Cute country house
We were in town briefly for a football game and this house worked great for us. About 20 minutes from U of F campus. While there are three rooms, there is only one small bathroom so this is a consideration based on the size of your party. Will was a great communicator. House was well appointed.

Happy to Have Returned
We LOVE this property and often think of the wonderful past times we've been here. The house is updated but feels like a cozy, inviting home. The grounds are beautifully well kept and we love being outside as well as inside. There are some of the most relaxing reclining chairs in their living room and the beds are so soft. The kitchen is well stocked with quality utensils, check-in and check-out are easy, and our kiddos loved the foosball table. ''The Gainesville House'' is definitely in our top places to stay.

Wonderful Stay
We were in town for a sports tournament and this house met all of our needs. We loved the quiet location. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare family meals. The kids enjoyed the foosball table and darts. Will was a great host. We will stay again when we come back in the fall.

Charming country home and property, so peaceful and quiet.
We rented this home for my husband and me (from Mississippi) our daughter from Salt Lake City and son from Tampa. We came for a memorial celebration of life with family from Turkey Creek, just down the road. So convenient, everything we needed was included. Perfect place to stay, very nice responsive homeowner, and a great choice for us! Beautiful property. Thanks for a great visit! Jan and Bill Patrick

Great Gameday Location
Some friends and I stayed here for a road game in the Swamp and it was a great setup for what we needed! Property owner gave us a great heads up on the check-in process and was super helpful. Only will give the place 2 slight knocks, we couldn’t figure out how to get the air hockey table working and also driving up to the property later at night made it a little difficult getting in finding the place. Other than those small details everything was great!
