Perfect stay close to UF!

This was a perfect house for the week, for our work close to the University. I found the beds to be comfortable and great to find that there was coffee and dishes/pans/etc to use in the home for cooking. The host was friendly and the home was perfect for the two of us. Thank you again!

Nice house for our stay

We spent a few days in the area for my husband to go to the race track. We brought our pugs and it was very pet friendly and a nice neighborhood to walk them. All the utensils needed to cook, just add food and condiments. The fenced in sitting area was nice to relax and soak up some sun while it was out. Plenty of linens and having the washer and dryer was a plus to keep up with laundry. The beds, pillows and comforters were really comfy too. We had a relaxing few days here and enjoyed our stay.
