We rented this house for my cousins graduation at UF & we really felt we couldn’t have found a better rental. It was in walking distance to a bunch of little food spots like Luke’s Bagels (which were delicious btw). It was about a 5 minute ride to downtown Gainesville as well as UF. The neighbors were all friendly and having 2 parking spots was a bonus for us. The house was equipped with absolutely anything and everything you could possibly need from a coffee maker to water bottles in the fridge. The backyard was pretty spacious and they even provide doggy bags to pick up after ur pet. The house had a ton of games that we most definitely utilized and had a lot of fun playing! The beds were comfy and there was a plethora of towels, soap & any toiletries u may need. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would 10/10 recommend staying here to anyone looking for a place to rent while visiting Gainesville. Kadeidra was so communicative and helpful to answer any questions promptly. She really was a delight to coordinate with and made sure we were taken care of. My family and I truly have no complaints nor critiques. Our stay was great!

We stayed here to visit my Gator at UF. It’s a very convenient location to stay. Easy drive to UF campus. Property was clean and comfortable. Plenty of room to spread out. The owner was friendly and easy to communicate with. 2 parking spots which was great. We brought my partner’s service dog and had no issues bringing her along. If you’re a Luke’s bagel lover, it’s literally around the block! 5 minute walk! Big bonus for me!

The host has gone to great effort to address needs of guests and the unit was very clean. It is an great place to stay if you have a dog as the back yard has a nice tall, new wooden privacy fence.
