Other Details to Note

This home is part of a two-unit townhome and shares a roof with the neighboring unit. Your space is completely private, with its own entrance, front porch, and dedicated driveway for 2–3 cars. The other half of the duplex also operates as an Airbnb. We’re happy to welcome pets—just please register them in advance to avoid extra charges. We kindly ask that they stay off the furniture (beds and seating). For their comfort, we recommend bringing a crate or pet bed. The home is located in the historic Porter’s Community, one of Gainesville’s oldest and most diverse neighborhoods. With its rich cultural history and strong sense of community, it’s an authentic downtown experience. Like many urban areas, it may feel different than a quiet suburban neighborhood. Guests who value being close to downtown, Depot Park, and UF usually love the location. We simply ask that you be respectful of our neighbors, many of whom have lived here for generations.

Once arriving at Jeff's place, we were happy to find out we had stayed at the other side of Jeff's duplex right next door a few years ago, which was a great space back then, so we knew we would have a great stay! Jeff's place is clean, plenty spacious for three couples to stay comfortably (with room for more!), and in a fantastic location within walking distance to nearby restaurants and coffee. We had a great time!

Superbe maison pour un stop Road trip USA. Le plus de cette maison: le fauteuil de massage! Un bonheur quand on a passé une journée chargée de visites et de route! Un vrai bonheur!

Comfortable place, clean, with the esencial for breakfast and a fast lunch, also the beds were comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet at night which is great. Check in and check out easy. The owner was very detail with the rules and instructions for checking and out.

Jeff's place was amazing, just as described. We felt right at home from the moment we entered the house. Everything was spotless and had all you need for a great getaway. Jeff's place was close to Everything! The massage chair was an added bonus! We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Gainesville.
