Property is in a great location for proximity to UF and downtown without being in student housing areas. We enjoyed our visit for a summer graduation, sharing space with a few family members coming in to town. The layout worked well for us, and two full baths was helpful--especially with one shower being a walk-in (vs. a tub/shower combo) for easier accessibility. The game room provides more space and another tv option, so a great multi-purpose room! We did not use the available grill or fire pit (summer heat and rain), but did use the covered outdoor seating area. Our stay was short, but this is a nice home that could meet many needs for a Gainesville stay! Great communication and instructions leading up to arrival, and no issues. We would use the property again.
