    Home is spacious and fully stocked. Lots of lighting, rooms, parking. Our host was friendly, informative, flexible and overall a rockstar!

    This house is adorable and the location was perfect. It was only 1.5 miles from our daughter’s dorm at UF. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. (Oh and I loved the mattresses - super comfortable.) I did have a question late the first night and did not expect an answer until the next morning. It was a welcome surprise when the hostess responded immediately.

    Modern vintage does not mean that doors do not shut. When you go into your bedroom you want privacy! This should be noted in the description. The place was NOT cleaned well enough!! Disappointed.

    We were in town for a graduation ceremony. Beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was nicely stocked.

    This house and neighborhood was perfect for our long weekend stay. Very cozy and in a great location for the wedding we attended nearby at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.

    We had a great stay for my daughter’s UF graduation. Becky was a great host and really good communicator. The house is a charming home in an ideal location.

    We stayed here while our teen daughters were in a softball tournament. It was the perfect home to come back to after long, hot days. It was quiet, clean, and very charming.

    Thank you for providing our family a safe place to evacuate to from Hurricane Milton. Becky and Betsy were very responsive and kind. The home was clean and had plenty of items needed to make the stay comfortable (pots, pans, spices, etc.). Although I am familiar with Gainesville with UF being my alma mater, I really liked the binders with local information. I find those so helpful and accommodating for guests. Definitely a nice touch. Thank you again! Despite the stress of the storm, we had a nice time on your property and would come back again.

    As a University of Florida Alumni (Go Gators!), who was born and raised in Miami, the UF vs UM game is a rivalry game I couldn't miss. I researched Vrbo & found this property near the stadium. I reserved a year in advance in order to ensure my friends & I would have a place to stay. I was pleasantly surprised by how courteous & available the host was (Rebecca). We kept in touch throughout the process, which was very helpful. The property itself was perfect for our needs (7 adults over 40) & provided us with a uniquely Gainesville experience that allowed us to reminisce on our time at UF when we were younger. The pond & plants surrounding the property were gorgeous. The property itself was very clean & had all of the amenities we needed. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a courteous & communicative host, a beautiful home, gorgeous atmosphere, & close proximity to the heart of Gainesville. I look forward to visiting again soon!

    Had a really wonderful stay. Great location and quiet neighborhood so close to everything around the UF campus. Love the pond just outside the front door. Already looking forward to future visits.
