BEDROOMS / BATHROOMS

This four bedroom home has enough beds to sleep up to 8 people. The two bedrooms downstairs feature a king and queen mattress. Each has its own dresser and closet and is next to the downstairs bathroom.

I really dislike staying at rentals with cheap, rock hard mattresses. So I made sure to furnish this home with quality mattresses to provide a good nights sleep!

The two bedrooms upstairs are separated by a hallway and each feature their own “mini split” air conditioner/heating system. The upstairs bathroom (with bath tub) is located in the hallway between the bedrooms.

KITCHEN & DINING

The kitchen is nestled in between the dining room and living room with fireplace. Stocked with basic essentials such as pots, pans, toaster oven and Keurig. Appliances include fridge, dishwasher, stove/oven, microwave, and garbage disposal.


LIVING ROOM

Casa Johnson features two distinct living rooms. The front living room features a smart TV (pre loaded with Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO Max, Hulu and Disney+) and a small “home office” area with a motorized desk should you want to stand, or sit in the cushy office chair.

The back living room is next to the kitchen and overlooks the pool area. It features a comfy couch and fireplace.


OUTDOOR SPACE
Our outdoor space provides a fun family atmosphere. The backyard features an 800 sq. ft swimming pool with a pergola, outdoor dining table and lounge chairs on one side. On the other side of the pool sits a dreammaker brand hot tub. All surrounded by an 8 foot tall privacy fence.

The backyard has plenty of adjustable lighting - no matter how bright (or dark) you’d like to keep the backyard during your stay.

Want to grill? We have you covered. Our backyard features a propane BBQ grill with a spare tank in the garage.

We had a wonderful stay. It was too cool for the pool for us but not our golden retriever. There was plenty of room, every kitchen utensil one could possibly want, comfortable furniture,a grill and beautiful weather .Our family had an absolutely wonderful time. For us luddites, a little more information about how the tv works would have been helpful but not a dealbreaker in the least.

Girls' Weekend

Convenient location and spacious for our group. We enjoyed Cedar Lakes Woods and Gardens and the Florida Museum attractions as well as several nonchain restaurants which were excellent (the Pirate Grill-try the mushroom soup; Humble Wood Fire Pizzeria-cashew alfredo topping was delicious for a friend allergic to milk, and Las Carretas was a fun atmosphere with a salsa bar for ones' chips). Not to mention the hot tub was lovely on these uncharistically cold evenings.

We really enjoyed our stay at John’s home. It’s a beautiful Florida house with everything you can want or need. The beds were amazingly comfortable! There is plenty of space and although it was cold and we were unable to use the pool or jacuzzi they are awesome! Great home for family & pets! Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Perfect Home for a Relaxing Stay with Excellent Amenities

We had a fantastic stay at this clean and well-furnished home. The location was perfect, just 10 minutes away from the university pool, which was ideal for our swim camp. The house boasts a huge pool, a hot tub, and a gazebo, all of which were great for entertaining our family and friends. The grill and fully equipped kitchen made it easy for us to prepare different meals, adding to the convenience and enjoyment of our stay. The host was very accommodating and made the check-out process seamless. Overall, it was a great experience. We will definitely recommend this property to others and look forward to renting it again for future trips.

Awesome place for entertaining

My family all met in Gainesville for an extended long weekend in March and this house was perfect for home base. All the beds were extremely comfortable, the place was clean and easy to find. We enjoyed going to local parks, UF, restaurants (satchels pizza) all nearby. The pool was huge and great for the kids (a bit too cold for us adults)! Would definitely return again!
