The space
Welcome to Your Quintessential UF Gainesville Experience ✌🏾🐊🥰
Discover the perfect home base for your University of Florida adventure!
Our charming three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is ideally situated just a 10-minute drive from downtown Gainesville and a mere 3 to 5 minutes from Midtown. Located directly across the street from the university in a serene neighborhood, you’ll enjoy DIRECT access to UF with the ability to retreat and recharge after an exhilarating Gator Game! While you’ll be within walking distance of the campus and UF’s stadium, driving is easy, public transit is reliable and accessible, and Gainesville's grid is a cinch to navigate—making it an ideal choice for travelers attending university-related events.
Location, Location, Location 📍🐊🎓
Gainesville is renowned for being the home of the University of Florida, drawing visitors from all over. Here, you can enjoy the convenience of being close to the university without being caught in the hustle and bustle that accompanies Gator games. Midtown, a vibrant hub of dining and nightlife, is only a three-minute drive or a pleasant ten-minute walk away, offering a plethora of bars, restaurants, and cafes for you to explore. Walking along University Ave (heading west) will take you directly to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium: the epicenter of the university.
Although Midtown is the 'beachfront' that most look for when coming to Gainesville, downtown has its charming atmosphere and is home to a multitude of bars, restaurants, and walkable parks. Our favorite restaurant is Oak—be sure to ask about it when you check in!
Our property is also conveniently accessible to 13th St and University Ave, two main arteries that can take you to UF, Shands, the VA, North Florida Hospital, and anywhere else in town within 15 minutes thanks to Gainesville's easy-to-navigate grid system.
