Lake adventure
Small cute lake house. It is on the same property as the owner. He was around if you needed him otherwise doing his own thing around his house. It was more of a resort style feel than your own private house and area. Our kids played with his kids and we hung out at times. Had great days playing on the lake. We had a great time!

Amazing Getaway
This location had everything you needed plus some. The hosts were excellent and super quick to communicate when I made a wrong turn. The studio was super clean, and had the best beds I've ever slept on, a great shower, and a nice view of the lake. I will stay here everytime I come back to Gainesville area
