About this property

Walk to UF, Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, O'Connell Center, restaurants and shopping. Enjoy the outdoors on the large multi-level deck, especially on football weekends. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are welcoming. You can bike to downtown or reach the mall or archer road with a 10 minute drive.

This home accommodates large groups easily but is still cozy for only a few. There are plenty of spaces where you can sit and enjoy the company of others or find a space to have for yourself. The backyard has a deck with two seating areas and additional space for entertaining. All rooms in the house except for the living room and dining room can be closed off from the rest of the house so you can work in peace if need be. We have installed a Nest thermostat and have a (Hidden by Airbnb) Home to help make your stay as effortless as possible. The kitchen has ample counter space for preparing a meal for large groups.

Nightmare host

Imagine your child graduating from the university of Florida. You have people flying in from all over the country to see this. 8 -9 people in all. You rent a place 6 months in advance and the owner cancels and refunds you 15 hrs before check in. What a class act. You must have a ton of freinds sir. Good luck with life.

Host was very rude

What I thought would be a great experience for my family turned out to be horrible. My uncles had to fix the garage that partially broken. Along with the garage being full of random things.There were unstable pieces of tiles on the floor. The host called me saying that we were having a party and we weren’t. Our purpose for being in Gainesville were for the Gatornationals racing. Which was rained out on Friday and the day that all my family came in. We all gathered in spot to figure out the plan for the rest of the weekend. We had two houses booked which I let the host know. The host SHOWED up to the property unannounced and irate. He threatened to cancel our reservation. He made a statement about the amount of people and he’s knows that there’s going to be a great amount of trash. I informed that we always haul away our trash even though we’re CHARGED a clean up fee.I explained to him that we only gathered in one spot for a little while. He then asked me what do I propose to him for the remainder of the stay. If I could have found another house I would have left his property immediately. I hope no one else has to experience that type of behavior from a host.

Spacious and clean

This property is in a nice, quiet neighborhood, and is larger than it looks from the outside. The owner has graciously provided coffee, filters, cream & sugar, along with plenty of trash bags, dishwasher liquid and dish soap, laundry soap, bar soap in the bathrooms, toilet paper, paper towels, and many other things you might have forgotten to pack. While there are many kitchen items to help you prepare gourmet meals at home, be aware that there is only 1 frying pan and there is not a cookie sheet. The owner's response was quick and check-in was easy. For entertainment, there are smart TVs in the living room and master bedroom. They also have a number of board games for family fun. A very large multi-level outdoor deck with a gas grill allows for plenty of space for cookouts. i would definitely stay here again.

Lovely

Our host, Alex was very responsive in answering questions ahead of booking, and during our stay he dropped off a box cookies which was a wonderful, thoughtful surprise.
