About the host

I am a very outgoing person who loves to travel, eat and hang with friends. I enjoy laughing and just simply having a good time. I am also adventurous and enjoy participating in activities that gives you a good adrenaline rush :)
I have one fur baby, her name is Gigi and she goes almost everywhere with me as I travel.
We only have one life to live and my goal is make sure I make the best of it!

Why they chose this property
This home is located in the up and coming Porters Community, a multi-cultural/ diverse neighborhood. Porters mostly consists of locals and is a family friendly environment. Many residents have lived here for generations and this community remains strong, tight-knit and vibrant. If the neighborly atmosphere is not fit for you, there are plenty of other locations to book in town.
The location of this home is conveniently close to Deport Park, the UF football stadium, Shands hospital, VA hospital and downtown Gainesville. Its central location is one of the best things about the Porters Community.
Porters is a safe community with significantly decreased crime rates, however it is within the downtown area. Just like any other downtown, we advise all guests to remain cautious of their surroundings, keep doors/ windows locked and to keep your valuables out of sight.

What makes this property unique
This home has been set up and designed to make you feel at home on your getaway. I have included everything in this home that I have also loved as a guest during my stays. This home uniquely provides a privately fenced backyard for your comfort. Most importantly, this home is in a great location.. centrally located a short distance from all that Gainesville has to offer.
