Just what we needed

A great space for family and friends to enjoy the country - convenient to hiking, bike trails, tubing at the springs, and Gainesville. Fun amenities inside and out - we fed the horses and played air hockey and ping pong. Truly something for everyone.

Country Living

What a great week we had relaxing in the country at this quiet, peaceful and beautiful home. Robin was a great host. We were even invited next door to watch roping practice on a fun friday night. The home was very comfortable. We had everything we needed to grill and cook everyday.

Great place

Exactly what we were looking for. House was big enough for all 6 of us, with 3 full bathrooms. Clean, quiet, and affordable. Wood for a fire pit and plenty of stars to light up the night sky. Kids enjoyed the air hockey and ping pong while the adults enjoyed the quiet night and beautiful sky.

Quiet Paradise

Great clean comfortable house with great hosts. We went for a UF graduation and it was about a 20 -25 minute drive to campus all thru back roads, it was awesome. Highly recommend if you want tranquility.

You don't want to leave.

This was our second stay at the Clark Farm and just like the first time it was fabulous. The house is exactly what you see in the pictures and the location is more tranquil and peaceful than you can imagine. While the kids were doing their thing, I spent most of my time sitting outside enjoying the view. Robin, Billy and their family are wonderful hosts. We are planning to return next year.

Delightful property

An older home that has been totally and tastefully remodeled with high end upgrades that made our wedding party extremely comfortable. It’s only minutes away to Valley View and Sante Fe River Ranch wedding venues. Highly recommended with many personal touches and the owners were extremely helpful and responsive to last minute questions we had.

Lovely Clark Farm property

The Clark Farm property is lovely! The Clark family is next door and very helpful. Robin and Billy have made a very comfortable, very clean rental in a beautiful country setting. The house very nicely furnished and includes all the necessities needed for a stay. The farm area is outstanding as are the Clark’s horses and Champ their beagle! My husband and I stayed for a month and wished we could have stayed longer. This property is exceptional.

Amazing Venue and great Host

The property was beautiful as well as the home itself. Very clean and tidy with all the essentials you need to cook. The outside cooking area was cozy and we really felt like we were home. Also, who doesn’t want to wake up to horses grazing every morning. We enjoyed getting to meet the owners and interact with the horses. If you are planning a trip to Gainesville, I highly recommend this home! We will be returning customer's in the near future. The owners give you your privacy but also encourage interaction. We absolutely loved our stay!

One of the best

This property and hosts were above exceptional. The home was rented for 3 months and it was definitely a home away from home. The setting is very peaceful and relaxing. We looked forward to seeing horses and of course champ ( the farm dog) daily. The hosts are very accommodating and friendly. We felt very welcomed and never had a worry about anything during our stay. An approximate drive of 30 minutes to Gainesville for work, and back to the peaceful country setting after. Many attractions near by to see and visit. We had a very enjoyable visit and hope to return annually. Highly recommend this property. As a long time VRBO renter, the best hosts we have ever had! Thank you for all the hospitality!

Complete Relaxation

I'm not sure my words will do this property justice. The minute we pulled in we were amazed at how green and beautiful everything was. We spent a lot of time outside just enjoying the scenery and petting the horses. The house was just as described, very comfortable and so were the beds. The owners, Robin and Billy were so nice. We were there for New Years Eve and they invited us over for a get together. We had a great time. If you're looking to take a step back and relax, this is the place. We will definitely be back.

AMAZING!!!

I truly can’t say enough good things about this place. My family LOVED it. The house is super clean, well updated, comfy beds with such soft sheets that I actually checked the brand so I could buy some. The location is stunning. You are really in the center of gorgeous farm country and the horses come up to the fence to greet you as soon as you wake up or come home. They are so friendly and there is even a cute foal. The local river and springs were gorgeous, refreshing and entertaining. It was a perfect getaway for my family who loves on the FL coast. It was like we went to a different state. The owner was super accommodating and easy to work with. We had no issues what so ever and she went above and beyond to make our stay convenient for us. Thank you so much for hosting us.

Would return to the Alachua farmhouse without hesitation

Property is clean and is as pictured. Hostess was excellent. The location is remote, as much as a half mile down a gravel road, then15 minutes or more to restaurants, gasoline, groceries, etc. Easy access to UF, either Interstate or secondary roads. We enjoyed the firepit, the horses, Champ the dog, and the sunsets. I was concerned that it may be a UF Football party house with the ping pong table and the air hockey table, but it shows no signs of being a party house. The bridal suite is a converted garage, nicely done, needs a bit more furniture and hangers/hooks for clothing, but can serve well as a separate BnB efficiency as is (which I'm guessing is the intent). I slept well on the trundle which has a foam mattress and was comfortable. The tap water is excellent, no sulphur, good for drinking and bathing. After a few nights here I began to understand the appeal of living in this part of Florida!

Getaway in Florida

Lovely place everything was great loved our stay. There is a couple of things that need attention in bathroom in hallway. Tub in bath was not the cleanest and toilet needs some work, nothing we couldn't live with just thought I would mention it. also new construction was being done that done away with garage on end of house ,a fact we did not find out until we arrived in Fla ,(glad it did not rain)

Peaceful Haven in Alachua

My husband and I were delighted to spend 5 days at the Clark's tranquil, cozy home. We traveled to FL for a family reunion which entailed numerous roundtrips from Orlando back to Gainesville, so having a peaceful home base was a huge gift!! Robin was quick to respond to questions both beforehand and during our stay, and we felt very welcomed. Their home is just as described – warm, well-equipped and plenty spacious for a family. We loved having access to the washer & dryer, and although we didn’t get a chance to use them, we hope to take advantage of the ping-pong table and air hockey tables during a future visit. My niece & I were overjoyed to get a chance to pet and feed carrots to their beautiful horses (especially “Little Joe”) – what a fun afternoon. Whenever we plan a trip to visit my husband’s side of the family, we will make sure to book way ahead so that we can call the Clark’s house our “home away from home!”

Lovely Setting

Property is located on a working farm so the location is just far enough from city life to enjoy the rural landscape, lovely oak trees, and open spaces. Patio with night lighting and working grill were a bonus.

What a Gem

Stayed here for a look long weekend when my son graduated from UF. Close enough to Gainesville but far enough that we enjoyed peace and quiet and time together as a family. Charming farm house decor, clean and special touches like having banana bread for us. Communication was great and highly recommend!

Lovely, peaceful retreat

This house was such a peaceful spot, we didn't really want to leave. We were in town for a wedding at the C Bar Ranch, and we needed to be close to the venue for ease of coming and going throughout the weekend, and this rental was only 10 minutes away. My kids adored the horses, the dog next door who came over to visit while we were sitting on the porch, and the air hockey table. My husband and I loved the quiet, the porch swing, and the large, well-equipped kitchen. There's even a garage to park in, which was wonderful since the weather was awful, and it was nice not to get soaked unloading the car. We did have some questions and the property owner responded very quickly. The whole house was immaculately clean, and the owner thoughtfully provided muffins and a binder with some helpful info on local restaurants, etc. This was one of the best vacation rentals we've ever stayed in, and if we return to the area (possible, we have family there) then we'd love to stay there again.

Christmas at the Clark’s Farms

Amazing property situated on a beautiful piece of land surrounded by beautiful trees and gorgeous horses to look at. Very specious, clean and beautifully decorated. The walk in shower was perfect for my elderly parents. The owners added a ping pong table and an air hockey table that was a hit with the kids. Looking forward for our next stay at Clark’s Farmhouse Adventures.
