Host profile image
We’re just a family trying to live as self-sufficient as possible on our 10 acre homestead. We love to garden, raise animals, and travel.

Why they chose this property

Enjoy peaceful country living just minutes from the heart of Gainesville! Our property is tucked away on a quiet dirt road, giving you a true taste of rural Florida—while still being just a short drive to the Gainesville airport, the raceway, and downtown. It’s the best of both worlds: nature and convenience in one perfect spot.

What makes this property unique

Our Retro Legrande Retreat is more than just a stay—it’s an experience! 🌿

Enjoy the charm of our friendly pigs and chickens, plus Florida’s wild animals with almost daily sightings of deer, rabbit, turkey, birds, and the occasional otter. The perfect stay for animal lovers. Wander along scenic trails, and then kick back on the super cozy front porch living space. It’s the perfect blend of nature, comfort, and a touch of farm life! 🐷✨
