Ring Park Trail. Centrally located 2 to 2.5 miles from Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, downtown Gainesville, and UF Health Shands Hospital. Enjoy this comfortable mid-century home featuring vaulted ceilings with impressive exposed beams. This home has been furnished and decorated with a peaceful and comfortable ambiance. Get ready to relax and enjoy Gainesville! THE SPACE: If you are looking for a comfortable home that is centrally located in a quiet neighborhood in Gainesville, then this is for you! Walking distance to the following: \- morning coffee at Coffee Culture \- your workout in at Planet Fitness \- experience the peaceful trail at Alfred A. Ring Park You will find a lot of mid-century charm here, including the ceiling with exposed beams, built in closets in every room, and the original wood floors. There is also a built-in oven that many would say works better than modern ovens (heats 50 degrees hotter than the temperature you set). There is also a built-in radio in the wall that doesn't work perfectly without static, but you can still hear the radio on it which many guests find as a neat experience. For those looking to stay in, a 55-inch flatscreen smart TV with access to Netflix, Hulu, etc. is available. In addition, a stocked kitchen is available for guests to cook and dine at their convenience.. LOCATED: Coffee Culture is on the same block and is a short walk. The coffee is delicious with inexpensive prices, and it's a great place to bring a laptop and get work done. You won't be dissapointed! The closest grocery store is Winn-Dixie in walking distance. Keep in mind that Ward's Supermarket is a quick 3 minute drive from the house and it has a wide array of fresh produce and plenty of natural and organic options. This is as local as it gets in Gainesville when it comes to grocery stores! For outdoor lovers, Alfred A. Ring Park is a 10 minute walk away and it's very relaxing nature trail. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: Make sure NOT to park on the street that is the same side as the house because it's a tow away zone. The other side of the street is perfectly fine. There is an external camera looking outside the front door to ensure that the correct amount of guests in the reservation are staying at the property. HOUSE RULES: I want you to have an amazing stay and enjoy my home, but I do have a few rules! FIRST, THE DEAL-BREAKERS (you could lose your deposit): – Quiet hours are between 11pm and 7am.

OTHER HOUSE RULES: – Park in the garage/on the driveway/or on the other side of the road, but NOT on the road side closest to the house since it's a towing zone. (I don't want you to get towed if you park on the street next to the house). – I have provided black make-up removal hand cloths to be used for removing makeup. Please do not use other towels, washcloths, hand towels or linens for makeup removal (the stains are permanent and you will be charged for stained linen). – Please always lock all doors and close windows prior to your departure (front door should lock automatically every 30 seconds, but please make sure it does). – I expect that you will respect my home and that you will generally pick up after yourself.

An additional dog may be considered on a case-by-case basis. CHECK OUT INSTRUCTIONS: \- Checkout is at 10am.

GAS FIRE PIT AND OUTDOOR LIGHTS RULES/INSTRUCTIONS: \- If you choose to use the gas fire pit, DO NOT leave the gas fire pit unattended. \- DO NOT put/burn any items within the flames. \- When finished using the fire pit, turn knob to the off position and allow the fire pit to cool off first, and then please make sure to put the COVER BACK ON to protect it from weathering. \- To IGNITE the gas fire pit, it needs the propane to first be let out by holding the knob in for 10 seconds and then it should be able to successfully ignite after doing that (Please refer to the fire pit instructions that are on the label inside the door of the base of the firepit OR refer to the paper instructions left inside the small room). \- If you choose to use the outdoor lights, please remember to unplug them before leaving the lights and going back inside.

I appreciate the opportunity to make your stay more comfortable. If you find that there is something you need from me, please do not hesitate to ask. REVIEWS: "Great host and great house and area!

The location is very close to the Florida campus. The property was very spacious. I think it had 4 beds and plenty of space to handle that many people. We didn't use any of the amenities but they do have a grill and an outdoor fire pit. Communication between the host was very good. They gave us ideas of places to see and eat. Very good ideas. When we return to Gainesville I will definitely check this property out again. ##### Joshua R. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peg A.

The home was clean, very well stocked, and in a quiet, very conveniently located neighborhood. The host was very responsive and acknowledged minor issues/concerns, and open to rectification. The only minor issue was missing/non-functioning light bulbs in some lamps & a request for more smoke alarms. Would absolutely stay again if we’re ever in Gainesville! ##### Sonja H.

Feb 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quiet & safe It's a fairly quiet house (block construction, new windows) except when it rained (metal roof), and as the photos show, the interior is mostly original. We had no safety concerns, and the neighbors were friendly. You can expect some nearby loading dock noises in the mornings. Everything in the house worked, and the host was quick to respond to a couple minor issues at the beginning. Garage access was a nice bonus, though we only used it for our bicycles. It would easily accommodate a large car. ##### Hermann K. Stayed 34 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy W.

The home is impeccably clean and has a very relaxing feel. Lots of little positive messages scattered about. I ended up needing to cook a bit and the kitchen was well-equipped for fixing a meal. Beds are comfy and lots of space for everyone to read or work. It is a convenient location for us as well. Good communication from the host. ##### Cathy W.

It is convenient to UF campus, restaurants, and shopping while being in a quiet neighborhood. We brought our dog and he loved the large, fenced-in backyard. My husband walked him early each morning and the neighbors stopped to chat - so nice! The house has everything you need for cooking - even the grill was in great shape which isn't always the case at rental units. The beds were comfy, the a/c amazingly cold :-), and there was a large water heater so no one took cold showers - hey, these bits matter! :-) I hope we can book it again in the future! ##### Amy A.

Love the open living room with spacious and comfy couch. We didn’t cook while we were there so can’t comment on the adequacy of the kitchen. It worked well for our needs and was well equipped for coffee, drinks and heating things up. Bathrooms were clean and the beds comfortable. It could probably use a bit of updating but we embraced its charm and character. The spaciousness is a huge perk. We will definitely be back! ##### Keely P.

Very close to the hospital, restaurant's, and grocery stores. Be aware this is an older home, which did not bother us, however there are a few things I wish had been different. The neighborhood did make me feel uncomfortable, although nothing negative occurred. The house on arrival was clean, however the floors could of been vacuumed better, and no vacuum was provided. I did mention this to the homeowner who offered to have someone come to vacuum. Another warning for anyone who is tall, the bathroom counters are very low! If you are needing to cook meals the oven only cooks to 400°, and the toaster oven provided is very small. This can make cooking a challenge. Overall our stay was good. These are just somethings other guest may like to know in advance. ##### Nicole B. Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin D.
