Roach issues , bare minimum for bed mattress and 450.00/night is very poor value. Won’t ever stay

Won’t ever stay there and could not wait to leave. Won’t ever use VRBO as misleading listing and 450.00/ night with all the junk fees is beyond pale for this property . Muck better values in that market . We are done done and will never use VRBO again for any booking as not reliable offerings

Gainesville grad stay

We stayed here in order to attend my son’s graduation. It was a perfect location and great for our family. We were very pleased with the manager’s communication, as well as the size and cleanliness of the house.

What a great stay!

Jeffrey was extremely helpful, the house was cute, well stocked and very comfortable. The 2 family rooms were great too. We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings and the beds were extremely comfortable. Location to everything was perfect. Would definitely rent there again.

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!
