Amazing Swamp House. Every part of the house decor absolutely blew us away! Made staying here for a game even more exciting! Walk to the stadium and downtown UF was super convenient! Will definitely book again when we are back there for a game! Communication with the hosts was top notch!

We had an excellent stay at this house in Gainesville for the Morgan Wallen and Ella Langley concert weekend. The location was absolutely perfect — roughly a mile from the stadium on University Avenue, which made for a fun and easy walk to and from the concert with all the excitement around town. The house itself was extremely clean and very well set up for a comfortable stay. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the air conditioning cooled the home perfectly after long hot days in Gainesville. One of our favorite parts was the backyard deck area where we enjoyed coffee in the mornings and grilled at night before heading out. The attention to detail really stood out, especially the phenomenal quality towels from Pottery Barn. Overall, this was a fantastic stay and we would absolutely come back again for another Gainesville trip or game weekend.
