Great Find!

This place was an excellent find. Having lived in Gainesville for 10+ years and returned yearly for FEST each October, I have stayed in places throughout town. Great location for Fall football weekends and of course FEST. Will definitely reserve again (if available) on future trips!

Perfect bungalow

We visit Gainesville often to visit our kids who attend UF. We stay at hotels and occasionally rent a house. Would highly recommend this property. Great location! We enjoyed a bonfire while watching football and it was a great place to relax after a weekend full of activities. We look forward to returning to this sweet and cozy bungalow.

Excellent stay

Mike and Stephanie‘s place was perfect for our 10 night trip. The property was exactly as described and Mike was very quick to answer any questions. The property had all the little extras that made it feel really homely so perfect for our slightly longer stay. We will definitely stay again. Thank you!

Cozy and clean

This was the perfect place to stay in Gainesville. Quick drive to restaurants, grocery store and UF campus. The neighborhood was peaceful and great for a morning walk. The house is decorated beautifully. The kitchen was stocked well for cooking. Loved the bathroom dual shower heads and plenty of countertop space and storage. My husband and I look forward to booking again.

Wonderful Gainesville

I went to celebrate my birthday! I love Gainesville for its hiking and it's many parks too choose from. This did not disappoint. The best place i have stayed in so far. Everything was within a 10-15 minute drive. The house was wonderful, clean and well equipped. I loved the backyard and fire pit and spent my nights outside enjoying the quiet. Thank you for a truly great experience.

Perfect House For Gameday Weekend

The listing was exactly as described. The check-in was seamless and the house is super cozy and very clean. I communicated with Michael the owner the week before about an early check in to accommodate our flight schedule and he was very responsible and allowed for an early check in. The house is a 3 minute uber to the stadium and about a 12 minute walk. Very convenient all around. We will look to stay here again on future game weekend.

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Stephanie

Host profile image
Mike and Stephanie are Florida natives who split their time between FL and NC. Mike was born in Gainesville but grew up in Hickory, NC, hiking and camping in the high country. Stephanie was born and raised in Florida.

We love traveling to NC to enjoy the scenic mountains, the cooler temperatures and local attractions. We enjoy hiking and skiing — and do our best to squeeze every minute of fun we can out of life. We also live by and love the beach!

To us, having a getaway in the mountains or at the beach is to live the good life. So we named our properties the “Good Life Getaway”.

We added many decorative touches to make the home both comfortable and inspiring to our guests.

When we are not living the good life in NC you may find us in Redington Beach at the tiki bar drinking margaritas. In the fall we can be found at a Tampa Bay Buccaneers football game.

Why they chose this property

Our property is within easy walking distance to campus, sports events and restaurants, so you can park in our ample driveway in front of the home and walk to many close by locations. Plenty of room for two cars.
