Cottage By UF - Walk to Stadiums, Campus and Midtown

Your UF Getaway: 1 Block from Campus & Stadium - 4 BD Haven

10/10 Excellent

"This house is DARLING! And truthfully, I think they over-estimated how close it is to campus. My children attended swim camp and the swim facilities are adjacent to the football stadium. It took me less than 5 minutes to walk to the stadium/natatorium. It's a spacious house. Could use a little updating but perfectly delightful. The host was super easy to communicate with. One small travel tip - bring a can opener! The one there is uncooperative (or maybe it was just me - ha!). But highly recommend this rental!"

Campus Cottage - Quick Walk to UF

10/10 Excellent

"Cozy Little CottageMy husband and I wanted a place within walking distance to The Swamp and this cottage was perfect! It was easy to find, had a dedicated parking spot off the road and had all of the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. It was a short walk to the UF campus, restaurants and shopping. The hosts, Janine & Ella, were very kind and responsive. 10/10 Great stay!"

3 min walk to UF stadium, Tailgate, 10 guests

10/10 Excellent

"This house was great for large groups! You simply can't beat the location - a quick walk to the stadium and midtown. Our host was super accommodating and even was able to help us score some extra tickets to the football game! The only thing I would note is you do have to move your cars by Saturday morning if you're in town for a gameday, as the host sells parking in the backyard of the house. It wasn't really disruptive to us at all though! "
