Overall our stay was fabulous. The house is spacious, the kitchen is well stocked and many seating areas. The pool table is outside so it is difficult to play it in the middle of summer. All in all a great place.

Our annual family gathering was complete at the pond house! The space was perfect for the nine of us. The kitchen is stocked extremely well!! The bedrooms were cozy and quiet. The only recommendation I have for the home is to have a fan for the outside pool table area; as air movement would make this space more enjoyable with the Florida heat.

For Bridgerton fans, you know what I mean. The house is incomparable, sitting on its own pond. I was greeted my first evening by two deer out for a drink. Over my 4 day stay, I saw deer, turkeys, an egret, a blue heron, and two alligators sharing the same water source. The house was spacious and the perfect place to entertain my family in town for a wedding. The kitchen is the most fully equipped I have ever had the pleasure of cooking in. My sister was so enchanted, she went out and bought all the cooks in the family matching aprons so we had a souvenir of our time there. The indoor and the outdoor spaces were so well laid out and equipped. So much seating and dining areas for alfresco dining, informal dining off the pool and formal dining for those so inclined. There was dinner service for 16, plus children’s dinnerware for four. There are 3 different coffee makers to give you a choice between regular brewed, pod style one cup option and expresso with a milk foamed. I could go on and on. This house deserves every 10 it has received from its guests. My niece was so taken with the property, she is organizing a cousins reunion and plans to rent the Pond House for it.

Only problem is that my parents are 84 and the beds were too high for them to get in and out of. Not a problem for everyone but just too tall for them.

It was wonderful. I’d highly recommend this property for any large family group The common spaces are large open and conducive to conversation. The bedrooms were far enough away that even those who wanted and early night were not disturbed. The backyard was perfect for wiffle ball, fishing and good fun!

The pond house is beautiful and clean inside and out! You can tell the host takes pride in her rental. We stayed to celebrate my daughters graduation and this home was perfect! It has a very large kitchen with plenty of seating and the outdoor area is amazing We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

This house looked great in the photos - and it was even better in real life! My husband and I, 3 of my children and their spouses, one 3-year-old, and one 1-year old grandchild all stayed here for another daughter's wedding in Gainesville. The house was immaculately clean and well appointed with ample comfortable and attractive furnishings, excellent lighting (all too often overlooked!), a beautiful, well-equipped kitchen with nice appliances and everything you need for cooking and entertaining (also rare!), and plenty of staples - towels, bedding, paper goods, cleaning supplies, etc. - including hangars in the closets and laundry detergent! The ten of us were there from Thurs afternoon to Mon morning and we didn't want for anything. In the main house there are two spacious adjacent living and dining areas, the gourmet kitchen, a large primary bedroom (king bed) with a huge bathroom and closet area, a hall bath, and two comfortable bedrooms with queen beds. The house wraps around a sizable screened-in patio with pool, and, of course, the coolest space ever - the grass & plant covered enclosed outdoor game room with a terrific pool table and very nice seating! This connects to the wing with two more bedrooms and a nice laundry room. There's a nice side patio with grill, firepit and table. The lawn goes to the lovely pond and you can enjoy the view while sitting around a wood burning firepit area. Everything is first-rate here and we all wished we could stay longer!

We recently stayed at The Pond House, and it exceeded all our expectations, earning a well-deserved 5-star rating! The outdoor space is a nature lover's dream! The screened porch offers breathtaking pond views and the chance to witness wildlife. The lush greenery provides both privacy and beauty. Also, it is in a great neighborhood with close proximity to the University of Florida. An ideal spot for both tranquility and accessibility. The master bedroom, with its pond views, is a luxurious retreat featuring a king bed, en-suite with a large shower, and a generous 65” TV. All bedrooms have queen beds, premium linens, and large TVs. The kitchen had all new appliances and was well stocked with everything you need. The coffee bar which included a Nespresso machine was a great bonus. The Pond House is designed for large groups, offering two living areas and two dining areas. The quality of the furniture in both areas was excellent. We can't wait to return!

We found this home to be perfect for our family group. We had a reunion of ten adults and ten children (not all stayed overnight) and the accommodations worked great. There was plenty of room, and the kids could hang out and adults easily keep an eye on them while spending time together. They loved the pool even though the weather was a little cool. The older kids hung out in the "game room" and we all enjoyed the pool table. The kitchen and open concept living and dining areas were spacious and convenient. There is a large outdoor area with a firepit. The big plus for us is that the location is near our home in the center of Gainesville, close to UF and the stadium, shopping, etc. We will definitely consider this property again for hosting a large group.
