Haile Plantation

Overall stay was nice. TVs do need upgraded to better quality (sound is not good on lower grade TVs). The bunk beds were extremely loud to sleep in. The other two beds were great and the house was nice and in a good location for our visit.

Highly recommended !!!!!

Excellent experience very comfortable, clean, the water and cookies was very nice touch, everything needed was available, neighbor to the left side of house was very nice, but your other neighbor to the right was very angry and not very nice. Thank you allowing us to stay an extra day on such short notice.

Five-Star House in a Nice Neighborhood

I don't really like to review houses, because I think my wife and I are too picky, but I don't have any reservations about giving this house five stars. It has been very nicely and tastefully remodeled and is well-appointed for a pleasant and comfortable stay. All appliances were working well, the house was very clean, and it is in a nicely wooded area, with lots of trees and a walking trail. We were originally concerned that it might be a little noisy because the houses are a bit close together here. It turns out to be very quiet, because most folks have left their yards in a nicely natural state so that there is not all the yard work with loud power tools that can go on in a more spread out neighborhood with big lawns requiring lots of (noisy) maintenance. So it is very pleasant sitting on the back deck. The only thing that we would like to see changed is that the fragrance used in the house is a bit strong, as my wife and I are both a bit sensitive to that. If cleaners with little or no fragrance would be used here that would be great and make it an even better place to stay. All in all, a really nice home and a good value. We would stay here again if visiting Gainesville.
