Peter was an excellent host. An issue come up with the property (to no one's fault) and Peter went above and beyond to make sure my family had a comfortable stay. We were in town for a football game in Gainesville, and this property proved to be very convenient for that. My son especially loved the heated pool and the arcade games. If we found ourselves back down there for another game, we will absolutely stay here again.

Adam and his family were absolutely wonderful guests. He was incredibly kind, understanding, and easy to communicate with, especially when an unexpected issue came up during their stay. As a fellow veteran, I really enjoyed meeting Adam and learning about his service in both the military and law enforcement. He and his family treated our home with great care and respect. They are exactly the kind of guests every host hopes for, and we would welcome them back anytime. Highly recommended!

5 The whole experience was perfect. AMAZING communication with the hosts from the 1st day of booking. Check-in, readiness and cleanliness of the house was Great! Host were very accommodating to our late arrival with a bonus nostalgic entrance. Candles, flowers, chocolates & bubbly were awaiting us upon our arrival as this was a 20 year Anniversary trip with our family. Midway through our stay the hosts checked in to see if any clean towels, etc. were needed. House is on a gated private drive & felt very safe. Would highly recommend this house & would most definitely stay here again.
