Peaceful and pet friendly, close to hospitals and UF

A straight shot up to UF and a simple right turn, left turn to Shands. We welcome short stay guests but also midterm rentals. Let me explain…

Dad & Mom are retired nurses. This is their home and it's use is their legacy. When my brother and I were young, it wasn't uncommon to find a new face in the house. Mom & Dad were hosts long before short term rentals were a thing! These folks, just discharged from the hospital, would stay with us for a short time before heading home farther away. Mom & Dad would provide them with a little extra nursing care because it was the right thing to do. From their example, we learned hospitality at very young ages.

Btw…Mom & Dad lived here for nearly 40 years. They are now living nearly responsibility free across town in a retirement community! They still volunteer their time to those who need support.

So, more about the house… other than the garage, you have complete access to the whole house and fenced yard.

The television is a 65” smart TV with Chrome Cast. Feel free to log into your own streaming services. We hope you enjoy the many choices offered by this “way-smarter-than-me” TV! We do not offer cable so if you’re looking for a special live athletic event, we suggest Gator Dockside across the street! Try the wings!

We have a fenced in yard for your pet to explore and ask that you pickup after your pet. Also enjoy walking the neighborhood with your leashed pup. At the very back of our neighborhood is a park with equipment, community garden and trails.
