Great host and stay

We had a great time at this place! The property is located close to everything you need and 3 miles from UF. Everything inside was very clean and we had everything we needed. It was large enough to house 9 adults and a dog very comfortably. All the amenities were great and we had everything we needed to eat in if we liked. The backyard was private and fenced which helped our dog get some exercise off the leash. The owner is excellent. Jeffery is super communicative and easy to work with! This is a great place to stay. We’d stay here again for sure!

The home looks just like in the pictures. Safe, quiet, clean neighborhood close to restaurants and grocery store. The home was very clean with several spaces where to hang out.

Nice house, good location

We were up visiting family and this was a nice little house that was super close to them. Very clean and would be good space for bigger family with 2 living areas. Nothing flashy or super special about it but it fit well for what we needed (2 adults and 1 child under 2). Only complaint was the low beds were a little hazardous for the little one and plugs didn’t stay in the outlets very well.

Easy, clean & convenient to UF

Arrival and communication was simple at this comfortable house. We needed room to gather with local friends, and sort through all the stuff we had brought with us to move my daughter into her new college digs. The beds are comfy and the house was very clean. Good proximity to stores and easy to get between UF and Santa Fe.

Hello and thank you for checking my profile!
When I am not here on VRBO helping people find short term homes, I am out finding people long term homes working as a Realtor! I love animals and and am the proud dog-dad to Lillian Billy Picadilly, or "Lilly" for short.

Why they chose this property

This is a wonderful place to call home. Its location is conveniently close to everything, while simultaneously being on a quiet and private residential road. The property is fully stocked for guests, from extra towels and linens to a fully stocked kitchen with Oil, Salt, Pepper and Coffee provided. We have extremely comfy beds, and a serene private fenced back yard. Enjoy a coffee on the patio in the morning or a fire in the pit at night!
