Attended the Auburn-University of FL baseball series. Location was absolutely perfect. It’s an older house but clean and comfortable. Nice small pond in front of property. 4 stars for cleanliness as windows on the outside could use a good cleaning. If I return, would definitely stay here again. Great communication from owner. Overall was excellent.
