Kick back for some time away and all the comforts of home. Our pet-friendly retreat is in the heart of Gainesville, within minutes of mid-town and the University of Florida. Take a few backroads on your way to watch Gator football at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, or walk to nearby Ring Park for a stroll along Hogtown Creek. And don't forget fido when you head to our dog-friendly city. Our fenced-in backyard will give your pup plenty of room to play!
We are dog lovers, travelers and foodies who love finding hidden gems as we explore new places. As Airbnb Superhosts, we've designed this home to give you that hidden gem with all the creature comforts you need at the end of a busy day in our lovely city! Simple, yet elegant, our three bedrooms feature cozy memory foam queen beds that will invite you to curl up and sleep in late! Two full baths are equipped with lush towels, eco-friendly soap, shampoo and conditioner, and plenty of space to accommodate you during your stay.
If you love to cook, you'll enjoy our fully equipped kitchen featuring granite countertops and all the extras you need to stir up a dine-in culinary experience. Our open concept kitchen, dining and living room area make for cozy conversation and plenty of time with your family and friends. Stream your favorite movie or show from our Smart TV, or enjoy your favorite read as you settle down for some R&R.
If you're like us, your canine companions are part of the family and love the chance to explore new territory. Our fenced-in private back yard will give your pup a chance to stretch their legs and enjoy a little time beneath the pines and magnolias! A scooper is handy for quick clean-up, and a large water bowl is available in the garage for your use. And, for those who can't travel with their pups, rest assured our home is professionally cleaned and ready for your enjoyment.
