Quaint and cozy. Located 10 min from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and the O’Dome. We loved how we could take our family pets with us too. Putt putt mini golf in the backyard made for a fun activity. Communication with the owner was always prompt and they were very courteous to make sure our stay was comfortable
I had a lovely stay while visiting my daughter at UF for the weekend. The host was fantastic—great communication and very accommodating. The house itself was adorable, clean, and cozy. Its location was perfect, just 10-15 minutes to everything we needed, including the UF campus. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Gainesville!
This place is like a little hidden gem. It was absolutely perfect clean nice pet friendly. It was just marvelous experience.

Place looked to be recently renovated, very clean and comfortable in a quiet little neighborhood. This was our first time staying in someone's home, we have always rented hotel rooms so didnt know quite what to expect. We were very satisfied with everything, check-in was super easy, plenty of amenities and the mini golf course was a nice twist.
We staying for a basketball tournament in gainesville. It was a nice home with lots of personality and absolutely loved the miniature golf in the backyard.
My husband and I were looking for a place to stay near UF for my orientation weekend. I stumbled upon this “jungle house” and the mini golf is what immediately caught my eye! Marlon made the check-in and check out process seamless, providing all the steps and information needed to enjoy our stay! The house is adorably decorated, was dog friendly for our black lab, and the mini golf in the backyard was awesome and such a cool setup! Thanks again for hosting us, we will definitely be back!
We've stayed here twice in last three weeks while visiting UF Vet School for a sick pup. Host is super responsive! House is very clean and comfortable. Great backyard for humans and pups alike. Will be staying again later this month.

Thank you John for your kind words, it is our absolute pleasure to host you !
My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights along with our dogs. The house was perfect for us, nice quiet neighborhood, very relaxing after long stressful days at Shands, away from mainstream but still very conveniently located to everything. Looks just like pictures, very clean, very comfortable beds. Great fenced in yard for our dogs. Hosts were very accommodating and responsive. Highly recommend!!
The house is cozy, clean, and stylish, with thoughtful touches like games and snacks.The backyard was definitely the highlight, featuring mini-golf, a fire pit, cornhole, and plenty of well-maintained space to relax.It’s on a quiet street that's conveniently close to UF, downtown, and everything we needed.Marlon was super responsive and accommodating too, though everything was already thoughtfully prepared—we checked into a warm space that stayed cozy during one of the coldest weekends here!Highly recommend and would absolutely stay again.
We enjoyed are stay! The house is about 10-15 min away from UF campus. An easy drive to shopping, restaurants, and most importantly our Gator! We all really appreciated the very comfortable mattresses and ceiling fans…but our favorite features were the huge fenced in backyard and fire pit. The location was peaceful and relaxing. Definitely a “do again.”
What a perfect perfect place!! Cute, quaint, perfectly appointed! AND coffee!! We just love our little bungalow. After being kicked out of our previous rental a day early(hmm I thought March had 31 days) Marlon was kind enough and had availability a day early! Bless his heart! Mini golf was a hoot!! Relaxed and enjoyed the property, and the local restaurants! Absolutely a perfect place! Thank you for sharing your beautiful space!
