About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Sunset Oasis Home with Serene Backyard only 1 mile to UF & Stadium!

Recently renovated home is the perfect location to stay for games or graduation. Small events allowed with preapproval , deposit, and contract. Not too close to all the noise of campus but close enough to walk if you want.
Three unique private ensuite bedrooms await you upstairs, equipped with Roku TV's and individual coded locking door handles.
Downstairs you'll find a fully equipped open entertaining in/outdoor space for your group to enjoy. Ask Alexa to play you some tunes to set the vibe!

The Sunset House is a great place for family or groups of friends to hang out on game day or any other occasion. You won't regret taking advantage of the relaxing two-tier deck outside. You will make great memories having dinner under the twinkling string lights, relaxing in the hammock during the day under the sun sail, or having a cup of coffee at the seating area in the morning dew.

The downstairs living room, dining room, and kitchen offers a great entertaining space for your group to lounge and interact. You can ask Alexa to play some tunes or even games! Take your meals at the kitchen bar or at the dining room table, whichever suits your group best!

When you are ready to be away from everyone, you can retreat upstairs to you own private bedroom and bathroom. Each room is uniquely styled so that you can find your goldilocks style match. You can log into your own streaming services on the Roku TV's! With guest mode you will be automatically logged out on the date you select, so you don't have to worry about future guests watching your shows. Your least favorite friends or family ;) can find a queen sized memory foam bed inside the living room sofa. Air Mattress is upon request.

Great house for Gator fans

Our group (five college friends now in our 60s) loved this house. We met in Gainesville to enjoy each other’s company and attend some Gator sporting events. We enjoyed walking the 1+ mile to campus and also driving to some spots a little farther away. The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We would definitely rent again.

We visited Gainesville to go to a swim meet, a basketball game, and a tennis tournament. This house was perfect. It was beautiful, clean, had almost everything you could want, and was within walking distance of campus. Communication with the property managers was quick and easy. We have stayed in a lot of rental homes, and this was one of the best. We can't wait to go back.
