We loved the place, the house, the view, everything wonderful, very clean, comfortable, relaxing and we felt like in grandmother's house. The communication with the hosting team was very good. Everything was incredibly. We highly recommend the place and we would visit again.

The White House

MarcinRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Carol and Bob's home in Gainesville. The house was clean, spacious, and perfect for our group. Some of us worked remotely during the trip, with plenty of space for work calls while others cooked, ate, and relaxed. Thoughtful details like the wine fridge, a futon stocked with board games, and a cozy patio area with a fire pit added to the experience. The kitchen was a highlight—well-equipped with all the plates, utensils, and small appliances we needed. Outside, the spacious yard and large wooden deck with seating were great for enjoying the fresh air. The location was ideal—close to trails, parks, grocery stores, and restaurants. Carol and Bob were thoughtful hosts, and their home had everything to make our visit comfortable and stress-free. They were quick to communicate through messages and answered all of our questions promptly. Check-out was also a breeze with a thoughtful checklist. Highly recommended and would certainly book again!

Explore Melrose! Fish on Dock, Boat and relax!

AllanRating, 5 stars9 months ago
We had a great stay here. It is in a quiet neighborhood and easy to get too. We had our kayaks with us so we enjoyed being able to launch them from the fishing dock in the back yard in what was a very scenic waterway which led to Santa Fe Lake. Space was very clean and well stocked with kitchenware and everything you might need.

Parsonage Cottage

Linda Or GaryRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Wonderful stay. The cottage was exactly as described. Very clean. I felt very safe staying there by myself and would have enjoyed a longer stay where I could sit on the little porch and relax. It is really a feeling of what Florida used to be. Big trees, older homes. Quiet and relaxed studio cottage. The couch and bed were very comfortable. No frills but didn’t need or want them. If I’m back in the area for another show I’ll try and stay here again. There’s a good local pizza place in Micanopy and a good grill at the Orange Lake RV resort.
A cozy bedroom features a wooden bed frame with a mattress topped by white pillows and layered blankets. Natural light flows through a window adorned with blinds, illuminating the room's soft yellow walls. A wooden dresser with a simple design stands nearby.

Lake View Apartment on Melrose Bay

FrancesRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We enjoyed staying at Lesley's apt. She and Steven were very friendly and made us feel right at home. It's a very cute place, right on the lake. The lake is beautiful and the sunsets off the dock were amazing. The kitchen is well equipped and the king size bed was very comfortable. The shower was quite small but sufficient. They've done a great job making it nice and comfortable.
The spacious living area features neutral-colored walls and soft carpet underfoot. A round dining table is surrounded by four chairs. In the background, a black sofa and a small chair provide additional seating near large windows that allow natural light to fill the space.

Lake Santa Fe Cottage #1-1BR 1BA

DanaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Julia was incredible!! We book last minute to get away from a coming hurricane. She kindly allowed us to check in early and gave us a discounted rate. While she was dealing with her own hurricane preparations she quickly responded to every request and went above and beyond. Her place was beautiful and we can't wait to visit again when the weather is better!!
