Amazing restful retreat
Greg is a 5 star host! He greeted me upon arrival and walked the property and apartment with me. He also had local places to visit(similar to hotel stays). Greg's hospitality beats most large hotel concierge service. The apartment is truly amazing, beautiful, and clean. The surrounding areas are a true nature lovers dream!

Beautiful apartment with a comfortable bed and everything you need for short or longer stays. Opened the windows to listen to a symphony of birds in the morning. Greg is a knowledgeable and accommodating host. I'll be back!

A slice of heaven
We had a delightful stay here. The accomodations are comfortable and had everything we needed. The highlight of our stay was watching the wild turkeys and enjoying fresh fruit grown on the property. The quiet was amazing.

Peaceful Place
My Mom and I had a wonderful stay! The place is wonderfully decorated with family history. The floor plan was absolutely perfect and comfortable. I used the hideaway bed, since it was a one bedroom, and it was very comfortable. If you want a quiet place close to Gainesville, this is it. Greg provided fresh picked fruit from trees on the property, which was a nice welcoming surprise. You could see turkeys and other birds in the morning. The place gave you a feeling of old Florida, I will definitely use this location when returning to visit my daughter at UF. Thank you Greg.
