad under the cover. This will make complete sense when you arrive.
I am just a phone call or a text away!
Quiet neighborhood and very walkable. Walk your family to the park, to the woods, to the stadium or even to dinner!
Ride share services like Uber are available as well as public transportation. There is a bus stop at the end of the block. If you’re headed a little further to explore local springs or adventure farther to theme parks, Hwy441 and I-75 are easily accessible from the house.
Hoggtown Hideaway is an attached suite connected to The Gator Getaway, also a short term rental. Your living space, parking and yard are private and likely, you will not see the other guests.
Traveling with your pet? We welcome your whole family! Fenced yard and walkable neighborhood makes your stay equally enjoyable for you and your pet. Please, only animals with current vaccinations and flea control.
Lastly, if bringing a third person, the bed and pull out couch share the same room. More adventurous sleepers can "crash" on the futon or hammock in the garden room.
We ask that you treat the house and neighborhood with respect.
Observe quiet hours 10pm-7am
Park in designated areas.
No smoking or vaping inside or on the premises.
Parties will not be tolerated.
Only registered guests permitted.
For families bringing pets, we welcome up to two canines. Additional pets can be presented for approval. Unapproved pets will result unfavorably. We appreciate that you pick up poops. This provides a more sanitary yard for all our guests.
With all that said, ultimately, we ask you enjoy and make great memories while you’re here!

Lisa's place had everything I needed for comfortable stay, including a well-stocked kitchen, bathtub and couch for lounging. Communication was prompt and I felt well looked after. A great place to stay if you enjoy privacy, but want convenience too!

We weren't in town for football, which is apparently a big deal in that neck of the woods, but it was a perfect location to commute to a music festival in Reddick. Nestled in a very quiet neighborhood but less than 10 minutes from any major shopping/restaurant you would need. It was too hot to enjoy the courtyard but I'm sure it would be great in the fall.

Nice amenities in the unit and the hosts were so helpful.
Well cared for and very nice neighborhood. The pups gave it three paws 🐾. Would definitely come back here again.

We decided to spend the weekend in Gainesville less than 24 hours prior to our arrival. Lisa worked with me and the VRBO site to book our stay. The home was was suitable for our family of three and the courtyard gave our two small dogs a place to roam. We didn't use the kitchen, but the bathroom was well-supplied.

The pictures matched. Check in and check out was quick and easy.
Communication with the owner was clear and quick.
The area is nicely secluded and was pretty quiet for the weekend of Gator Nationals while being close to major shopping areas for groceries, food, etc.
When I have more time and a less solemn reason to visit, I definitely would stay here again and bring my mom back too.

No heat. Host did not tell us about portable heaters stored in laundry room. No way to contact her. Very cold first night. Bed had thin covering. Next day we found extra blankets in a basket. Again, host did not advise us of blankets. Again, no way to contact host. Second night we used the portable heaters, but electricity went out when we tried to use the microwave. Gas stove barely had a flame. .Again no way to contact host.this place was so miserable that we cut our stay short and returned home a day early.

The place looks exactly like the pictures. We loved the hideaway. It was close to everything, restaurants, UF, shopping, etc. Lisa was super helpful, accommodating, and reachable. We loved it there, it was a home away from home❤️

The location was perfect for anything you need. A very peaceful environment. The landlord went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

A nice clean property convenient to the University and all it has to offer. The home provided perfect accommodations for my wife and I.

I came down for the month of March to join my horses who shipped to Ocala in January. I needed a place where I could efficiently work remotely, a yard for my westie to play in, a kitchen to cook and not need to go out all the time, and a safe and chill location. The Hideaway was all of these things and more. Equally important was the the attentiveness and kindness of the host, Lisa. Top ratings across the board! I have never been away from home or my husband for so long, and where I stayed was going to be a huge factor on whether the experience was a success or not, and I am happy to say it was absolutely fabulous! <3 Cole

Stayed more than two months in this real gem in central Gainesville, quietly hidden away and yet most convenient to University of Florida and Gainesville’s wealth of conveniences, sites, shopping, and dining. Hospitality from the property manager was exemplary, from response to property issues to flexibility with my rental arrangements. I give my highest recommendation for customer service and convenience.
